The rest are just there? I take it you haven't seen their flagship series? Afaik the camera on the note 5 is good enough for it's price.OP if camera is the priority here, will suggest the MI A2.

I understand the feeling of getting a refund on an overpayment which you ordinarily wouldn't have known if I didn't tell you, in an online deal for that matter. Yes! That's what I represent, I can adjust my price for more profits if I want but not obtaining off the owner's consent.
Once again, Thanks for the continual patronage sir kiss

I have been seeing a lot of hate for notch phones and I want to share my thoughts. Phones were basically in the 16:9 aspects ratio with bigger bezels. What are the functions of these bezels? To house decent speakers, camera(s), various sensors(e.g fingerprint reader, etc.) This was good until consumers started yearning for bigger screen. With the advent of bigger screen, came difficulty in using one hand to touch all parts of the phone. To solve this, the 18:9 aspect ratio came invoke. There was still a push for more screen or less bezels because it didn't look beautiful on the 18;9 aspect ratio screen. To satisfy the bezel less fans, OEMs started pushing the bezel further to have higher screen to body ratio as possible. But there are certain sensors that must still be housed in the front of the phone. That's why the Notch .
Get a higher screen to body ratio and retain a place for the sensors.
Now, what the notchphobic are saying is that they want their bezel back or OEMs move all sensors to the back, side or on the screen to achieve a full bezel less device (at the moment, only the fingerprint scanner can be moved to all locations mentioned, the selfie lovers(front camera) and face unlocking users (infra red scanner) won't agree you do away with these sensors).
Notch has come to stay(except Samsung not buying into at the moment). We should stop this aparthy toward notch phones. In phones like Poco F1, Huawei P20, etc., you can disable the notch.
Though, aesthetically, the notch is not pretty. The craze will be staying with us for a long time. To all of us who are not willing to embrace it, keep enjoying your current device till 2050. Xiaomi has embraced it.
Android P will address the issue of the screen bite out a.k.a notch while watching videos, running games, etc. And there is a rumour about double notch in view.

I even got double notch (top n bottom) on my essential device once it got on os 9, anyways videos were still the same, even after the os 9 patch...

Disabling notch will make the phone ugly, making the top bezels super fat, I think essential still has the best notch design IMO

Interesting for your double notch.
Further patches may resolve this, hopefully.
Bigger notch at the top appearing when it is disabled is like current phones in use that have only bezel at the top of the screen.
My take is we shouldn't make it look like it is a bad thing. I remember when unremovable battery came. A lot of people hated it because the remedy for hanging phone problems was just to remove the battery and insert back or your phone falling into water and removing battery to dry it up.
Today, where are we with that now?

I am confused, how can you say hail the note 4 for having a good camera, you turn around to insinuate the note 5 camera is not good?

It is a fact and not an opinion that the note 5 currently has the best camera in the redmi series. How your own come different?

Even ordinary redmi 5 plus camera can be said to be on par with the note 4, you come dey mention note 5

Or it been easier to steal wink wink someone's good battery and replace yours. They did that to me in the corper's fellowship house I stayed during my service year. After that, see marking on my battery.

I also don't think it's bad. Moreover, for phones that the notch can be turned off, when it's done, it feels like a notchless phone.
