Review Introduction

While Xioami is a well know smartphone maker in countries like China, India and even some of the Western countries, the company is still a big stranger to many smartphone user in the African. Although, I have seen recent efforts by Xioami to make it products available in some African countries like South Africa, Nigeria, Botswana and Malawi via some third party dealers. Sadly only mid-range and rather aged Mi devices are available via the above means. Well, all thanks to GearBest.com for sending us a unit of the Xiaomi Redmi 5 for review, and ere is all you need to know about the Redmi 5.

Xiaomi Redmi Review: Final Verdicts
Apple will throttle the performance of your old iPhone, in order to encourage you to buy newer Apple iPhones. But that is not same with Xiaomi. In spite of how good the Redmi 4 was, Xiaomi was still able to add so much improvement and value to the Redmi 5 that will make owners of Redmi 4 wants to upgrade without throttling the performance of their phones. Talking about improvements, I am talking about:

Xiaomi Redmi 5 Pros

Great Built Qaulity
Capable and fast Hardware and Software
Faster Fingerprint scanner
Superb sound output
Impressive battery life

Xiaomi Redmi 5 Cons

Weaker screen color saturation
Extra protruded rear camera

So in my opinion, if your smartphone budget falls around $120, and you are looking for a more frugal processor and fast OS to power your daily smartphone needs, you can confidently trust the Qualcomm Snapdragon 450 in the Redmi 5 to do that for you.

that is how some persons are. Nairaland is a faceless forum, some persons feels they can say whatever they wants with their mouth, and tell you; "I'm in my room, come and beat me"

Some don't even consider the stress of putting creative things or videos online

Buy directly from trusted online stores, It will be delivered directly to you in Kwara, or you can order from Jumia. But then, it like buying internationally as most sellers on Jumia don't really have their advertised products in stock.
