Jeez, Una get strength for this thread oh. KngGezy I admire ur resilence when pursuing ur arguments, u deserve a medal for effort, but u have one fundamental flaw which is equality and balance when it comes to an argument.

Though u have eloquently held ur forth but u've lost the battle most times cause ur arguments are skewed towards a particular direction which is why the issue of biase has come into play.

If you can only relax, speak the ills but also sing the praises, I believe u might have an audience but with ur Modus operandi....... Hmmmmmm I just wonder...

But all in all thanks for the entertainment, it's being a pleasant read.

Good evening ladies and gentlemen, I just want to make common sense grin grin grin grin

I'm not a fan of pop-up camera and I like the IR and headphones jack.

Mi 9T comes with a headphone jack and the pop-up camera is very durable but what do I know. Personally I can't compromise better Chipset and cameras because of an IR BLASTER

Redmi 8 uses snapdragon 439, compared to Redmi 7 which uses 632 an even an older Redmi 5 which uses 450. Is this a problem guys or are the differences negligible?

Sometimes performance of an SD processor is not by naming scheme.

In the grand scheme of things according to performance of the above listed processors is as follows SD 632>439>450.

But if you are not a heavy gamer or user, I suggest you go for the Redmi 8

I used the rn7 for about 6months before it fell sick. Now I have ordered for the mi 9t. I hope it doesn't fall my hand.
I hope it is not a bad idea

Please if you know any good Xiaomi repairer, please let me know. I want to dash someone d rn7.
You don't need Xiaomi repairer but a good phone technician to diagnose and fix for you.

Not a problem... 439 is a senior to the 450 also.. The difference between 632 and 439 is minimal but overall Redmi 8 is better

Good evening house.. I'm thinking of ordering the RN8 online (from 1688) I have a friend that buy things there....
My concern is that, is it safe to order from there and do I have to be concern about custom ish
If the guy's been buying stuffs from there, Yiu shouldn't have problems since he'll be using his trusted agent/shipper. Just ensure you're buying Global version.

Bro the differences between 632 Vs 439 are not minimal from the grand scheme of things from both the heavy usage and normal usage.

The network card download speed or the 439 can't surpass 150Mbps downloads and 75Mbps uplink but the SD 632 doubles that and the SD 636 Doubles the downlink of the 632 making 600Mbps.(The network card on the RN5 is better than the R7, tested this side by side).

In the grand scheme of things 200MHz difference in GPU speed between the SD 632 and SD 439 is a lot.

Just my one cent.

Discuss with the seller on way forward or if the price is still same, just place the order and message the seller not to ship but send you an inactive tracking details.

So I stayed up till this night to catch up on this thread only to read over 20 pages of brain cancer..

And I was thinking something juicy may have come up.. Sometimes I really do not blame people who do not read up before asking questions, I mean reading all of this was mentally draining..

Who's this Kngicefish sef?
I don't see why y'all kept replying his bants, Like Damn! This is a non/never been/may never be a Xiaomi user! Why were we trying so hard to win him over? If anybody decides against getting a Xiaomi phone cos of this oponu's post, then that's the person's loss, the person never kuku ready, I didn't know about this thread nor did I know anything about Xiaomi when I got my first Xiaomi phone, I just saw the phone on Jumia, It had what I wanted at that time 3gb ram and I bought it, then my hostelmates and friends usually made fun of me and my phone choice. But after about a month of usage they all became followers, I even had guys coming from other blocks in my hostel to check my machine(as they'd call it) out!

Make we dey always remember say if you like talk from now till tomorrow, phone wey dey person mind to buy naim he go buy. Person wey call Camon 11 pro machine no go gree say Redmi Note 7 na boss, Nor be everybody eye go open. Ignorance is still bliss!


Why is there no way to even block an Ofurukpe from this thread sef?

It's probably a third party font so It's bound to happen and it'll continue..

Delete the font.. Then go to your theme app, search 'aafont' or 'mobyfont'. Click and apply anyone you like there..

It won't happen again or better still change region to india then open your theme app, click on 'fonts' as it is shown below..
You can always change back to your previous region whenever you want, it won't affect your theme nor your font. It's just that the India region has access to more fonts..

Walk into any Slot, Pointek or Raya store and get the Redmi 8.

Differences yes. Better camera setup on the Redmi 8

I'm sorry I want to derail a bit, Quick question guys; I made a transfer into a wrong account since September, so bank just ordered me to go get a court order.. abeg how or where do I get a court order? Is it an affidavit? Thanks in anticipation.

Sorry for all your troubles.
Banks can't on their own reverse or withdraw money paid into other people's account erroneously without a 'legal permission, in this case a valid court order' as this will open the door for fraudulent activities.
So you need a court order to get your money back...
It's a simple court order from the Magistrate court. You will get the order within 2 to 4 weeks [Nigerian factor added]
Pm for further information

hmmm. I would have said yeh if we were in another country but Download link and up link of ordinary 25 Mb will never work in Nigeria...but serious you are right tho.. Tho SD439 clocks at 2GHz with 12nm while SD 632, clocks at 1.8GHz with 14nm..though it may seem like nothing but the speed processor of 12nm compare to 14nm matters slot.. Check out the antutu test

Good morning, my people.

As regards the Xiaomi Compilation Post issue, I've edited the first line to be XIAOMI COMPILATION POST with a unique word X R C P (without spaces). If you need it just search for the unique word (without spaces) using the search bar of Nairaland. If you want to refer, just remind the user to search without the spaces. This is to avoid several results when queried or searched for.

The link is still valid should you have the link https://www.nairaland.com/post/61425404.

If this still doesn't make it better, then, a new thread will be opened but will be locked to avoid posting of comments.

Edited:
A thread has been created as suggested by some members here and we've got choices now: follow the new thread (don't post on the thread), bookmark the old post or search using the highlighted keyword.

Come Bro
What bothered you most in that statement was because she made mention of decamping to Samsung.
It was not because she made the mistake in comment. Because even a novice can see that she obviously meant tear drop screen. Which she later referred to. Allow people to express their opinions.

You only talk about the 4 cores and ignored the other 4 cores.

Now the 632 has 1.8Ghz on 4 big cores and 1.8Ghz on the 4 smaller cores while the 439 has 1.95GHz(I like been exact and not approximate like you did up there) on it's big cores and 1.45Ghz on it's small cores meaning when the big-little(Don't know if you know of this) process kicks in the 439 will run far slower than the 632.

As for Process the 14nm Vs 12nm just has to do with efficiency like power management not power. E.g SD 660 on 14nm is more powerful than the 11nm SD 665 but the 665 is more power efficient.

But do you know that when the big cores of the 632 is running since the clock speed then is lower than the 439 it conserves battery better despite it been 14nm and the other 12nm

Same thing happened between the SD 730 Vs 855 that is why the 730 consumes lesser battery despite it is 8nm and 855 7nm.

All these things are more technical than just paperwork.
