isnt this a rebrand reno 5 pro ?

    SOMAYU, 23 Jul 2021While I can't dispute that the snap 865 is significant... moreThey intentionally assign cortex A55 to run popular apps that's why it perform Bad. There are lot of articles about that issue, even here in Gsmarena.

      Outstanding design!😂 good joke guys

        Is there a feature of portrait mode video in the handset ?

          I would buy this phone only if mediatek releases their source code for dimensity 1200. Otherwise I will stick with snapdragons. This phone I'd good but because mediatek doesn't release the source code, the custom ROM development gets messed up.

              BrendonF, 22 Jul 2021Will miss the 3.5mm jack but this phone ticks all my checkb... moreIt's not just that we'll miss it, it's that they remove it from more and more phones every year, and only a few people complain. Eventually it will be extinct from midrangers too and then the same will happen to budget phones. That is why this trend needs to stop,before the headphone jack goes completely extinct.

                Anonymous 2.0, 22 Jul 2021Everyone nowadays: Gimme Headphone Jack or get Doomed! Yes, we don't blindly accept rubbish trends by these manufacturers, who are motivated by greed and remove more and more features every year.

                Take the S21
                After they removed the headphone jack and heart sensor in the s20 and everyone blindly bought it, they realised they could get away with more, and removed the SD slot, QHD display and glass back from the s21. And what happened? Nothing - they got away with it again.

                  Take a look at those over sharpened photo samples before buying. They look like crap when just zoomed in a little bit..

                    Dudenoway, 23 Jul 2021Ok bois. Here is why u should buy poco f3 or realme gt or x... moreYou choose a couple of FPS and 120hz...
                    I prefer by far IMX766 and OIS.

                    Nord 2 is in my opinion more equilibrate.

                      YUKI93, 23 Jul 2021"Downscaling a 50MP photo to 12.5MP may yield slightly... moreI'm agree with you.
                      As a Redmi Note 8 Pro user, I nearly never used the numeric zoom.
                      Most of time, I get a full 64MP picture and crop it. Much better for x2 or x4.

                      As Nord 2 has OIS, result should even be better

                          captain fokou, 23 Jul 2021I hope you are joking. MIUI and EMUI are better in my opini... moreMui is a disaster, it is an absolute train wreck.

                            Dudenoway, 23 Jul 2021Ok bois. Here is why u should buy poco f3 or realme gt or x... moreStop looking at paper specs and look at the whole experience. Mui on Poco is very unreliable and updates are random at best. I would go with the Nord for the OS.

                              "Downscaling a 50MP photo to 12.5MP may yield slightly better results in more complex scenes - like better-defined foliage and more developed grass, bricks, building textures, but nothing that will be worth this manual and lengthy process."

                              Really, GSMArena? The downscaled photo has much better detail and no oversharpening effect at all! I would easily do the manual downscaling all the way.

                                The day shots are dreadful. It's been a while since I last saw so horrendous results, there is no single detail, all the samples are like watercolor paintings.

                                  Anonymous, 23 Jul 2021Nexus were quite different than this phone. I used a nexus ... moreThe Nexus 6 looked nothing like it's predecessors and it's successors looked nothing like it. There was a Nexus design language for a few years between 2011 and 2013, that's where it stopped. Even if we had Nexus phones today, I am sure they would look nothing like any of the phones from that era.

                                    Anonymous, 23 Jul 2021Design looks unironically worse than the Nord 1.It looks like a lot of other cheap brands.

                                    It looks like they slapped a one plus logo on it and called it a day.
