Realme 6 Pro vs Redmi Note 9 Pro Max vs POCO X2: Which one you should buy?
Let me get this question straight,
If you can spend Rs 16,000 then don’t look for anything else, just go for POCO X2 without any doubt because the POCO X2 has Snapdragon 730G, 64MP Qaud camera setup with Sony IMX 686 sensor, 27W fast charging support, Dual selfie, so I guess this is the best phone you can buy below 20k in India.
Now, of course, if you’re in a tight budget and can’t pay 16k then Redmi Note 9 Pro Max is also a good option and its priced at 15k.
Talking about Realme 6 Pro, its a nice phone but still, it doesn’t worth 17k price tag. Still, if you don’t like MIUI then you could consider this Realme 6 Pro over POCO X2 & Redmi Note 9 Pro Max.
