Finally, been waiting for Frankie Tech's review for this phone. Hope they will release the global variant. This is a great phone specially the bezels almost identical, 67W charging and Amoled display! The competition is 🔥
@@capoquianobito1958 15k.... Hmmm I think the ZenFone 5z is available at 20k and with offers I think you could get it under 15k. My brother has been using it for 2 years and it is a really great phone . Games run smoothly on it . So no worries .
This phone great spec, great budget price. Headphone jack, is it expensive to include? Gaming phones, in fact all phones should have headphones jack. If you want to gaming late night, and your BT earbuds/headphones is no battery.... you are forced to gaming in silent ... NO, NO , NO. Scuks.
@@MrKennyravel lol maybe they flash the global rom on it which is the poco one, but the phone model is redmi k40 gaming , to be honest the Chinese version os is way more optimize comparing the global one
Have read online that they are gonna make a lite version (lower grade chipset) and there has also been news of it being on Google Play Console so there will be a chance it will reach global market. Personally excited to buy one that have Google services cause it is important to us non-chinese users
Subscribing because you cover lesser-known brands of phones, with Xiaomi being my current favourite because of price/performance available in my country
Poco F3 GT! Hope it comes soon. I wanted to ask if you take those sample pictures with a tripod or with your hands? I feel that are quite nice usually and you need steady hands to take those. Or maybe my phone is just too old😂
Frankie, Redmi K40 Gaming edition got new update and now google services are enabled by default in the root with play store already preinstalled. You sould review the device again, It's a beast!
i think you're right. they don't include the headphone jack, they could have done literally anything else with the punch hole (put it to the corner, made it smaller or not have it at all since it's a gaming phone after all) and made the speakers face up instead of the side. i doubt the global version will change much but at least, hoping the punch hole will be smaller as a poco phone.
Can u make a ram management on this? The realme gt neo's apps always refreshes when all apps were opened when opening one by one. I dont know if its the realme ui 2.0 or the mtk dim 1.2k.
You have to review it without letting the lack of GMS get in the way. This phone is nothing like the other K40-series phones, so I'd beg to differ that you've been there & done that. If this was the Poco F3, then yes, I've been there done that with the standard K40.
Everyone just wants a global version of this. For me, i dont care about the chipset. Amoled, ref rate and touch sampling, fast charge and large batt. This is all i want. Its just they ditched headphone jack :(
Hi Frankie Could you rank the below models by best to buy Samsung A72 Mi 10T pro Redmi Note 10 pro Samsung S10 lite Samsung S20FE Poco F3 All of them are almost same price range in my country!
@@acocabarkapa for me gaming is not a high priority. Camera is most important then comes features and for how long I can keep this phone without need to upgrade!!
Hi Frankie, thanks for this review. I am also struggling with the GMS stuff, hoping that it will be launched globally to get support. But now I am having another issue that I want to check if you had the same thing. Didn't you find the vibration for calls and notification to be very soft?
bought this device. but i just noticed that my S/N are in letters(16). my previous xiaomi phones contains both numbers and letters. is this true to all k40 gaming editions out there? Smooth performance btw, but heats up after a few minutes of gaming (only when using data.. Wifi? not as much)
How did you tried to login into Genshin? Via email and password? I can understand why you can't login via Google but why it shouldn't be working via Mihoyo account?
No I downloaded the APK from apkpure, but once installed it then asked me to download the “update” aka the “official version” which is only available from Google play store
@@FrankieTech bro poci f3 released in india as mi11x and it has a green tint issue while using the phone at night in low brightness does k40 game edition have this issue. Does k40game screen dim like f3
Yo Frankie have you tried MIUI 12.5 on a global Mi device yet?I've been wondering how's the experience, since the current software version im on is a real battery drainer 😐
What are you saying? Almost all the flagships of Xiaomi have best sounding speakers mi 10, mi 10 pro, mi 11, mi 11 ultra now this k 40 gaming edition. Even poco f1 has one of the best speakers.
This one is definitely going to ruffle some feathers! Oh well! 😅

"Fighting"
For Chinese and same if u heard from Korean drama, actually it's an motivating word that encourage u to work on and "fight" for the spirit
at last! Finally!
Wow
加油＝put oil , it's a figurative speech mostly used to cheer up(fighting) !!
"Been there, done that".. exactly..
Almost all mid-range phones recently from Xiaomi seems alike.
Finally, been waiting for Frankie Tech's review for this phone. Hope they will release the global variant. This is a great phone specially the bezels almost identical, 67W charging and Amoled display! The competition is 🔥
It's actually an OLED display.
Hey , the Asus ZenFone 8 series is coming very soon. Please make reviews of that too.
What zenfone is best under 15k today?

3:09 DDR 5 or DDR 4X ?
Why does not 90fps Pubg in this phone?!
Poco F3 GT! Hope it comes soon.
I wanted to ask if you take those sample pictures with a tripod or with your hands? I feel that are quite nice usually and you need steady hands to take those. Or maybe my phone is just too old😂
Rumour has it that the global version will have a slightly less powerful chipset, the dimensity 1100.
@@timytimotius4679 now I'm disappointed 😐
@@timytimotius4679 its just a rumor though can very well be false.
@@timytimotius4679 it think its just the same. Only the cortexes positions were changed haha
@@yousuck6955 don't be. Again, it's just a rumour.
A couple of websites are now listing phone for sale with Global ROM, what do you think?
Frankie your leds light works well to calls and message notifications??
Frankie, Redmi K40 Gaming edition got new update and now google services are enabled by default in the root with play store already preinstalled. You sould review the device again, It's a beast!
Is this phone good, getting it as it is with pin my budget
Not support 90fps pubg?
Which one has a better camera? This or Realme GT Neo?
Which speakers are better? Mi11 ultra or this?
Between k40 and k40 Gaming Edition , which has better GPU ? Adreno vs Mali
Ofcourse adreno😌
Most awaiting video.
No ghosting or statter lags when using the 120 hz refresh rate?
no
i think you're right. they don't include the headphone jack, they could have done literally anything else with the punch hole (put it to the corner, made it smaller or not have it at all since it's a gaming phone after all) and made the speakers face up instead of the side. i doubt the global version will change much but at least, hoping the punch hole will be smaller as a poco phone.
What is the difference between OLED display vs sAmoled display
Not fundamentally different, but AMOLED Consume more battery than OLED
Can u make a ram management on this? The realme gt neo's apps always refreshes when all apps were opened when opening one by one. I dont know if its the realme ui 2.0 or the mtk dim 1.2k.
What u mean apps always refreshes?
@@karljuan8908 i think i figured it out. Its about batt optimization and it automatically kills background apps
nice you always put malaysia est price but usually it gonna add 200 to 400 more
Koyak to you too
Please make comparison between k40 gaming vs realme gt for everything compare
Will there be a global version of the redmi k40 gaming edition
Any workaround on the Google app issue?
Hello frankie, is there 2nd space on there?
4:15 why?
Manufacturers must use more and more mediatek chipsets because they make premium features very accesible to a much larger crowd
Is the camera better than that of Poco F3?
I always do your intro everytime i watch your videos...ima like hey guy it's frankie " from Frankie tech" - me lol
12:16 why poco f3 attracting to redmi note 10 pro max? Haha
hey man, did miui 12.5 really can thrash bloatwares?
You have to review it without letting the lack of GMS get in the way. This phone is nothing like the other K40-series phones, so I'd beg to differ that you've been there & done that. If this was the Poco F3, then yes, I've been there done that with the standard K40.
nice review buddy! thanks
Hey Frankie!!
En términos de audio, está bien con el K40 gaming o es mejor el Black Shark 4?
So who was better? redmi k40 gaming edition or Poco F3?
why you are not using trigger buttons given on the phone, u forget to give us the review for that
Thnx for the review 🖤
Helo my k40 gaming don't have mi store is it normal?
Pick one Redmi k40 gaming or poco x3 pro please pick ones
Video please ?
K40 Pro+ vs ? Pubg battery temp ? 90fps 120fps
Hey Frankie which camera is more better
Poco F3 48mp or Redmi K40 Gaming 64mp??
More better xD
@@silverwerewolf975 which one?
@@samisikandar9902 nono I am amused by "more better" jajajaja
Can I watch HDR video on youtube with this phone ?
I heard someone said it can not when it has hdr10+ display
Does the anti-flicker work on 120hz, or do you have to drop the refresh rate to 60hz to be able to enable the anti-flicker mode?
Really, the Google problem in this phone was not solved?
Everyone just wants a global version of this. For me, i dont care about the chipset. Amoled, ref rate and touch sampling, fast charge and large batt. This is all i want. Its just they ditched headphone jack :(
Hi Frankie

Samsung S20FE
Poco F3
All of them are almost same price range in my country!

Dear Frankie - which one would you choose - Realme GT 5G or Redmi K40 gaming edition?
Awesome indepth review as always bro
Finally 🔥❤️
Hi Frankie, which do you think would be better to buy of these 3: poco f3, xiaomi mi 11 or poco f3 (redmi k40 game edition) Saludos!!
Frankie Tech catch up video weekend.
This looks cool but I still prefer the classic plain look for some reason.
The fact that this boasts somewhat better splash and dust protection makes it a better contender thank black shark 4 pro
Hi Frankie, thanks for this review. I am also struggling with the GMS stuff, hoping that it will be launched globally to get support.
But now I am having another issue that I want to check if you had the same thing. Didn't you find the vibration for calls and notification to be very soft?
You just only need to download playstore in miui 12.5 china version.
They updated it so u can get it recently
Hehe I bought it a week ago it has Google apps nows
4:30 just install the apks for them
Is it good for long term?
What about screen dimming issue?
Great video. Please mention camera sensor also
bought this device. but i just noticed that my S/N are in letters(16). my previous xiaomi phones contains both numbers and letters. is this true to all k40 gaming editions out there?
Smooth performance btw, but heats up after a few minutes of gaming (only when using data.. Wifi? not as much)
Currently running on MIUI 12.5.8 on my china ROM. All google apps working fine. No need sideloading.
Does all google play game or service account sign in ok? & google map going smoothly?
What is DRM?
How did you tried to login into Genshin? Via email and password? I can understand why you can't login via Google but why it shouldn't be working via Mihoyo account?

Does k40game screen dim like f3
Can you pleaseee re-review this phone again now that it officially has GSM?
It deserve it
Which one is better for watching movie, K40 Gaming or poco F3?
Hey great video.. Just wondering if the poco F3 and K40 would be available in Sri Lanka?
9:02 download the Chinese version of the game from TapTap, 90% it will work
I don’t want to download the Chinese version of the game 🤣🤣🤣
Yo Frankie have you tried MIUI 12.5 on a global Mi device yet?I've been wondering how's the experience, since the current software version im on is a real battery drainer 😐
Poco f3 or k40 gaming? Which is better?
OS beta version can now install Google play store
is it possible ! Get 60 FPS with all this power?
Better Camera:
Poco F3 or K4 Gaming?
Is it possible to change the rom from Mi11x to k40 GEE?
Thanks for mention INR

Waiting for the indian launch
Is the global variant have google?
Yes probably
Does it support ois
Please compare it to the poco f3 having a hard time deciding which to buy
Seems that the gms lock is only limited to the Dimensity SOC. the Snapdragon SOC phones can stilll install the playstore
I believe that the Global version will be launched as the POCO F3 GT.
So does GSMArena so it's not original!
@@lukemothug Indeed, just received the notification about the article on the store listing.
@@Edzward what about the global chip? Is it confirmed to be dimensity 1100?
Frankie why the F3 was moving the hole time in the end😂😂😂😂
