Mrviktor:
Wow
I understand nothing here.

Noise blike those dots you get on tvs without signal grin

. You normally notice noise when you zoom in your pictureThe higher the ISO the brighter the picture but the higher the noise.
You must learn photography angry

.
In photography you can get a well exposed (bright enough) picture by playing with 3 parameters - ISO, Aperture (or f number), and shutter speed.
The higher the ISO, the brighter the picture
The lower the ' f number', the brighter the picture
The lower the shutter speed, the brighter the picture.
To get a good picture you need to set these parameters properly.
Let's summarize these parameters with their cons :
The higher the ISO, the brighter the picture but the higher the noise.

The lower the f number or aperture, the brighter the picture, but the softer the corners of the picture. This is bad for group pictures if set too low. (An aperture of F1. 8 is brighter than F2.8, it will give you excellent portrait shots of a single individual but will blur out people's face at the ends of a group picture).

The lower the shutter speed, the brighter the picture but the higher the chance of getting a picture with motion blur (you know the blurry look of the picture you get when trying to snap a dancing newly wedded couple in a poor lit hall). You also get to face blurry pictures from a little sometimes invisible shaking of your hands. You can snap someone who poses for you with a shutter speed of say 1/80s so as to get a bright enough picture, but if you use same speed to snap a man who is walking, you'll get a blurry image. You'll need to increase the shutter speed to say 1/200s to get a picture of that man without blur.

Lastly, you cannot adjust the aperture of mobile phone cameras, Samsung tried but it's just two adjustments.
The pics below explain noise.

After a few years, some of you will be really ashamed of yourselves. Imagine just because of ordinary phone, una dey brag. Even people with landed properties nr dey brag na phone owners. The kind of responses person dey see here na just d true reflection of a typical Nigerian. Abeg, make una use style reflect on some of the posts wen una don make. If for instance people from developed parts of the world view some of our comments ehn, I wonder if d kind eye dem go dey use look us. Abeg make everybody do d right thing, think before you comment.

. Both of them even though they are not flagships. I think only the Redmi note 5 got that even in the Redmi note series

Bro, i work at Dangote Refinery... This Redmi fell from same height wey the Samsung a20 take fall from....i just tell my guy wey dey down say make him komot my simcard, i tell am am say I no go use smartphone again till this project finish... The guy picked my phone come shout tell me say the phone still dey ON, i ask am wetin him mean 'on' ?.. Him say nothing do the screen... I bin think say him dey whine me till i climb down!
I bin want naked for night swear for Samsung but.. My people say make i no go mad for nothing , i come kam down.

If i yarn una wetin infinix don do me... Everybody go begin cry for here ....infact e no go ever better for Itel.

So bro, i know say every phone fit break, but phone strong pass phone

About your last paragraph, a stronger phone can get broken while a weaker one can remain intact if dropped from same height at the same time. The reason is they can't land on the floor exactly same way, plus the structural weak point of different phones are located at different positions. Point is you should be careful, your phone screen might get broken from lesser heights.

Except things have changed on newer models or I never took notice, through my soujourn of flashing different types of rom with my Custom recovery(including stock recovery rom), it has never overwritten my custom recovery.
Na Fastboot rom dey overwrite everything from my experience. I might put it to test and check sha.

We learn everyday.

It actually overwrites custom recovery, I mean Recovery Rom. Maybe you have always used a modded TWRP.

My Redmi 5 plus is not recognizing any sim. I was told to do factory reset which I did but the problem persist. Memory card is working but sims are not.

Anyone experienced this before?

When did this start? Were you trying to flash anything on it?

The portrait option in the mi 9t pro is done by the telephoto lens, which means you'll have to go closer to the subject just like in iPhones.

I think this is like the opposite. With telephoto, you are not supposed to move towards the object, telephoto actually zooms closer to the object. If anything you should be moving back so as to get the object within the frame.

Between the Zsn pro and the uiisii hmm, which is the better value for money considering their prices

Will say zsn pro because of durability. But if money is not an issue get both. The UiiSii is also durable but the cord starts breaking after some time, though it doesn't affect it but puts it at risk of getting damaged. You can give it a form of local protection to avoid this.
