Fast Technology reported that AnTuTu released its list of the most cost-effective smartphones priced between 2,000 and 2,999 yuan as of June 2026.
The statistics cover the entire month of June, and all models are compared using the 12+256GB version. The REDMI K90 took first place on the list.
The REDMI K90 achieved a price-performance ratio of 1399.6 on the list, leading the second-place realme Neo8 by nearly 20 points, demonstrating a significant advantage.
The 2,000 to 3,000 yuan price range has a wide audience, mostly ordinary users who watch videos and play games on a daily basis. This list can intuitively show which model offers better overall performance and is more cost-effective.
In the complete top ten list, Redmi models occupy four spots: in addition to the top-ranked K90, there are also K90 Max, Turbo5 Max, and K80 Ultra, which shows that Redmi’s overall product strength is very stable at this price point.
The second place realme Neo8 has a cost-effectiveness score of 1380.1, which is not far behind the first place. The third place OPPO K15 Pro+ has a score of 1330.1, and the fourth place iQOO Z10 Turbo+ is fourth.

The list only considers the cost-effectiveness ratio calculated from performance and price, focusing on hardware performance; user experience aspects such as photography, appearance, and feel are not taken into account. You can use the list as a reference when making your purchase, but don’t need to follow it completely.
For users with a budget of 2,000 to 3,000 yuan who value smoothness in gaming and daily use, it is advisable to prioritize the top-ranked models on the list.
