I use it and I can confirm that it does support quick charge and it charges faster than all these infinix products with quick charge the only let down is that the phone didn't come with quick charger which you can get separately

Quick chargers aren't normally included in the redmi series. The max series normally have fast chargers though. Except max (1)

Have you tried charging from 0 with a Quick Charger. Please I want to know how long it takes to get full.

You know how some people manufacture phone specs in their head sometimes....

All I want to know is "Why?"

Why lie to people only for them to buy and not get fast charging that they expect.

I have the Pocophone and Redmi Note 6 Pro. The charging speed difference is clear.

did you use same quick charger for both? What exactly is the time difference?

Lolzzz. Chai. Thank God I have a quick charger and even xiaomi 2c powerbank that supports quick charge. Once the device comes, this review will either be authenticated or dispelled.

You don't need to review it. You already know 101% of the specs of RN6P, unless you choose to be in doubt for the sake of it.

My quick charger, thank Xiaomi.

I only charged with a Quick Charger for my test.

I shared my findings

henry007:
I finally finished my second charging test today and I recorded accurately uninterrupted power supply from 21% to 99% with a Quick charger for Infinix Zero 5.

It took 126 minutes to charge from 21% to 99%

Let me do quick arithmetic

99-21 = 78

161.5mins to charge from 0% to 100%


So we have about 2 hours and 41mins to charge from 0 to 100. Turns out y'all were more correct than i was embarassed

I haven't tested with the follow come charger but seeing that this isn't quick charging. The results should be about the same.

Hey guys, Xiaomi is indeed an awesome brand with great phones. But the risk of using the phone in Nigeria (no xiaomi office here for repairs) is quite high. Also it seems getting the global version to Nigeria is risky( the issue BTW noobody and the other guy). Because the phone might get bricked if I try to update it.
So my question is, is it worth it? Getting the phone to Nigeria or should I just go with infinix ( for the safety of familiarity). Even though xiaomi is better. Thanks
honest answers pls
The fact you're still asking questions like these means infinix never show you pepper enough, life is full of risk, there's no escaping it. Heck even infinix, tecno n itel have limited official support for a majority of their phones, so unless you're a very rough n careless user of phone then you have nothing to worry about. Xiaomi is a top quality Chinese brand that known in China n India with a combined population of over 2 billion human beings, same CAN NOT be said for infinix tecno n itel, so relax your mind n go get the Xiaomi phone of your choice n enjoy maximum value for your hard earned money. But if for some unimaginable reason you feel you you MUST get an infinix phone, then the only phones from them now that is worth it is the note 5/ note 5 stylus android one version. My 2 cents

Thanks. This really helped. Unfortunately it was the redmi 6 pro I had finally chosen after comparing with note 5. I compared the redmi note 5ai with the redmi 6 pro now & they're quite similar and at the same price range. The only major thing the redmi note 5ai doesn't have is the dedicated SD card slot. Besides, it has a better front camera. I'll just go for the redmi note 5ai. Thanks for the help. By the way, who do you suggest I buy from(the global version) here on nairaland ?

I tire for them o, the annoying thing is that they don't update their data. I've already received 2 items i ordered which according to their data its still with the airline.

NB: I think its because of the holidays, stuffs i shipped with china post came faster than the one i Shipped with aliexpress standard shipping. Still yet to receive the order i Placed for an item 11th of last month.

I think you are referring to China post ordinary small packet plus because their carrier is untrackable down to Nigeria, am actually referring to their registered airmail. It’s damn terrible these days.

Like you rightly said,Xiaomi is a better phone (When compared with others of the same price range) but then, the downside of it is that you must be extra careful with the product. I mean, just getting a compatible screen guard becomes a herculean task as it had to be shipped to Nigeria. Will you be able to cope with that? We don't know what might happen tomorrow, what if the screen gets broken, how will you repair it?
This is what is going to happen, you might have to come down to Lagos since most sellers and those that affirm to be Xiaomi repairers are majorly based in lag, imagine the time it would take, now, for the parts to be shipped, it will also take some days and finally for it it get repaired. So,if perhaps your phone develops a screen problem, it will take days to get it fixed.
If you can cope will this then I will adjudicate for you to get a Xiaomi product. I love it though, those are the cons,I haven't updated my phone so I don't know what others are but hey, cheers.

Xiaomi is lit.
Repping Redmi 5plus but to order for your phone, please, do order from Ifedith but we also have Protein0,nobody,maybeyland and others but I can vouch for Ifedith.

Before I forget, I see you joining the Xiaomi family soonest. Adios
