Design

The Redmi K30 Pro looks very similar yet distinguishable from the K30, on the Front on K30 Pro We don’t have the Punchhole camera for selfies instead we have a motorized pop-up camera for selfies, on the back we have gradient finish back but the gradient is a bit different from the K30, also the camera module is Circular, but unlike the K30 which has a Rectangular module inside the circular module on K30 Pro, we have a full Circular Camera module.
The K30 Pro has an Aluminium Frame, with both the front and back protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5.

Display

On the K30 Pro, we have a 6.67-inches Super AMOLED FHD+ Display with
1080X2400 Pixel resolution, and Aspect Ratio of 20:9, an ~87% Screen to Body Ratio, a Pixel Density of 395PPI, and is protected by Corning Gorilla Glass 5, and also has HDR10+ Support, the only downside of this amazing panel is that it has a 60Hz Screen

Performance

The K30 Pro has the 2020 Flagship Processor from Qualcomm the Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, and I don’t think I have to say anything more about this processor, it is simply the best Andriod processor as of now

Memory and Storage

The K30 Pro has Two memory options 6/8GB RAM, and 2 Storage options 128/256Gb Storage.
the 6/128 variant has UFS3.0 Storage, while the 8/128 and 8/256 variant has UFS3.1 Storage

Camera/Optics

The K30 pro has Quad Camera setup with the primary one being a 64MP Wide Lens, the second one is a 13 MP Ultrawide Lens, the third one is a 5 MP Telephoto Macro Lens, and the last one is 2 MP Depth Sensor

Video recording options include (8K)4320P @24/30FPS, (4K)2160P @30/60FPS, [email protected]/60/120/240/960FPS

For selfies, we have a Motorized pop-up 20MP wide lens

Battery

The K30 Pro has a 4700mAh Battery with 33Watt Fast Charging Support, Given the specs, it should easily last for around 2 Days with Moderate usage

Audio

The K30 Pro has Mono Bottom Firing Speaker, which is good for a Mono Speaker

Security

The K30 Pro has In-Display fingerprint sensor, which is pretty fast and accurate, also there is the face-unlock which is again very fast

User-Interface

Redmi K30 Pro has MIUI 11 on top of Android 10, the MIUI is good UI it has many customization options but comes with some bloatware but they are removable

Extra

The K30 Pro has NFC Support

Pricing

The base variant of the Redmi K30 Pro the 6/128Gb Version will be priced Around 2999CNY/450$ which is roughly around 32000INR, Making it the cheapest Smartphone with Snapdragon 865 as of now, overtaking the iQOO 3 5G.

Conclusion

The Redmi K30 Pro is Great Smartphone with Excellent CPU/GPU, Great memory and storage, Great Camera Setup, Great Build Quality, Great Display, and great Battery, And it certainly doesn’t disappoint like the Redmi K30 4G, but still, it has some flaws like the 60Hz Screen, now when all the flagships are coming with 90/120Hz Screen K30 Pro still has 60Hz Screen.
And the Camera setup could have been better like 64+13+8+2(On K30 Pro Zoom) is a much better option than the 64+13+5+2, but at the same time is much costlier for just a bit better camera, so it all comes down to personal preference, also the Audio Could have been better.

Final Verdict

• Excellent CPU/GPU(One of the Best android CPU out there)
• Great Build Build Quality
• Great Display(Lacks a high Refresh Rate)
• UFS3.0/3.1 Storage
• Great Camera Setup(One of the Best Macro Camera)
• Great Selfie Camera Setup
