According to you, you need a faster phone than what you had, but did you come here to ask which should you buy between Note 7 or X6?

X6 is a chinco phone too, na your budget go determine.. my friend had maximum 55k for phone he just want 4GB Ram, the rest is nothing to him, just want to move from 2GB ram to 4GB ram Phone and doesn't want to break bank.

I suggested RN5AI, which was brought by noobody, he got to Gsm arena, suggested, similar phone was X6, he saw Jumia ads for 54K 6GB RAM, he declined the offer from noobody, said he wants the X6 regardless of the wait time.

Lesson of the day:
Know what you want and go for it.. cheers

The battery on RN7 is far better.

The only edge X5 and X6 might have is because they are both android one devices so their UI is based on pure android OS.

Whereas, RN7 UI is based on MIUI.

But not to sound sentimental, RN7 battery is darn good.
thanjs man i've made up my mind, i'll go for the redmi 7 instead of the rn7 cos of the type c port, wE dont have original acessories for it yet
i cant let go of my micro b to hdmi cable just yet

and i've read user opinions of type-c ports slacking after 6 months of use

this is very false....
Since I've handled both the X5 and RN7,i play pubg also and a lot of other games.
My friend here uses the X6 and i can tell you that the Gpu in the Helio P60 trumps the one in the SD636
Also the Difference in Gpu performance is not that much btw the Helio P60 and The Sd660 in my Rn7.... though i admit the SD660 Gpu is slightly better

Note that most games and emulators are usually optimized for Snapdragon Adreno GPUs, also the Nokia X6 has an SD636 SoC while the Nokia X5 has the Helio P60 SoC. Don't forget that the Nokia X5 has an HD+ screen, so the GPU will not be stressed as much as that in a phone powering a FHD/FHD+ screen.

That's why I put debatable in bracket, it meant I wasn't sure. Thanks for the rectification

Exactly what the X6 is facing bro.

The charging port.

I've used phones with USB TYPE-C port and I never had issues with them like X6 users have with theirs.

You misquoted him.

You see, he said that [sd636 has a slightly better GPU(debatable) than helio p60]. He emphasized that it is debatable because he wasn't so sure, so if someone else comes out and say the GPU on P60 is better, he is also right. So that doesn't make what he typed false because he said it is debatable .

He also stated that the P60 on X5 is underclocked which is true and on normal usage, it is far better than SD636, which is true.

But you said it is false.

Above all, the onus is that SD660 is better than both P60 and SD636 which is the main argument here.
SD660 GPU is definitely better...

The first is for the night mode setup while the 2nd is the normal camera
Funny result, from the details, the normal mode suppose dey better exposed than the night mode because e use slower shutter speed, I for say maybe d night mode na a form of HDR but the size of the picture clearly deny that, e clr say with updates (if dem go gree do am), the camera experience go surely get better.

Actually, a USB Type-C port is more durable, and supports more goodies than a micro USB port. The type-C issues you mentioned are peculiar to the Nokia X6 (and the X5, to a lesser degree).

You will have to manually keep checking those, I don't get notifications from my Gmail too. Have you tried turning off battery optimization for that app?

With such specs, there's no way you can get a brand new laptop at such price, unless you are willing to sacrifice performance which I won't advise.

That's an issue peculiar especially to the Nokia X6, not an issue with cause by the Type C port used.
