You're right bro. K20 is really tempting right now but we are trying to do like GPtech gang - RN5AI till 2020 at least. cheesy
You spoke my mind.

By mid 2020 the K20 Pro will not only still be a worthy successor to the Note 5AI but will also be reasonably priced. grin

Even if 50 more models are released this year, I no wan hear

The iphone type gestures?
The option is still available the last time i was on Q
Whatever version of Q you used is beta and is still in development. Am talking of the final official release when it's done.

But am sure it'll take several phases to change totally to fullscreen gestures & get rid of the old pie gestures.

I prefer the stock pie gestures to the full screen gestures...stresses my thumb, reaching the far end of my screen just to go back na war to me.
You do know Google is scraping stock pie gestures in favour of Xiaomi kind of fullscreen gestures on Android Q right?

@InvisibleB adding 1-5k to your budget will get you a brand new Redmi 7 2gb/16gb or Redmi 7 3gb/32gb.

That's the best Xiaomi device I can recommend in that price range.

If you can be patient a seller currently on Jumia is offering the Redmi 5 plus 3gb/32gb for 35,300, but you'll wait for delivery coz it's shipped from overseas

FYI I make friends without reference to their religious persuasion. Heck my atheist BIL even follows me to church sometimes coz am open minded like dat.

I must have missed earlier banters that might have triggered your response but then we all know this back & forth jabs will continue until we have a full blown argument here that's unrelated to the purpose of the thread.

This look like those generic infinix chargers, I doubt if it has Qualcomm fast charge.

If you're so eager to use a fast charger then contact our accessory sellers here, you can have one for as little as 1.5k

This is d 18watts charger I thought....
With something like 6A charger.... But on the charger head is 5v.....2A
5V---5A max
0.8A


Is it up to 18watts?

Though I noticed the cable not to be d type C....if it is 18watts charger...can I use my RN7 with d head?

Pls gurus ..dis is for you!
Use your default "follow come" charger and stop stressing yourself, it charges fast enough too.

Even if that charger you're holding is written 100 watts, it can't give you quick charge if it's not certified by Qualcomm. If you don't see this logo (attached below" beside your battery icon then know the charger doesn't support quick charge.

I finally got RN7 today at Makarfi plaza...kaduna.

this fone is beyond this world...

I met d battery at 58%....I just switch it off and charge to 100 percent.
I no wan hear say I drain am ,wle no come dey last grin

I followed the this thread since last 2months with some critics here.....my people the battery bam Wella after 1hr and 2hrs ...which I will paste now....
Though I dey fear to update the miui to 10.3.50....
Should I?
And if I upgrade d miui, is it wise to restore factory settings again b4 use?
Cos this is important to me ...I need answer pls my gurus!
Here are all d screenshots!
Bouncing th**der fit f*re all d critics here cos d battery last pass my past infinix note 3pro with 4500mah.....
8%for 1hr on RN7
9% for infinix N3pro
16% lost for 2hrs screen on time on RN7...this is flawless...
You won't lose your settings after updating MIUI. You must not reset your phone whenever you update, personally I dunno why people do this because after every update it takes awhile for the system to recalibrate.

Make sure you activate the mi cloud account on the phone, with that even if you choose to factory reset the device at any time, once you login all your backup settings are restored.

Enjoy

One area xiaomi file manager is better than Files by Google: it can easily extract zipped and rar files.

Two areas Files by Google is better than xiaomi file manager:
It helps you to locate and delete duplicate files and
It doesn't show ads
Turn off "recommendations" in all system apps & no more such issues

You could be right. I mean there's a whole lot of information I really not certain of but I know huawei doesn't have a phone presence in the US. I cannot say for other components produced by huawei.
.
I also agree with you that this is about dominance between two superpowers. I think I made it clear why buying a Samsung set might be the safest now, even if its not the best.
.
So there's that fear that once huawei is dealt with, other prominent Chinese companies like our beloved xiaomi might be affected..

Yes, you are right. Same was Huawei. Huawei didn't have an official presence in the US. However fact is they use American softwares which android is one. Once the US sees that as a threat, then there comes the problem. It's really unfortunate but it's real. It's time to start considering LG, Lenovo (because of Motorola), Samsung and a few others just in case..
.
Point of correction; Huawei has an official presence in the US. They've massive stronghold on the telecommunications infrastructure market across the globe, the US inclusive. Huawei currently are in the front row in 5G deployment ahead of others.

This whole Trump ish goes just beyond smartphones you know? The US is probably afraid that China will dominate the 5G telecoms infrastructure before their own companies are ready.

Back to your earlier discussion. I believe Chinese firms without official presence in the US would be the least of Trump's headache.

after 5 days of use...
Battery management is a little poorer than rn5 but I'm guessing it will be fixed with an update. Still lasts the whole day just not 1.5 days like my rn5.
sound is fine
Display is very okay in sunlight
Both devices use different chipset. Presently the SD 636 has better power efficiency so it's expected the Note 5 has better battery endurance.

@teacherbim Disregard that troll with a goat moniker quoting you above. He has not used any Xiaomi device & only nitpick on random statements by few novice users. All he stated are fallacies.

Having used a Xiaomi device for 3 years I can vouch for its durability & stability in terms of hardware and software.

He is probably a marketer of a brand that has been short-changing Nigerians for years & angry Xiaomi has come to open people's eyes.

Welcome to the Xiaomi army grin Flex your device & give us a review.

I repeat, your analogy is flawed. Tell me Dangote can't afford Arsenal coz the owners refused to sell then I'll understand, not a paltry car in the standard of Dangote's networth.

From my example above if he now decides to buy say Chelsea then we can say he took the decision based on his scale of preference.

Scale of preference = order of importance.
Not what you want is what you really need.
It doesn't mean he can't afford it.
Dangote can buy a Koenigsegg Trevita but wouldn't cos that is at the bottom of his scale of preference.
Y'all just assume stuff here smh
Not if he sees the Koenigsegg Trevita as better & more desirable than his Range River Autograph. Your Dangote analogy is flawed coz he can afford any car he wants at the moment.

If you've a scale of preference then obviously you can't afford everything on your list at the same time, thus you CAN'T afford that which may be more desirable but settle for the more affordable.

I could say the same for NFC. They should have swapped that with IR.
Between the IR Blaster & NFC, the latter is more future proof, relevant with current device aided payment methods & mainly requested by those in the western markets.

I see Xiaomi gradually drifting to NFC & USB type C as standards in their devices, to the detriment of the IR blaster in subsequent releases as done by other OEMs.

The release of the K20 & K20 Pro just goes to show the extent Xiaomi is willing to push for more penetration outside the Chinese market
