Revainrating 4 out of 5

I expected mediocre quality, but the product was pleasantly surprised.

there are European, Chinese and Indian variations on the market. Indian is not at all a fact that it will work. Chinese - identical to European in appearance (but cheaper), but there is no b20 frequency. whether it matters to you or not depends on your mobile operator. Also, can you flash (ate) then a Chinese phone is a big question. to distinguish a Chinese from a European, dial the number "*#06#" without quotes. if 2 lines appear (2 imei) - this is a European. if 3 lines (2 have and…

Pros
  • + performance and stability. the phone crashed with an error only once in many hours of operation. due to the large screen it is very convenient to work (e-mail, reading Word and Excel doents), + good stable connection (voice, 3/4g, wifi, BT). + good shooting on the rear camera indoors and in complete darkness (this is really cool - it highlights and quickly focuses). + stabilized video shooting, slow motion video, + instant search for GPS satellites, sometimes even works indoors. + very fast fingerprint scanner. + relatively capacious battery, keeps about 8 hours of active use warm, + excellent loud sound in both speakers. little things: + the seek thermal pro thermal imager clung without problems (the previous xiaomi devices were mercilessly buggy). + excellent silicone bumper included,
Cons
  • - There are many gray phones on the market, see "comment". -very big, you can't just carry it in your pocket. It is inconvenient to use with one hand, the case with the ring partly solves. - excessive screen resolution. extra pixels actively eat battery power. If you look at the statistics of battery consumption, you will see that it is the screen that eats more than others. -I do not like the work of the auto-brightness control - in the room it darkens excessively. - the rear camera on the street shoots badly. cartoony, the hair "soaps" (relative to the old redmi3pro), the "portrait" mode (blurring the background) is bull software nonsense, redmi5plus does it better. the dynamic range is sad. in general, the camera is so-so, alas. but indoors, due to aperture 1 / 1.9, it shoots better than others. I really counted on the quality of the camera for daytime shooting of my children on the street and shooting on trips, and the pictures turned out to be frankly bad, much worse than a three-year-old inexpensive phone. -removed the "flashlight" mode in the photography mode of the rear camera, -did not like the slightly convex screen - the risk of breaking. - I didn’t like the viewing angles - on the old redmi3pro they were larger, but then you turn a little and the screen darkens, but of course there is no color distortion and inversion. - at the edges of the screen, the sensor does not work immediately (this is important, for example, for the touch istant and gestures). - the phone is very thin, but I would like the battery to be a little more powerful. personally, I would prefer a phone 2mm thicker, but with a 6A / h battery. - disadvantages of native software: MI applications constantly show alerts and / or ads, you have to turn them off one by one. also, the google play loader is often buggy - it writes "waiting for download" and nothing happens, then it works again. archiving photos in MI-cloud takes place in an incomprehensible order to me, downloads almost nothing. I connected a Google account - here it does the same thing normally and gives more space.

Excellent product, the best quality.

ATLICH! everyone to take. it is even better than redmi 6. more precisely, there is no difference between them. Pros: 1) Awesome battery. Charged the full battery in 2 hours in the morning, flew to another city. During the trip, she constantly played, corresponded, called. As a result, before going to bed I’m still lying and 30 percent of the charge is stable. 2) Performance! (everything flies, a lot of applications are open in the background, games are dragged by GTA, etc. without problems)…

I am satisfied, the purchase is quite successful.

Got pros: • Frame. Doesn't squeak, strong. Nice 2.5D glass. Without a case, it is rather slippery, but even in the complete case it lies perfectly in the hand. • Looks modern without being spoiled by a screen cutout. • Holds a charge very well. • There is an infrared port (it is convenient to control the shutter on a DSLR when it is on a tripod) • The headphone jack is still there, the sound is good. • Convenient shell, you can hide the on-screen buttons and completely switch to gestures. • Ins

Great value for money, one of the best offers.

The device is gorgeous,compared to redmi note 2 and redmi note 3 pro it feels like a kind of "sausage" because of the vertically elongated screen. A significant increase in performance is evident. The device is almost perfect,comuld it be better? YES! 1. Don't cut back on soc 2. Make a separate card slot. 3. Installing Type-C does not affect thecomst, so why not install it? 4. The presence of NFC would be a plus. Recorded a video if anyone is interested.

Pros
  • +Price +Snap 636, 40% faster than 630 +Camera, considering the cost of the device + Support for Slow Motion (though in 720p) + IR port and connector 3.5 + Case included + Good assembly + Pulls toys well + Good battery capacity. + Missing bangs +Can record 4K and 1080p/60fps (but only with third party camera software)
Cons
  • By and large, everything lived up to expectations, I knew what I was buying. Could have been better? Maybe I'll add it in the comments. - After the last ate 9.52022.0, the definition of gender and age in the stock camera disappeared and autofocus disappeared when shooting video. - Despite the fact that soc supports recording in 4K and 1080 at 60 fps, the stock camera produces a maximum of 1080/30 fps. On the face of a purposeful reduction in functionality. - Unfortunately, but the stock case does not align the back surface and the camera protrudes a little (I find fault)

The product suited me, I will recommend it to my friends.

In principle, I am satisfied with the purchase: it will be my "workhorse" for walking through the forest, to the beach, etc. I wear it without a case, I have already dropped it from a height of half a meter, fell under light rain and in a light (so far) frost. On the first day, I could not pull the micro-USB connector back from the charger for a long time, it has such small clinging protrusions, but now the connector has loosened up normally. After a long time of work (several days) it starts…

Pros
  • 1. 64GB built-in memory. 2. Finds GPS coordinates quickly. 3. Inexpensive. 4. Fast charging. 5. Build quality.
Cons
  • 1. Only one white LED indicator in sleep mode, I would like 2 different colors. 2. I would add another 1-2mm to the thickness and increase the battery. Anyway, the camera lens sticks out from behind. 3. The off button is poorly located: when answering a call, I grab the phone with my left hand, my finger often hits this button, and instead of answering, the phone turns off. 4. No earphone included. 5. Files with non-standard extensions, such as *. my, are not transmitted via bluetooth

Well done, but I won't buy any more.

He approached the choice of phone very responsibly, reviewed a bunch of reviews, re-read the reviews and somehow managed to decide. I needed a phone for a large number of calls and surfing the Internet with a good battery that would last 2 days without recharging (already used to it, but I didn’t get a charger jar, and I don’t see any fun in a “wired” phone). As a result, I took a black Note 5 in a version that can be called "unlocked Vietnamese" (as far as I know, there is a separate story…

Pros
  • - good screen - capacious battery - holds 2-3 days (with not too active use, like mine) - nice design (although the phone is always in a case, but when you take it off, the eye rejoices) - good, loud speakers - both external and telephone - silicone case included (headphones that come with phones are always , but the case definitely comes in handy) - nice dimensions, at least if the hand is not small - quickly reacts to everything - stable system, works without a single complaint, like clockwork - IR sensor - a nice extra. You can turn off the TV with a special utility (and not only at home, but have fun somewhere in a bar))
Cons
  • - proximity sensor . yes stupid, although not as dramatic as some write - light sensor. Auto brightness constantly drives. The only thing that really infuriates in this phone. - one-color LED. Kamon! Color costs 50, why this savings? Not critical, but surprising that on my 6-year-old nutcracker it was, but not here - fingerprint reading. Don't trust the reviews from youtube, it's not that good. Maybe it's because of the cover, but it either works fine, otherwise it tupanets 4 times - The interface is sometimes incomprehensible and unintuitive. For a long time I could not find some basic settings, because they were in one place in all previous phones, and now in another - No NFC, well, to hell with it

A really necessary purchase, glad I found this product.

Great phone. Many sin that there is no 4G. It is . When using in a big city in an open area, you will not notice a disadvantage. I have been buying Chinese phones with global rum for 5 years already . ))) I read about it the other day)) everything worked and works . And I never took a steam bath . Xiaomi redmi note 4x, LeTV, and others . And I didn’t think about it. These wise men are rubbing your ears. To buy phones in boutiques . I forgot . I bought it on Ali . 9900 gold color . black is 1000

Pros
  • Convenient, excellent camera, the battery, as always, Xiaomi is on top.
Cons
  • no b20

Mediocre goods, most likely I will not use.

This is the 4 xiaomi phone I am dealing with. The results are: 1. Redmi Note 3 Pro - nocomplaints, great phone, works now 2. Redmi Note 4 ran out of battery in 1.5 days without use - xiaomi fix the problem with phone falling asleep () in its miui OS for 2 years, it seems like it didn’t I bothered, I had to fix it myself by flashing it, losing the warranty along the way. The phone broke down a year after purchase without the possibility of repair (something happened to the board) 3. Mi Max 2…

Pros
  • Pretty powerful hardware for its price, a larger screen compared to Note 3/Note 4 at about the same size. Good autonomy with intensive use of the phone.
Cons
  • Already familiar to xiaomi bugs in the software. This time, a quiet sound and a relatively fast battery drain of a sleeping phone. You can cope with the first one by "moving" somewhere, for example, to Argentina (set the region in the phone). The second is to be patient.

A wonderful product, it's nice to use.

There was a choice between Mi 8 SE and Redmi Note 5. I chose it on Note 5. Although Mi 8 SE is a little better in everything, of course, Note 5 also has good features, which are enough for the eyes. I will not hide that I always want better. But Mi 8 SE does not have one - such a tenacious battery, this is a significant factor. I think for everyone the worst thing is to be left without a charge at the right time, then all the advantages of cool processors and cameras come to naught. I will not…

Pros
  • + This is a new Redmi Note model. If the last Note 4x was more of a restyled Note 3 Pro, then this is a "new body". + Processor. Finally, Xiaomi came up with a sensible idea and did not put Snapdragon 625 here. As a result, we have Snapdragon 636, a new architecture, this is a slightly stripped-down SP 660. I had a Note 3 Pro (on SP 650), the difference in speed with it is about 50 %, in favor of 5. + Screen. A good, high-quality 5.99 "screen on an IPS matrix. Yes, this is not AMOLED, a non-critical difference is visible in directcomparison, the latter gives a more vivid picture. But, this is immediately forgotten when you stopcomparing. + Camera. For which Xiaomi has always been blamed, good phones, but the camera is mediocre. Now the camera is clear. This applies to shooting with poor lighting. The selfie camera has also improved a lot. During the day you can see the pores on the face. I had Note 3 Pro, Note 4x, Note 5 and sub-flagship Mi 8 SE on my hands at the same time and I made a detailedcomparison of them in different situations. Ya. Disk . 4 in 1 is acomparison in one file, but who wants details, there are originals. + Energy efficiency. Glad for her on a par with other improvements. If earlier the phone charged once every 1.5 days, now itcomnfidently survives 3 days. It is still not customary to rarely charge. + Dimensions. Video, photo look verycomnvenient. A matter of habit and girls will be quitecomfortable. + Gestures. At first it’s unusual, you think what kind of nonsense. Now - as before without them, it'scomnvenient. You just merge with the phone. + Face unlock. Works according to data from the camera. Doesn't work at night. During the day it works very quickly, you press the power button and immediately the desktop, i. E. split second detection. + MIUI. Some hyatt, but I really like her. Thoughtful, used to be a supporter of custom firmware (cyan). Everything you need from standard applications is already there. There are many useful features in the settings. Nimble, although he loves RAM. + Price. For all these charms, they ask for very little. I took the global version 4/64 in black in Chinese stores for 11500.
Cons
  • The phone itself has a minimum of shortcomings, but nevertheless: - Notification LED. If earlier it was multi-colored, the colors of the events could be customized and it was possible to understand how important the event was and not to touch the phone once again. Now it's one color. So not only that, but also the color is faded white, you also don’t always notice it. As a result, you have to once again turn on the phone to check if anyone has written to you or maybe called? - Random from Xiaomi. The company likes to put different components into the same model (now we are talking about a phone for Europe, not about the Indian version). No, CPU and memory will always be the same everywhere. We are talking about the type of camera, screen. They may be from different vendors. Yes, they will be approximately the same level at the same time, i. E. no one will put a screen or camera from a low-budget phone into this model. But, let's say you read reviews or even held someone's Redmi Note 5 in your hands, you liked it, you went to buy the same one, but you have several other shades of color reproduction or the camera shoots a little differently, not like you liked . But, fortunately, this trend has been minimized on the Note 5, judging by the results of voting on 4pda, and the components are relatively consistently the same for everyone. Using my example, I can say that you used to buy two identical Note 4x, and the screens show differently, one has warm tones, the other has cold ones. Settings, firmware are identical. :) - Yes, I wrote above that the size is a matter of habit. But it would be nice to release a compact version of this smartphone, say 4.5-5 inches. As was the case with Redmi Note 4x and Redmi 4 Prime. There are quite a few acquaintances whom I suggest switching to Xiaomi, they say, yes, it’s a good phone, but I don’t need such a “shovel”, where will I put it. Well, what can I say, you can’t reduce it with a file .

i would say it's ok. Price is quite good. Camera quality is average and the price is really low. Let's see how it goes. Hopefully better

One of the best deals, glad I bought this.

All of these shots were captured with a generic digital camera. The benefits it offers: Both the headphones and the built-in speakers produce high-quality audio on this phone. At over 5 years old, its battery life has decreased from nearly 2 days in its first 2 years (when utilizing only social networks) to just under a day now. weakly heats up The level of communication is high.

Everything in the purchase suits, a very necessary product.

Every day I wait with him for a package:) (In contrast to the Note4, the phone is fire; this time the package was not stolen at the post office.) With 0.5 inches, the screen is not as engaging as the picture quality. Without backlight, the color black is black. The camera often belongs to a different price range! The music has a marginally greater quality, but it is still audible.

Pros
  • The specifications are wrong. Snapdragon 625, a CPU with a specific function, was drawn. 40% more energy-efficient, there are 636. Moreover, performance in AnTuTu is nearly 1.5 times higher. not 506. Video card 509.
Cons
  • They lying underestimating the traits bothered me. competitors' schemes?

Performs its functions, nothing unusual.

In conclusion, slag, although some people do not pay attention to the aforementioned and their norms, I personally really regret that I took this pipe without first becoming familiar with the issues on the forum; I was just unlucky. I came to the following conclusion: if you really want to, don't rush. Instead, carefully consider all of your options before making a decision.

Pros
  • performance
Cons
  • This is really frustrating in version 4/64 because it happens even when a program has been granted permission for everything, all limitations are removed, and a lock is applied. The colors in the GLOBAL edition are regrettable - the bottom, notably blue, but red is juicy - and the screen is a dreadful likeness after being switched from the Redmi 4 Pro. There aren't many shades, and they may be the same in Mandarin. Because of the fingerprint scanner, the core frequencies remain at their highest and the battery life is short. If you are content with Miyuay's jokes, it's just uncomfortable; everything else is kind of regular. Also, I can say that if you unscrew the screen to its maximum brightness in the active mode (all included), it will drain 20% of the battery per hour. I neglected to mention that the touch at the bottom is a little shaky and that the screen is quite prone to scratching. One annoyance is a small strip of gestures.

There are a few bugs, basically the norm.

It's resilient despite the screen's fragility. Everyone believed he had moved out after he fell into the water and went unconscious for a week, but now he's back and working like a good little tenant. The best smartphone dialer for a first-time user under the age of 40 or an elementary school student. Hired Experts: The primary camera is excellent for the price of $10,000 in 2022 and will be a joy to use. The video stabilization is great, but for some reason I like the still images. Amazing…

I didn³'t expect the quality to be this good.

The "pros" for such a price are very bold, and the "cons," in my opinion, are not deal-breakers for the majority of people and can be tolerated. This is a great device. I purchased it in May 2022 for $15,000 (the global version on Ali at that moment cost only a thousand less). I rapidly adapted to gesture control, as well as the finger scanner on the device's back and its "spade," despite switching from iOS and having to get used to the "traditional" Android control with three virtual buttons…

Pros
  • - a wonderful screen, with the only drawback being that the black isn't quite as "deep" as it is on one of my friends' phones, but this is only apparent in direct comparison, and that friend's phone falls into a somewhat other price range. - "iron" that is powerful for this price - a performance margin for the future - a very large battery (I would still like to know its real resource .) - a jack for headphones (against the fact that some of the smartphone models considered when choosing did not have it) Nice tiny details, such as the option to divide the screen in half between two applications, keep two copies of an application (such as Skype) for two distinct accounts, and an included case
Cons
  • - a software flaw that causes the signal level to the headphones to be very low, but that can be worked around in a surprising method without hacking the phone (see comment) - Even when a standard cover is worn, the camera protrudes: The phone that is sitting on the table wobbles, knocks, and annoys when it is in use. System sounds, like the screen lock sound, are tied to the volume of calls rather than the volume of sound in applications; the phone appears to be trying to signal to everyone nearby that I (un-/for-)blocked the screen, so I had to turn off this sound entirely. a terrible ordinary mp3 player: Even though having a slot for an SD card encourages users to keep their entire music collection "on board," there is no randomness by albums, and when music is playing, the lock screen's time is displayed only in tiny numbers. Yes, issues can be fixed by installing a third-party player and turning off the lock screen's display of music-related information, but the default software detracts from the device's overall first impression. – a single-color notification LED (but thank you for having it at all) - Pre-installed software that cannot be removed (without hacking) in its entirety. Although this is different for everyone now, everyone is doing their best to impose their products. – a few minor localization issues exist (but generally translated well)

Full compliance with the manufacturers assurances, high quality.

The shop forewarned me that the product is manufactured in China and does not come with a warranty from the manufacturer; nevertheless, Global is pre-installed on it, and the phone has been fully Russianized. I was concerned about the possibility of Russification, and I was afraid that the translation would be on par with the translations found on Aliexpress: for example, "a slippery clear smart TV earpiece." However, a competent and professional translation ensured that everything was…

Pros
  • 1. It is simple to set up and use, and it is very quick. 2. An in-built "cleaner" that clears out unnecessary cache and garbage. When I worked at Samsung, I recall having to deal with a lot of waste. 3. The picture-taking capabilities of the device's rear camera. My impression is that the price of the phone has skyrocketed in recent years. 4. Quality, the reproduction of colors, and the sharpness of the screen. 5. The Internet is quick, has a solid connection, and is delivered wirelessly. As soon as I turned on the gadget and connected to the Wi-Fi network, the system prompted me to eat. 6. Volume! 128 GB! 7. The ease with which you can add your content. Working with iTunes was such a painful experience for me that I now consider the fact that I no longer have to use this cursed program to be the single most significant benefit.
Cons
  • 1. Selfie quality. The camera makes an obvious attempt to flatter the subject while blurring their features. As smooth as a rubber doll, without a single zit or crease. I'm not sure whether there is a way to make this more accurate. I was able to find it in the settings, and it can be turned off. I'll post both the rubber and the non-rubber ones:) 2. I read somewhere that someone had written that coffee does not brew. Yes. One flaw was discovered, and that was the fact that it does not have a cable connection to the machine. Perhaps someone is aware of a solution to this problem.

The quality is at the level, I am satisfied with everything.

In any case, xiaomi was once more taken aback when they used it after the constantly breaking Mi5. They were skeptical of the cameras and the screen after using Mi5, and it appeared that they were filming an order of magnitude worse. Put the Google camera (gcam) in low light, and its images will be on par with those taken by the newest iPhones. I generally suggest purchasing.

Pros
  • Of course, craftsmanship, the screen, speed, autonomy, cost, and camera (removes very worthy)
Cons
  • Internet problems do occur.
