I bought this phone a month ago and so far i am very satisfied .
I paid 250 euros for it when i came out , then the price went 180 euros .It's such a bargain .

-Performance = with the Snapdragon 625 it handles pretty much anything you throw at it . I've never had any problems with it . The only thing is that sometimes when i have too many apps opened scrolling has a slow framerate on youtube .But can benfixed by clearing backround apps .
Games runs fine , not max graphic settings often medium to low at a stable framerate at around ~30. I play Real Racing 3 , space frontier 2 , clash of clans. Some games might crash when you open it but its really rare .

-Storage , i have 64gb and 4gb ram variant and so far i haven't filled it up yet. also with capability to expand with an sd card.

-Display = I'm impressed . 1080 with a big 5.99 inch screen. , its pretty sharp..pixels are really un noticable . the brightness on daylight is not the best but enough to let you see and during the night it gets pretty dark . Read mode also come and handy to lessen the eye strain during night use.
- Battery =it packs a huge 4000 mAh battery and so far it's the best feature of the phone.
I am a heavy user , i watch lots of youtube videos and play games all the time .
in a heavy use i get around 6-7 hrs of screen on time or even 8hrs if you really use it to the max often going to bed with 5-10 % remaing battery
on normal day if not a heavy use i get around 9 hours if i only use it for watching videos and surfing web.
it charges from 0 to 100% in about 2 hrs.

camera is decent its all i can say . it does its job but its not flagship like considering its a budget phone .
the speaker is loud enough to hear when outdoors.

the UI is not my type so i installed nova launcher and it looks like stock android and im happy with it

the build is super slippery so you must use the included silicon case . it helps reduce the slipperiness of the phone.. also buy a.screen protecter to protect it from scratches .

TLDR: For under 200 euros it's one of the best for it's price , highly recomend it. i give it a 8.5/10 score .

      For those who have been using this device for a few months now, how would you rate your experience with the device?
      (- Hows the overall condition holding up against daily use?
      - any issues that appeared over time?
      - how good is the screen and camera glass, easily scratched or not?)

      Also does QC 2/3 make a difference in charging times?

      Thanks

        Which is better?redmi 5 plus or honor 9 lite?plz answer

          This would be my next smartphone. i recently bought a Huawei Elate with similar features from Best Buy for $50.00 with taxes and everything O.T.D. and I'm very happy with it. It came with all the bells and whistles and it's actually more phone than I needed. But then again, life is short so why not get another very affordable smartphone right!?

                              Hello :)

                              I heard that Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 version (PRO) 6/64 is only avaliable in India.
                              Is that true or am i wrong.

                                I am thinking of buying this phone. How is the phone handling games and multitasking? Also how's the camera (because I like to take pictures with my phone)?

                                  ash12, 30 May 2018I like this phone (64Gb) but I can't decide between this an... moreOne thing I can tell you, is that my advice is to avoid the Sony Xperia XA1-Ultra. I loved mine at first, but after about 2 or 3 months it began taking longer and longer to charge, and having less and less battery life. By 6 months it would no longer charge at all. The end of the charger will not keep contact with the internal battery, and Sony is not selling replacement batteries. Looking back at newer and updated reviews, I am seeing many others reporting the same problem. Hope that helps.
