OnePlus rival trolls company on Twitter, teases "Flagship Killer 2.0"
The OnePlus 7 Pro
After hearing about the OnePlus 7 Pro, Xiaomi VP Manu Jain and sub-brand Redmi took to Twitter earlier today to congratulate OnePlus on its latest flagship device. But in an apparent dig at both the company’s ‘Flagship Killer’ tagline and the OnePlus 7 Pro’s high price tag, both tweets included an image which teased the upcoming launch of Redmi’s own “Flagship Killer 2.0.”
Flagship Killers breathed a new life into the industry and made smartphones with great specs accessible to the masses. But it looks like many who promised to be Flagship Killers then have lost their path. They are choosing to “Never Settle” when it comes to pricing. At Xiaomi, we’ve believed in making innovation accessible to everyone by developing such Flagship Killers. As you will see again soon.
Xiaomi hasn’t yet revealed much about the upcoming Redmi K20 flagship, but the tweets themselves do point towards the presence of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 855 on the inside. Rumor has it the smartphone will also arrive equipped with a 48-megapixel rear camera and a pop-up selfie camera, just like the OnePlus 7 Pro.
The Redmi K20’s price hasn’t been revealed yet but it’ll presumably cost significantly less than OnePlus’ device. Also, on a related note, it’s possible the Redmi K20 will be rebranded as the Pocophone F2 in certain markets.
