There's this music downloading app that is currently trending on Tecno Spot, it's called NaijaJamAlert. The app allows you download latest Nigerian songs and music videos.

The app makes sense. I don't know why it's not on Google Play Store. But you can download it free from => https://www.getjar.com/categories/entertainment-apps/more/Naija-Jam-Alert-Latest-Nigerian-Music-932345

2 of then mumu sha, they both use quick charge 2.0 in 2018
NB-plugging the xiaomi with a quickcharge 3.0 charger reduces the time about 15 minutes.

Camera
Many people go fight and break bottle here cheesy. Some will say its scam camera or a facade grin

Now to the main the main

Processor - performance -
The xiaomi comes preloaded with a Snapdragon 636 processor and a mali sorry Adreno 509 GPU. while the other a MediaTek MT6763 (Helio P23) and a Mali-G71 MP2 Graphics processor.
Lets break this down a little.

As of now, there isn't really any site comparing the side by side intricate detail. So ill belittle the 636processor and compare it with the P23 processor.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7065843_screenshotchrome20180504174130_jpeg4d3bb815de4cd07965ee1bc314fb5f97

User reviews don even win am smiley

Here's the link for futher comparisons
https://versus.com/en/mediatek-helio-p20-vs-qualcomm-snapdragon-636
I'm sure you have a winner already right? Note that the the P20 doesn't support Big.Little technology but P23 does. Note that I compared the P20 against the 636 and it won meamwhile comparing the P23 against P20, the P23 over dust am lipsrsealed.
Its also noteworthy to know that P23 chip has the World’s First Dual SIM, Dual 4G VoLTE/ViLTE Support

Now moving to GPU.
Adreno 509 vs mali G71. Adreno 509 is just a slight upgrade(if there is at all) to the GPU found on RN4X which is adreno 506.

www.nairaland.com/attachments/7065968_screenshotchrome20180504181800_jpeg2b29a0b8f723a7e82b943f58d10dd9d1

Here's a link for more proof

https://www.notebookcheck.net/Adreno-506-vs-Adreno-509_7443_8782.247598.0.html
!!
Why I'm stating this is because I'll be comparing the GPU on CamonX pro against that of RN4X which is almost same with RN5 pro.
"Adreno 506 in Snapdragon 450, 625, 626 chipsets will give you between 120–130 GFLOPS depending on the clocking. The Mali-G71 MP2 in Mediatek MT6753, Helio P23 and Helio P30 chipsets will give you between 52–65 GFLOPS depending on the clocking. Since a better GPU will have higher GFLOPS, the Adreno 506 is the better one in this case. BTW, these are GPUs, not CPUs."
Culled from Quora and verified by me grin.

So the Redmi note5 pro wins in the GPU department which is more important to me wink.


Now why the need for all this long gibberish talk and yarning
Some folks here claim to know, (some, if not most) and like to dish anything tecno or infinix asides. I dunno if they use the tecno yardstick
Of 2012 to that of now. Some use No. of sales grin

Last last, no be say i too know but lets not over relate tecno or the like to trash.
The camon is around 77k. While redmi almost 100k.
So...

I ordered for a Xiaomi redmi 5A from Aliexpress on 22nd of December 2017 and had to wait till 3/03/2018 before opening a dispute. Multiple checks on the tracking website showed that the item was still in transit all through that period. I had to open a dispute on Aliexpress. After following up on the dispute, i got a refund within 10 days. I subsequently placed another order from another seller and got it within 26 days.I

Lesson, your money's not lost as long as you have a tracking number and proof of purchase. Just open a dispute and get your money back.

Hope this helps...

Even if you don't have a tracking number... u still get refunds
