That depends on how far the exchange rate can improve, that is all I can say.

Economy recovery is not a fast process. But falling is faster.
Alright then I guess I can't save up Reason being that I have no idea when it all gonna be over(or when everything is going back to normal)

so I rather go for the one my money reach now so that maybe later I can swap it for a new RN9S

So can u please suggest a worthy phone at my budget(60k)

Go and get note 7 (4/64gb) or the note 8 (3/32gb). They are still good devices.

Dollar rise aside...I don't think the pricing is expensive TBH..maybe apart from d 4gb variant Sha...but the 6gb variant is reasonable to me in every sense cause how much was RN8 pro 6gb 128gb last year??

The others are slightly better especially in the battery department due to better efficiency though and a wider camera array. But other that RN7 is still a very good device.

. cuz due to what I had heard about it it's like it's better than the rest of them

.. that's why I'm asking if I can consider it over the rest?

It is not better than the rest TBH they out perform themselves in several scenarios but overall I will suggest you pick the RN8 or RN8T (I have differentiated them before go to my profile and look through my posts).

Spunkyspunk10:

But which one of them exactly is worthy?
And should I eventually end up with??

For processing:

The RN7's SD660AIE and the RN8's SD665 are actually very close in terms of processing power. They're built using the same type of cores but in different processes. The SD660 is overclocked and produces a bit more processing power. Very tiny. Almost negligible sometimes but it is susceptible to heating up which causes throttling problems and drains battery more than the RN8. The RN8 SD665 on the other hand is built on a smaller process and conserves battery more and doesn't heat as much.
For gaming, the SD660 seems more optimized and supported for gaming but hopefully RN8 will receive support with time.
RN8 has a better GPU than the RN7.

Cameras na RN8 win am

Battery conservation na RN8 win am too. RN8 has a better battery life.

For the rest points, they're mostly on par tho.


I'd say go for the RN8. All round, it's the better device.

I don't have an idea. Look through the thread store and ask questions pertaining sales, purchases and deals there.

I want to order for redmi 8 from jumia, they are saying it will take 21 to 25 days for the device to arrive. Considering the convid 19 pandemic and the current lockdown in Nigeria, is it advisable to proceed with the order or I should wait a bit? Alternatively, can I get it here in Nigeria?
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Sprintx24(m): 3:59pm On Apr 29, 2020

Well..
78,900 - 4gb/128gb

88,900 - 6gb/128

Finally, it seems those of us who took the Jumia Global option got better deals. I got the 6/128gig variant for 82k plus shipping and custom duty. I am even sure most sellers on Jumia will still retail at a higher price than what Xiaomi just announced. Hoping my device gets delivered safely though.... cheesy cheesy cheesy cheesy
