Let me sum it up for you

The general sentiment among Kimovil users is that this is an exceptional device, considered by many to be the best on the market, especially for its value for money if purchased as a Chinese version. Its design and fluidity stand out, although the nature of its Chinese ROM raises concerns about initial setup and compatibility with some services.

  • Мой самый первый Флагман, невероятно хорош

    Что могу сказать, когда все мои прошлые аппараты - в несколько раз дешевле него.? После LG X Power, Galaxy A20, Huawei Nova 3 и Realme GT Master Edition...
    Я даже не знаю, что и как в нём хвалить, когда получаешь мощный апгрейд практически по всем фронтам.

    Особенности, с которыми я столкнулся: Origin OS, у которой многие функции работают только в Китае; странная работа приложений в фоне; много настроек, которые нужно ковырять; 120гц приходится выставлять для КАЖДОГО приложения вручную; некоторые функции от Google не работают.


    Pros
    • Внешность
    • Запас яркости экрана
    • Крутые камеры (особенно телевик)
    • Полноценные стерео динамики
    • Инфракрасный порт
    • Ультразвуковой дактилоскоп
    Cons
    • Площадь дактилоскопа (vs. X90 Pro+)
    • Скорость зарядки
    • 9.4

    It's an amazing phone in every way.

    Besides the amazing cameras, the performance, battery life, and the phone itself are fantastic.

    My very first Flagship, incredibly good

    What can I say when all my previous devices are several times cheaper than this one? After the LG X Power, Galaxy A20, Huawei Nova 3, and Realme GT Master Edition... I don't even know what or how to praise it when it gets a massive upgrade on almost every front. Some issues I encountered: Origin OS, many of whose features only work in China; strange background app behavior; lots of settings that require fiddling; 120Hz refresh rate has to be set manually for EVERY app; some Google features don't work.


    Pros
    • Appearance
    • Screen brightness reserve
    • Cool cameras (especially the telephoto one)
    • Infrared port
    • Ultrasonic fingerprinting
    Cons
    • Fingerprint scanner area (vs. X90 Pro+)
    • Charging speed
    • Power consumption when the screen is on

    It's wonderful, the only really bad thing is that it's not global.

    It's wonderful, but like almost everything, it could be improved. The biggest drawbacks are that it's Chinese, resulting in a noticeably more cumbersome basic setup and the relatively frequent language issues in some apps, and the lack of an eSIM (typical of a Chinese version). Other minor areas for improvement include the curved screen, which is difficult to find and apply screen protectors that don't peel off or break, as they are significantly more expensive than those for flat screens; the battery, which lasts about 30 hours with normal use (without gaming or taking many photos or videos), meaning it's adequate but I'd appreciate better performance; the sound, which is very good but not excellent (e.g., the iPhone 15 Pro Max sounds excellent); and finally, something less noticeable to me but which some might find excessively wide around the cameras.

    Pros

    Cons
    • Chinese version only
    • Initial SW configuration

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
