It's a good time for consumers to grab a new smartphone or upgrade from their old phone. Both Flipkart and Amazon are offering flat discounts along with several bundled offers in the form of exchange offers, no-cost EMI options, bank offers, additional discounts, and more.

In our review, the Redmi K20 managed a score of 9 out of 10. We loved the phone's lag-free performance, great design, and battery life. We aren't fans of the camera's low-light performance and the slow selfie camera pop-up mechanism.
