In the category from 2000 to 2999 yuan (from 275 to 411 dollars) there is a real revolution – a smartphone based on the flagship SoC Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen2 has entered this fairly budget segment. Of course, it immediately took first place – Nubia Z50. AnTuTu experts called it “crazy” because for $343 you can buy a device with “the most powerful Android platform yet.” Lenovo Legion Y70 took second place, and Redmi K60 took third place.
