Specification and price

The most expensive of the trio was the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. This is a relatively new model, but because its price has not yet had time to fall to its lowest level – smartphone you can buy in Belarus from 4.2 million rubles. For example: not unlike her Redmi Note 2 is already on 3.4 million rubles

Meizu M2 Note is cheaper – from 3.5 mln. Rubles. Price Lenovo K3 Note – roughly at the same level – 3.6 million rubles

But the look of their performance and price of the pivot plate:

Design and ergonomics

In this price range (to $ 200) is difficult to find a work of art, and this trio is no exception. However, and faceless boxes they also will not name

.

Xiaomi here has gone the furthest, making monolithic body with metal inserts. The downside – the increased weight. The smartphone is somewhat heavier than the Meizu Lenovo and gadgets, and it feels right.

However, due to the rounded corners Redmi Note 3 is excellent in hand, the location of the volume buttons and locking convenient. See for yourself in the video:

We’ve been on a review of Lenovo K3 Note bright yellow. The decision can not be called original for several years (since the release of Nokia Lumia 920), but it definitely makes the device stand out among the rest. Slightly spoils the impression a pearlescent

On the downside we put too narrow and slightly evolved lock and volume buttons

.. <-! /> SWF (swf1456084409043) ->

The most faceless of the three It can be called Meizu M2 Note. The “mouse” gray it resembles a bar of soap at all.

Here, the lock and volume buttons are on the left side. For some, this may seem inconvenient

1 st place for the design gets Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, on the second line we put Lenovo K3 Note, 3rd position at the Meizu M2 Note.

screen

All three smartphone received a 5.5-inch IPS-matrix with a resolution of Full HD (just like iPhone 6 / 6s Plus). If not particularly find fault, it all seemed to be ok -. Screen clear and bright rather

However, on closer inspection you realize that the matrix is ​​not as in flagship smartphones – tilt colors fade and the sun to read something something quite difficult.

We conducted several tests for clarity and recorded them on video. From left to right – Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, Lenovo K3 Note and Meizu M2 Note.

Behavior in the street on a sunny day:

As you can see, the brightest display in Meizu M2 Note. At the same time he is the most “gentle” of the Trinity and a minimum illumination – and thus at night to read it will be most comfortable. But it had faded most of the tested color devices.

The average (of the three) indicators brightness from Xiaomi Redmi Note 3. It is not the brightest at maximum, but at night the discomfort does not deliver. Color reproduction is also not at the highest level.

As for the Lenovo K3 Note, here we see the most vivid colors and good contrast, but the brightness of the stock in very short supply, especially in the street. This night, at a minimum, he shines brighter than all

The display competition we put on first line Meizu M2 Note, the second -. Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, and the third – Lenovo K3 Note

performance

the good, all three smartphones – they provide sufficient performance for most tasks. This means that you can play as in the simple and in the “heavy” games (though not always at the maximum setting), will not have any appreciable lag when working in other applications.

However, testing small braking were found in the Lenovo K3 Note. Perhaps the reason lies in insufficient optimized interface

Of course, we are “banished” all three smartphone in AnTuTu and got a result (from left to right – Xiaomi, Lenovo and Meizu):.

So, Xiaomi redmi 3 Note – the first line, from the Lenovo K3 Note – the second, at the Meizu M2 Note – third .

runtime

Among all devices Xiaomi redmi Note 3 received the most capacious battery to 4000 mAh at Meizu M2 Note – 3100 mAh, Lenovo K3 Note – 3000 mAh. However, battery life depends not only on the volume of batteries, but also on other factors, such as the processor

In the video playback at maximum brightness Lenovo K3 Note lasted 7:00, Meizu M2 Note -. 6,5 hours ., and the record became Xiami redmi Note 3 to 9.5 hours

The synthetic test confirmed the balance of power: Xiaomi, Meizu, Lenovo

Camera

in this element in the budget planshetofonah saved most. And do not look at a large number of megapixels – good shots with these gadgets can be obtained, as a rule, only in sunny weather

In the gallery below consistently posted photos taken by Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, Meizu M2 Note. and Lenovo K3 Note (several series under different conditions). In that order, these smartphones, and we came to the finish line.



In the end,

The third place is occupied by a small margin Lenovo gadget. He really did not have enough brightness of the display and a good camera, and the battery life might be more. Price Lenovo K3 Note in Belarus – 3.6 million rubles
