$1799! Redmi Snipes Oneplus Ace3V Is Simply Here to Cause Trouble

The Oneplus Ace 3V was just released, and Redmi has already undercut it! Sea109d3b-8c50-41b2-9c09-4a581950b006.png With the release of the OnePlus Ace 3V yesterday, a new round of involution of mid-range mobile phones has finally begun.

Moreover, the price of this phone actually dropped, starting directly at 1999. S9168ff36-4a95-4e60-8b8a-0274d48389dd.png Let's first review its configuration. The appearance has changed compared to the previous generation, and it still has a glass back cover + plastic frame. It is equipped with a 1.5K eye protection straight screen, a 5500mAh large battery + 100W fast charging, and it uses a LYT 600 sensor for imaging, supports OIS anti-shake, and also has the same algorithm as the flagship phone.

Coupled with the performance debut of Snapdragon 7+ Gen3, it seems that the overall strength is not bad. And compared with the previous generation, the starting price has been reduced by 300.

However, apart from OnePlus fans, netizens don't seem to buy it.

After all, the Snapdragon 7+ Gen3 can only be bought for 1999, and the overall performance can only be barely on par with the Snapdragon 8 Gen2, and the GPU performance is even worse. f72cc75d-5cc0-4323-b060-7448ace6ee46.png For the same price, an extra hundred bucks or so could get you a proper Snapdragon 8 Gen2 model like the iQOO Neo9, and its imaging setup is even better...

This makes the OnePlus Ace 3V seem quite awkward...

The funniest thing is that Redmi launched a counterattack yesterday. Did you think they would officially announce a new phone overnight? e1e798ec-3e41-4794-8a9f-e3af47eaabbb.png NO! It seems that Wang Teng doesn't mean to benchmark the new phone against OnePlus Ace 3V. When chatting with bloggers after yesterday afternoon's Civi press conference, he said that its product capability is similar to last year's K70E.

S4583467c-c5c2-4f37-8f3d-b655c8981289.png Let's take a look at the Redmi K70E's specs. First, in terms of performance, it is equipped with a Dimensity 8300 Ultra, which actually scores around 1.5 million, just like the OnePlus Ace 3V, and even has a higher GPU score.

It is also equipped with a 5500mAh battery, and the 90W fast charging gap is not that big. In terms of imaging, the OV64B is slightly inferior to the LYT600, but the difference is not that big at this price point, and it even has an additional 2 million pixel tactical macro lens. S2234d79f-41fa-4cf3-9ded-b0fce6860bf4.png It also uses a glass body + plastic frame solution, equipped with a 1.5K screen, supports 120Hz high refresh rate, and a PWM dimming frequency of 1920Hz, which is slightly worse than the OnePlus Ace 3V. Scafb0836-0433-42d2-81ea-31e1adc825e8.png In terms of other configurations, such as under-screen fingerprint, X-axis linear motor, NFC, infrared remote control, and stereo dual speakers, the configurations are not bad at all. Overall, the Redmi K70E and OnePlus Ace3V are indeed fighting back and forth, and the direct reduction to 1799 is simply unreasonable. S49f8ec2f-55bc-4da1-abe3-dc3d6dc40d8e.png That's not all, this morning, Wang Teng went online early and activated attack mode. Sea555ae5-13be-4a44-9b4f-352de04ca34b.png Some even cited the sales of the slightly more expensive Xiaomi Civi 4 Pro to keep criticizing OnePlus. 35d9b6b3-6a07-45f6-8460-344945cf6c4a.png As for the upcoming new Redmi smartphone, according to Wang Teng, it will be a brand new Redmi series, and in terms of performance, it will be equipped with the Snapdragon 8s Gen3, which has a better performance than the Snapdragon 7+ Gen3. 221af028-f7fa-4a8d-a5f5-4207ba90b93a.png As for the Note13 Turbo, it seems that it has disappeared... unscrupulous netizens even went as far as to suggest that Redmi name the new model "Redmi ACE" S302cbaa2-eccf-498d-b096-caac3c66c9e1.jpg However, OnePlus said that Redmi's new mobile phone will be a plastic middle frame + plastic back cover, i.e., a plastic mobile phone...

It appears that it's not certain who will win in the end, so let's continue to eat melons and watch the show.

As to which brand to choose, let's not rush and buy. We believe there is still some room to reduce the price of each machine before June 18, so it will still be in time to buy it by then.~

Who are you more optimistic about?
