The respect I get for xiaomi much

The first xiaomi I used was a xiaomi note 1 or so, refurbished device, 4gb 64gb, even as Na fake, d camera Na die

But that note 5 Ai, I no just understand

Isn't Ai supposed to be a picture enhancer?

That particular phone has a very horrible camera

EVen note 4x better pass am

The guy I sold the phone to is on this thread and still lamenting

Thorby:

Lol, u just wan spoil this phone for us. Na me buy the phone from you o. But the first time I got the phone, I was a Lil disappointed with the front camera, well maybe cos of the hype I got here. But albeit, the camera is not bad at all, comparing it with other common devices within its range.
I was opportune to compare it with Infinix Note 5 stylus, Damn, that phone camera na real poo. RN5 beat it hands down. The RN5 camera isn't bad at all since it's a mid range device.

Gptech:

U don start again abi, I get both phones here, note 4 is nothing compared to note 5, infact no phone of $200 and below can defeat the note 5 in terns of Camera, all this talk talk don do, instead do a proper camera comparison with both phones or any contender. U don let Pixel blind ur eyes abi?

Gptech:

This your comment, dem nr go see am, small time dem go ask make u compare am with Infinix hot s3 .

Got the Note5 and I absolutely love the phone to bits. It's very immersive and aesthetic when compared to its mates in the same spec or price level.


I appreciate the fact that as much as xiaomi tries to bring the best of specs at very affordable prices, but there are few areas they seriously need to work on. Not to sound like an Oliver twist (because with the pricing, this phone company doesn't owe us any better IMO) but there are three major areas I feel needs work on the note 5.


1. The notification light on the RN5.

My second smartphone was a Sony Xperia V. At that time, it was a worthy gladiator with mad specs. I was the envy of many. I got so familiar with my phone so much so that the notification light was sort of perfectly interactive. I knew if I had twitter, Facebook, WhatsApp, or Quora notifications because I enabled distinctive colours for the different apps on my phone. Once my light goes green, I have WhatsApp messages, blue for twitter, red for Quora, and so on. It didn't blink like it was hungry and weak just as the Note5 does. The lighting was perfect and on time. This technology was perfected by Sony in 2011.. I think xiaomi can do something here, because one of the reasons I went for this phone is because of the notification light and I'm not impressed at all.

Optionally:
i mentioned u in superd d1 thread.
Please reply abi are u not familiar with jumia

Gptech:

The coloured notification is not a mistake, they deliberately removed it starting with the Redmi 4x of last year. If you want it so badly you can get the Redmi note 4x , it's a reason I find it hard to let go of the device, so used to coloured notifications.

I swear if say that time wey I dey view this thread 2 yrs ago and I see all these kind -ve talks, I for nor buy my redmi 3s then. I for just dey suffer for the hands of elephone and what not and missing out on a good brand.

gidieberry:
he neva drop reach

fibonacci2526:



Bia no use that one as excuse o, lolllllll. Wetin u still dey for hia sef?

noobody:


People seem to forget redmi series are midrange devices,

Mayb xioami keeps doing the mistake of making the build feel like flagship devices,

So.people tend to expect flagship qualities

I wonder if dem put the best camera on midrange devices,how dem expect there flagships to sell

This thread weak me today nor be small,

Shocked at what people comment on here,

Xiaomi sha

Gptech:

Exactly! I know how many people around me wen dey buy the phone just because of the camera wen dem see, phone wen beat every Infinix and Tecno out there wen dem dey sell over 100k, because of some ppl comments, dem go allow some poor souls go land those weak devices . Na something like this make someone dey ask yesterday if note 5 fit handle Snapchat without lag, because Tecno Camon Cx dey lag with am . I kuku vex install and for both note 4x and note 5 just to satisfy d person curiosity. Imagine comparing the weak mtk processor of the Camon CX with even the S625, not to talk of the S636 . The way some of us dey drop comments here dey do more harm than good.

Optionally:
If it's not about Gcam it is rooting.
If it not rooting it's the ads and many more.
Too much arguments,I'm having headache sef because of this gcam thing.
U guys have eventually made yourselves to believe that your phones camera are awful without gcam.
Abeg go and check gsmarena review of the RN5 and stop all the complaint and argument its making dis thread dry.
Ifedith hw ur side

IKON360:

do you just come on Nairaland to complain? Is that like your hobby?

noobody:


Na kuku dis same thread,newly xiaomi converts dey come confess say,they have bin blindfolded all dis years by tecno nd infinix after unboxing dia new fones..

Nobody dey kuku dey force dem dey talk am

macbeyland:
I took a selfie picture on my mi max 2 using both stock camera and gcam. The gcam pix was so clear that it had too much shiny detail. Even the hairs on my face were appearing shiny.

Although it came out clearer than stock camera, I actually preferred the pix from the stock camera because it looked more real life. If I look in real life like what the gcam shows, I go dey even fear myself.

use the manual brightness instead of auto

Xiaomi just playing with feelings outchea..


Go back 2-3 years for notification light or live with a terrible one in the present

adamix:

Busybox icon or magisk icon?

adamix:

Is it terrible?

GrandMufti:


What is ethereum

noobody:
I wonder if this is the same way indians complain bout xioami phones too?

Little wonder xiaomi choose to keep establishing it self in india where it is valued the most..
