I have had bad experiences with buying SD Cards from Jumia. Buy from Bo Cheng store on AliExpress if you can be patient.
You are not alone bros.

Odokpa very risky ooooh!

Fake memory card spotted. Even 16GB cannot sell for that cheap. Just my opinion. Do what your heart tells you.
Thanks guys

Banggood hmm, not bad sha, but nothing compared to Aliexpress. Their customer service na almost non existent, nr kw if dem don change sha.
Not so boss.
It's the other way round.
It is best to communicate with banggood agents via live chat. Just Google or search their website for the live chat webpage.
On the aspect of warranty, they have upper hand. While aliexpress is limited to client protection period, with banggood.You can make claim beyond the period that aliexpress usually gives because they sell the goods to you directly as a company and not like most of the third party sellers aliexpress that can decide to ignore you after the protection period elapses.

I updated my RN5 today and I observed that I could not use wifi and hotspot together anymore. Very painful. My friend has refused to update his because of that. I also observed that the screen looks more sharp. The colours look more vibrant.
Same here! I personally think the colours are way too deep tho. You could notice most images now have a little orange-reddish shade and background which is undesirable for me. If they tried to manipulate it to look like Amoled colours, then it was peharps a fairly weak attempt. Oreo colours were better in my opinion... They may not be that vibrant but they had a good balance between colour shades and tint. They should go back to that in their next update.
That said, the new stable pie update has some jiucy features tho..
* Perfect Dark mode
* Improved reading mode.
* Better battery (major improvement here!)
* Improved camera (the stock camera is now almost as good as the legendary gcam)
* New charging animation.
* Added Face lock. (you can use it to unlock apps)
* New GPS status bar icon.
* A few app icon changes like MiVideo etc
As per the Hotspot-wifi issue (inability to use them simultaneously), I read somewhere that it was because the new Google pie codes clashed with Xiaomi's Miui integrations. So it's practically impossible to have that feature on most Miui roms. You can switch to AOSP-based roms tho, works flawlessly.
Eu fans there's a new update. Popped up earlier today. Will be updating tonight. Hopefully the display colour saturation and WiFi-Hotspot issues are solved.
Anyone updated already?

You would have reinstalled the ROM manually with the updater app or just do a factory reset and reinstall ROM manually
