The Pro Max camera resolution, sound system, and battery are the best in my opinion.

Here is a correction: The Xiaomi Redmi K100 Pro should have 1,535 shading units instead of 1,024. It is the Xiaomi Redmi K100 Pro—not the Pro Max—that features the cut-down version of the chip (the 8 Elite Gen 5 V-Series). The model that comes with the full-spec chip is the K Pro Max.
