The Redmi k20 Pro runs smoothly and can handle various app simultaneously. We stuffed the phone with multiple apps and games including, Outlook, MS-Office, Call of the Duty, Asphalt 9, Mortal Combat etc..
When playing games like Asphalt and Mortal combat, the phone managed them smoothly. But with games like PUBG and Call of Duty, we noticed a little lag in the graphics.

The Redmi K20 Pro is powered with a 4,000 mAh battery. The battery can run for more than one day in one full charge with moderate usage. And with power users and gamers, it can be for one day.
