Can I get the mi a3, location is calabar

Chommieblaq:
please i want to get a phone that has good camera, my budget is 60-75, however i am now confused with the arguments i am seeing here.

my main concerns are great camera and a phone that will serve me for long, i used my iphone6s for 4 years plus

Deicide:
And its at a reasonable price too.

PAQ:
Mi A3 is way better than RN7. Have you actually used this phone or are you just dissing the phone due to initial online bashing the phone received because of its 720p? Which of course has been vindicated after wards by thesame reviewers who rushed to criticize it. As far as screen quality, nothing sub par here, its just the resolution that was reduced. And mind you at 6 inches the screen aint small, but just not as big as what we have around. And for the OS, Android One, its simplicity is akin to what you get in Nexus phones, i hope you know Nexus berth Pixel phones. They dont do themes, if you want themes install substratum or a launcher.

The phones amoled gives true black color unlike the washed lcd blacks, and due to reduced resolution the phone last full 2 days, SOT of 10hrs for a price that wouldnt break the bank.

Mind u i aint ur average user. Been rooting phones since Galaxy S! I appreciate good tech, especially when sweetly priced.

RealEzee:
padi wia did u get the 128gb variant for #65k, I need oo, sha for a friend.

Ifeanyi4491:
128gb 65k

Ifeanyi4491:
Everything about this xiaomi mi a3 is a bae both the brightness and the 720p...

The battery the camera and very light

My only downside of it is that it doesn't have 6gb version

PAQ:
You are very wrong bro. Mi A3 amoled is really good, brightness is not an issue, if the 720p isnt an issue for average users. Its easily the best phone in its price range. Not talking of its cameras which are comparable to high end phones. One of the best selfie phones with 32mp front camera. I only agree with you on Android One software being boring, but that can be fixed by using a third party launcher or rooting and custom roms. Kindly check our forum on Telegram and Xda. The screen is beautiful, way better than LCD!

rekeson:
No new update appearing in my 6.1 plus global version.

U got this via OTA or manually ?

rekeson:
Which Nokia device is this ?

eki2000:
X6 will not be updated. It is mainly those using 6.1 plus which is the global version. That is why I bought the global version for elaborate updates

You can shift goalposts sha. I greet you.

Initially your argument was that Helio P22 was better than SD 660. You lost there. Flatly. Then your next argument was that Power VR GE 8320 was better than Adreno 512. There you were also terribly wrong. Now you have come back to SoT or battery.

I'll answer you. Smaller manufacturing processes use less energy and emitt less heat leading to better battery run times.

That said, there's also what we call battery optimization via mobile OS. So yes and no.

Using the same OS, Helio P22 should have a longer runtime than the SD660. But with different OS, especially in the case of S4 Vs RN7 for example. RN7 (SD660) has been show to have equal or even better uptimes than the S4 (Helio P22).

There are many factors to consider in battery SoT.

They include

1. OS
2. Network
3. Workload
4. Internal/external temperature
5. Thermal throttling etc.

There's your answer. Unlike you. I have been straightforward and honest without jumping from pillar to post. I urge you to come and state where you have wrong.

atheistandproud:
You read the screenshots but don't have a clue what it means.

I'll explain.

Tech centurion has 1 (best) to 100 (worst) rating.

The higher the better. The positions are indicated with the # to denote position.

Then there's the score. The score is written below the name of the GPU.

If you look at number 26, you'll see tha Adreno 512 has a score of 79.1.

While if you look at number 52, you'll see that power VR GE 8320 has a score of 50.1

Adreno is almost 25 places higher and better than Power VR. Read your own screenshot again.

busysince1993:
you can't even table it welk

busysince1993:
go and read it won't kill you

busysince1993:
Because I am telling you to the truth you are now a Dog ba wonderful dog you are

busysince1993:
mediatek p22 is even better than snapdragon 660 and you are here shouting rubbish

DarkJeddi:
A well optimized device with 4000mAh battery will last longer than a poorly optimized 5000mAh battery..

What are their standby battery utilization?

What happens to the battery percentage when left overnight?

And the Soc and the manufacturing Process has a lot to do with the power efficiency also..

A device with a 7nm Soc can't be compared to one manufactured on a 28nm process..

All in all,it is one thing to have a huge battery and another thing entirely on how the said device sips on the big battery..

KngGezy:
Which one is clean UI again?

It's the normal boring and primary stock android. It has no UI and requires that most apps be downloaded.

And which is one is beautiful screen?

At 720p the Amoled only makes sense indoors. Under direct sunlight unlike its pairs it isn't visible.

ogabentley:
have received refund for 30 pcs from paystack since have 32 pcs to go

atheistandproud:
I dunno bro.

atheistandproud:
This here is the truth.

KngGezy:
Very nice to hear this, but what of the older models and some of the new models that are not available in stock and has to be ordered? Very nice bonus tho

ddjay:
Because KngGezy said xos is better than miui, and like u said, the guy said infinix is better than xiaomi in terms of durability, water resistant, camera etc, if i leave the guy, people around the world will think we Nigerians are stark Illiterates and technically backward, na our image the guy destroy so let me isolate him on this

Ejadike:
not valid enough. Everything has budget, the more the promotions the more the sales and profit making. Those phones wanna penetrate the market and get you guy's attention with reduced price, hence they sell at a ridiculous price. Same thing Opay did, same thing TECNO did when they were still emerging.

Ejadike:
Bro. Why do you think these devices sell at lower price?
