Anonymous, 14 May 2019That's not a MIUI problem as MI 9 performs better than many... moreConsequence of MIUI. Not "problem". There are underclocked SD 660 that are faster than RN7 because unlike MIUI, their OS isn't taking half of their chipset performance & capacity while also displaying ads.
Pure android based OS like Android One & Stock Android are much lighter which means less battery consumption and less load on chipset, thus, more performance & battery to spare for tasks the user places on them.

Anonymous, 15 May 2019I have just copied this comment from nokia 6.1 plus
"I bou... moreNever had a single problem with total of 13 Nokia, Samsung and Oppo phones in my household (still got 5.1 Plus). Some of them became children playthings and last up to 5 years without issues before I decided they should be upgraded.
I had problem with all 3 of my Xiaomi phones within months to 2 years (one used to overheat at room temperature then died within months, other two suffered serious battery degradation after 6-18 months). Their customer support admitted I was given defective phones but refused to replace any of them even though they were on warranty. I agree 300% with OP about Xiaomi's poor quality & customer service. If RN7 develops issue, it will be my last purchase from Xiaomi ever. I see its battery is already disappointing but I'm mainly interested in its cameras.
I don't know why it is but I've noticed Xiaomi fans are very desperate to portray other brands to be just as bad as Xiaomi.
Even you searched down a single bad review of defective phone that no one even mentioned here just to counter OP's statement in favour of Xiaomi.
Remember that Nokia phones are not as cheap as Xiaomi. If it had issues like you or the reviewer you mentioned claim it does, it would never be among top brands in so many parts of the world (or beat Samsung as mentioned by OP). It's common sense.

"I bought NOKIA 6.1 PLUS Janu 1st week 2019.After 3 month I was unable to power on the phone.One of my friend also got like this.Please dont wast your money and time for NOKIA phone.Thanks."
You can check nokia phones comment section and you'll find a lot of complaints.
Go and check also samsung m20 and samsung a50 you will see them talking about hearing problems battery drains fast bad gps and poor network connection.
And I have watched a reviewer called techalter talking about nokia phones that are always released with bugs

I'm thinking it's either a snapdragon issue or Xiaomi doesn't optimize their mid-rangers in terms or firmware. But nothing wrong with MIUI itself.

Anonymous, 14 May 2019A50 is way out of price range to compare. I guess you were ... moreAbout x5, yes, I'm sure. As I hinted earlier, OS & Kernel set up are big factors in determining performance & battery. OS takes a lot from device's performance so the less heavier it is, the better (Android One/Stock) and Kernel affects how the device will manage the load placed on it (some favour multitasking, others may favour heavy foreground activity like gaming).
About its chipset, you'll be surprised how many devices are underclocked, so don't panic every time you hear this word. Do panic when you see MIUI written somewhere though. 5.1 Plus gameplay is great.

RN7 was most mocked for its false promise/advertisment about RN7 quality where they smashed a watermelon with it but got damaged easily in drop tests. (See Max pro M1 & M2 build quality tests to compare).

Anonymous, 14 May 2019I have 2 friend which is have note7 and a50, both of them a... moreA50 is way out of price range to compare. I guess you were making a point. How did they compare FPS?
RN7 has minor hiccups while playing PUBG on high graphics (such as during driving) but they're likely to be overlooked by normal users.
As for the issues I mentioned, they are all from the reviews on this very website. It's called a defective product.
so it's not necessary for *all* of their phones to have it but beware that it's possible that yours may - and in Xiaomi phones, that "may" is quite frequent. Your friends will learn about its build quality with time
Aside from slower performance and ads due to MIUI, RN7 battery is indeed disappointing. That was not a defect but a result of having MIUI. Generally, a 3000 mAh phone to lasts around 4 hours in PUBG. RN7 should last at least 5.5-6 hours.
Max Pro M2 lasts 7-8 hours & Realme 3 lasts 6-7 hours (they don't have those hiccups either). OS & Kernel play a very important role in a device's performance.
About Kirin 710, your guess is half right. If I remember it right, they threw in a buffer to help it along but do remember it can't overcome the hardware shortcomings - only push it harder. The thing you should understand about chipsets is that games are often optimised for specific chipsets for better performance. For example, Helio P23 runs PUBG good enough on high graphics but it fails to run some less heavy games like Asphalt 9 smoothly (at the time I looked into it) and couldn't handle PUBG that well either at first.
Kirin 710 is not only a average chipset that is just being pushed harder to perform well but
is also just a Huawei - an uncommon chipset. If you also take into account that you want or *can have* a phone that can handle heavy games in coming 2-4 years, you'll definitely not find it to be that reliable - chipset wise.

Anonymous, 14 May 2019PK, now you proved you don't know what you're talking about... moreI'm pretty sure I know what I'm talking about since I gave 4+2 years of my life studying and 3.5 years working in this field.
If you're done with personal attacks, try reading my previous reply again. "A lot" does not mean "all" - if it meant that, you would have never heard of Xiaomi. I was referring to the ratio of defective phones of Xiaomi vs other brands.
It's a fact that that a lot of Xiaomi reviews have at least one or more battery, heating or screen issue reported per page or two. There are 4000 mah battery Xiaomi phones that used to last up to 2 days when they came out but not even a full day after a year of use.
You keep calling Nokia mediocre but don't have a single constructive argument against them. It's up to you where you want to invest your money. I'm just here to help those that have questions. And I understand brand loyalty but don't try to delude others - because spending $200 on a phone is a big deal for far more people than you might think.

Anonymous, 13 May 2019Specs wise, Redmi Note 7 is better if you ignore quality. A... moreI have 2 friend which is have note7 and a50, both of them are pubg player and they are often playing together.
They are already test it at smooth + extreme setting, note7 still have slightly better fps compared to a50, but for batt life a50 slightly better than note7. And also both of them doesnt have any issues like what you said (overheating, screen bleeding, poor build quality, disappointing battery).
So you still insist that x5 have better performance than note7? and dont forget that x5 using downclocked p60 for the global version.
And about kirin 710, how you can say it is not reliable at all? because it is use weaker gpu compared to helio p70/p60/exynos 9610?
Afaik if you talk about pure cpu performance, sd 660/710, helio p60/p70, exynos 9610 and kirin 710, all of them have almost comparable performance.
