You never heard of Redmi 5 Plus called Redmi Note 5 India?

What is my business with what it's called in India?

As long as it's called redmi 5 plus here, I have no concern with what it's called elsewhere. The only time the variation in name should be of concern to me is if I'm buying my goods from an Indian merchant, in that case I will have to tell him I need redmi note 5 pro if it's redmi note 5 I want, and redmi note 5 if it's redmi 5+ I want.

These variation in names have been explicitly discussed here. I don't think anybody who has gone through the discussions should still be confused about it.

Solomon27:
Yes. But You can correct me.

I only know
Xiaomi redmi note 5 pro (only for India)
Redmi note 5 (sold every other parts of the world including Nigeria, which has artificial intelligence)

Sommydisaster:
latest update...... Xiaomi smart LED TV

I read reviews on their TV.. I believe it was too expensive for the spec.

Hisense offers superb spec for decent amount.

Solomon27:
Thanks. Yes.


Redmi Note 5 (Redmi 5 Plus) differs from Redmi Note 5 with dual cameras (AI)

Are you saying there are 3 variants of redmi note 5?

Eg,

Redmi note 5 pro (India)
Redmi note 5
Redmi note 5 AI?

Is that what you are saying?

Is it Redmi Note 5 AI?[/quote


Yes.

Note that AI stands for artificial intelligence. That's what note 5 is called.


Note 5 sold around this part of the world is note 5 with dual rear cameras.

@Mayorall can I pay for an item on Amazon and get it shipped directly to your USA address for you to ship to me in Nigeria at your shipping rate? There's a health item I want to buy.

Max 3 out

The issue of redmi note 5 vs redmi note 5 pro is a bit challenging for some xiaomi fans. This Wikipedia article clearly explains it.

People outside India should forget about redmi note 5 pro except you have somebody in India who will buy it for you.

Good day Guys,

I'm a newbie here,
I want to order for a Redmi Note 5 3gb ROM, 32gb RAM, 4000MAh, with Back dual Camera 12MP & 5MP and 13Mp front camera.

It's on Aliexpress. I would love to know if there will be additional fees asides Aliexpress shipping fee which costs about $4.20.

I've painstakingly saved up that money and I hope I won't be getting to pay extra charges when it lands here in Nigeria.

PLEASE Advice me biko.

If you decide to buy from a reseller, you can chat me up. I have just one gold color available @69l.

Dmedalion please let's know this individual and am pretty sure you would have trusted this said person based on his/her popularity on this thread. I believe you can get to the root of this case and find closure in the process. The thing that irked me the most is that the said person trusted you enough to get a buyer but can't let you take delivery of the phone before payment is made. Name and shame please.

I'm in full support of this. Pls name the person let him or her also give their part of the issue. I think we owe each other here the duty of being transparent in our dealings and when someone feels aggrieved, he/she should be able to bring the matter here for resolution and to also prevent others from falling into the same circumstance matted out by the culprit.

This is terrible. Chai.

Dmedalion:
Currently trying to resolve a similar issue I helped a purpular name on this thread sell....that asked me to help him get a buyer on his few months old 4x..(buyers ain't an issue 4 me)

Out of trust I offered him and took care of the waybilling with my own pay..he withheld the item by logistics that without buyer paying fully they shouldn't release item..
And it's my job to deliver item to buyer in my own state...had to pay for d device den took to client..coz I knew d cash for device wasn't his issue...
Now it all turned out device was bad in a way that needs time to notice.... Trust Trust!!!! some persons r here to throw away faulty products
To everyone Verify used items well B4 buying ..
The device is now back my hands ..so I'm at loss...

nabeans:
Guy, walahi, laff wan kee me here as I dey read your post about people and trust issues. E no easy for una marketers. Still, no real harm in macbey airing the issue. He didn't post any name of the prospective if I recall correctly, and it's stimulated a healthy discourse on the matter for people in the Thread to wade in with their views/opinions. In the end I think we are all the beneficiaries for having read and contributed.

Exactly my point bro. It was not even about the buyer nor about me. It's about discourse and enlightenment. Bottom line is..... It's no use starting a business conversation with someone whom you can't trust. That's actually the message that should be gleaned from this.

DrollyForce:
Thanks Grandmufti, the casing isnt obstructing the lens.. To be frank, im not impressed with the quality of the front camera.

By the way, is there a way i can change all the chinese apps to english version.. Like the mi music.. Does the global rom have the english version of those apps?

Global version has almost nothing like Chinese in it. Why not flash global rom in?

Global version has almost nothing like Chinese in it. Why not flash global rom in?

The person is just doing what I could've done if I ordered a year or 2 ago.. But now I don't know why I'm not afraid about trusting people with my money anymore.. I ordered from nobody too for the first time and I'm still waiting. Seriously I don't see anything that is wrong in him doubting you and I don't see anything wrong in your answer.. But what I see wrong is you posting it here.. What is to be discussed about it.. He doesn't have a right to doubt because he has seen your reputation online? .. Haven't we seen a thread here where fake sellers drop reviews for themselves. So if you don't know what we see here is not enough for trust.. That's just it

My reason for posting it here is that I want the issue discussed, and also to pass that message that it's no use chatting a seller up, making him/her send you full spec, pictures and reviews of a product if you doubt his or her credibility.

I would have agreed that it was wrong to have posted it here if I had released any detail about the person. In this case, I don't think I agree with you on that.

I have actually had customers who doubted my credibility and had to do my best to convince them. Some even still doubted until we found a way to do face to face transaction. However, I appreciated those ones because they came with their own trust issue at the beginning of our conversation and it was handled. I feel to engage someone exhaustively for a very long while, then coming up with that line was a bit unfair.

proclivity:
duely noted, this is and has always been a challenge, it is not a new situation. untill online sellers find a way around it, we will keep talking about this over and over, a solution is what is needed not the obvious challenge/problem. business isnt static, jumia,ali express,amazon with their credibility do not talk about their challenges in public they propagate their successes, while looking for means to overcome their challenges.

Thumbs up.

proclivity:
despite your reviews always treat every client like its the first time of doing business with you....keep reassuring them despite the constant inquiry, you wont blame them people are basically paranoid, the times are not helping either. in my own opinion try and fit into the shoes of your prospective clients. best regards

I wish I could screenshot the earlier conversations. Maybe you would see reason why I had to tell him to trust his instinct, which is also not a bad advise to give to someone who's unnecessarily paranoid.


One of my business person, I haven't seen her before. I don't even know her but someone here on nairaland whom I have also not met before referred her.

My first transaction with that lady I paid 750k to her account without knowing whether she would deliver or not. I just had to give her that benefit of the doubt.

Being excessively paranoid isn't such a good thing because it might restrict one to only interacting with his/her immediate environment as opposed to a world of opportunities.

.

After having 2 days discussion with a prospective buyer who chatted me up. That last question really took me aback. I wonder why he contacted me if he couldn't trust me, not to mention the numerous reviews here.

I think it's high time we mi8 users create our own thread or whatsapp group. The note 5 pro noise is too much too bear.

Hope we are not becoming a sort of fraternity.

That's kind of you bro. You still give support after the massive discount and saving us the hassle of waiting for a month. Thanks bro

You are highly welcome.

So I finally got hold of my redmi note 5 from maceybyland, very nice dude.
I updated the software to mui 9.5.13.0 immediately I inserted my sim. However, I noticed that the battery is not as good as y'all are taunting to be here. My redmi 4x battery lasts longer compare with note 5 pro. Heck even my old fashioned redmi 4a battery would give this note 5 run for it's money.
Could this be software issue or the battery isn't good?
