These arguments are supposed to be short-lived, but as nigerians, instead of having a healthy discussion, we choose to attack people with different opinions, not even giving constructive criticism. Once we agree on something, there's nothing that's going to change our minds.
You don't see this on Reddit or Quora

Thank you for the trust and patronage. Don't forget, you can use the wrist band as charger and data sync cable.

Some opinions are actually misleading and biased. You have backed up your opinion sir, with no facts, just fiction. Your misconstruing of Mi 10 and Mi Note 10 earlier shows you probably don't know what you're even referring to.

No offense meant.

The Snapdragon you were talking about earlier, do you know that Xiaomi were the first OEM (android) to use a Snapdragon processor and are always among the first to debut their best and latest chips every year?

Please show me where Mi 10 pro falls flat against the S20 ultra.

Countering a misleading opinion without facts is not an attack. I can provide citations to back up my position, I almost never argue without fact checking. Can you?

It was a mistake which i admitted already. Despite that, I expected a healthy discussion, but people thought otherwise. The basis of the whole thing is that Mi 10 is a dope phone but people here would rather buy it than spend extra on the s20 ultra.

In other words, na price wey cause the wahala.
Give the same people both phones to choose one for free and you already know which one they'll go for.

The Xiaomi MIUI 11 code to access the hidden battery menu....

*#*#6485#*#*

Only for those on MIUI 11 based on android 10.


Look out for MF_02 cos it shows the number of charge circles you phone has undergone...

Battery cycles mark the life of the device because as soon as 500 cycles are exceeded (about a year and a half), the battery loses capacity and effectiveness
how?

At this point, I disagree with you.

I would choose the Mi 10 pro over and over again.


Last year, at ShopRite in Effurun, I had the choice of getting an A50 (93k) and an RN7 (67k). After sitting down and going through the specs, I chose the RN7 and till tomorrow I have not regretted it. The only reason I didn't buy the RN7 pro was because it was not available in the Nigerian market.

By assuming people will pick Samsung (for reasons best known to you), you have committed the logical fallacy of Hasty Generalisation. Not everyone is swayed by brand names. More and more people are prioritising a support community that is actually techwise and value for commodity over brand name, overpriced/overhyped and overvalued devices.

My take.

My take.
You chose RN7 cos of the SD processor and presence of Band 28, maybe other minute specs too, right?. I'd do the same too.
But if that A50 had a Snapdragon 660 and more 4G bands, you won't waste time. No be so?

I should now waste my time abi. Stop disturbing us abeg. Buy the s20 ultra and let us rest angry

Exactly.

Now in all honesty, do you think Sammy will make an SD 660 device with a 48mp camera and sell it for 67k?

I like Samsung. When I was younger, my dad swore by Nokia, Motorola and Samsung. I used the old RAZR in 2007 and I used a Samsung sliding phone SGH-**** around 2008/9 before using a Nokia E5 in 2010. I can't really remember the model number. Looking back now, it must have cost him quite a good amount of money.

These are solid brands with good phones.

But as an individual, I want value. I want a community, acceptability. I stumbled upon this thread two years ago and it forced me to have a paradigm shift.

Most (not all) people who use Samsung, have no idea how a smartphone operates. It's just for the name. If I buy one and I have a problem for example, where will I get troubleshooting tips from? Does the company care about it's customers? Last year, Indians actually petitioned Xiaomi to reduce their prices and the company acknowledged them enough to release a press conference note.

If I'm using a 67k phone with GCam, and someone using a 100k+ phone is asking for GCam as well. How does that go?

Right now, it's these things that bring people to this thread. And it'll keep doing so.

I cannot condone the corporate greed of Apple and Samsung. I'm not loyal to any brand either. The day Xiaomi makes overpriced devices, I'll pack my Kaya and leave.

Mi 10 pro and S20 ultra are good phone at almost the same level. If any is better, I leave that decision to the individual to make. Me, I'll get an Mi 10 pro.

Valid reasons. Nice one.
For me, Samsung mid range devices are just there. They made midrange devices and sell for not so midrange prices.

The Mi 10 pro and S20 Ultra are both amazing devices, but we just have to give it to Sammy jare. They finished work there. When i saw videos of both phones, the Sammy was just too sweet. They made a beast and I wonder what the Note 20 Plus or Ultra would be like.
My last sammy device was the S6 that year.
My backup phone is definitely going to be a Xiaomi and will be one of their top 2019 devices.
2020 lineups are just about cameras and refresh rates.

The day Xiaomi makes overpriced devices, I'll pack my Kaya and leave.
They already did. The Mi Mix Alpha
