was the camera comparison way too noticeable
Lol not in all cases, the note 8 actually was better in some cases but the mi a3 killed it in the selfie camera... Not by much tho

Band 3? That is what I don't even know. But I know their other band is fast in my area like fast rushing water.

Here's the catch:
What's the config you're looking for? Cos the 6/128 sold out. Only black color for 6/128 remains. All colors for 6/64 are available. I got mine (6/128 blue color) for 94k.
6/64 goes for 85k.


Which phone is that?

samsung budget phone na big scam.
i bought a30s fr my mum at 82k.
yet na hd+ display with there useless sluggish exynos chipset.
Exactly, these are the kind of phones that should be getting the hate tecno and infinix are getting, any Samsung midrange phone is a waste of money and my dad is a testament to that, his a20 frustrated him so much that he actually knocked it senseless out of anger one day, 9 hours later I saw him with a brand new huawei y9 prime

I know about the charging port problem, a friend of mine owns one. he doesn't share charger and he's fine.
Yh it's like that for some people but I assure u, he won't use that phone for 1yr+ without experiencing the issue

Wanna get a phone for my friend,but am damn confused between A3 and note 8t because of band 28,
But my major concern is the cost of mi a3 screen,then for note 8t am sceptical because i don't know if xiaomi will abandon(less/slow software support)it like note 6 pro,
And finally the camera,whether the difference in quality is noticeable.
Urgent reply needed cos she wants it by next week
If u don't mind miui I'll advice u to get the note 8, it actually has great cameras and I don't think it'll be abandoned by xiaomi, I've never heard of a note series (not pro versions) being abandoned plus the screen replacement won't be up to 15k (as the shop attendant told me)

And Please dont forget to Like, share and subscribe to the channel. Thanks.
Just seeing this. I didn't even receive a notification.

Nice concept but there are a few things you can improve on.
1. You need to be audible and clear. It's not just some rap thing where we don't really need to hear what they're saying abi?
2. In the video, it was as though you weren't looking at the camera. Maybe you have to adjust your focus when recording.

Again, nice concept

This is automatically the best post on this page of the thread, I wonder what makes their phones that expensive really, it can't definitely be camera performance, my moms infinix hot s4 constantly disgraced my dad's a20 before he destroyed it. From the reviews I watched comparing other phones with the mi a3 camera wise, you'll have to go as high as the a70 if u really want to challenge the mi a3... If u check the price of those 2 phones, you'll weep

Well I updated to miui 11 with church WiFi ( pls don't judge me..lol grin) not much difference tho... But the setting arrangements have been rearranged, for battery I think it's better... (The fast charge just got better), battery SOT too maybe .... one or two new additional system apps... Well all in all, I think the update is not bad.. it's good. It's advisable for those who wants to update to 11.
I dey try imagine the excuse you go give Angel Gabriel when you reach Heaven on judgement day. Great analysis though. A terrific moniker has given us a finger licking and salivating expection, for aspiring updates. I was not disappointed too when I upgraded few days ago. I experienced battery drain few hours after the update but it normalised itself in less than 10hrs. I let the battery drain til like 19% before I charged. I think after the upgrade, I noticed my battery lasts longer even on 4g
I noticed more RAM is been used up as I have few free RAM when I open few apps (like I used to do on MIUI), but the phone doesn't hang even at that

Ok so i noticed some few nifty features in MIUI 11 which are really cool i guess. Note my device is redmi 7a and some other devices can have more features than it.

** There are shortcuts to different settings, like you get suggestions to relevant settings. it reminds of me LG UX nd OneUi, very similar.
** One can also choose to blur app preview in Recents, i like this as this allows for privacy
** Dark mode can be scheduled too, you can set the time for when you want it activated and deactivated. Cool.
** There is a "special features" settings under phone settings where you get the brand new game Turbo and option to choose apps where you want access to be able to use quick replies in the notifications.
** Inclusion of digital wellbeing(dunno if the other higher models have it on their phone but it came with MIUI 11 on my phone)
** Brand new settings for sounds and vibrations (almost same with oxygen Os)
** Option to choose a notification style too ( MIUI or Android), I prefer android though as it looks pleasing to my eyes
** You can also choose how your clock is aligned if you are using stock theme under lock screen settings
** There is another option for battery indicator, you can choose to have it next to the icon instead of inside the icon.
** Stock fonts look bolder and bigger

These and many more under the hood changes.
By the way, have you explored the option to blur your paps when you minimize your apps?
