right now its the receiver nd the speaker, honestly i dont know how xiaomi could place such delicate component in the most frequently used port in the phone.
Both receiver and speaker failed the test?

Mckandre:
the metal inside the earphone jack port came out with the earphone pin and i just noticed now it has also affected the speaker, i cant even listen to music again without an earphone. just saying since its still under warranty.

Warranty only covers factory defects, and not user induced damage

I intend purchasing some items from Amazon, US. Is that possible? What's the rate and estimated time of delivery?

its a factory fault since such delicate component shouldn't be left exposed to external object knowing fully well that the earphone jack frequents the port. u know what? let me inform the seller nd see how it goes, if it isn't under warranty.

This year should be interesting as regards pricing, the price of the Nokia 6 2018 makes the Redmi 5 plus looks abit expensive in Xiaomi's standard. The only way now is price cut, and if there will ever be a Redmi note 5, it can't afford to use less than the Snapdragon 630, and must be priced lower than the Nokia 6. Can't wait for the price drop to begin, make I go climb tree dey observe cheesy.

I want to order a mifi on Aliexpress, one seller will use China post registered airmail and the order will use Singapore post. They both have positive customer comments from Nigerians. Which carrier mode is more efficient now from the two carriers? I will only buy from the one that use the more efficient carrier

At around $260 it's priced almost similarly as Xiaomi phones running s625, people will be tempted to spend more and get the Nokia instead of Xiaomi unless Xiaomi widens the price difference. Of course the price of the Nokia will be a bit higher than the official; when you consider that it runs on snapdragon 630 compared to the miserly s430 of the previous edition, you'll appreciate the price. If Xiaomi releases a device running snapdragon 630, with the current pricing of devices like the Mi 5x that runs S625, what do you think it will cost? Difference won't be much with the Nokia logically. So how is Xiaomi going to sell such device?-to cut costs of older ones or simply cease to manufacture them.

Compare the price and the processor of the previous one na, also you know say the 64gig of Mi 5x cost around that same $260 before. Retailers price nr go too much.

Yes you are not getting me, not comparing the Redmi 5 plus head ty head with the Nokia 6, it's the pricing. I can't even compare with the Mi 5x, because the Nokia has a better hardware, maybe later we will know about the camera performance. Am just wondering and hoping that Xiaomi cuts down prices of current devices to make way for newer ones because the Nokia 6 is actually decently priced wink.

lets start from here bro, at dt 260 usd price dt u suggested, xiaomi configuration will be 4gb/64gb even wif retailers adding dia own jara to it.
choosing btw nokia by hmd and xiaomi redmi series is up to buyers n criteria u set 4 yasef. having a product dt cost 260 usd like mi a1 even wif its snap 625 to me is more preferrable to dis nokia 6 '18... d diff btw snap 625 n 630 is negligible....
make xiaomi annouce redmi note 5 wif d speculated snap 632 first..

Exactly. We have been used to the low cost of Xiaomi phones that we think any slight increase in prices is uncalled for. These people are in it to make profit.


The note 5 with sd632 is rumoured to retail @$250 for the highest configuration. With all due respect to Nokia, India which is the main business hub of Xiaomi will snap up any redmi or mi devices before taking a second look at Nokia.

Naaa, you still don't get it, Xiaomi is the king of pricing don't get me wrong, just happy Nokia is pricing reasonably well with this, of course Xiaomi have no option than to price even better, it's the only way to survive.
