Good afternoon. I just bought the redmi Note 14 today. Please is there anything I need to do to enjoy the phone better, and where can I get it gcam
GCam of today isn't like how it was in those days o. Go and look for Redmi Note 14 photography channel on Telegram if any.

Also as a former Xiaomi user I don't expect questions like "is there anything I need to do to enjoy the phone better"

I don't know why the phone is showing no service, i have tried both airtel and glo SIM.

Though I have been able to log into my gmail with the phone, and open NL, but the apps have been trying to download on playstore for the past 30min just keep saying pending.

I was wondering if it's the no service that affects it.

Buy from Nigeria except for specific Global Versions not in Nigeria.
And be careful not to buy a CN Version passed as Global. The safest bet is to follow who knows road. Noobody dey for you.
Thanks and God bless 🙏
Bcoz, my old Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 4x Chinese Version that I brought from AliExpress some years ago (During Jonathan period) still working PERFECTLY from my little sister.

And wondering why my five months old REDMI Note 13 giving me issue

Às I deh like this, I done over confuse.
I actually fell in love with Redmi Note 12, but couldn't get hold of one, then I stumbled upon Poco m5 and I got one but ended up giving my wife without even using it.
Now, having dug deeper, I have found out that Poco m5 has a betterAntutu score than most latest phones.
I wanted getting another Poco M5 but only yellow colour was available.

House, where can I get a brand new Poco M5 6/128? Black or Green?

House, is Redmi note 13 4G and upgrade to Poco M5?

I need una candid advice

Which most latest phones does the M5 with Helio G99 have better AnTuTu score than?

Well I will pick the RN13 4G If I was to pick between the both.
Better display, better cameras, UD finger print, faster charging.

Realme c75 s a low phone for low users...
Not even for gamers ..
Only 50mega pixel camera...
Poor processor and costly..
I wonder what makes this phone costly...
D only advantage is just the water and dust proof..

Redmi note 9 pro 5g s far beta ...
This is a very delusional post
If realme is really that low, why are they beating redmi in sales?? Are you saying customers don't know what they want and what they're spending their money on??

Try checking Jumia, or maybe Slot
It would also interest you to check out realme, the brand is actually doing well and producing good phones if you ask me

Beating Redmi in which sales? You are even more delusional.

Xiaomi is Number 2 currently in Nigeria.

It's a matter of time, just like the other guy said up there! Even now, findings have shown that unlocking bootloader on their devices (not only DM series) running HyperOs 2.0, android 15, has been made difficult. But how long will the restrictions last? Time will tell.
Actually, unlocking bootloader is not the issue; you will have serious issues with google attestation services. Meaning that you would be unable to use most apps.

As for mtk, forget it. Go for Snapdragon if you want to tweak your phone. But I wouldn't advise you to use your primary phone for this purpose.

I think Xiaomi/redmi problems started when they adopted that g series processor. It has been a complete failure. They should stick to snapdragon.

Anyways, I debloated my redmi, changed the rom, tweaked my settings and it's been fast and able to multitask perfectly. However, I hate the fact that I had to go through all that stress just to have a smooth device.
Please would you Recommend Redmi note 13 or note 14 ?

One without issues
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Serendipity2023: 5:54am On Jun 24, 2025

If you are coming from a Note the bare minimum is to remain with a Redmi Note.

The realme Note is an entry level device forget the Note branding.

If you are forced to choose between both then the Redmi 14c. A better CPU even they are both 12nm processors, a bigger battery and faster charging, slightly better connectivity. The display is at least protected with Corning Gorilla Glas 3.

But my honest advice is save up and get a Redmi Note 13 or 14.
please from your experience, are there really good reviews about Redmi note 14?

I am considering getting 2 for my sisters

My experience and reviews. I don't follow. Are they good devices yes for their price. Could they have done better yes. Stop making 4G variants. 4G processors have been stuck in growth for almost 4 years now.

How many. I only saw one and the complaint didn't come again. So it is Isolated. They also complained of the 13 during it's time.

[quote author=Serendipity2023 post=135866550][/quote]Still isolated and something a software update can fix. If it was wide spread. This thread would have been full with complaints. But do you. I use neither of both phones you are after

what would you buy with a budget of 200-270k ?
Re: The Xiaomi Thread. by Serendipity2023: 6:11am On Jun 25, 2025
I want to buy a phone for my sister.

Camera should be sharp

I am considering Redmi Note 13 or Redmi Note 14--
8/128 for any.



I have seen bad reviews like sim connectivity issues, bad camera, battery draining fast etc on both devices.

Are these isolated cases?

Should I choose Infinix or Samsung A series instead?

I have a budget of 200-270k.


Thanks
