Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 review

01 February 2019
Redmi Note 7 lineup is the first one branded only as “Redmi” and the sub-brand company wants to come in strong. It advertises flagship-worthy build quality, great 48MP main camera on the back and powerful enough SoC no matter which Redmi 7 device you choose - the vanilla Redmi 7, the bigger Note 7 or the Pro. The one we have with us is the Redmi Note 7 - perhaps the most sought after model due to its low price and big screen.

zillion, 03 Feb 2019Why redmi doesn't put headphone jack hole on the bottom jus... moreWhy ? I prefer it on the top it is better when used while the phone is charged and while the phone is in your pocket so you don't need to put the phone upside down

    AnonD-829017, 02 Feb 2019How many times did you replace the battery on your note 2?Two times. First time after 2,5 year. I bought some Nohon crap from GB and battery was dead after 5 months? Secont time I bought original Xiaomi battery in EU and it works fine since then (7 months maybe?)

            Helbram, 03 Feb 2019This should have an SD670 instead. This is the cheapest sd660 it's a great improve over sd625 so no need to sd 670 if you want a more powerful processor you can wait for redmi note 7 pro with sd 675 and sony imx 586

              Anonymous, 03 Feb 2019Sure it's "easy" to turn it off, but why bother to turn it ... moreRemoving ads is free afaik

              If you absolutely do not want to spare 5 minutes to disable ads, feel free to pay double for alternatives. You probably have waste more than 5 minutes reading gsmarena comments tho

                This should have an SD670 instead.

                  Why redmi doesn't put headphone jack hole on the bottom just like redmi note 5? It's more convinient than the top. I think frame like mi 8 lite more ergonomic

                    Anonymous, 02 Feb 2019The targeted customers don't need nfcI wonder, does in China people pay via NFC (for example, Alipay)?
                    Also, don't know why those Chinese low and mid phones does not have NFC. Even Sony Xperia M, low end phone (from 2013) have NFC.

                              Such a design is only possible after mid-year 2018.

                                A modern and pretty design. Such a design can only come after mid-year 2018. Unlike smartphones from LG, Sony or HTC, that are still stuck with very dated pre-2017 design.

                                  Camera is seriously impressive for such a budget phone.

                                    Anonymous, 02 Feb 2019You can turn off most of their ads in 5 minutes. But I ... moreSure it's "easy" to turn it off, but why bother to turn it off when it SHOULD NEVER BEEN THERE in the first place? I understand if the phone is free, sure go ahead with the ads, but this isn't free, one must pay this phone and still get ads.
