Redmi K70 Ultra: Dimensity 9300+ and a 5,500 mAh cell — the flat-screen flagship killer.

SpecEagle Editorial·Aug 2024·$420·Score 85/100

K70 Ultra pairs the all-big-core Dimensity 9300+ with a flat 144 Hz panel and 120 W charging at a price Western flagships can't touch — the reason it sells out in China. The camera is the single concession. If you can import it (or buy the POCO twin), it is one of the great value flagships of its generation.
