The Redmi K50i is the latest phone in the K-series that's titanically popular in India and beyond. This particular smartphone is a spiritual successor to the Redmi K20 Pro that debuted back in 2019. As is tradition for the K-series phones, the new Redmi K50i brings some powerful internals at an affordable price. There's a lot to like about the Redmi K50i but its performance is the main attraction here and the phone cuts through tasks like a hot knife through butter.

The 6.6-inch 144Hz FFS LCD with a 270Hz touch sampling rate coupled with the octa-core Dimensity 8100 chipset makes the Redmi K50i a fantastic smartphone for gaming. It's been fast and reliable with everything I've thrown at it, so I have no complaints with the general performance of this phone outside gaming too. The Redmi K50i also packs a massive 5080mAh battery which also charges fairly quickly thanks to the 67W charger that's bundled with the phone. The Redmi K50i isn't competing with high-end competitors to get everything right. Instead, it follows the basic 'Redmi' formula of offering a good set of specs at a low price for the masses.

If that sounds like something you're interested in buying then I've got a lot more details about the phone in this Redmi K50i Review. Read on to find out if it's worth picking up for you in 2022.
