Author’s Opinion

The Redmi Note 7 is an excellent feature packed smartphone which is loaded with a lot of premium features. The key attraction of the device is its glass gradient design which is not available in any smartphone. Also, Snapdragon 660 processor under 10k is great.

Talking about the competition in this price range of around 10K, the real competitors of this smartphone are Samsung Galaxy M20, Realme U1, Realme 2 and Asus Zenfone Max M2. So, the competition in this price range is good enough.

If compared with the competition, the smartphone is offering different features like Gradient Glass Design, Snapdragon 660 SoC and tons of features.

Overall, We recommend Redmi Note 7 to buy in this price range. However, at the time of writing this article, our first recommendation will be Samsung Galaxy M20 (Flash Review).
