    I was able to get it for $560, there is nothing better for its price, a complete high-end

    Now that new models have come out in their Chinese version, it is an excellent choice. The Chinese ROM does not affect at all like other devices, everything is perfect, very nice and ergonomic, I think the camera but with the price it seems more than fair to me, I would have liked a 2K screen and my only complaint is the WiFi does not seem to have as great a range as my other equipment. The wireless ready for is a very well optimized madness. Otherwise it is a very complete high-end as long as you get it at a good price

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.
