AnTuTu serves as a prevalent benchmark for gauging a smartphone’s comprehensive performance. This assessment covers various aspects, including the device’s CPU, GPU, RAM, Storage, and User Experience (UX). Even though there’s more to a smartphone than these things, if you’re a gamer or someone who wants a powerful phone, here are the top 10 best-performing Android phones in August 2023 according to AnTuTu.

Top 10 premium smartphones on AnTuTu for August 2023

With the recent release of the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro, the brand has claimed the title of the top-performing smartphone in August 2023, boasting an impressive score of 1,648,735 points. The kicker is that it isn’t actually a flagship smartphone, and is much more suited to be called a flagship killer (and our review team agrees). It starts at ¥2,999 (~$410), and the 24GB + 1TB model tested by AnTuTu costs ¥3,999 (~$550). The Ace 2 Pro is incredibly popular among Chinese customers, to the point where the brand is struggling to meet the high demand.

The real standout here is clearly the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, which is doing most of the hard work. What’s intriguing is that all the phones in the top 10 list are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, including the iQOO 11S, which is in second place with just a 3,342-point difference, achieving a score of 1,648,735 points. Following that, we have devices like the RedMagic 8S Pro+,iQOO 11, Vivo X90 Pro+, OnePlus 11, Realme GT5, iQOO 11, Vivo X Fold 2, and Oppo Find X6 Pro.

What’s interesting is that the recently launched Redmi K60 Ultra is nowhere to be found on this list. This device launched in August with the latest Dimensity 9200+ chipset, boasting a self-proclaimed AnTuTu score of 1,774,714 points. Maybe the device will be featured in the next month’s list. For the time being, you can check out our review of the Redmi K60 Ultra, where we have pitted it against the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro in every scenario including performance benchmarks.

The post OnePlus Ace 2 Pro: Flagship Killer Overthrows Flagships in AnTuTu Performance Scores for August 2023 appeared first on Gizmochina.

I know, you guys have been waiting for this K60 Ultra Full review for a bit long. In this video, you’ll not only see all about the K60 Ultra, but you’ll also see who’s better compared to the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro. So let’s get right to it without further ado.

Design

I would prefer the design of the K60 Ultra over the unchanged Ace 2 Pro. As I said in the Unboxing video, the K60 Ultra looks more premium than the Pro version. And this white back panel looks a bit like ceramic, which makes me not believe it’s a Redmi phone.

Everyone has a unique taste in design, but feature-wise, the K60 Ultra is not as good as the Ace 2 Pro. About the vibration motor and the placement of the fingerprint, the Ace 2 Pro wins effortlessly. But that’s what you deserve for paying $55 more.

Display

The K60 Ultra is cheap, but the screen doesn’t look like what a $360 phone should have, even the more expensive Xiaomi 13 and Ace 2 Pro can’t beat it. It’s top-notch in terms of refresh rate, peak brightness, and PWM dimming.

The high-frequency PWM dimming and DC can automatically switch based on brightness, this setting doesn’t need to be turned on manually. One tip about the screen brightness of the Xiaomi family: although they all have very high peak brightness if you manually adjust it to the highest, it is probably only about 500 nit, and you won’t feel that it’s as bright as it can be. It’s only when watching HDR video under the sunlight will force K60 Ultra reaches its peak at around 2400 nit, which is closer to its advertised 2600 nit.

Unlike the Ace 2 Pro, the K60 Ultra is not operatable when there’s water on the screen, but it is IP68 certified. There are no rainbow lines when you look at the phone at some angles. And most importantly, it’s a straight screen, I’ll have to admit, I prefer a straight screen a bit more.

So apart from the resolution not reaching 2K and the bezels not being narrow at all, the screen of the K60 Ultra is unbeatable.

Performance & Gaming

You guys must be wondering if the Dimensity 9200+ can actually beat the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2, and I’m curious too. Looking at the Benchmark, it doesn’t look like there’s much of a gap between it and the 8 Gen 2 anymore.

Don’t get too happy so quickly, I mean MTK’s chips are famous for peak performance, but it’s always the heat that needs to be worried about. During the stress test sessions, we can see that the K60 Ultra is trying to do its best very hard. It would love to maintain full power output, but it can’t. It’s at the same level as Ace 2 Pro.

In the gaming session, the K60 Ultra performed almost the same as the stress test. After 10 minutes of playing Genshin, it tried very hard to keep the frame rate at 60fps, but it would immediately overheat and the frame rate would suddenly drop. Although the maximum resolution is a little bit higher than the Ace 2 Pro, the stability of the frame rate is more important, it seems that Redmi still doesn’t know the truth: sometimes knowing how to give up is a wise choice.

It seems like this is the first time in a whole long history that the Redmi phone comes with a frame insertion chip. Like the Ace 2 Pro, videos and some games on K60 Ultra can have the display frame rate increased, but there’s latency as well. But even if the phone has become very hot, it still enables frame interpolation for games, which is better than the Ace 2 Pro. Overall, if you’re a heavy gamer, the Ace 2 Pro will probably be better for you.

Camera

The K60 Ultra’s camera isn’t as good as Xiaomi’s flagship’s, though there’s a bit of Leica style in the color tones. Most of the time the photos have very high contrast, with dark areas being very dark and not looking as bright as the Ace 2 Pro’s photos.

The color temperature is accurate in most scenes, like this photo of the lamp, it’s yellow and the Ace 2 Pro’s shot is white. When shooting food with Ace 2 Pro, photos look better, the ones taken by K60 Ultra look like the food is a bit burnt. Other than what I just showed you, they perform almost identically in other parts. It’s hard for me to say which one is better, it’s more of a color style difference.

The K60 Ultra supports up to 4K 60fps for the main camera and up to 1080p 30fps for the ultra-wide camera. The video quality of the main camera is about the same for both, they are quite good. The ultra wide-angle cameras on them are also similar, both are quite bad. The only difference is that the K60 Ultra’s ultra-wide camera’s purple-fringing issue is a bit more obvious.

Battery & Charging

The 120W wired charging doesn’t look as good as the 150W Ace 2 Pro, but a full charge takes both of them about 20 minutes. The K60 Ultra, however, does not support wireless charging, which is not as good as the K60 Pro or the standard version.

The battery capacity didn’t surprise us, but the battery life did. It’s about the same as an 8 Gen 2 phone in daily use, which is good enough for MTK.

Regarding the speakers, the Ace 2 Pro wins by having a larger soundstage. Instruments are better differentiated from each other, while the K60 Ultra is very average.

Conclusion

The K60 Ultra is cheaper, but it has a great display and isn’t that bad in other aspects. The Ace 2 Pro’s strong points are the performance and the vibration motor. Both phones are actually worth buying, it all depends on what you need. They don’t beat each other on this battlefield, they are both winners.

The post Redmi K60 Ultra Review (vs. OnePlus Ace 2 Pro): There’s no losers here appeared first on Gizmochina.

Recently, the Redmi K60 Ultra went official in China as the most premium Redmi-branded smartphone to date. Despite featuring high-end features, the device carries a cheaper price tag than regular flagships.

This makes it a flagship-killer smartphone. Although there are several such handsets from fellow Chinese brands, the K60 Ultra offers certain features that make it unique.

For the unaware, the Redmi K Ultra lineup was never like this. The previous (first) two products in the series were merely an extension of the Redmi K family for the second half of the year.

However, this time around, the brand pulled off a winner. The latest Redmi K60 Ultra ticks almost all the boxes for being a flagship phone.

Let’s go through how this device came to be by taking a look at its predecessors as well as itself.

The series kicks off

The Redmi K30 Ultra was the first phone in the Redmi K Ultra lineup. It was announced at Xiaomi’s 10-year anniversary launch conference in August 2020.

It was a companion device for Mi 10 Ultra, the first-ever Xiaomi Ultra smartphone. It was not positioned as a premium product since it was actually cheaper than the Redmi K30 Pro.

The K30 Ultra differed from the K30 Pro in two aspects. It was powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 1000+ SoC instead of a Snapdragon 865 chip. Secondly, it had a 120Hz AMOLED display, making it the first Redmi K series handset with a high refresh rate OLED screen.

It is the only Redmi K Ultra phone with a pop-up camera since its siblings had it. Anyways, the best thing about it was its ¥1,999 (~$275) starting price. No other smartphone offered such a compelling feature set at this price.

Successor sets a trend

There was no Redmi K40 Ultra as the brand skipped a year. The successor arrived as Redmi K50 Ultra in August 2022.

Once again, the Ultra had a different chipset and display, in addition to a non-identical design. The handset featured a more powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Plus Gen SoC instead of MediaTek Dimensity 8100 and Dimensity 9000 chips like vanilla and pro models, respectively.

Though the chipset was better than its siblings, we could not say the same for the display. It flaunted a 1.5K OLED screen instead of a QHD panel. But it started a revolution of affordable 1.5K display phones from the Oppo group (Oppo, Realme, and OnePlus).

As for pricing, the Redmi K50 Ultra was not affordable like the Redmi K30 Ultra. It was introduced at the same price as the Redmi K50 Pro. This way consumers had an option of either going with Qualcomm chip and lower resolution display or MediaTek SoC and higher resolution screen.

Third time’s the charm

The Redmi K60 Ultra also comes with a different design, chip, and display when compared to its siblings. In addition to these differences, it also arrives with some features that are mostly only found on proper flagships.

The device is powered by a MediaTek Dimensity 9200 Plus chip instead of the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets found inside its siblings. It is also Xiaomi’s first 24GB RAM smartphone.

Further, the display retains the 1.5K resolution from its predecessor compared to the QHD+ panel on K60 and K60 Pro. But this screen not only offers a faster 144Hz refresh rate but also 2,880Hz PWM frequency and 2,600 nits local peak brightness level.

Apart from the flagship-level bright display, the Redmi K60 Ultra is even IP68-rated for dust and water resistance. It is the first Redmi phone with proper ingress protection.

Finally, it is Xiaomi’s first handset to come with five years of guaranteed software support. The product is said to receive four Android updates and five years of security updates.

Regardless of all the aforementioned upgrades over its predecessors and siblings, the Redmi K60 Ultra is actually more affordable than them. It starts at just ¥2,599 (~$355).

Thus, in the third generation, the Redmi K Ultra lineup has upgraded to an almost proper flagship smartphone status despite carrying an affordable price tag.

The post Redmi K60 Ultra is nearly a flagship at mid-range price: A brief history of Redmi K Ultra lineup appeared first on Gizmochina.

Redmi K60 Ultra debuted earlier this month and it is by far the most premium smartphone from the Xiaomi sub-brand. It brings a powerful processor, an immersive display, and is even IP68-rated for dust and water resistance. Not just hardware, Xiaomi has also made sure to give the device top-notch software support. Redmi K60 Ultra will receive 5 years of updates and 4 major OS releases.

Xiaomi is not typically known for its long software support, but the company is stepping up its game with the new Redmi K60 Ultra. The phone will be the first in Xiaomi’s lineup to receive four major Android updates and five years of security patches. The Redmi K60 Ultra has also been added to the first batch of devices eligible for the MIUI 15 update, meaning it will be one of the first Xiaomi phones to receive the latest software.

The Redmi K60 Ultra is currently only available in China, and the software update promise is also limited to the country. However, the phone is rumored to be launched globally as the Xiaomi 13T Pro. If this is true, the company could extend the update promise to the international market as well.

Longer software support is always appreciated and we give Xiaomi a thumbs up for taking this step. However, we also hope that the company will improve its update delivery pace. After all, what good is a long software support promise if users have to wait months or even years to receive updates?

The Redmi K60 Ultra is a smartphone that punches well above its weight. As we noted in our hands-on, it is not the best phone out there, but it is unbeatable at its price point.

In May, Poco unveiled the Poco F5 and the Poco F5 Pro flagship phones. While the F5 is available in India and other markets, the F5 Pro was not released in India. A fresh development reveals that the company could be working on a new F-series flagship phone.

Yesterday, at the POCO Partners SEA Forum in Bangkok, Thailand, Poco confirmed a key detail about its next flagship phone. The brand confirmed that it will be launching a new phone featuring the Dimensity 9200 Plus chipset.

Poco did not confirm the name of its upcoming D9200+ phone. Since most of the recent Poco phones are rebranded versions of the Redmi / Xiaomi phones available in other markets, it is likely that the said device could also be a rebranded edition of an existing Redmi / Xiaomi phone.

Redmi has recently released the Redmi K60 Ultra in the Chinese market. A tweaked version of the phone offering better cameras will debut as the Xiaomi 13T Pro in the global market. There is a possibility that the K60 Ultra may have a global variant with Poco branding.

Since the specs are good enough to consider it an F-series phone, it is likely that the device could be called the Poco F5 GT. Here is a look at the specs of the Redmi K60 Ultra.

Redmi K60 Ultra specifications

The Redmi K60 Ultra has a 6.67-inch OLED panel that offers a 1.5K resolution and a 144Hz refresh rate. The Dimensity 9200 Plus chip-powered phone ships with up to 24 GB of LPDDR5x RAM, up to 1 TB of UFS 4.0 storage, and a 5,000mAh battery with 120W charging. It has a 50-megapixel (OIS) + 2-megapixel (ultra-wide) + 2-megapixel (macro) triple camera unit and a 20-megapixel front camera. It runs on MIUI 14-based Android 13 and has an under-display fingerprint scanner.

The Xiaomi 13T Pro, which is expected to debut on Sept. 1, will pack the same specs. However, it is said to be equipped with a 50-megapixel (Sony IMX707, main) + 50-megapixel (telephoto) + 12-megapixel (ultra-wide) triple camera unit.

Xiaomi launched the MIX Fold 3 (unboxing and first impressions) and Redmi K60 Ultra earlier this week. Both devices went for sale in the home market yesterday. Now, the brand has announced the numbers of the first sale of both the newly launched products on the microblogging platform Weibo. The company has achieved a remarkable sales feat with the MIX Fold 3 and Redmi K60 Ultra.

Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 and Redmi K60 Ultra are a huge success

Shortly after the MIX Fold 3 and Redmi K60 Ultra went on their first sale yesterday, Xiaomi announced that both devices are a great success. The company sold twice the number of third-generation foldable phone compared to its predecessor. Xiaomi did not announce the exact number of units it sold, however, the margin is said to be 2.25 times more than the MIX Fold 2. 

The Xiaomi MIX Fold 3’s impressive sales numbers could be attributed to the light and thin design, improved Leica branded cameras, and a new waterdrop hinge that is more durable than its predecessor. It also packs upgrades in other aspects. Notably, the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3’s pricing is the same as the last year’s MIX Fold 2 except for the bumped-up RAM configurations (barring the base variant). 

As for the Redmi K60 Ultra, Xiaomi said that it sold 220,000 units of the smartphone in just five minutes of the first sale. It surpassed the first sale numbers of previous Redmi K-series Ultra models and also set a new benchmark. 

For those wondering, if the Xiaomi MIX Fold 3 will arrive in the global markets, the answer is sadly no. It will still be limited to China. Meanwhile, the Redmi K60 Ultra is likely expected to debut as the Xiaomi 13T Pro in international markets.

When I saw that the Redmi K60 Ultra was only selling for about $350, I realized one thing: THAT FLAGSHIP KILLER IT’S BACK! It’s not the best phone out there, but who can beat it at this price point? So I ordered this K60 Ultra right away. Let’s unbox it and talk about my first impressions of it by the way.

Unboxing

The packaging is unchanged for the K60 Ultra, still a black box with oversized lettering.

The accessories box didn’t surprise us either. Card pin, manual, and warranty card. The phone case is still a transparent soft case.

The phone was wrapped in a very thin plastic bag. Put it aside for a moment to look at the accessories underneath.

A cable and a charger. The charger writes 120W, which is the same as the K60 Pro. That’s all the accessories.

Hands-on

We purchased the white version. You can never go wrong with a classic color combination of a white back panel with a silver frame. Even though the frame is made of plastic, I can live with it as long as the price is cheap enough.

The design of the K60 Ultra is less like the K60 family and more like a member of the Xiaomi 13 series. Because the camera module has gotten wider, it’s gotten better looking instead. I wouldn’t be too critical of a performance-focused phone in terms of design, after all that’s not its strong point.

When the screen lights up, you can see why it’s called the Ultra. It has a lesser ring of bumps around the screen than the Pro and Standard, giving it a nicer look.

The resolution isn’t quite at the 2k level, but it’s also a lot brighter than the rest of the K60 series, and the refresh rate is slightly higher. Considering it’s $140 cheaper than the K60 Pro, a screen like this is excellent.

Like the K60 Pro, the main camera uses an IMX 800 sensor. While we can’t expect the Redmi’s camera to be that good, well at least the sensor is a good one and it should be more than enough for recording your life.

Since it’s a K-series, there’s no doubt that performance is its strong suit. MediaTek’s flagship chip isn’t weak at all, but I’m not sure if the Dimensity 9200+ can really win over the Snapdragon 8 Gen 2. Judging from the BenchMark scores, plus the help of the frame-insertion chip, it does have the potential to beat the 8 Gen 2 in gaming.

Because of the short time we’ve got this phone, we haven’t done any more gaming tests yet. So stay tuned for our full review of the K60 Ultra, and I’ll give you the final answer.

While the K60 Ultra gained our favor with its super low price, but by the time you see this video, OnePlus has also released their new phone. I’m not sure if it’s a better buy than the K60 Ultra. At least until August 16, the K60 Ultra is the best flagship killer out there. Of course, we’ll be doing a REVIEW of the OnePlus Ace 2 Pro, so remember to subscribe to our YouTube channel.

After months of anticipation, the Redmi K60 Ultra was finally launched in China on August 14. The phone went on sale on August 16, and Redmi announced that the K60 Ultra sold more than 220000 units in just 5 minutes! This is a new record for phone sales in the 4,000 yuan price segment on JD.com/Tmall in 2023. 

Redmi K60 Ultra Sales Record

Lu Weibing, President of Xiaomi Group, celebrated the Redmi K60 Ultra’s sales record on Weibo, “From 2599, who dares to fight!” The sales numbers are impressive, with 220,000 units sold in just 5 minutes! This means that almost 733 units were sold every second, or 44000 units were sold every minute. The K60 Ultra starts at 12GB+256GB for 2,599 yuan, which considering the specs is very cost-effective.

Xiaomi is expected to launch the flagship Redmi K60 Ultra any moment for now even though the exact launch date is still unknown. The device has appeared in quite a number of leaks in recent times. The latest leak is that of a third-party protective case that was shared by popular Weibo tipster Digital Chat Station. The tipster mentioned that this phone case is similar to the design which he posted back in May.

The design schematic diagram of the Redmi K60 Ultra released by the Digital Chat station in May reveals that the back of the phone will have a rectangular camera module consisting of two larger cameras, a smaller camera, and a flash. The front of the phone will feature a narrow bezel-centered punch-hole screen.

However, the protective casing shared features a distinct opening around the power button area. Some speculate that the Redmi K60 Ultra may have a side fingerprint sensor, while others express skepticism and suggest that the unveiled phone case is made of PP (polypropylene) material.

Previous reports suggest that the Redmi K60 Ultra will be equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 9200+ processor. The flagship smartphone is also expected to come with a 1.5K narrow-frame AMOLED display supplied by Huaxing. The phone will have a metal frame, a 50-megapixel primary rear camera lens, and a built-in 5000mAh battery.
