Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 AI Dual Camera review

14 June 2018
Looking at the title of the review, we can't help but think a quick explanation is in order. Namely, one clearing up which product we are reviewing. We've seen horrible naming conventions in the smartphone realm time and time again, but as far as sheer complexity and confusion of choice goes, Xiaomi arguably takes the cake with the current Redmi generation.

    nick, 19 Jun 2018One more con - poor display calibration. PS. "Nonetheless"! i know right?? all the reviews say good display, but from what i can tell it's very subpar. i have an honor 7x for comparison, and the difference is night and day.

          When launch in india

            radhiv1993, 10 Jul 2018RN 5 AI, better material build and QC 3. How long you gonna... moreThanks.

            But Xiaomi seems not to included the Quick Charger adapter in the box, so we have to buy the charger that can utilize it's QC 3.0 capability separately.

            What kind of charger should we buy for that QC 3.0?
            Recommendation please

                Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 AI 3/32GB vs Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 3/32GB

                Both are about the same price in my countrt, both are very good budget phone, with almost similar specifications.

                Which one to choose?

                Need any comment please.

                  Anonymous, 27 Jun 2018This or Mi a1?I bought my second mi a1 (the first one is black, the second red), i prefer mi a1 than rn5 because mi a1 is more stable (battery etc) as a bonus you can instal 8.1 oreo now

                          Why Not using new number ?
                          and also Larger Memory and storage and also it is better if it use USB C

                            nick, 19 Jun 2018They're not, they're two times faster than A53 at this clocks. Uhh what? those 1.6 ghz ones are the same a53, do tell me how you benched them individually.

                                      tinchow, 18 Jun 2018is there any chance to find the global version in Beijing?The one sold in china are actually the global version with chinese rom. You can alwayd install the global rom

                                        Its not like they are totally wrong, the lower clocked kryos are only modified a53.
