The Redmi K20 starts at Rs 21,999 in India, but my review unit was the higher-end model that costs Rs 23,999. For the price, the phone offers reliable performance, good cameras, stunning design and much, much more which should make it an easy recommendation. But, as much as I like the phone, I`ve come to expect too much from the brand when it comes to pricing. While the Redmi K20 is a good phone, the cheaper Realme X (review), which is a stellar handset in its own right, comes across as better value for money. Xiaomi`s own POCO F1, which, at least on paper, should be better than the Redmi K20 in terms of performance, though cameras and design are another story altogether.Given its pricing, the Redmi K20 gets squeezed between cheaper rivals like the Realme X, and its own Pro series sibling, making it difficult for me to recommend it wholeheartedly.
