For real this xiomiRedmi has really caught my fancy. Zpzrt from where and how to buy, i need clearer clarifications.
1. Delivery period?
2. Is the freq compatible in Nig?
3. Any local agent in Nig?
4. Confused on choice because variants are similar with insignificant differences
5. Strong battery life? Because 4G LTE plus SD can suck battery like mad.
6. Does it support dual sim plus sd card on the go?
7. My budget is under 65k.
8. Does it come with earphone?
9. Local service support centres nko?
10. Based on personal usage kindly recommend Models.

Gptech:
Hmmm, observing, this year go dey interesting, fierce competition, good for consumers.

Elslim:
wahala for Xiaomi because they set the <200$ bar limit for midrangers with good specs. now other players can capitalise on it or don't u think so?

Elslim:
Redmi note 5 pro will surely pass d 200$ mark...... Na there d wahala go de

Elslim:
nah nah the selling point of Xiaomi midrangers have always been a price tag of below 200$

4llerbuntu:
sigh, i'm so disappointed.

To think i've been delaying buying a device to see what this will be.

its the physical design thats annoying me the most sef. no difference since redmi note 3

other than selfie light, i don't even see any difference in the redmi note phones since note 3

and its still micro usb

AlvaroMorata:
This confirms the assertion that Redmi 5 plus is the Note 5.. maybe this same Note 5pro will be launched as Note 5 in China.

eleojo23:
Exactly...I did not see any difference

Gptech:
That so called note 5 better not be, na Redmi 5 plus b dat .

Mediatek phones are phones that use the mediatek SOC (system on Chip).
By SOC roughly means the array of CPU,GPU( Graphic Processing Unit) and other processing unit in the phone hardware.


In simple terms you know how laptops are either Made with Intel Cpu and others made with AMD.
Mediatek is like the AMD of phones.

Mediatek are cheap SOC hardware made for cheap companies that produce phones with generic specs, eg Tecno, infinix , Gionee.
1. They have limited performance and speed,most are still based on 2012 arm cortex A7 just with overclocked CPU.

2. They hardly get update cause the chip come together with the software from the mediatek company,
So basically all these phones have same firmware just different skins and themes developed by the phone manufacturers.

3. They get obsolete fast ,a mediatek SOC can only accommodate improvement in app demands for a year.
After a year they get very laggy.
Samsung s4 5year old snapdragon/exynos is still very smooth and efficient even with all the improvement in app demand.

All these shortcomings are the major reason the SELLING POINTS OF MEDIATEK PHONES ARE THERE EXTREMELY LARGE BATTERIES.



Which are the better SOCs?? >>>
Snapdragon, Exynos, Tegra , and Apple cpu(which is manufactured by Samsung)

eleojo23:
I decided not talk lest I be labelled a Xiaomi marketer.
