Luckily I've got this phone last week in brand new condition at the RP Tech Qatar. But there's no major OS update version available when tried to update the phone's OS. It's running on android 7 (nought) although as per gsmarena it's upgradable upto android 10. Is there anyone who received official updated os version for the redmi 5 plus global version?

    I had this for 5 years until the battery gave up. I installed so many custom roms on it... Great phone for its time.

      Been using this phone for 6 years, it was good while it lasted and i just swapped to a new phone last week went from android to iphone. The change is pretty insane but i’d say redmi 5 plus has its faulty and flaws (charging takes a while but its battery drains so fast) but it’s a decent phone I’ve been with for 6 long years.

                      this phone can survive a month being completely dead, very good camera and processor recommended for mid-high tasks

                        Still using this phone with outdated software.
                        No lagging problem.

                            Using this phone

                              Leonardo, 17 Mar 2023I've been using this device for 5 years and to be hone... moreClearly this phone isn't made for the time we are living in right now. Believe it or not, it's almost 6 years old. Although all the problems you mentioned are valid, none of them makes sense for a 2018 mid range device now. For 2018 standards, this was amazing. After using with a PE A12 rom, this is smooth as ever. Should I be complaining about the lack of 5G, or dual camera or what not on this device? Absolutely not.

                                Not my daily device. But recently gave it a fresh pixel experience rom and working amazingly. Even shocked at the GCam outputs. Slap it an amoled screen and nobody would've noticed it was a 2018 phone.

                                      used this for 1 year then the touchscreen went haywire, registering ghost taps, became unusable. was good while it lasted and looks good too.
