Is RedmiK5 worth starting with-evaluation of advantages and disadvantages of redmik 5
Redmi RedmiK5 is equipped with Tianji 81 processor, and its performance is still guaranteed. With the configuration upgrade and more powerful optimization, it is very good for both daily use and game audio and video. Let's introduce the detailed performance configuration of Redmi RedmiK5.
evaluation of red mik5
appearance and screen:
RedmiK5 has a straight screen on the front and a hole-digging design in the center, in which the straight screen is absolutely praised. Although the micro-surface has a high value, it is still accidentally touched when dragging the progress bar while watching the video. In addition to no wrong touch, the straight screen is also excellent for playing games.
This machine adopts a 6.5-inch Samsung AMOLED flexible straight screen with a resolution of 32x144. It is the first time that Redmi is equipped with a 2K resolution screen, which supports 12Hz high brush. Unfortunately, there is no LTPO, but there is no choice at this price. What kind of bike is there with a high resolution screen?
in addition, there are 16,-level automatic brightness, 526PPI, ambient color temperature sensing, Dolby Vision, DC dimming and other features, among which DC dimming can only be realized at a refresh rate of 6Hz.
The back of the fuselage is the most unique design, which is also the biggest change of K5 series. The rear camera has a rectangular layout, adopting a square and circular collision design, and the decorative ring is similar to the star ring style. At the same time, the lens is made of Super Black, which deepens the overall high black and bright texture, but the middle frame adopts a plastic middle frame to save costs, which affects the texture of the whole machine.
This ink feather in my hand continues the K4 design language, and uses nano-microcrystal technology to carve the crystal pattern onto the surface of the diaphragm through lithography technology. Officially, it is called the texture design from the space olive meteorite, but personally it feels more like the feeling of broken glass.
System and brightness:
The RedMik 5 is running the stable version of MIUI 13..2 based on Android 12, and I believe all the functions are familiar, such as small window and privacy protection, so I won't say much. Let's briefly talk about the display mode of the machine.
RedmiK5 supports 2K resolution and 12Hz refresh rate at the same time, supports customization of color style, has multiple modes to choose from, and has true color display, which can be adjusted according to your own suitable visual color.
Sure enough, this version of the built-in application still has advertisements, such as weather and calendar. Fortunately, it can be closed manually, so I won't say much. I hope it will not be opened by default in the future.
performance and games:
in addition to the screen, the biggest upgrade of RedmiK5 lies in its core. It was first equipped with MediaTek Tianji 81 processor, equipped with full-blood version of LPDDR5 memory and upgraded version of UFS 3.1 flash memory, and supported atomic memory and IO Turbo, which improved the background resident ability and file copying speed, which really improved significantly.
then look at tianji 81. TSMC's 5nm process is adopted, and the CPU is composed of four 2.85GHz Cortex-A78 cores and four 2.GHz A55 energy-efficient cores, which are still the Armv8 instruction set.
In terms of GPU, Tianji 81 integrates six-core ARM Mali-G61. The GPU frequency has not been announced yet, but it has been increased by 2% compared with Tianji 8. In addition, the APU is composed of two performance cores and one general core, and the frequency is increased by 25% compared with Tianji 8. It is equipped with HyperEngine 5. game optimization engine and supports.
in terms of paper parameters, Tianji 81 belongs to the sub-flagship level, and its positioning is similar to that of Snapdragon 87. Compared with the A77 core of the latter, Tianji 81 has advantages in CPU. Focus on the gap between Mali-G61 and Adreno 65. The specific running scores are as follows.
After the actual test, RedmiK5 Antu Bunny scored 846,787. It was really a shock. At this time, I found that the target of Tianji 81 seems to be not Snapdragon 87, but the flagship Snapdragon 888. I really didn't expect the six-core Mali-G61 to have such a strong performance. Simple comparison, with the existing Snapdragon 87 and Snapdragon 888 models, we can see the advantages and disadvantages of Tianji 81. Note that it is only a model with similar price, not a flagship.
Let's look at the running score first. In the same environment of three mobile phones, Tianji 81 has better running score performance, followed by Snapdragon 888 model and Snapdragon 87 model.
compared with the sub-scores, the CPU score of Tianji 81 is slightly ahead of Snapdragon 87 and behind Xiaolong 888. The reason is that Cortex X1 core has higher performance, but overall, the performance of four A78 cores is enough to run mainstream games smoothly.
in terms of GPU, the performance of Tianji 81 is quite strong, with a breakthrough of 3,, which is almost far ahead of Snapdragon 87 and closely behind Snapdragon 888. Although there is a gap, it is not big. As a sub-flagship, Tianji 81 is the highest performance at present, and there is no one.
it doesn't seem too surprising just to see the running score? Then the power consumption and fever, Tianji 81 can definitely be called the deity level, to see the actual game performance.
the glory of the king
the glory of the king started the 12-frame mode, which can completely keep the full frame running. During this period, the frame drop is a restart of the game, which is a normal phenomenon during the loading process. Surprisingly, the game lasts for 3 minutes. The highest temperature of the back cover of the RedmiK5 is 4.6. The average temperature is only 36.6. I can hardly feel the fever when I hold it. At one time, I suspected that I didn't turn on the high frame rate until the measured frame rate curve showed 12 frames in the whole process. I was really surprised, I could understand it and was greatly shocked.
Genshin Impact
followed by Genshin Impact, which was still stable to 6fps in the early stage, and then the frame began to drop by 45fps due to the heat of the fuselage. However, according to the frame rate curve, it is wavy, because the frame will drop to about 45 if the blame is played, and the frame will remain at about 5, which is better than locking to 45 directly.
in terms of fever, the highest temperature is 44. The average temperature is 39.1. In view of the performance of the glory of the king, this temperature is a little high. At the same time, after many attempts, we can draw a medium load scene. Tianji 81 has excellent power consumption performance. Under high load, Tianji 81 still has fever, but in front of Snapdragon 888,
imaging and photographing:
in terms of imaging, the RedmiK5 has a 48-megapixel main camera (IMX582, OIS)+8-megapixel super wide angle+2-megapixel macro. This combination is enough for daily code scanning, and it is more conscientious to equip it with optical image stabilization. After all, the screen and processor have already occupied a lot of costs, so it is inevitable that the camera of this cost-effective model will shrink.
it should be noted that the local weather is cloudy and foggy continuously, which affects the purity of the picture, and it is due to the engineering machine, which does not mean the final imaging.

The imaging details are good, and the noise control of the daytime scene also belongs to the mainstream level. The advantage of this CMOS camera lies in shooting close-range, especially blurring details, natural transition, accurate flower color reproduction, and no color cast, but the macro lens is somewhat unsatisfactory, and it needs to adjust the angle several times to shoot a clear macro.
battery life and charging:
the red mik5 is equipped with a 55mAh battery, but it is a large battery that is rare at present. How about a low-power battery life with the Tianji 81? Let's take a look at the measured data. It is customary to use Ann Bunny's stress test function to test the super power consumption.
stress testing is a built-in function of Ann Bunny's evaluation. To test the stability of equipment performance through high-load calculation requires a lot of calculation by CPU, so the power consumption is larger than that in video, daily use and other scenes. Turn on the high-brush mode of 2K+12Hz.
under the super power consumption test, the RedmiK5 lasted for 24 minutes, which was really a surprise, and it was comparable to the entry-level model with long battery life. You know, this is still a scene with a resolution of 2K, and it is expected that the 18P mode will have a longer battery life performance.
compared with a certain model equipped with Snapdragon 87+45mAh, it takes 17 minutes, while the K5 has reached 24 minutes, which is the longest stress test model for new machines at present. On the one hand, it is due to the large battery of 55mAh, on the other hand, it is the low power consumption advantage of Tianji 81.
it should be noted that this result is based on the fact that the CPU is always fully loaded. Considering our daily use and screen-on time, this data should be converted into multiples, and it is concluded that the RedmiK5 has a continuous use time of more than 8 hours. Note that it is continuous use, not daily screen-off, message-back, etc.
in terms of charging, RedmiK5 supports 67W wired fast charging. Let's see how fast it is.
according to the actual test, it takes 5 minutes for RedmiK5 to charge to 1%, including 44% in 1 minutes and 75% in 3 minutes, which is a normal charging speed for a 55mAh battery.
the detailed parameter configuration information of redmik5 is as follows:
summary:
RedmiK5 is a product that exceeds expectations, and it is another benchmark at the same price, especially the front 2K high screen and Tianji 81, as well as the long battery life of 55mAh. It must be said that only Redmi can make this kind of product with high cost performance.
the cost-effective model is bound to have defects. For example, the rear camera is still 48 million pixels, but it is not so sincere with OIS optical image stabilization. This is the trade-off made by Lu Weibing. At present, it is really accurate, giving users everything they want, even exceeding expectations.
of course, if a product only has enough bright spots, it can't cover up its shortcomings, but if the starting price is 2399 yuan on this basis, the nature will be different. The combination of 2K high screen, 67W fast charge and Tianji 81, which is the mid-range power consumption of flagship performance, can be predicted that this machine will hit tens of millions of sales again.
in this way, the k5 can be regarded as a conscience product. This price is really fragrant with these properties ~
