The famous smartphone benchmark site, AnTuTu, has just released the new ranking for the month of December which lists all the best devices based on their performance / price ratio. So let's go and see which smartphones to buy if we are interested in obtaining maximum performance at the lowest cost.

Redmi 10X 5G 6+128GB
Average Score: 395605
Value for money: 282,8
Price: 1399 yuan
The first model in this price range is the Redmi 10X in the 6 + 128 GB version. The smartphone is not only the first in terms of performance / price ratio, but also the most performing device in its price range.
The Redmi 10X is equipped with MediaTek's latest Dimensity 820 SoC, a more performing chip than low-mid-range 5G chips such as Dimensity 720 and 800U.
Redmi Note 8 Pro 6 + 64GB
Average Score: 394835
Value for money: 258,8
Price: 1099 yuan
In second place we have the Redmi Note 8 Pro, a regular customer of these rankings since its release and never got out of the top 5. Besides the sufficient performance and the lower price, the biggest advantage of this machine is the camera, we have indeed a 64 megapixel main camera.
As for the performance, on the other hand, on board the Redmi Note 8 Pro we find an excellent MediaTek Helio G90T which, however, is already starting to show its age in the gaming field.
Redmi Note 9 5G 6+128GB
Average Score: 335322
Value for money: 258,1
Price: 1299 yuan
In third place we find yet another smartphone from Xiaomi, the Redmi Note 9 5G. The price is kept at 1.299 yuan for the first launch, but in some ways it is a cross between the older brother, the Redmi Note 9 Pro with 108MP camera and the younger brother, the Redmi Note 9 4G, with a huge 6000mAh battery.
In any case, the smartphone is equipped with a MediaTek Dimensity 800U, whose performance is not bad at all. However, at just 100 yuan less than the Redmi 10X in first place, the performance of the latter's Dimensity 820 is better than the Dimensity 800U.
