                          Redmi 5 3GB/32GB, here are MY pros and cons after 2 weeks.
                          Pros
                          - Very good battery life, discharge from 7 a.m. to 5 p.m. 5hrs on screen time with 20% left. My usages are 1h30 of chrome with 3,4 tabs open, 30 mins of Gmail, 20 mins of gaming (f1 2016, hitman go), 20 mins of Youtube (720p), 20 mins of 9Gag, 30 mins for Facebook, 1h of Messenger and I also use it to make phone call and some other stuffs...
                          - MIUI experiences, simple, intuitive with very little bloatware and the good thing is that you can disable them.
                          - Good performance, very responsive, lag free with basic apps like FB, 9Gag, Messenger, Word, Outlook/Gmail, Chrome.
                          - Good temperature under heavy load, all you gonna feel is a little warm in the back of the phone, at the camera position.
                          - Undemanding games work smoothly.
                          - Decent camera for this price range, I strongly recommend you to enable HDR mode, it will took you 2 to 3 secs to take the picture but the end result is pretty good, totally worth it.
                          - 5.7 inches size is quite manageable as I owned a 5 inches phone before.
                          - Loudspeaker with very little distortion when at max volume.
                          Cons:
                          - Long charging time, 2h20 from zero to full charge.
                          - Overnight power consumption is a little bit high, 4% of battery.
                          - Sweaty fingertip will make the fingerprint sensor struggle.
                          - Outdoor, under direct sunlight visibility is very limited due to the phone not very high max brightness.
                          - No dedicated microSD slot.
                          - Protrude camera lens.
                          - Currently, MIUI on my phone is conflicting with FB ans Messenger, make it constantly stop working, I have to use the lite version instead.
                          - Real time update of where you are pointing using GPS + Mobile data is very slow and inconsistance, pretty annoying sometimes.
                          - Navigation keys sometimes don't show up.

                            It is very good smartphone at this price. But it has two drawback also which irritates me and that does not shown in any website even not in gsmarena and ndtvgadget.
                            1. It has only one notification light colour.
                            2. It can not connect to any type of other.
                            I searched nearly all the leading website before buying this but no one shows me these drawback. gsmarena very disappointed me about that. If you are seeking to buy mi mobile at this range then I prefer you to buy Redmi note 5 (3/32) which has dual LED flash, 4000mah battery and free from above drawbacks.
