Hi guys. I've been trying to make payment of 219 dollars for RN9s but I keep getting the "not enough balance" error message. I have about 91k in my bank account and the cost of the phone is supposed to be about 86k with my calculations. (390×219). What could be wrong?


Lol, use ₦450 at least

hahaha! DHL Nigeria is too slow. Item arrived Nigeria and cleared in 3days, but it will now take over a week to get to me. I called them and they said it's on the way that I should expect delivery call

They know what they are doing.... Trust me! Those mofos are cutiing cost . Piling up deliveries.

After not missing an update, I still get almost 9-10hours SOT on my almost 2 years old RN5.

COME AGAIN

Congratulations!!! But not everyone has the same testimony here as you can only speak for yourself.

before then, he would have squeezed the value of his money from that piece cool

Sure... But I think you lose battery with updates and I want to believe the out of the box os/update gives the best performance for the device... Every other update complicates things especially the official miui ROM which has a down effect on the battery life, better if he switched to xiaomi.eu with little or no bloatwares if he wants to maintain that sot.

That is your belief and not a standard. Even users of RN7 reported better battery management with the last update.

Another other things you fail to factor out about batteries are 1. Battery Age 2. Charge cycles. If you like remain with the ROM that comes with your phone but those factors must manifest.

Even custom ROMs you are talking about comes with their own fair share of issues, that's why most people jump from one Custom ROM to another still looking for a perfect user experience.

I still don't understand this SOT ish. Battery and charging accessories are part of the phone for a reason. If your battery is getting low, plug and charge! The last time I was conscious of my SOT was during my early days of RN4.

it's because of the nonsense HD+ screen they put on that phone. They really undermined the power of that G70 chipset.
the new iPhone 11 also used a hd+ screen

Lucky you. With a custom recovery why do you even bother flashing with MIUI flash tool in the first place? Except you intend going back to the official rom

Wanted a clean flash, to remove all custom modification, including the custom recovery. because I wanted to sell the phone. The buyer requested that.

Bank rates are different. For access bank, 445x219= 97455

The lowest I saw was Zenith bank @399 and Fidelity bank @400

For some it is over expectation, someone have a phone with a big display and full HD, and uses in for processor & graphics intensive activities and wants it to have over 10 hours SOT.

The Blackshark 3 Pro with it's 7.1" and QHD display struggles to last 6 hours when used for straight gaming with it's 5000Mah battery.

Hey guys, no one seems to be talking about the new Xiaomi 10/10x pro here?

Those phones don't exist, what was released are as follows
Redmi 10x 4G - Chinese Version of the Global Redmi Note 9
Redmi 10x
Redmi 10x Pro.

We are not much talking about them because they are meant for the Chinese market but if they tickle your fancy, AliExpress is there for you. Note for the 10x and 10x Pro that they will ship with Chinese ROM no global ROM(beware of shop ROM aka Multi language ROM) and the LTE Bands are tuned for the Chinese market but you should get one or two that will work with some networks here
