Please nairalanders, I want to buy a refurbished xiaomi redmi note 3 but I'm scared if the phone will still be very good as it was new.

2. I also need someone to give me details on how strong the battery is. How many hours can the battery use on heavy usage before it dies of for rednote 3

3. Is the phone dual SIM I.e. can I use my two Sims and my memory card at the same time?

Please I need ur review house most importantly on the battery of the phone before I purchase, someone please help

Better you buy a lower new phone. The sim slot is hybrid, meaning you can't use two sims and memory card at thesame time. Battery on the note 3 used to be good, but I doubt if the one you plan to get will still be ok. Lastly, the note 3 has two variants, one with Mtk with Helio X10 processor that is battery sucker, also lacks any support for memory card, and there is the note 3 with snapdragon 650- this is what you should get if you are so keen on your decision.

Thank God for the good news. This is the scriptural point of view.
Personal observations:-
1) Armed robbers stood confidently in front of Police station to rob with reckless abandon!!!!!
2.) Police later recovered the stolen vehicle with surprising amount of efficiency that same day!!!!!!
3.) Police demanded a hefty amount as recovery charge!!!!
4.) Connecting the dots from points 1 - 3 above, isn't it possible for the entire robbery and recovery arrangement be structured by our dear police - just with the aim of "recovering" it and earn reputation & cool cash as duly deserved gratification for the so called "spectacular job done"
**** I'm just thinking aloud o.

With the Nigerian Police, this is highly possible.

Tor guys they found my car ooo, police called me around 6pm that my car was traced and immobilized at ilishan remo after the lagos-benin express way, wen i got to igbogila, i saw the car very dirty and rough but what surprised me most is that the fuel tank is full where as in the morning it was almost empty cuz i was even planning to buy fuel dis morning befofe the incident, moreover i was also surprised how fast they recovered the car, buh trust Nigeria police, they collect 40k from me before they release the car to me.i really appreciate ur prayers and support, as this year is going to an end may you all never have any reason to weep, thank you so much family, and i love u all. Twins are Also saying thank you sirs and ma

Guys I am typing this with an heavy and saddened heart, wifey went into labor around 4:13 this morning and i put her inside the car to take her there, when we get to the police station at igbogila, we saw some men who stopped us and ask us where we are going and i told them, i thought they are police officers not knowing they are men of the underworld, they ask us to come down and hand over all our valuables and the car key, i begged them to let me picked the baby stuffs at the back seat which dey drop for me and zoomed off. I was so surprised that they have the guts to rob infront of a police station. We started trekking till we get to church bus stop before we now see a good Samaritan that took us to the hospital at meiran.my new realme 2pro was inside the car too.although i am happy because wifey gave birth to two boys at around past 6am. I av lodge a complaint at the station and the car is been tracked. The car is a 2012 benz c300 white colour and the glass jz tinted. I dont know if i shd drop the reg nos here. But incase u see any abandoned car dat match the description, pls let me know on 08105543265. Thanks and u are all invited to the naming next week.

Thank God for life, this is actually good news. The thing this county dey turn to dey beyond comprehension .

Ok Thanks.....I Just Hope They Give Me A Sealed CN Version When I Ask....And Another Question I've Never Updated A Phone Before But Since I See Updates Of 1gb And My Phone Doesn't Support SD Card Slots Where Does The Update Go Does That Mean I Would Fill Up My Small Space With Nothing But Updates??

The updates are not usually saved in your phone after updating, even it is(manual update), you can always delete after updating

Maxcoded:
Only that Mi Global Store is kinda slow in processing order and it's just because of the thousands orders already in ground

You can imagine someone having almost 2k orders to process for just a product...... The owner of that store will be some god damn millionaire by now

Leave their tory, most of dem get plenty orders too, some sellers dey use that stunt to buy time wen dem nr actually get phones in stock.

Trex4:
Gptech Please Tonke Digital and Mi Global Store Who's More Responsible??

They are all good.

Maxcoded:
You even get time to dey answer the guy; everybody knows he is lying and that's why he got little to no attention...

Oga if you are reading this, that phone is useless for you as you can't break the security. You can do the phone owner some good by stylishly returning it.

Don't worry, I have got some handy ways you can return the phone if you can't think of any... Mail me

, real table shaker!

Jackossky:
I should just click on the update and it wouldn't brick or have any problem? What are the cons I might encounter while updating it? Perhaps, should the network lags, won't it affect the update functioning?
After updating, will there be a memory loss or do I have to recover any data?

Also, how can I get my camera info to display while taking shots

Awaits your reply tech.

Ensure you have good network reception before updating. There won't be any loss of data, everything will be intact. For the camera info (watermark), don't think that option is available for your device, maybe after updating you might get it, not sure though.

genabc:
Please how much is this, is it on sale?

It's on sale but that image is fake.

Gurus in the house, how can I update my redmi 5plus without bricking (What am i saying sef? Without damaging) my phone?

Not that I don't like how it is,just want to update it to its full potentials. There are some lags on it that I noticed like
1)The screen rotation: should I tilt my phone sideways and switch off the screen rotation, it suddenly stays that way. Normally, switching off your screen rotation, your phone ought return to portrait mode but my redmi 5 plus stays landscape. I have to hold it upright and switch off the rotation before it becomes portrait.

2) The flashlight: It's in automatic mode but before you take shot,(Front camera or back)the light stays on. Though, it recognises dark places , but I thought the flashlight should only 'flash' the moment you take the shot and not before/on/after taking shot.

3) The android version still remains 7.1.2, how can I upgrade it to Oreo or p**. Also, with what I'm reading, seems to be more goodies in Miui 10, mine still stuck at Miui 9.5 Global/stable(Negmifa)

Lastly, the phone is more than superb. May it not get spoilt in Jesus Name...

1. You are getting the whole rotation thing wrong. If rotation is highlighted it means rotation is 'off'. Check the screenshot.

2. The flash light is meant to work the way it is, it needs to light first in order to focus on the object before snapping.

3. There is already Oreo update for your device, just update.

Not Redmi Note 4x. It's Redmi 4x

Ooo, sorry, still how much?

imsirkay:

Born2conquer:

You need to order na, why the rush?

HowGlorious:
Are you saying Orders shipped with China Post Registered Air Mail with tracking number starting with RP... would not get to Nigeria?

Do you have one?

maclawrence02:
redmi note 2. my redmi note 5 is enroute, though it has been stuck on hand over to airline since thursday.

This na correct upgrade oooo. So wetin go happen to note 2 after 5 arrives?

sanandreas:
But I think China registered airmail is fast. The best is Singapore post, then followed by AliExpress standard shipping. You get goods third week.

Singapore post and Aliexpress Standard Shipping na dsame, both na Singapore post. Though I don see where seller use another logistics as Aliexpress Standard Shipping, some sellers can be dubious sha. Imagine one seller gimme 1 kind stupid tracking number and claim to to be China registered Airmail, d moment I open dispute na instant victory, Aliexpress even shock for that kind tracking number .
See tracking details, that 'P' at least suppose be 'Y'. See the second screenshot, tracking details of life .

Modified : there is confirmation that the 'P' doesn't matter, its a correct naming order, just that in my case, seller gave me a fake tracking number, and its the first time am getting a tracking number with that naming order.
