Redmi K90 Pro Max Review: The New “Flagship Killer” is Here
Source: Tech X Reviews English
I wonder if this Redmi K90 Pro Max is your cup of tea. In fact, the gap between it and the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max isn’t that big. The relatively weaker imaging and the lack of a back screen are exchanged for top-tier external speakers and better cooling performance. If becoming a “Pro” means adding a back screen, then the Redmi K90 Pro Max might just be the missing 17 Max from Xiaomi’s main series.
