It is also small in size and can be easily slipped in pockets without causing any bulkiness. The 6.59-inch OLED display is not small, which is why despite its manageable size, it does not feel cramped, and has a lot of space to browse, stream, and social media.

The Redmi K90 is a little bit thinner and lighter than its counterparts in the same price range. It is 157.49 x 75.25 x 8.0mm with a weight of 206g, and it does not feel heavy with a large battery and high-quality construction. The flat metal frame of the phone coupled with matte glass back gives the phone a touch of sophistication and yet durable.

Nevertheless, it may be a bit slippery because of the smooth matte surface, which is why it is better to use a protective case to be even safer.Xiaomi provides the K90 in stylish colors such as White, Black, Aqua Blue, and Light Purple. We tried the White one, which appears to be clean and elegant, for our review. The Light Purple and the Aqua Blue are a gentle burst of color that does not seem overwhelming, whereas the Black is a traditional alternative that offers a professional and minimalist appearance.

Display

At the display, the Xiaomi Redmi K90 has a 6.59-inch OLED screen which is a great balance between size and usability. It has a resolution of 2510 x 1156 and can sustain a 120Hz refresh rate, giving it smooth motion when you are going through apps, playing a game, or watching videos. The screen is sharp and sharp, and it can reach up to 3,500 nits of peak brightness, and this implies that it can be seen outside in the blazing sun.

The HDR10+ and Dolby Vision support make the color accuracy and contrast impressive with providing richer tones and deeper blacks when watching movies. Xiaomi has also added the 12-bit color depth, offering more than 68 billion colors, which makes the gradients smoother and pictures more realistic. The touch is responsive, and the touch sampling rate is 2560Hz, which is fast and precise in providing feedback when playing a game or multi-tasking.

The other feature worth noting is that the screen is enclosed by uniform bezels, which provide the device with a high and symmetrical appearance. Gorilla Glass protects the display, and it is resistant to scratches and unintentional drops. Under the screen is an in-screen ultrasonic fingerprint sensor that is not only fast, accurate, but also reliable even when using slightly wet fingers - a nice touch in the day-to-day convenience.

All in all, Xiaomi has provided a high-quality screen that is custom-made to the people who love multimedia, playing games, and extensive viewing hours. The Redmi K90 has a bright, colorful, and responsive display and provides a flagship-level experience at a much lower price. It is one of those few mid-premium phones that the display performance does not seem to be compromised in any manner.

Camera

The Xiaomi Redmi K90 has a triple rear camera system that provides flagship camera versatility. It has a 50MP primary camera with OIS, a 50MP telephoto lens with 3x optical and OIS, and an 8MP ultra-wide lens to capture panoramic images. This combination guarantees the same quality of image with varying focal lengths, and a balanced color tone and strong details are retained. The phone has a 20MP selfie camera on the front side which works well under different lighting conditions.

Daylight Photo:

The photos captured in daylight using the Redmi K90 appear colorful and sharp, and the colors are natural without being over-saturated. The main sensor is sensitive to sharp textures and the dynamic range performs a commendable task of balancing the bright and dark regions. The Redmi K90 can stand on its own compared to phones within the same price bracket because it has clear and well-exposed images, though there is slight overexposure in very bright sunlight. The telephoto lens makes the portrait shots clear and with a good background separation whereas the ultra-wide camera maintains the amazing color consistency even at the edges of the frame.

Low-light Photo:

The Redmi K90 remains a good performer in the low light due to its dedicated night mode. Frequent low-light shots may seem a bit noisy, yet the use of night mode allows to decrease the grain and achieve a good balance of exposure. The sensor is more tolerant of bright light sources than one would anticipate and the highlights are not blown out and the tone is realistic. Photographs of people made in dark places keep the skin color in a good way with little details being lost.

The 20MP front camera is able to produce clear and balanced selfies with the correct skin tones. Edge detection on portrait selfies is very effective and the effect of the background being blurred is very natural and not forced.

In video, Redmi K90 can record 8K at 30fps, but the vast majority of users will consider 4K 60fps the quality-to-stability balance. Video is high-quality with stable shots, and autofocus is fast to switch between objects. Whereas the occasional exposure changes may happen, video performance is good both in casual and semi-professional applications.

All in all, the camera experience on the Xiaomi Redmi K90 is both sophisticated and versatile and can be easily enjoyed by both amateur and professional photographers.
