With a price difference of over $150 for the same variant, the OnePlus 6 is a no brainer.

UPDATE!!

I bought and registerEd the SIM today like I promised but I'm yet to receive any 4G signal. I stay at Agbowo, opposite UI (very close to Bodija where it's been reported to have been sighted). If work permits me, I'll stroll to Bodija market before the week runs out for another test

Guess the broadcast site is still relatively small. Then it must be a popular band unlike band 28 that travels farther and penetrates deeper. Challenge and Iwo road are not getting it too.

Well done bro. Thanks for the update

For better color calibrations, head to settings, display and adjust manually to the perfect one.

If you use gcam pics sizes are usually within 1-2mb with better quality & dynamic range.

The Inbuilt music app is not doing justice to the power of the phone speaker.. use google music and adjust ur equalizer and get d rich sound of life including bass.. or you can use viperfx and stick to stuck music app and enjoy an even better sound although u'll be needing root privileges for this.

True for the face unlock, sometimes even when I'm barely looking. It's super fast and accurate 4 me so far.

Gimme equalizer settings for Google music lemme try it out.
I no wan root now..
I just changed display to cool. It's a bit beta tho.

Bro is this 6pro better than note5?

Note 5 has a higher processor, but I will choose Redmi 6 pro over it anyday.. You know why? I don't consider SD 636 as a major upgrade from a guy coming from SD 625. Would rather go for a phone with a much more higher processor starting from SD 660

Awwwww.
Oya lemm drop anoda one

UPDATE...!!!!!

Faceunlock- works at anytime of day day. Low light ..half light. Medium light. Semi bright light. ..just turn up your brightness to d max and voilaa unlocked.. 100% success rate

Snapchat video. With filters no lag. Dey gonna think u using an s7 or s8 or s9.. cause it's smooth ..just like on iPhones.

Phone calls.. having ish with this. Sometimes dat little floating shit doesn't work . It won't pick d call. Until u lock it and pick d call from der minor glitch tho

Camera is superb.. better Dan any tecno phone I've seen. I've seen all except d phantom. Nd c11

Multitasking is amazing it holds apps well.. it won't hold 10+ oh.. but it's amazing Sha..

Brightness.. it's lovely. Very very lovely. .they sacrificed a lot of colour on dis phone.. like colours aren't sharp oh.. but d white.. damnnnnnn.. oh sharp gannn.. u can use this under direct sun light no hitch no need to be covering it from d sun so u can see well..

Sound.. no bass. Just loud. If u have heard music on d camon cx B4 it's like dat but d cx still better a bit..

Earpiece. They did an amazing job with this. Any earpiece u stick into it becomes a beast.. any at all. Sound production becomes wow.. I am just wondering how an original earpiece would sound with it. I bought an old earpiece for 800. U need to head it boom boom like a car stereo..

Battery life.. pressing d phone u can go 7 hours plus. With data on.

Glo 4g.. haven't seen it.

Network settings.. even on 3g preferred it still changes to edge.. and am using glo. Imagine.. 2g glo. U need to put on airplane and back B4 it might turn back.

Gallery hide.. yes it has one.. yes I hid some pictures.. yes I don't know how to locate the pictures again.. yes I have tried YouTube but am using glo.. cry cry cry. I know I'll figure it out tho. I saw how dey were describing it on with a little Gif.. but sense will not kill me I press skip.. so guys I need help on dat.

Space after installing apps.. I still have 32gb left installed some games and transferd everything on my old phone back .. it won't reach so I'll invest in a memory card soon. 64gb preferably for images pictures.. and d rest.nwhile internal is for gaming... Yeah am a gamer.
Dungeon hunters 5.
Gta s.a
Pes 19
Gangstar new Orleans
Gangstar Vegas.
On my mind and more + what I have.

Pic size after snapping.... For those who want to get d cheap 32gb version and still want to use 2 sims.. not advisable
1. Pic range from 8-10mb sometimes more.

Sim - nano not micro.


GAMING REVIEW next.. lemme get all d games ready first.
Still downloading some.
#longlivefreebasics.
For the Gallery hide ..go to ur gallery..go to the Album side..den pull it down and hold for like 2sec...den add fingerprint or Password...buh the best to hide both Video,file , picture or anything is from ur file manager...jus enta File manager and pull it down and hol for lemme say 2 sec...dats the most secure way

Yeah, I know what I said.

Redmi 6 pro has a 'lower processor' as compared to Redmi Note 5... I know

But I would rather go for a 'much more higher' processor than settle for a 'little upgrade'? The margin between these two devices ain't that wide

Other reasons why I will still choose the former over the later is the screen to body ratio difference being better on the Redmi 6 pro, plus I kinda like notch.

It's my personal choice

Chat the seller up, they give you a quote, you place the order; they ship

Note: Some won't answer you if the quantity you are ordering is very low

Their shipping also is pretty fast, but costly. They mostly Use expedited shipping like FedEx, EMS or DHL
