     Xiaomi Redmi k20 is ready to compete with other devices like Realme X, Motorola One Vision, Samsung Galaxy M40 and Oppo Reno. By comparing the other Redmi devices pricing i think this device is slightly overpriced device. If Xiaomi wants to replace his POCO series with k20 the pricing of this devices should be around 18K to 19K also its competitor device Realme X launched at a price of 16,999 offering 128 GB of Rom whereas Xiaomi Redmi K20 offers 64GB of Rom at a price point of 21,999 which is quiet high. 

     There are many things which makes Xiaomi Redmi K20 different from Realme X but then also if the pricing of this device is as same as Realme X higher variant then it would be acceptable but the price difference between both the device is around Rs 5,000 which is a higher price gap. We have to also look at other devices which is going to come with same hardware if their pricing is higher than other this device then we can accept as a perfect mid ranger device.
     But for now this will be a big question whether you have to buy this device or not? because there are many Xiaomi fans which are get disappointed by Xiaomi Redmi K20. Overall device is great in terms of camera and performance both.
