Redmi K70 Pro: How much will it cost? How does it compare to the Xiaomi 14?

The Redmi K70 series is scheduled to be released on the evening of November 29th, including the K70E, K70, and K70 Pro models. As the release date approaches, the official has been gradually releasing information about the new phone to build anticipation for the launch event. In the past two days, there has been a lot of information about the K70 Pro.

Redmi K70 Pro

The appearance of the Redmi K70 Pro this time has received unanimous praise, with netizens saying it’s becoming more flagship-like, and it has high recognizability. The camera module of the K70 Pro uses a custom high-transparency glass Deco, with a thickness of 1.3mm, which ensures light and shadow transparency while also ensuring security. The traditional camera deco protective frames on both sides can also be removed, making the back design look very clean. On the front, the K70 Pro body narrows down to 74.9mm, making it easily gripable with one hand. The material has been upgraded to a metal middle frame, removing the screen bracket and filling glue, greatly enhancing the exquisite feel.

Redmi K70 Pro

In terms of specifications, the K70 Pro is equipped with the third-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, supplemented by the “revolutionary cooling system” – Ice Sealing Cooling. In addition, leaked information suggests that the K70 Pro is equipped with a 2K direct screen, and both the main and secondary cameras have been upgraded. It starts with 12GB of RAM, and it uses LPDDR5X+UFS 4.0.

In terms of price, the starting price of the previous generation K60 Pro 12GB version was 3,899 yuan. The K70 Pro has been upgraded in terms of performance, design, screen, and imaging. Considering the increase in memory price, it would already be considered good if it can maintain the original price. The starting price of the K70 Pro is estimated to be around 3,899 yuan, and there might be a slight discount if there are any surprises, but logically, it might be slightly more expensive.

For reference, the starting price of the Xiaomi 14 is also 3,999 yuan, with 8GB+256GB of memory. If the starting price of the K70 Pro is really around 3,899 yuan, then it would be very difficult for Xiaomi fans to choose. As we all know, the Xiaomi 14 is also very powerful in terms of its product strength, with sales exceeding one million units since its launch.

Xiaomi 14 price

However, even if the pricing difference is not significant, the highlights of the two phones are also different. The Xiaomi 14 is the world’s first phone to debut with the third-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform. It is equipped with a 6.36-inch OLED flexible screen with a resolution of 1200×2670 pixels and a peak brightness of 3000nit. It features customized Leica optical Summilux lens and the Leica 75mm floating telephoto lens, which can provide a professional Leica imaging experience and undoubtedly have better imaging performance than the K70 Pro. On the other hand, the K70 Pro is equipped with the Ice Seal cooling system and is more geared towards gaming. Its performance tuning may be more aggressive. Moreover, it also has larger memory for the same price, making it a good choice for gaming enthusiasts.

Which model of the Honor 100 series offers the best value for money?

On the evening of November 23, Honor held a new product launch conference and officially released the Honor 100 series models, including Honor 100 and Honor 100 Pro.

Honor 100 Pro

In terms of configuration, the Honor 100 series is equipped with IMX906 OIS portrait main camera, Honor Oasis eye protection screen, 5000mAh high-energy density battery, 100W super fast charging, self-developed RF enhancement chip C1, and up to 16GB of RAM for the entire series.

The main differences between the two phones mainly lie in the processor and some details. In terms of the processor, the Honor 100 is the debut of the third-generation Snapdragon 7 chipset. The platform adopts TSMC’s 4nm process technology, with a CPU design of 4 big cores and 4 small cores, consisting of 1 core clocked at 2.63 GHz, 3 cores clocked at 2.40 GHz, and 4 cores clocked at 1.80 GHz. Its AnTuTu score is approximately 870,000. On the other hand, the 100 Pro is equipped with the second-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship mobile platform, with an AnTuTu score exceeding 1.34 million.

Honor 100/100 Pro AnTuTu score

In terms of imaging, the Honor 100 Pro is equipped with IMX906 OIS main camera and also a 50x zoom optical image stabilization lens. The front cameras of the two models are also different: the standard version has a 50-megapixel single-lens level portrait lens, while the Pro version features the Sony IMX816 single-lens level portrait lens, which supports autofocus. In addition, it also supports single-lens level light sensitivity and fantastic capturing of both front and rear scenes.

Honor 100 Pro

As for the display, both models use the Honor Oasis Eye Protection Screen. However, the Pro version also supports natural color display, 360° adaptive brightness adjustment, and has passed the TUV Rheinland Global Eye Protection 3.0 certification from Germany, achieving an all-day eye protection standard. In other aspects, the Honor 100 Pro supports 66W wireless super-fast charging and air gesture, which the standard version does not.

Honor 100 series

In terms of price, the Honor 100 starts at 2499 yuan, while the Honor 100 Pro starts at 3399 yuan, making it 900 yuan more expensive than the former. Overall, the main configuration of the Honor 100 is sufficient, and it has a strong competitiveness in the 2000 yuan price range. However, the Honor 100 Pro has a better processor and is more detailed in various aspects, which can bring a more intimate, versatile, and fun user experience. If the budget allows, you can directly choose the Honor 100 Pro.

Recently, OPPO Reno11 series, Honor 100 series, Redmi K70 series, realme GT5 Pro, and other phones have either been officially announced or are on their way to be released. But Huawei seems to be silent.

Will the nova12 series debut at this event?

Huawei nova12 render

Unfortunately, it seems that it won’t.

Now there are only 4 days left until November 28th, excluding the two days of the weekend, there are only 2 days left until the official event. Currently, Huawei has announced several new products that will be unveiled at the event, including Huawei MateBook D 16, Huawei Full-House Intelligence, Huawei MatePad Pro 11-inch, and the Smart World S7, among others. If the nova12 series is also going to debut at this event, based on the significance of this series, Huawei should have already started to generate hype for the new device. The fact that there hasn’t been any indicates otherwise.

Smart World S7 and Huawei Full Scene Conference

According to multiple sources, the Huawei nova 12 series is expected to be released in December. The leaks indicate that Huawei will have two major terminal launch events this year. So in addition to the event on November 28th, Huawei may also have a terminal launch event in December. If everything goes as expected, the nova 12 series should be released then.

It is reported that the Huawei nova 12 series supports Lingdong Island, adopts a vertical module design, is equipped with the Kirin 5G chip, supports satellite communication, and is enhanced with starlight technology. It is worth looking forward to.

Should you buy a Meizu phone? Worried about after-sales issues

Although Meizu has been acquired by the wealthy Geely, and money is not a problem, many netizens still worry about Meizu’s after-sales service.

Perhaps considering everyone’s concerns, Meizu has now launched the “1 yuan pre-order, enjoy 36 months of quality assurance” service for multiple new models. Take the Meizu 21 for example, by participating in this activity, not only can you enjoy the benefits of a 36-month quality assurance, but you also get support for only exchanging, not repairing the new phone for 180 days, subsidies for buying new phones by trading in old ones, exclusive customer service, and priority shipping with SF Express. I believe this can dispel everyone’s concerns about after-sales service.

Meizu 21 “1 yuan pre-order” benefits package

Looking at it this way, it’s still worth it. If you are interested in getting a Meizu new phone, you can participate in this activity regardless of whether you ultimately buy it or not because it’s only 1 yuan, so the “cost” is not that high. If you don’t participate in this activity, according to the information on the Meizu official website, Meizu phones are eligible for a 7-day no reason return (the goods must be intact and all accessories must be complete, the shipping fee for returns needs to be borne by the user), a 15-day replacement guarantee, one year of free warranty, and extended warranty services.

In order to allow Meizu users to buy new phones with peace of mind and no longer worry about after-sales issues, at the Meizu Lynk Infinite Ecology Conference on March 30th this year, Meizu announced that it will increase the number of after-sales service centers to 400 by 2023, covering 40 cities with VIP door-to-door service. On November 23rd, Meizu announced that after 8 months, the number of authorized service centers has increased from 100+ to 400+, with VIP door-to-door service covering 40 cities. This has become the solid backing for the 36-month super-long quality assurance of Meizu 21, allowing you to use your new phone without worries.

Meizu service

Overall, Meizu’s after-sales service may have had some problems in the past, but with Geely taking over Meizu, it is clear that Meizu’s service is gradually improving. If you are a Meizu fan and want to get a Meizu phone, you can participate in the new phone pre-order activity for only one yuan, and there shouldn’t be any major after-sales issues.

How much will the Redmi K70 Pro sell for? How does it compare to the Xiaomi 14?

The Redmi K70 series will be officially announced on November 29th at 7 PM, including the K70E, K70, and K70 Pro models. As the release date approaches, the official website has been gradually releasing more information about the new phone to generate excitement for the launch event. In the past two days, there have been more announcements regarding the K70 Pro.

Redmi K70 Pro

The appearance of the Redmi K70 Pro has received unanimous praise, with netizens saying that it looks more and more like a flagship smartphone and has a high degree of recognition. The K70 Pro’s camera module uses a custom high-transparency glass Deco, which is 1.3mm thick. This not only ensures the transparency of light and shadow but also ensures safety. In addition, the traditional protective frames on both sides of the camera deco have been removed, making the back design look very clean. On the front, the K70 Pro’s body narrows down to 74.9mm, making it easy to hold with one hand. The material has been upgraded to a metal middle frame, removing screen brackets and filling adhesives, significantly enhancing its exquisite feel.

Redmi K70 Pro

In terms of specifications, the K70 Pro is equipped with the third-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, coupled with a “groundbreaking cooling system” – Ice-Seal Cooling. In addition, leaks suggest that the K70 Pro will feature a 2K direct screen, a comprehensive upgrade of its primary and secondary cameras, and a starting memory capacity of 12GB, using LPDDR5X+UFS 4.0.

In terms of price, the starting price of the previous generation K60 Pro 12GB version was 3899 yuan. The K70 Pro has seen all-round upgrades in terms of performance, appearance, screen, and imaging, along with the impact of memory price increases. If it can maintain the original price, it would still be considered very good. The starting price of the K70 Pro is estimated to be around 3899 yuan, and if there are any surprises, it might be a little cheaper. However, by all indications, it might be slightly more expensive.

For reference, the starting price of the Xiaomi 14 is also 3999 yuan, with a starting memory of 8GB+256GB. If the starting price of the K70 Pro is indeed around 3899 yuan, it would be very difficult for Xiaomi fans to choose. As we all know, the Xiaomi 14 has a strong product reputation and has sold over a million units since its launch.

Xiaomi 14 price

However, even if there is not much difference in pricing, the two phones have their own highlights. The Xiaomi 14 is the world’s first smartphone to use the third-generation Snapdragon 8 mobile platform, equipped with a 6.36-inch OLED flexible screen with a resolution of 1200×2670 pixels and a peak brightness of 3000nit. It also features a customized Leica optical Summilux lens, a customized light and shadow hunter 900 imaging sensor, and a Leica 75mm floating telephoto lens, which can provide a professional Leica imaging experience. Its image performance is sure to be better than that of the K70 Pro. On the other hand, the K70 Pro is equipped with the Ice-Seal Cooling system and is more geared towards gaming. Its performance tuning might be more aggressive. Furthermore, it also offers a larger memory capacity at the same price, making it a suitable choice for gaming enthusiasts.
