The end of this month will be dedicated to the launch of many top of the range, of which among the most anticipated we also find the Redmi K30 Pro which after a year resumes the legacy of the success obtained by its predecessor due to a decidedly economic price. than the hardware offered. Of this same line was the glorious POCOPHONE F1 which still does not seem to have an heir, as the POCO X2 is not equipped with a top SoC, but on balance it turned out to be a rebrand of the Redmi K30.
However, the news of the future launch of POCO F2, which should arrive in a few weeks, maybe months, astounding everyone once again as for the first generation. But no, POCO F2 it will amaze as regards the price, but as we could have imagined it will be the impersonation of the Redmi K30 Pro in the Global version. The void left by POCOPHONE F1 will therefore be filled with this new model, which unfortunately will not have its own identity except in the price, decreeing it as the cheapest Snapdragon 865 phone this year.
Redmi K30 Pro will become one of the cheapest or maybe even the cheapest Snapdragon 865 Smartphone. The focus is on this only so do not expect majorly good specifications in other areas like the camera. #Redmi #RedmiK30Pro

Redmi K30 Pro = POCO F2: a smartphone with cheap Snapdragon 865?
The information comes from the young leaker, Ishan Agarwal (@ ishanagarwal24), who said in a tweet that the Redmi K30 Pro will be "one of the cheapest or perhaps the only Snapdragon 865 phones". However, in contrast to the rumors, he adds that by virtue of the cost containment by the company, we should not expect particular virtuosity in terms of the hardware used, as for the display, the battery capacity and the actual performance of the camera.
All this suggests that the smartphone to which the leaker refers is actually the future POCO F2, which is already circulating among some lucky employees. We remember in fact that POCOHONE F1 was announced on 22 August 2018 but I personally saw it already live during the #MiExplorers program in July 2018, which took me to Barcelona for the launch of Mi A2 and Mi A2 Lite. The unknown is therefore the price: Redmi K30 Pro should have an initial price of 2999 yuan, about 387 euros at the exchange rate. How much will the price list be lowered by POCO F2 to get the cheapest Snadragon 865 phone title?
I don't understand this snapdragon craze but putting the scary 1000 dimension and investing in a quality screen wouldn't be better?
