Why you should not buy Xiaomi phones.

The phone itself; is it really worth it?
Well, the answer lies within you after reading this. Yes they produce fabulous products with wonderful specifications on paper!
Their cameras are not quite what it seems, so many users have complained about the bad quality of images taken with their cameras.
Although their processors are pretty good, they make use of the American chip producer; Qualcomm but they either make use old chips or obsolete processors. Some of their recent phones released this year come packed with snapdragon 625 or 660 or some later chipsets, compared to some brands like the LG V20 which was released in 2016 come with the snapdragon 820.

@ Bolded

Show us Camera samples from Samsung J6 2018 and I will show you samples from Redmi Note 5 AI (both are in the same price range)

Dont just Write for the sake of writing, Research first.

Redmi 4 Pro First to Feature Snapdragon 625
First Brand to Feature Snapdragon 710, Xiaomi Mi 8 SE
Redmi Note 5 First to feature Snapdragon 636
Mi Mix 2s Had Snapdragon 845, Before Most Top brands have it.

Updated : Xiaomi Mi Play, Feature Mediatek P35 first.. Is that one Outdated too?

Why are you doing this to yourself. Get Redmi note 5 3/32GB variant of 50k and you will be asking me to be your in-law. That Redmi 4a of 35k is by far better than Samsung of same price

You handled a Redmi 4A, one of the cheapest, that is if it's still being produced sef because it already has two successors in the Redmi 5A and Redmi 6A.
For your info, the 4A and all the succeeding models are the cheapest models in all of Xiaomi line.
It is now this model you used to describe the whole brand? sad
This your situation is like handling the cheapest of Samsung J series line and using it define the whole of Samsung phone brand lipsrsealed

You just Void all your points by taking a screenshot of Mi A2 Lite..
See ratings, benchmarks, Take a look at that pentagon ratings they are rated by users not even in Nigeria
You get 3 GB RAM on a 144 USD phone, using Snapdragon 625.


Make a wise choice today, go for Samsung, IPhone (if you can afford it), One plus, Lg, Huawei , ZTE... grin grin

Name a phone that comes with a better processor for that price? A Samsung for the same amount isn't as good. Compare S8 and MI 8

You've been on about the samsung J2, but have you tried comparing it to the redmi 4a you're downgrading.
That phone is averagely priced at 35k and I for one won't recommended it because it is an old model. You should get a Redmi 5A or 6A instead if you can't go beyond the 35k budget.
https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8904&idPhone2=8420
Follow that link and check the comparison. Make sure you put in mind that Redmi 4A is a 2016 model while j2 pro is 2018.

To start with, the phone isn't expensive. Redmi 4A (2+16GB) with Snapdragon 425 is sold for 33,000 while the closest phone to it in terms of specs (Infinix Hot 6 Pro - Same Processor and Ram + Rom variant) is sold for 48,000 on jumia.
Second point, you made a ridiculous claim as regarding the whole Xiaomi brand when you've only handed one of the lowest entries Xiaomi has ever released. Were you expecting a 250,000 Samsung Note 8 camera in a 33,000 Redmi 4A in the first instance?
