Xiaomi fans strike me as a very hostile set of people undecided,but as na una thread be this I no make noise
I'm looking for info on the best camera phone i can get with a budget of 63k,I finally narrowed down my choices to the Nokia x6 & the RN6 pro due to reviews I've watched over the past 3 weeks (including our very own Henry007's review of the RN6 pro vs camon 11 pro vs huawei y9 2019) concerning phones in that price segment,the x6 is why I joined the Nokia thread and I'm here cuz of the RN6 pro... I've not even spent one week here and someone is already tackling me with "RN7 is better than iPhone x in lowlight photos (wtf grin grin)"... I could have blown one mega lie about possession of the 2 phones just to shut him up,after all,many people do it and don't get caught.. I even know a guy personally that does it regularly,I won't disclose his name due to certain promises grin (I'm a man of my word smiley), and people actually seek his help in choice of phones not knowing that he hasn't seen or touched most of them and he has a lot of data to spare grin... Bottom line is that it's hard to catch those kind of people cuz nobody is seeing anybody and Google is there for everybody but I don't see the benefit of all that
Now that y'all know why I'm here,maybe u can calm down and actually help me smiley
Note: I don't normally explain myself to people but I understand the value of respecting people in their homes grin, hence this post smiley

The Nokia X6 and the Redmi note 6 pro are almost at par with each other. Major difference being Android One on the Nokia vs the MIUI skin on the Note 6. The Nokia X6 has a USB type-C port compared to the older Micro-USB on the Note 6 pro. I can easily recommend the Nokia X6, but there is one thing holding it back, reported charging port problems. Keep this in mind.
With regards to cameras, this has never been a strong point of the Redmi note series, the cameras are good, not fantastic. Also the Canon 11 pro is overpriced for what it is offering, even if it is touting 6GB RAM, a Helio P22 device will always be a Helio P22 device, a low end device.
We can only make recommendations, however, the decision is still yours to make.

Generally, I dare say the camera of the note 7 will surpass the x6.

Bro Buy The Nokia X5 or X6. It's Far Better than Redmi Note 6 Pro And Redmi Note 7. I'll Definitely Pick One Over A Pocophone.Xiaomi Is Just Overhyped here in This Thread and it shows.

The front of the Redmi 7 comes with Gorilla glass 5. But the back is plastic. While the Note 7 has at both front and back

I don't rely on Jumia for specs. Only thing I do on jumia is to buy.

I'm in a XiaomiUI telegram channel with over 14k subscribers. They throw legit information.

Like the K20 Pro will start selling at $375 for the 64gb variant.

For the face unlock feature, you can get it here:

1. Open settings and scroll down to Lockscreen and password.

2. If you want to change your region, just go to settings, additional settings, click on region and you can change it to India

Actually the processor on X5 beats that in Redmi 7. Helio p60 is even better than sd636 in Redmi note 5pro and Redmi note 6 how much more sd630(632) in Redmi 7. In fact Helio p60 is competing with sd660 in performance but sd660 beats it especially in GPU capacity

U left out battery differences... But u read my mind when it comes to the charging port problems, in every Nokia forum it has been the no.1 complaint... And the fact that I'll have to wait for a while before it can be fixed is another issue... And also people complain about the front and back glass not being strong enough and very costly, someone actually had to pay 27k just for the screen... I don't want to be spending unnecessarily... The RN6 pro is touted to be the best camera phone under rs 15k (roughly 100k in naira) in India rn undecided
All recommendations are equally welcome

bro get the redmi note 7 and chill
maybe redmi note 6pro might only have a better front camera
but with gcam am sure it will be leveled
and as for nokia x6 bro just remove your eyes and get note 7 much better device
