Yeah I understand that and I wasn't expecting same performance. I swear I really didn't want to create this post, I have accepted the phone for what it is but this morning I was doing something very important on browser and I got a phone call. After the call the whole thing refreshed, na that one vex me pass make me create this thread.

Ouch! I can relate bro.

I really don't know if there's something wrong with my phone but I think xiaomi sacrifices performance for battery life which doesn't work for me. I like good battery but when u sacrifice so much performance to get good battery, that's a no no for me

The chip put on the redmi is heavily battery efficient

So my ever dependable LG V20 got broken, the charging port got burnt and one of LG's major flaw with this phone was to incorporate the USB C port into the phone's motherboard, in other words the safest way to change the charging port is to change the complete motherboard. Of course the charging port alone can be changed by someone with very good soldering skills. Cut long story short, I got someone to change the port, he took his time to solder the thing and the phone started charging, but then I lost all form of mobile connectivity. I got this service disabled problem, the phone recognized when there's a sim card in it but would say service disabled so I can't make or receive calls, nor text messages. But the wifi and Bluetooth work. I have searched the whole internet, nothing works. So for the meantime I decided to use my wife's Xioami Redmi note 5 (3 gig ram, 32 gig Rom, snapdragon 636) as my primary device for the meantime since she got an iPhone as her primary phone. The experience is not so good.

1. Problem with MIUI 10.2 and MIUI generally. This phone has the potential to be a good phone but mhen I hate MIUI. No doubt they got some nice features but here are some little things that are just unnecessary like notification management. On my LG and every other android phone it is easier to expand notification using 2 fingers, good luck doing that with this phone. Its like Xiaomi took a very simple Android feature and complicated it.

And then there is this annoying notification everytime I connect to a wifi. It keeps telling me this wifi has no internet connection even when there's internet. Every time I unlock the phone it brings out the same stupid notification that this wifi has no internet connection, I've tried to no avail to stop this but no way.

2. Missed notification: If u are the type that don't want to miss a notification this is not the phone for u, especially those apps that u rarely use. MIUI will put those apps to sleep and u will hardly get notification. I miss some of my emails because off this. The walkaround is to go to settings, battery saver and choose each app and click 'non restrictions' for every apps. Really Xiaomi? So I need to do this for every apps if I don't want to miss my notifications. Even after doing that if u don't use the app for a few days the damn phone will put the app into sleep, so that means if I don't use my yahoo mail app for say 5 days and a mail comes on the 6th day I'm not gonna get notified.. this is no good... I would rather lose some battery power than miss my notifications.

3. Terrible Ram management: This is the most annoying thing this phone does. It struggles to keep apps in background, sometimes while typing using browser and I just left for 5 seconds to read a whatsapp notification and use the recent app to jump back to browser, the stupid thing will refresh. Really Xioami? The annoying thing is sometimes maybe I was typing on browser and received a phone call, my guy everything that I have typed will be gone I need to start from the beginning because the stewpid thing will refresh. And it does this for almost all apps. And before someone tells me its because I'm using the 3gb ram version, I have used phones with 2gb of ram and they still keep apps in background. This is 3gb of ram and snapdragon 636 for that matter. I was planning to buy Xiaomi mi 8 but I don't just think I can stand MIUI.

4. Some UI inconsistency: MIUI 10 looks like something in its beta, its so inconsistent. I get some UI glitches, like sometimes trying to pinch to zoom and it will take some time to respond. And then I can't type as fast as I do on my LG V20 because its not that responsive, maybe I'm nitpicking because I have been spoiled by super responsive phones.

I'm in market for another daily driver. I like value for money, I'm no longer the type to spend over 300k on a phone.. not anymore, I'll rather buy a last year flagship for half the price than waste all that money. Redmi note 5 has an amazing battery but I seek more from a phone than just battery. Considering LG v30 now. Mad specs at a very good price.

understand that the v20 uses a high end SOC( SD820), you can't compare it to the 6bla bla put on the redmi...that alone will make you notice the speed difference.


Your coming from a Lamborghini bro, manage the camry.

Preference; some people prefer bigger and some prefer smaller. Not a criteria.

no
I mean screen consume power too. The technology used, the screen size...all go a long way to determine the SOT of a phone.

The neat LG V10 is still available for a new buyer

Psychodavidovic:
Yes but given that the two phones (Redmi Note 6 Pro and Nokia X6) are using the same chipset, it's okay to compare.

Android One on the Nokia X6 might help a little in terms of battery consumption but not to the point of outlasting the Redmi Note 6 Pro.

How about the screen size?

Psychodavidovic:

What if Glo doesn't have 4G coverage where he stays ?

There are other important criterias to check. Personally, Nokia X6 is a no-no because of the battery. Nothing less than 4,000mAh for me.

Good question

However mAh does not always determine battery strength

I like the brides outfit.

Looks decent unlike what we see in on some other celebrity ceremonies where the celebrants make should be private public
