The sim ish is not an issue but a service. It's been sorted out in a post above... And aside that, there's no ish with Xiaomi... At least none that I can't figure it out.
So when you decide to buy, pls check my signature.

Note 5, Redmi 5, Redmi 5 plus, Redmi s2 all have thesame design. What you should be looking out is the difference in screen to body ratio, if device is plastic or metallic at the back. If you are after notched design, the Redmi 6 pro is there. Question is what do you want?

Modified: sorry, the answer to your question is the Mi 8 SE.

It's a 18:9 display and I was referring to redmi note 5 and not redmi 5 plus.

18.9 is the display aspect ratio while what i wrote is the diagonal in inches. I didnt write the inches cos i expect most people of this thread to know. Redmi Note 5 is same phone as Redmi 5 Plus. It is the succeeding model of Note 4 but dumping the the note part of the phone.

Cant use this to judge cos a handful of people that buy the miui versions go back to stock custom roms...

You said it all "a handful"

That handful, compared to the general population is insignificant grin

Across all the brands, customized Android is still bought more often than stock Android.

The only problem is that OEMs tend to add their own or third party bloatware to the excellent customizations. That is what people in general (including me) don't like.

Correct! But is it factory fitted

Also, if I'm ordering for fast shipping through DHL, do I need to ask the seller to use another description on the box to avoid crazy shipping charges?

DHL is usually equal to Customs wahala and payment of duty wey fit give migraine lipsrsealed

Not again! Your info is for Indians, Redmi note 5 here is what is called Redmi note 5 AI, it's different from Redmi note 5 ( India)/ Redmi 5 plus which you posted. Check very well, Redmi note 5 we refer to here has dual rear cameras and Snapdragon 636 under the hood.

This issue has been overfloged here.

Most people make the mistake when they hear screen size and mistake it for the size of the glass on the screen.

The size of the glass area is usually given in dimension of Length, Breadth and width but when you hear screen size, it is actually the area of the screen that captures lights/images.

screen size is = Total glass area - Bezel area

In view of this lay man explanation, you can have a phone with screen size of 5.5 inch and physically bigger than a phone with screen size of 5.99.

If you are concerned about the physical size of the phone you want to buy, request for the dimension information and not screen size.

I am sure i didnt mistake any thing.

Have used Oxygen Os, stock Android,MIUI,EMUI and flymeOS and personally I preferred the OxygenOS(closest thing to stock Android and added customisations)followed by stock Android as the experience is smooth and bugs generally are very limited.

That being said I always keep a skinned Android phone as my secondary phone so that I can appreciate both sides of the coin but it has to be stock or something close to it as my daily driver.

Hmm, so what's happening to that our most recent flymeOS? You know the one that OCD been dey delay you to use...

Hi Guys,
My Redmi 5 Plus arrived 11 days after I placed the order.
