Is it terrible?

I over exaggerated there..

The notification light is just slow and one colour. Like Xiaomi just put spoilt notification light of one old blackberry phone.

Like when you put side mirror of kabu kabu for brand new Bentley..

use the manual brightness instead of auto

Iono. Adaptive brightness is too fancy to let go of.

I'd just like better clarity under bright sunlight. That's all

Gptech:
The coloured notification is not a mistake, they deliberately removed it starting with the Redmi 4x of last year. If you want it so badly you can get the Redmi note 4x , it's a reason I find it hard to let go of the device, so used to coloured notifications.

Xiaomi just playing with feelings outchea..

Go back 2-3 years for notification light or live with a terrible one in the present

maximum brightness is about 450 nits, flagship phones from Samsung n co reaches about 800 nits in auto brightness when in sun. If you don use flagships b4, its quite obvious that the screen isn't that bright in sunlight. But for 200$ its good enough 200$ self no go buy some sammy replacement screen

Lol. I think this explains it now..

Well thank you

Ok but it seem you are still on Miui 9.5 or so? Why not upgrade to Miui 10 and see if any difference? Attached is what the panel looks like now

Good to know you're well grounded on the Auto brightness thingy but have you tried testing the light sensors on the front panel to make sure it's working correctly?

Sincerely speaking, I've used my RN5 under the hottest and brightest Sun light without visibility issues... I might be wrong though

Lol. Thank you. I've received a notification for the update. I'll update soon enough

I've tested the light sensors and they work fine. Maybe it's my eyes. I don't know

No. 1
This can be resolved via apps on play store or when Xiaomi decides to issue a fix via software update

No. 2
This already exist on the device. Enable Automatic Brightness level under Display menu on your device settings.

No. 3
You basically got the quality commensurate to the cost of the device. It's not a flagship device so a lot is traded away to make it cheap.

Enjoy your device and shut your eyes or ears to negativity

No it can't. I have tried. Plus I'm hoping xiaomi does something about it. That's basically what I typed up there..

Did you see the part where I typed that even at maximum brightness it's still difficult to see? Check unboxing videos on YouTube. The unboxers have complained about the same thing. I think I do sort of understand the concept of automatic brightness fairly enough, I wouldn't be using it if I didn't.

Got the Note5 and I absolutely love the phone to bits. It's very immersive and aesthetic when compared to its mates in the same spec or price level.

I appreciate the fact that as much as xiaomi tries to bring the best of specs at very affordable prices, but there are few areas they seriously need to work on. Not to sound like an Oliver twist (because with the pricing, this phone company doesn't owe us any better IMO) but there are three major areas I feel needs work on the note 5.

1. The notification light on the RN5.

My second smartphone was a Sony Xperia V. At that time, it was a worthy gladiator with mad specs. I was the envy of many. I got so familiar with my phone so much so that the notification light was sort of perfectly interactive. I knew if I had twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Quora notifications because I enabled distinctive colours for the different apps on my phone. Once my light goes green, I have WhatsApp messages, blue for twitter, red for Quora, and so on. It didn't blink like it was hungry and weak just as the Note5 does. The lighting was perfect and on time. This technology was perfected by Sony in 2011.. I think xiaomi can do something here, because one of the reasons I went for this phone is because of the notification light and I'm not impressed at all.

2. I don't know if it's just me, but I still try to shade my screen under sunlight to check my phone. Even at maximum brightness, I still can't see what's on the screen when I'm under the sun. Another area that definitely needs to be improved..

3. The camera.

At first I wasn't insecure about my RN5 camera because compared to where I was coming from, I had made a huge step up with the Note5. It takes brilliant shots. Colours are nice. People still envy me. But then I started making research about this gcam I'm seeing everywhere on this thread and it turns out that as much as I think my camera is a god compared to these Infinix and Tecno phones littered everywhere, it can get better. I know Xiaomi is capable of such software engineering or maybe tweak the stock camera a little bit to perform a lit bit better, just a little. Because if they can at least try to focus on this aspect, they'll win much more fans from Apple and the rest.

But I love this phone all the same.
