Guys, who else has the flash of the front camera of his phone shining steadily, instead of flashing when the person clicks the shutter button, whenever they select flash ON...

This renders the front flash nearly useless especially at night. If you select front flash auto or on at night, it'll just turn on like torch, instead of actually "flashing" and your photo would still be dark.. Is there any work around for this?

Let me reiterate, what rocks your boat may capsize mine!!!

There several premium features MI max 2 has that redmi 5 plus can't stand. Lol.

For some of us, those features are invaluable.

try using it on 4g and you would understand what I mean;

as for the charging advantage, you got to thank Samsung big-time, as for me, any time I remember charging with its 3 hrs plus prospect, I weak
Lmao. 4g is not a must for me o. My area gets 3G with speeds as high as 1.5mb per sec so what else am I looking for??

See yesterday I updated my redmi 5 plus miui to 9.5 and completed the 1.5gb download in less than 30 minutes even after the first 70% was mistakenly cancelled by me. Just because a phone comes with 4G capability doesn't mean I should go buy 4G sim for it (but that's my personal perspective sha)

Guys please I wantu dieeeeee!!! Ah!!

This redmi 5 plus is the most beautiful phone I've ever used, by a distance sef!! Ahhhh!!

And I've used a lot of phones especially in the samsung line. I haven't used any of the new s8 or 9 series with the new display aspect but my friends have and this phone looks almost exactly as the s8 plus (bar the curved edge and the back).

From today if someone asks me how much I bought it... "oti 100 tousan and it's not in Nigeria bro, I had to order from abroad." See fine phone abeg and now I've updated to miui 9.5, I've removed the navigation buttons totally and am now claiming "it also has this immersive mode where you just swipe to go back and all bruh"

Combine it with my Chrooma keyboard that adapts it's color to the color of the app it's being used on...

Shakara forever

I beg to differ, prior to my making my own review about the phone, every comment tended to portray the device in a zero sum light in which a person who got it, had a perfect mid range phone.

I ain't over complaining, just trying to be objective and instituting same in this thread.


#VALUE-FREE MAN
Sir I have a redmi 5a and I get solid 6 and half hours of screen on time. I have even gotten 7 hours and 40 minutes once, but that was mostly watching videos online and all. The battery is very good for the average Nigerian.
The charging time is also not that bad.. I use a Samsung fast charger that came with my galaxy note 4 (because the charger that came with the phone has just 1000mAh output) and it gets full in about 2 hours.

2hrs charge time for charge for almost 7hrs is screen time isn't okay by you?

I was downloading this update and wanted to take a screen shot to post here when I mistakenly started the download from the beginning. Something that was at 70%

Somebody gimme rope!!

Anyway, those running the update, hope it's cool? And does it do that iPhone x-esque swipe navigation thingy on redmi 5 plus?

Use olive oil instead, you just apply around the edges. You can use cotton wool in place of the brush.
Thanks

After putting your screen protector on your phone, you might observe that some parts around the edges have air bubbles, you use this oil for fixing it.
How exactly do you apply the oil? I want to use groundnut oil to fix my own
