The truth is these days phones are fast enough.
They've been for a few years now.

The SD625 real world performance didn't even overshadow the SD435 that much.

The GPU is more important. And the Adreno 505 on the SD435 Is no slouch. smiley
Actually played games with similar performance to the 625.


edit....
That's not to say the price for the 3gb ram version makes sense o. cheesy
You can hardly tell the difference now, because both phones are still new. If you load thesame apps on both phones and use them thesame way for like 4 months, the difference in performance becomes clearer.

Thanks a lot guys! Am in the process of sealing a deal with Protein0. Seems a decent guy I must say. However, my head has been turned by the xaiomi phones almost in the same price range as the blackview bv7000.... Lol. Like the xaiomi note 4, xaiomi MI max and xaiomi mi5. Guys, I will still like an advice which is best or most preferred between this blackview bv7000 and these listed xaiomi phones. Thanks again!

Note: I want to buy a phone that can serve without me needing to buy another in the next 2-3 years.


Remove Xiaomi note 4, put Xiaomi redmi note 4X, Mi max and Mi5, If you are heavy user, remove Mi5, if performance is still important to u, that's mi max, but if u can't use a 6.4 inch phone, go for Redmi Note 4x. Please note that these 3 phones are all in different categories, redmi note 4x comes with snapdragon 625, that's enough for everyday use. Mi max is considered a mid range, but that's an insult, considering its ran by a capable snapdragon 650/652 (depending on 32 or 64 g, (64g better by far). On camera aspect, mi max and and redmi note 4x will be fine but if u need something more than fine, u will go for Mi5 but battery might be important to u (battery is fine, not just spectacular like d oda 2).
On a personal level, mi max is d winner, considering price and performance, it will serve the 2 years well and incase u don't know, ur phone will still command a good price after 1 year if u wanna sell it and replace with newer model like mi max 2 coming out soon or mi 6 coming out soon too and there is also another forgotten hero, Xiaomi redmi pro, with dual camera (less common)

Thanks for the explanation and insight.. Unfortunately, I just discovered none of the listed Xiaomi brands make provisions for both Sim cards and a memory card. I must sacrifice one of the Sim slots for an SD card which really is a turn off for me. I guess I have to stick to my earlier option that is the blackview bv7000 pro or is there any other powerful phone that satisfies all those requirements and within the same price range that you can suggest? Thanks!

There has been a couple of note 4 bricking by itself while using whatsapp. we don't want a new user to encounter such problem. Actually, the mtk in note 4 is better, performance wise at the expense of battery but note 4x balance that.

Xiaomi mi max with its 3gig ram and 64gig rom will be more than enough for u. Most people dont use more than 16 or 32gig memory card

We've said it here umpteenth time that if the internal storage isn't enough, user can opt for OTG storage devices.
