Switching To Xiaomi. My Experience by Izendu: 11:51pm On Jul 06, 2020
Around June last year I decided to get a new phone, I had two choices that point for my price range the infinix S4 and Redmi note 8, unfortunately I picked the s4. Using this phone I was really satisfied with it at first till cracks started showing up, I noticed the pubg performance was less the note 7(which my brother was using at the time), the picture quality of the camera started to degrade around 7 months of usage. The software skin xos based on Android 9,was just full of ads, almost everytime am getting notification to install an app, worst of all u can't reject it, it was either install or remind me later which I hatred.with gaming I never really had a problem, just I could only select the lowest graphics on games like pubg mobile and cod mobile. After all this I started researching to buy a new phone, when I saw the infinix S5 I was shocked to know the only difference were the design and camera megapixel, it came with the same helio p22 in the s4, using my brother's phone I found MIUI to be far better than the infinix, so I said am going the redmi way and bought a note 7(wanted note 8 but due to lockdown couldn't find it) and I have never regretted it, the UI is some much better, the camera performance bests the s4(can remember when taking photos on the s4 on portrait/bokeh the phone blurs into the person,but the note 7 does well in the blurring process. The note has 1080p with gorilla glass 5 front and back while the S4 had a 720p with no protection and it also scratched easily and the back was plastic. It even made my mom change from tecno to Xiaomi.
In general Xiaomi makes better phones than transsion

Xiaomi fans e don do oh! Make una leave transsion alone. Every day its one jab at Tecno and Infinix.

You guys easily forget those were the only affordable usable Android phones existing in Nigeria at a certain time. The likes of Samsung, Motorola, Sony, HTC were beyond expensive back then.

It was the RN7 and S4, I would say the redmi launch price was 65k for the 4gb 64gb and S4 6gb 64gb variant was around 60k

Some overhyped 5000mah battery powered phones cannot outlast a Samsung smartphone powered by 2800mah battery.

Guys using L, P and Povouir series have been deceived.

i wonder where you guys buy your devices from. maybe from road side sellers. i have used two infinix devices before switching to Samsung and i can say infinix is good from my own personal experience.

The xiaomi you are canvassing aggressively for also has its own problems. from miui update and battery drain issues to ghost touch issues. visit xiaomi forums or even their thread here on Nairaland and see various complains. i hope by the time one or two problems pops up in yours, you will also come here to update us?

They're speaking from past experience.

Enter xclub and see that Infinix got issues too (not naija xclub as most don't even know what ghost touch or screen bleed is).
Worse is the devs acknowledges bugs but would spend an eternity to fix them (if they seem it unnecessary or see it's not affecting the device in a bad way) or wait till the mods are harassed and threats start flying around.

I cannot use a pole to touch anything China whether Huwaei, Xiaomi, Tecno, Infinix, Oppo and their fellow chinco. Once it is made in China, I rather use a torchlight phone that use one.
