Review on Xiaomi Redmi Note smartphone 5 3/32 GB Global, black by Stanislaw Pietka ᠌

Revainrating 3 out of 5

I can't say that I was completely satisfied with the product.

What a reliable workhorse! The smartphone would be excellent value if not for the main (back) camera. There are benefits: Battery life (4000), screen quality, front-facing camera (portrait mode and bokeh effect), design (no extraneous buttons or icons on the display), and performance are all strong points (nimble). The disappointing quality of the back camera. The back camera takes photographs that are good, accurate, and detailed enough for use in bright outside conditions, but the quality drops off dramatically indoors (even with artificial lighting), to the point where you can make out individual pixels. This smartphone is not suitable for photography because I take the vast majority of my images at home (over 90%). Another minor drawback is that there are no headphones included. Yet, there are times when rapid charging is essential, and this smartphone's lengthy charging time (more than 2 hours) is a major drawback. The smartphone initially did not recognize the memory card, however this problem was eventually fixed automatically. The front-facing camera is worth mentioning separately. The benefits of the front camera on this smartphone were discussed in the "advantages" section. However, there are also some drawbacks, such as the fact that the beautification features make the skin look too smooth and the face in photos taken with the "bokeh" effect look too polished and unnatural. Yet, this is an amateur effort, so it may appeal to some. I find it unappealing.
