    the misunderstood

    The device had some problems at first due to incompatibility, so it took a while for asus to settle zenui's hand with Intel, after it was discontinued I did a benchmark test with some newer devices and it was jaw-dropping, the lg q7+ took such a beating that in the end I even got rid of it, that's a 2015 phone against a 2017. It was very fast, very powerful even more for what it cost, his camera was something surreal, it took pictures in the dark without a flash and over long distances. But as not everything is "flowers" his Achilles heel was the battery, it drained very fast and when he got old it got even worse. I stayed with it for a year, gave it to my mother, it came back to me and the last time I lent it it was bad.

Ki Cost-effective
Score

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.
