I bought the phone in April 2019. I took real good care of the battery until I was forced to use the phone as a hotspot for prolonged periods and it killed the battery by December 2022. But that battery gave me more than 3 1/2 years of service.
I replaced the power button a few months ago, about 4 years after buying the phone.
I did go through two shockproof back covers(they all disintegrated with time) and now using the phone without one. Also, went through multiple screen protectors.
I have the 3GB RAM version. I have installed many ROMs, but I keep returning to MIUI mostly because my phone does not have enough RAM. Also, custom ROMs aren't the best when it comes to battery life. The best custom rom I got so far was PixelExperience A13. (A12 sucked a lot of battery btw). Right now I am on Android 9 MIUI 11 runs great.
Saw other people get display issues because of low-quality Tianma displays. I have the same model/make. But I made sure not to use full brightness and always used the dark mode with night/reading mode enabled.
Gcam takes good photos. Video stabilization works.
All in all, a really solid phone

Bought last October 2019. Going 4 years now. Battery is still good. Fast charging, and doesn't drain so fast and can last a day from a time to time use. Buttons are still functioning. Sometimes it freezes and restarts maybe once a week. I think a the problem is having a notification that I got a low storage. Since then I keep it a free space of minimum 5gb to keep the phone working so well. The phone is everyday use since bought. I want to upgrade but still have no savings for new one. My RN7 still rocks.

Whoever having problems with the device, such as performance issues, I recommend you to change the battery and give it a custom ROM, use Pixel Experience ( Lavender ), and your life will be glorious.

In early 2022 phone sometimes its lagging and restart automatically, even when i receive an calling, my device can not detect to see my phone book.
But i found the solution for my RN7 (maybe... coz until now its works) you can try to clean up cache and all the junk or unused file (tmp, exocache, etc) keep your RN7 not reach low storage. And until now my phone seems alright

I used it for 3 years. After one year it started freezing, for one minute or so.
After two years, the turn-off/on button and the volume up/down button just disappeared and now I do not have those bottoms.
The battery is also bad, at fully charged, it barely stays half a day without dying.

Changed the battery, changed power button. installed the olderst versin of miui that came with the phone because miui 12 would make it freeze most of the time.
I use this phone everyday.
