fineboynl: it depends on what you mean by clear.
the camera cannot be compare with outdated Samsung S4 camera which also has 13mp. That's because camera quality is not dependent on just mega pixels. What matters is the quality of the sensors used. When you are talking of SUVs a.k.a 'jeep', you don't mention the likes of Rav4 where you have the Prados and Land Cruisers of this world. Even Sony that makes camera sensors for most phone manufacturers, has 8 MP and 12 MP sensors better and more expensive than some of their recent and outdated 13 MP sensors. So forget about the mega pixel thing. |

toludadon: Thanks bro. So what could be wrong with my transactions? Could it be thag it's because the card is an Australian card ordering for items to Nigeria, hence the red flag about the possibility of it being stolen? Each time I click appeal page, it brings error. I chatted with one of their Customer Care agents and he confirmed that they don't accept MasterCard debit. I'll take it as he doesn't know what he was saying. Please what is the way forward or should I just go ahead and reorder? I believe it's because of the Australian card, in fact it should be, I had similar experience last year when trying to order for a phone from Geekbuying using a South African PayPal account. Transaction was declined and had to wait for about a week for Paypal to refund. Maybe similar issue is affecting your Australian card. |

GrandMufti: It's quite decent with Good bass. It's an 'in-ear' earphone, so you have to stick it in properly to enjoy it. Once it's 'in' forget any background noise 
I think it's durable. I'll send screenshots later. But there are higher versions of it Yeah very good earpiece, so far I can say it's been durable, pple don borrow tire,but this delivers even better sound, better bass, it's louder and has less frequency distortion when the bass and volume are increased.

Norman4real: i beg to differ... While its true that mtk has a lot of low end chips doesn't mean it's not good for gaming. Look at the x20 mtk chip for example, it gives 10 cores, with frequencies of upto 2.4Ghz and Mali T880 mp8 GPU. How is that not suitable for gaming. But the x20 is not a low end chip, its the flagship from Mediatek. |

primeson1: Finally, my note 3 pro screen has cracked.
Checked Ali and I couldn't get original screen, the ones available are not original and sells for $20.69 roughly 6,700 naira.
I contacted xiaomi nigeria Facebook account, I was told to go to harmony phones, Ikeja city mall to change the screen. I hope they will have the original replacement.
That's my fear with brands that don't have offline presence in nigeria.
Use your phones with utmost care peeps...
The phone still works fine though.
I'm at a crossroad. Sorry for the damage, but did you have a screen protector before the incident? |

ArewaTech1: Hey!, Im talking about the Mi 5s and not the Mi 5 and to me, Carlcare is not an option.
I have my Tecno Phantom Z A7, which I mistakenly slept on and the screen went off(there's no crack on the touch) and I'd been to Carlcare more than several times, when ever I go there, they keep telling me "We don't have that screen now, come next week". (You could imaging going there next week for the next 52 weeks!). To cut it short up till tomorrow My Precious Phantom Z doesn't have a screen, and all thanks to Carlcare.
Guys I need your help, should i go with Mi5s 128gb or Gionee M6 128gb(+sdcard). Both with 4gb ram. Note: Price and Storage doesn't matter for me. What I need is real life using comparisons, Lag, Best Camera, battery drain, etc. thanks guys. P10 vs Snapdragon 821 Pro
AND PLEASE STOP TALKING ABOUT carlcare. THEY SUCKS, ATLEAST TO ME. Bros, you have even upped the game, none of those phones stand a chance against the mi5, and you are even talking of the mi5s, get the mi5s and get rest of mind biko, the only thing the M6 has over it is the battery backup, but in terms of every other thing, I mean EVERYOTHER thing, they are not mates at all! You should be comparing the Mi5s to a Samsung Galaxy s7. I believe I have said my last. And for those afraid of parts for xiaomi phones, you can check the Xioami thread for testimonies, you can even get the screen for far cheaper price than you get the so called available screens in the Nigerian market. Before I run there is also a pro version of the mi5, it has 4gig ram and 128gig rom also, you might also want to check that out |
