Redmi 5 plus would be effectively killed I believe.

Already getting heavy jabs from daddy's favorite (Note 5), now mama don born new pikin (Redmi 6 pro), and at that price one can only imagine how interest in 5 plus will nosedive

And the redmi 6 pro comes with a dedicated sd slot and rear dual cameras. RIP redmi 5 plus.

MightyThor:
hi all,
my redmi note 4x just suddenly went blank this morning, it did not fall and no recent apps was installed. i last used it to play some songs on my way to work.

it went blank in my pocket, it does not power on at all (not even to the mi logo ) just blank. my battery was around 40%.

I tried charging it but the led indicator is flashing red (normally it shows green while on charge), but it still has not powered up even while on charge.

currently still charging it and the led is still flashing.

Any suggestions?

Try to press and hold the power button for like a minute.

Androidone devices run on a vanilla Android like what you would find in the pixel and Nexus devices in the past, put simply if you want to enjoy a rich software like what you would find in the pixel devices, Androidone is the way.You are assured of 2years OS updates and 3yrs of security patches.

The Androidgo is simply an optimised version of Android os which is targeted at devices with lesser hardware like devices with 1gb,512mb ram etc so as to provide a seamless experience for the users. Normally a 1gb ram device will definitely face problem of hanging and terrible multi tasking but with Androidgo the apps, play services etc are fully optimised to ensure the user experience is seamless.


OEMs like infinix and Tecno that still produces phones with 1gb ran should just go with Androidgo.

[quote author=Elslim post=68707028][/quote]Wow, this is very good. Interesting to see the price these alixpress resellers go sell am. What then would now be the fate of redmi 5 plus?

Yup.

ubev01:
don't you think that waiting for newer models may mean waiting forever? Just saying based on their release cycle this days

lollll exactly, there is no"newer" model in the mobile world these days, except you go just wait till eternity.

Wetin dam wan launch next week?

Elslim:
this will be another hit for Xiaomi.... considering the fact that one can get a variant fur less than 50k Naija money.

Heard the 2/16gb will be around $154. That's above 50k.

2kurupt:
She can actually get a Redmi 5 Plus for that price range too

She emphasized on a good camera and a dedicated sd slot hence why I suggested redmi s2.

seyema:
Nothing serious though, just very slow shipping recently

You need to track it on cainao global as that might not be the date the item was despatched overseas but still arrivals have become very slow these days and to think that my items despatched on the 6th of this month landed on the 13th .

Try tracking it on other sites to be sure of when the item really left china.

Dreami store has started shipping to Nigeria again.

AmazingAngel:
Hello everyone and good morning.

So i am saving towards getting a new phone and joining the xiaomi family hopefully next month.

And my budget is around 45-55k, slightly adjustable depending on the events of things. My criterias are

3gb ram/32gb rom as i would want to be able to multitask reasonably on it

Good battery that can last me for about 24hours + or - (i don't think i am a heavy user of phone as i only browse mostly on my phone and sometimes play game which isn't heavy)

Then good camera which is the only thing giving me headache, because as much as the 2 other criterias are important, i also want a good camera quality as i like taking picture and most phones in this range is either 13mp/5mp and 12mp/5mp and considering the fact that other products have more quality cameras than this. I am a bit confused.

Can you please recommend a good phone that i could get for that range and that would serve these three purposes well. Several recommendations can also be given. Thanks a bunch.

Ps: there is also this issue of either using two sims and no sd card or one sim and one sd card.

For your budget, the only phone that fits 3 outta your 4 criteria is the REDMI S2. You get to use 2 Sims and a dedicated sd slot, good camera-wise, 3/32gb. You would have to settle for a battery of 3000mah though but it should last you reasonably well because of the processor.

to b sincere d whole snap 625 continual usage no b entirely Xiaomi fault... recently qualcomm sef no help mata, sd 660,sd 636,sd 710...none of this chipset cn b used at xiaomi redmi s2 and redmi 6 pro price tag.. let us jus accept.. sd 626 na almost same thin wif 625.. helio p60 will have been an alternative but with wif its performance it will disrupt market for oda products; redmi note 5 n r5 plus

They should simply stop flooding the market with similar products, no one is forcing them to use the sd625 continually. They should know when to stop.

scotweezy:
They had to make the Redmi 6 plus a little different from Note 5 and 5 plus. Hope the 4000mah stays and at least use sd630 (I know it's practically same with sd625, but make the figure sha change).
All we notch haters might succumb our hatred if important things stays or betterstill get improved on.

Untor! To the resellers on Aliexpress, no more black monopoly we can just buy any colour and slap a black case on it.

The notch is better on this one than the mi 8 and mi 8SE. Then for even use sd626 sef.

Pls I want to order redmi phone on jumia, is their phone 4g network compatible with Nigeria local network?

Yes but if you need glo 4G you should be looking at the mi mix 2s and the mi mix 2.

dasanchez1:

ganie:
Please what are their differences? what i can see as difference is the phone size" and the battery capacity.

This is what you should be looking at as they all have different processor.

eleojo23:
Na just for effizy...(or gimmicks as dam5reey will say )

Things like that don't move someone like me...

Real value over effizy any day...if e get value plus effizy then that is just a plus...

Have it on my phone but just used it once. It has been disabled after that one time.

Squarebb:
Pls house, any xiaomi with face unlocking sensor?

The note 5, mi note 3, mi mix 2s, mi 8 SE, mi 8.


I personally find the face-unlock thing to be overrated,in the time it takes you to press the power button before face unlock can work you would simply have used the fp scanner to unlock your phone straight up.

Original Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus Smartphone 3GB RAM 32GB ROM Snapdragon 625 Octa Core 5.99"18:9 Full Screen 12.0MP Camera 4000mAh

What you got is redmi 5 plus (known as the redmi note 5 in India and on gsmarena)

The note 5 I was referring to is a beast and can't be compared to what you got. Beats the redmi 5 plus in all specs.

xiaomi dey mad. Infact them dey craze. i nearly had head block earlier last week when i was looking for what to buy from them. I said, ok let me use xiaomi for the first time because of the popularity am seeing online AND BELONG TO BIG BOY PHONE USERS so that i go dey use am impress my concubines out there.
Na so the journey start from what to choose. From youtube and top sites comparisons to brainstorming. I said ok ok, let me go for xiaomi note 5 prime, after ordering all the accessories , including cases and tampered glasses first, i come see that note 4 battery is better, i changed my mind, again i see say note 4x has more bands, i say stupid people, you dey hide this one before? i just concluded on note 4x (3g/32), i don chart with the seller, ready to pay. I just saw a banner on aliexpress up to 50% off on phones and other items for mid year bonaza, i just clicked on it.
Heee heee, xiaomi official site dey participate, which kain wahala be this ooo. i see say some of other phones wey i never thought of reviewing dey dia. i clicked link to note 5 plus, wao, 20% off. i started looking for review, na so i look say this phone dey hot like hot. I say dis na temptation ooo. I waited for a day for the discount to take off. All the colours that are cheapest for the promo.... boooom.... fastest fingers don carry them within a day. i no gree, i must get am.
Na so i come see one other top sellers too giving 20% off, quickly grab am, and eventually paid. Now in transit.
Now they are coming with another more variants. Anyone that knows their CEO should help me tell am say him dey craze, i no buy again until i use this one so teee, e no browse again. Give my pikin dem to play games until games crash am, i go protect am well until 2022, may be later sell it to noobody or other top seller here , then get another one. Bur i fit buy their tab for my pikin dem later but for me, i don settle for redmi 5 plus. SO HELP ME GOD...

We go dey here when you go say you wan sell the redmi 5 plus to upgrade to redmi note 5.

bobo65:
Sad reply

How so? My reference to the $120 was simply stating it's dirt cheap for the quality of pictures it produces.
