Benedict44:

It haven't arrived your local post office so chill. It might still be at IMPC self.

Caleb4show:
What could be the cause for xiaomi to stop call recording after note 7

It a big deal for me

US and EU Privacy laws targeted at Chinese companies since the Huawei issues started.

losdiose:
Can one get call recording app?

If yes, please recommend.

Cynsee:

tonididdy:
Please anyone knows if fidelity bank cards work on AE and maybe their rates?

The rate is around ₦400

haykay2005:
Pls, which of the xiaomi note (global version) is available between 50k and 60k.

Redmi 8 or Redmi Note 7

Olodo24:
My Redmi Note 7 has started charging too slowly. What could be the problem?

I'm using the original charger that came with it

Use a brown to remove dirt from your charging port, also blow air into it.

Try another USB Cable as well with your charger. Also Try another 10W charger with your Original Cable and observe changes and report back.

hisholar2:
I got it now bro but instead of restore it brought update. The phone is 9s and thanks for your time bro

Restore was used in Older versions. Enjoy your phone and the Gcam works with the 3 back Cameras for both photo and videos

judeebuka:
Makes sense.
In my opinion, companies competing in this Smartphone business are Samsung, Hauwei, and Apple (in that order).

The world order is changing. There are many trends that Xiaomi set. They started the craze for bezeless phones with high screen to body ratio with the first Mix. The Mi Mix Alpha was a wonderful concept which the next Mix 4 will be built on. They are also in line to release a phone with an under display camera. The company that produce the displays for the Mi Mix Alpha, Mi Note 10 and Mi 10 series, Visionox recently announced that they have perfected the tech. Aa

The Chinese firms are quickly taking over innovation. Samsung have just lost a title they have held for close to a decade to Huawei.

Even Apple is built and assembled in China by Foxconn who as well assemble phones for other tech companies.

It will only get interesting.

In the TV Market TCL is now a major Threat to Samsung and LG. This is a company that wasn't too known not long ago.

judeebuka:
And also Guys, Samsung DepthVision Camera is a Time of Flight (ToF) camera on Galaxy S20+ and S20 Ultra that can judge depth and distance to take your photography to new
levels. ... Quick Measure is a preloaded
app on Galaxy Note10+ and so, you can open the app and put an object in focus to get a real-
time measurement right on your screen.

Great feature from Samsung tho!!!

Huawei used ToF sensors first though

judeebuka:
Okay if you say so.
depth sensors contain a monochrome CMOS sensor and infrared projector that helps create 3D imagery throughout a room.
which makes 3D image manipulation easier especially when working in OpenCV & Computer Vision frameworks that may require depth/3D analysis.
Not like i called depth sensors 3D. But if you're cool with that.

Stay safe man.

When you have a Telephoto Sensor, you don't need a Depth sensor. A ToF sensor is even better than the depth sensor if at all you must use one.

Most tech reviewers says they(depth sensor) should be dumped because digital algorithm which Google have proven can be used to achieve portrait shots.

Same as having an ultrawide and a macro lens desperately unnecessary when the Ultrawide can also be used to take Macro shots.

Have a nice night.

hisholar2:
Bro abeg I dey dsame shoe with that guy but I no understand your explanation about the configs. I tried to follow the illustration but I no still get am, can u be more explanatory plz?

For which phone? I hope it is RN9s or RN9S Pro?

I have explained this over and over and it is becoming exhausting. Download the APK and the XML file from the link provided.

1. Install the Gcam

2. Now for this particular GCam create a folder as follow and make sure the Casing and spelling is followed to the letter.
When you see a directory instructions as follows GCam/onfire/Configs7 it is explained below

a.In your internal Storage Create a folder called GCam

b. In the Created GCam folder, create another folder called onfire

C. Open the onfire folder created and create another folder called Configs7

3. Copy and paste the downloaded XML/config File into the folder Configs7

4. Open GCam and use the instructions on the image below

If you still don't get it then you are the problem.

You're giving me screenshots on AnTuTu benchmark ratings, like i don't know about it...Lol.
Maybe i should remind you also that the Mi10 Pro 5g lacks a depth sensor (3D)

you know, when you suggested that i should learn more about smartphone comparisons,
i started criticizing my own effort; until i saw the part where you said that you care less about IP ratings.
IP ratings (what makes a smartphone complete)
i'm not surprised, honestly.
Do have a great night.

Calling a depth Sensor 3D shows you know nothing boy. Yes I called you a Boy.

Those were DXOMARK not Antutu.

Ovie56:
Of all the flagship phones 2020 out there S20 has the worst main camera, the 108MP Is a lot of mess, it can't even focus.

You are trying to educate people who see Camon 15 Premier as flagship, they will never understand.

Best Audio speakers on a smartphone and is still disrespected. OP go and learn how to make comparisons it is not an insult.

Samsung Galaxy S20 Ultra cameras that is plagued with autofocus problems.

Samsung and Xiaomi developed the 108MP but each choose a different path of implementation. Xiaomi using a 4x1 binning and have a default output of 27MP also using HIEF output encoding (Image version of HEVC) to bring down the sizes of their pictures while Samsung resulted to 9x1 binning with 12MP Outputs which they paid dearly for.

I don't have time for long talks.

Display - Samsung
Camera - Xiaomi
Audio - Xiaomi
Performance - Xiaomi outclassed it. Antutu benchmarks are there to look at.
Design - Subjective.
IP Ratings - Samsung (For me I don't care about them)

losdiose:
I just finished transferring files from my other fone to my new RN9s. Some apps refused to install, saying something about system policy.

The Config folder directory is GCam/onfire/Configs7 then you paste XML file. It is case sensitive

Thanks bro. I have put both the GPS and scanning off

Enjoy your phone

TrebleChamp:
Sir genius, is their any real difference between the note 9 pro max for India and it's global version note 9 pro?

Only Selfie 32Mp Vs 16MP yet the 32MP captures 8MP photos so I don't really see it as a deal breaker

Alfred234:
Well Gsmarena and Wikipedia says otherwise unless if maybe the Note 8 uses the GM1 and the Note 8T uses the GM2

Note 8T uses GM1. Confirm from Kimovil in specs details Kimovil are better and they update their details after realease and testing.

Below are screenshot showing the sensors

sofdoc1:
They werent charging for cost of repairs na, when did that one start?

Says who? A 10months old is billed ₦9000 for battery replacement and charging board. What happened to warranty? This is one of many.

semid4lyfe:
Patience is a virtue so I'll wait for the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max.

Which Pro Max. You don't get that Pro Max is India and Redmi Note 9 Pro is Global?

You will have to travel to India to get the Redmi Note 9 Pro Max.

Amocee:
Bleep! 63 days. The zip I inputted wasn't complete. 110 instead of 110104. What's the implication of that.

This is one detail you should not mess with. Cc:Jboixxx

Fongido:
in Akwa Ibom

If there is a slot or Pointek store there they sell global version and note Global Version come in White Carton.

Amocee:
Hello friends.
I ordered for an item on the 18th of May. The expected delivery date is 5th to 20th of June. The tracking information page hasn't shown delivered yet. The buyer's protection is 90 days. I have about 63 days or so left. Should the delivery date be followed or the buyer's protection period.
Another is that how can I get to know which post office the goods get delivered to cos I don't have any in my area at all. I live in Ogun state. I'll appreciate your quick replies

Buyers protection period.

Delivery is done to a post office nearest your zip code, hope you provided the correct information in that aspect.

Bahddo:
Redmi note 9 pro?

Redmi Note 9S 128GB and it is 93k.

Redmi Note 9 Pro base version will be over 100k

ChocolateHigh:
I thought its superior to note 9pro?

Stop confusing Indian naming with Global stick with following Global releases because those are the ones you are more likely to end up buying.

Read the below

Alfred234:
Note 9s uses the same camera sensor as the one on the Note 8 so i doubt if the camera will be better than that of Note 8 pro.
The Note 9 pro should be better

Wrong.

Redmi Note 9S uses a Samsung GM2 sensor.
Redmi Note 8, Redmi Note 7 and Redmi Note 9 uses the older Samsung GM1 48MP sensor.

RN9 Pro and RN8 Pro uses the same Samsung GW1 64MP sensor.

With the improvements done on the GM2 with the right optimization and Algorithm the sensor is good.

Fongido:
Please someone should guide me before I make wrong decision.

I wanna buy Redmi note 8 4gb/64gb

how much is the device?? which one is global version how can I know the right one

Where are you buying the phone from?

I don't get what you mean by wrong decision?
