This includes optimisations for improved gaming, night vision mode for enhanced picture quality in dark situations, and a touch response rate of 71.25 ms. The thing that comes as a major surprise for mobile gamers sure has to be the support for Black Shark’s gamepad with the Redmi K20 Pro.

 Redmi K20 Pro also packs a 20MP pop-up selfie camera module for good selfies, which Redmi says opens up in just 0.8 seconds and has a phantom light on either side of the module.

The smartphone also features all of your usual connectivity options, Hi-Fi audio which is powered by Qualcomm, 3.5mm headphone jack and a massive 4,000mAh battery. This is paired with 27W charging support via the USB Type-C port, which is surely more exciting than any of the other specs.
