Whizpeter:
Somebody should answer me na.

Is this update stable? Should I or should I not?

RN7? You're two updates behind. They're all stable.

Ifedith:
My experience, gcam is best for low light photos while stock for day time photos...

On RN7? Gcam is better for both.

henry007:
Why are people getting screen protectors for the Redmi Note7? Are people not well informed?

It scratches and since it's glass, it can break. Forget the gorilla glass ish.

Again, never give up.

Your last effort when it seems it's all over can mark your breakthrough...

gsparks01:
this one must be a barca fan. Only way to explain this brain fart. He's still pained.

Didn't even see this one before I made that post

Betmaster3:
Well, Fvck her! The Idi0t goes about quoting people and pokenoising. I repeat, Fvck her!

You must be a Barca fan, so much anger

IKON360:

IKON360:

IKON360:

Mckandre:
yea but when the screen breaks, don't come here to remind us how bad the economy is.

My hand no dey o

If you can buy the phone, you should be able to afford the screen. I always include the price of a replacement screen in my budget when I'm buying a phone.

I already know that that of RN7 is about $42 for complete with frame.

Barcelona came to Anfield 4 nothing, not even 4 extra time


Salah knows all

If PSG can beat Barca 4-0 and Roma 3-0 on their turfs, why can't Liverpool do it?

But something tells me Messi will spoil the show

bro nor be quarrel o
I like the A50 because of the amoled, if money too Dey I'll get it but if not I'll go with the N7.
I just wanted to here your opinion on what I pointed out

I'm sure you'll not regret the A50 if you can afford it. If you can't, I'm sure you'll not regret the N7 too. It's a very capable device.

OCTAVO:
Wow... Interesting. @Osyxcel

Yes, it is interesting. I'm sure it come down to about #120k soon since it's still new.

OCTAVO:
Samsung Galaxy A70 6gb/128gb is around 150k. I think that's still fair enough.

I think they can still do better.

genius43:
Their Midrangers are still not still there yet in affordability.

That's subjective anyway, but I agree with you. Maybe they can do slightly better.

maclawrence02:
Bros you don talk your own no wahala,
enjoy your overpriced Samsung!
While I enjoy my xiaomi with shikini money!!

Lol. Oga I'm using Redmi Note 7. I'm just open minded.

OCTAVO:
Why I prefer xiaomi products to Samsung for now:
-IR blaster
-Second space
-Dual apps.

If Samsung can include these features in their A and M series, then I'm moving back to Samsung. This is also why I have not moved to oneplus.

Thank you for this objective comment.

OCTAVO from M3 days

Mykcool:
calm down, slow down!!

After everything you now added the bolded.
You said the A50 is better than the N7P abi? Is the A50 better than A70 also ?

Calm down na. I said I'd pick A50 over N7P. It's all about what you're looking for na. I'm not a game freak, especially on phones. Gone are the days.

Likewise, I'd pick A50 over A70 because I don't really like screens that are too large. Phone manufacturers are making that impossible day by day though.

It all depends on personal choices. If you're a gamer, I'd say pick N7P over A50. But if you're looking for a more balanced performance with a crisp screen, go for A50.

Mykcool:
based on this your analogy, the A50 is better than the A70 ?? Because na the same dragon Dey A70 and N7P

A70 should be better. Powerful CPU, better camera and bigger battery. It however has a bigger screen, which probably means more power is needed.

Like I said earlier, SD675 is more powerful (especially in single threaded operations) than the Exynos 9610, the GPU is also far better - these gives you better gaming. But in terms of speed and efficiency, the Exynos is likely to perform better.

It all depends on what you are looking for.

PaulThor:

Oga, everybody is waking up in the midrange department. Samsung A50 is a sweet device and I'm afraid it's better than RN7.
.
Both are cool devices but one is better..
.
In as much we love xiaomi, I wouldn't want us doing the blind arguments, techno and other minions do when they are bested. We are talking of samsung here, world largest producer of smart phones..

Check my post well. I suggested A50 is better than RN7 . That comparison is with the pro version.

Your concern is what made do the comparisons in the first instance.

maclawrence02:
Compare with redmi note 7 pro both of them na mate at least their prices is almost the same. Come back with the results, I dey wait!

RN7P is more powerful especially because of the GPU, while the A50 should be better in terms of efficiency. A gamer should pick the RN7P, while someone interested in all round performance should probably pick the A50. The camera on the RN7P should do better than A50, but then software optimization is really important and could make a difference. Mind you, A50 uses a wide angle sensor, an extra one for ultrawide angle, then the depth sensor and they all have smaller apertures compared to the RN7P with only one secondary depth sensing camera.

In terms of screen, no need for comparison, A50 tops easily. In terms of power, the results should be similar although the CPU on A50 tend to be slightly more power efficient. Software optimization will play a big role here.

My opinion. I'll still pick the A50 over RN7P. Amoled is sweet.

PS: RN7P = Redmi Note 7 Pro. A50 = Samsung A50

godspeed:
This might not be a fair comparison tho,. The A50 is upper midrange and almost double the price of the RN7

Yes, it's not a fair comparison when it comes to price.

godspeed:
And u don't even know if I'm a geek myself.

Thing is what interests a geek might not have meaning to ur average everyday user.

Things like clock speed and whatnot have no meaning to the average user like what he can see and feel


Things like camera quality, battery life, picture quality and ability to handle high quality games does not require u to be a geek to notice.

I play H D games on both and I can tell us the A50 handles games better.

The UI/OS optimization also plays an important role.

Sammy1973:
I am talking about comparison video not reviews, they put both phones side by side and they opening apps at the same time, RN7 was opening faster. Even games like PUBG, it opened faster than A50. They tested the camera too and I preferred the one on RN7. That video made me go for RN7, I was about buying A30 then which is even inferior to A50.

Not everyone buys phone for its game prowess. That a phone opens a game faster than the other doesn't mean the processor is better. Most of these processor have departments where they outshine each other. I've seen comparison videos where RN7 does better in opening apps but worse in keeping them in the memory. It all depends on what you want. For the camera, until I see the video myself. Don't also forget the crispness of Amoled Display.

Personally, I'd easily pick A50 over RN7 anyday.

Sammy1973:
Thats not true, you can't know more than the phone geeks who do the reviews, if you like use both phones for ten years, you will still not know more than them.

Review is just an insight, doesn't translate to real life usage. If that's the case, I'll never use RN7 after Jerryrig destroyed it in his review.

From the specs of the Samsung A50, I won't be surprised if it beats RN7. The processor is faster and also has a much smaller manufacturing process and the battery is also 4000MAh. I don't know much about the One UI, but that may be where the difference lies.

The camera setup on the A50 might also be better than that on RN7, Gcam asides.

Kceefresh19:
Hello!
I just saw a video about the redmi note 7 and the guy said the note 7 does not show notifications on the screen unless you manually swipe or open up your phone
Can anyone confirm this?

3 secs notification. After that you have to swipe to see.

Sunnick:
its Ur WiFi always on? if not u have a bug and it need to be fix.

mine was like that till I was able to fix it some hour ago

It was on for most of today.

genius43:
This is mine, I used my phone outside most of the day, so the screen was on mostly maximum brightness.

Redmi Note 5 though

Not bad. Makes sense. Although if I had used mine up to 15%, I'd probably get 7 Hrs+

genius43:
Poor network is also affecting your battery life

I guess so. I'll find my Mifi and use it so I can study the difference.
