Until the Mi 9T Pro came along the Mi 9T was the most balanced Xiaomi phone we've seen so far, combining some of the best features of the Mi 9 series to create an affordable and strong all-rounder. The large notch-less display, its huge battery and a triple-display camera promise to revolutionise the mid-range phone market.

It may sound hyperbolic or perhaps fanboyish to say, but I – as by no means a Xiaomi fan – reckon the company has delivered not only one of the best value smartphones of all time, but straight-up just one of the best-balanced phones overall. With a wonderful design, awesome display, excellent performance, great software, incredible battery, and a mostly fabulous set of cameras, the Mi 9T aka Redmi K20 is a fantastic option for most people, and the Mi 9T aka Redmi K20 Pro should address most of the others.

It’s not the quickest phone I’ve used recently, but the performance consistent and reliable. Most users aren’t going to see any issue at all with the device and its responsiveness, 6GB of RAM has become the norm and it provides a far more usable device and better experience overall.

If you can live with the lack of expandable storage, the Xiaomi Mi 9T represents exceptional value and offers an excellent AMOLED display, a decent set of rear cameras and snappy performance for what you pay for.

The Xiaomi Mi 9T is an excellently balanced smartphone with oodles of tech with very few compromises. With an awesome camera and gorgeous design, this has to be the best mid-range smartphone on the planet. The Xiaomi Mi 9T is the phone to combat the stigma that 300 euro phones have to sacrifice in design, battery life, camera, performance, and display. It is the one phone that I’d recommend to anyone looking for a well-rounded, reasonably-priced smartphone.

The Xiaomi Mi 9T is definitely one of my favourite phones this year, it makes me question why so many people insist on getting the highest spec of any device with extra AI features which never end up being used. I mean, think of the extra money you would have saved to buy a Nintendo Switch now that you passed up on that RM3000+ smartphone! For more smartphone reviews, make sure to check out TechNave.com!

Now let’s talk about that. So for everything you get with this phone? Buying this phone is just robbery. It is the best deal you can get. I mean with a starting price of PHP15,990 for the 64GB model and PHP 17,990 for the 128GB. What’s more to ask for?

Xiaomi’s Redmi K20 has finally arrived in the Philippines, though sporting a new moniker. The Mi 9T is the latest smartphone in the company’s already crowded mid-range lineup.

Xiaomi Mi 9T (or the Redmi K20 as it's called on some markets) is a phone that stands out with its looks and immersive screen. And if you are looking for one of those, or both, you've probably already decided. But the Mi 9T has a great chipset and four cameras to strengthen its case, and the only real threats come from Xiaomi own smartphone series. It's one very balanced smartphone that excels in almost everything. Given the chance, we're sure it's a phone which will delight you so it earns our recommendation.
