Good review boss, I still marvel how the Chinese are knocking out these sort of phones at such cheap prices, $96 is even the reseller price as you know.. My wife's HTC M8 enter water and I got her the 4a from Geekbuying ( it was £79 then on pre order, though prices have gone up to about £100).. great little performer like you said, I still don't know how the manged to fit in a 3120 mah in that featherweight.. Tip: Camera shoots better in HDR mode.. For anyone on a budget, the redmi series will certainly not disappoint.. The charging duration is one major con in my opinion, the stock adapter is only rated at 5v/1A, I' ve already chucked it in the bin.. A good fastcharger has since taken its place.. .. For all you audiophile's out there be prepared to buy your own headphones, it comes with none.. Cuts had to be made somewhere to sell it at a cheap price I guess.. 1 Like 1 Share |

Elxandre: I greenified all those bloatwares in the phone including Shealth... Before, Shealth would be using my small battery to be counting how many steps I make in a day... Just imagine... So all those system apps that are useless but still run in background all the time, I greenified them... Then I put off the extra jara that Samsung put into the phone like air view, smart stay, smart pause etc.... Who needs them when battery is of paramount importance? The smart stay and air view for instance uses the front camera to detect when you're looking on the screen, so my front camera would be active throughout the day on top of the small battery... Choi... |

Whizpeter:I will try to look into this greenify thing. how many hours could it last before the tweaks? and which ROM are you on? LL or MM? |

Baroba:Boss, what could be wrong? bought a 2A charger in the market, it still doesn't charge fast. I have to switch it off to charge in 2 hours. I think that charger of yours might be a fast charger actually. |

I think that charger of yours might be a fast charger actually.[/quote Sorry I forgot to mention, its still takes the best of 2hrs to charge this thing.. Due to the fact we have been charging overnight, nobody bothered to check.. My 5v / 2A adaptive fast charger was as slow as the stock 5V/1A but my Nexus 7 tablet charger charges it slightly faster but it still takes time..Am beginning to think the Snapdragon 450 does not support fast charger..

[quote author=Baroba post=53087663][/quote] lols, if a chipset used on a phone is quick charged supported, the manufacturer of the phone has to allow the fast charging of a thing but in this instance, fast charging is not supported on all the 3 redmi 4 series despite the chipset supporting it, the fast charging you are getting ins not qualcom quick charge 2.0 or 3.0, the charger is just able to supply upto 10watts of charge (5V,2A) as opposed to d stock charger |

gidieberry: Thanks for the explanation.. |

[quote author=Baroba post=53087663][/quote] I think the quick charge was disabled by Xiaomi. read something like that about a particular Xiaomi device on MIUI forum. |

Re: Xiaomi Redmi 4A Review: Perfection On A Budget. by kolexis: 6:09pm On Jan 24, 2017 |
Holuwaxheun:I bought it from someone who used it for just ten days after shipping so it's still as good as new and I don't think they have any care center in Nigeria |
