Recently, vivo’s new phone, the vivo X90s, was officially released. The 8GB+256GB version is priced at 3999 yuan, the 12GB+256GB version is priced at 4299 yuan, and the 12GB+512GB version is priced at 4699 yuan, which is exactly the same as the current price of the Xiaomi 13. So, the question is, with the same price, should you choose the vivo X90s or the Xiaomi 13?

vivo X90s price

First of all, in terms of appearance, there is a big difference in style between the two flagship phones. The Xiaomi 13 is equipped with a 6.36-inch ultra-sensory straight screen, with straight edges, which looks more fashionable and sharp, and is the preferred choice of small screen and straight screen users. The vivo X90s is equipped with a 6.78-inch ultra-retina eye protection curved screen, with a thin body design and four colors: Qingyang, Gaobai, Zhijing, and Huaxia Red, which looks more beautiful and generous.

Xiaomi 13

In terms of processor configuration, the Xiaomi 13 is equipped with the second-generation Snapdragon 8 flagship mobile platform, using TSMC’s 4nm process, and is equipped with the full-blooded LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0, with excellent performance. The vivo X90s adopts the new Tianji 9200+ processor, using TSMC’s second-generation 4nm process, with CPU three-cluster eight-core frequency, and AnTuTu score exceeds 1.65 million. It is also equipped with LPDDR5X and UFS 4.0 combination. Although both phones are equipped with top processors from Qualcomm and MediaTek, their performance is at the top level.

In terms of imaging, the Xiaomi 13 has three Leica master lenses on the back, including a 50 million pixel Leica professional optical main camera, a 12 million pixel Leica ultra-wide-angle lens, and a 10 million pixel Leica telephoto lens, which can improve the lens quality from the source and make the picture pure and transparent.

The vivo X90s is equipped with a 50 million pixel IMX866 VCS bionic spectral main camera, a 50mm fixed-focus portrait camera, and a 12 million pixel IMX663 ultra-low distortion ultra-wide-angle lens. All three cameras have passed the Zeiss T* coating certification, and the picture is pure and clear. In addition, vivo has brought a new upgraded vivo memory color system this time, providing three kinds of vivo texture colors: rich, delicate, and personalized, which can bring more textured photos.

How to choose between vivo X90s and Xiaomi 13?

As the saying goes, “Different strokes for different folks.” In a poll organized by a blogger, the number of people choosing Xiaomi 13 and vivo X90s is almost evenly split. Although Xiaomi 13 and vivo X90s have the same price, their configurations are completely different, and the manufacturers’ tuning of the phones is also different. If you prefer a small, flat-screen phone, like Leica colors, and lean towards the Snapdragon flagship mobile platform, then choose Xiaomi 13; if you prefer a curved screen, good tactile feel, and love the appearance of vivo X90s, then go for the latter.

Is the RedmiBook 15E laptop priced attractively and worth buying?

Recently, Xiaomi launched a new laptop – RedmiBook 15E, with a starting price of 2899 yuan, which attracted a lot of attention from netizens. On June 29th, the laptop had its first sale, and its affordable price made many people exclaim how good it was, but some netizens frowned when they looked at the specifications. Is the RedmiBook 15E worth buying for less than 3000 yuan?

RedmiBook 15E

Let’s start with the conclusion: the cost-effectiveness of the 2899 yuan i5-11320H/16GB/512GB version is indeed high. The laptop is also equipped with a 15.6-inch large screen, which is very competitive in this price range. If you have a limited budget for buying a computer, you can consider this version. ********

However, the initial price of the i7-11390H/16GB/512GB version is 3299 yuan, which will face challenges from some competitors that come with Ryzen 5 5600H or 12th-generation Core i5-1240P at this price range, and its disadvantages gradually become apparent.

For example, the RedmiBook 15E is made entirely of plastic material, lacking texture. The screen resolution is only 1080P, and the chin and bezels are a bit wide, and it also has a low color gamut of 45% NTSC.

RedmiBook 15E

In addition, although this laptop is wide, it still does not come with a numeric keypad, nor does it support backlighting. It only has 3 USB-A ports and no USB-C, so it can only connect to one external monitor. The RedmiBook 15E comes with 16GB DDR4-3200 onboard memory and only has 1 M.2 hard drive slot, leaving no room for upgrades.

Furthermore, there is not much difference in performance between the i5-11320H and i7-11390H. Both chips have 4 cores and 8 threads, and both integrate Intel Iris Xe 96 GPU. The difference lies in the cache size, with 8MB and 12MB respectively, and the maximum turbo frequencies are 4.5GHz and 5.0GHz respectively. However, there is a price difference of 400 yuan between them.

In conclusion, if it is priced at only 2899 yuan, then these are not considered major flaws. If it is priced at 3299 yuan, the cost-effectiveness is just average.

Is it really necessary for Android phones to have 24GB of RAM?

Phone manufacturers are really going overboard, now they are focusing on memory. Especially since this year, flagship phones basically start with 8GB+256GB of memory. If there are still phone manufacturers that start with 128GB of memory, they will definitely be criticized. Recently, the Red Magic 8S Pro series announced the world’s first 24GB of RAM. Not only the Red Magic 8S Pro series, but it is also rumored that the upcoming OnePlus Ace2 Pro will also be equipped with 24GB of RAM. Is it really necessary for Android phones to have 24GB of RAM?

Generally speaking, a larger RAM can provide better multitasking capabilities. If the RAM is small, the phone may frequently release some applications from the RAM, causing applications to reload and stutter when released. A larger RAM can accommodate more applications, reducing the number of reloads and improving multitasking efficiency.

Secondly, a larger RAM can provide better application performance. Some large applications or games may require more memory space to load and run. If the phone has a small RAM, these applications may not be able to load completely into the memory, resulting in decreased performance or crashes. A larger RAM can provide enough space to accommodate these applications, ensuring that they can run properly.

Lastly, a larger RAM can also provide better system stability. When the phone has a small RAM, the system may frequently kill some background applications. Although this can free up memory, it can also cause background applications to reload and data loss. A larger RAM can reduce the occurrence of this situation, maintain the survival state of background applications, and improve system stability.

Multiple smartphone manufacturers are preparing to launch phones with 24GB of RAM

However, the RAM is not the only factor that affects phone performance. The smoothness of the phone usage experience is also affected by factors such as the processor, storage space, and software optimization. If the phone has a low-performance processor or insufficient storage space, even if the RAM is large, it cannot fully leverage its advantages and cannot bring an excellent user experience.

In addition, for most users, 8GB, 12GB, or 16GB of RAM is already sufficient to meet daily needs. Unless it is a professional user or has high requirements for phone performance, then 24GB of RAM may bring a better user experience. Moreover, the larger the memory, the higher the cost, and ultimately these costs will be passed on to consumers.

In addition, many users are worried that the increasing amount of memory on smartphones will “spoil” the apps. Nowadays, many apps are getting bigger and bigger, but after updates, there are only a few useful features, resulting in a larger size. If apps continue to grow without restraint, regardless of the amount of memory on the device, it will become unbearable after a period of use.

Is it necessary to buy a tablet for playing mobile games?

I don’t think so.

As the name implies, mobile games are games played on mobile phones, which are naturally more compatible with phones. Although many mobile games have been adapted for tablets, players who have used both devices will have the same experience, that is, playing games on a phone is much better than on a tablet.

Firstly, phones are lighter. Compared to tablets, phones are lighter and smaller, making it more suitable for players to hold for a long time. Nowadays, playing a mobile game casually takes about 20 minutes, and if you use a tablet for a long time, your hands will get tired. If you play with the tablet placed on a table or other surfaces, it also limits the player’s posture. It’s better to play with a phone, you can play sitting, lying down, or however you want, it’s more flexible.

Secondly, if you have been playing games for a long time and suddenly switch to a tablet, it will feel very uncomfortable, and you will need time to adapt to the new device, which will greatly affect your gaming experience. Even if you adapt to it, you may find that the gaming experience on a tablet is not as good as on a phone.

Many people want to play games on a tablet because they believe that the tablet’s screen is larger, the game graphics will be clearer, and the field of view will be wider. Although this is indeed one of the advantages of playing games on a tablet, it may also hinder player operations. Because the tablet screen is larger, the layout of the keys is wider, which is not suitable for players who use multiple fingers to operate. Although players can modify these key layouts themselves, the tablet itself is not designed for holding, making it difficult to achieve multi-finger operations.

In addition, compared to tablets of the same price, smartphones of the same price generally have higher performance, which can bring a smoother user experience.
