Yes. The turn down for me on the Redmi 7 is the Screen Resolution (its not FHD). Let's see if xiaomi will launch any plus series for Redmi 7

I held my cousin's new R7 beside my RN5 and must say the res wasn't so bad when compared (opinion mine).

Remember it's for budget conscious buyers.

On the bright side it makes the battery give more juice

Go to settings, installed apps, click the 3 dots on top ryt, you'll see default apps, click and set to ur choice
Even though is shows mx player as default app, when I click on a video it opens first with mi player

I personally think VLC is the ultimate champion of PC/desktop video players. That's actually where they started. Their PC popularity is way ahead of their Android's. On android, MX player joined game way before VLC. Their app is very optimized with lots of features. Could play virtually all video formats and has Multiple Decoding modes, plus their subtitle support is awesome compared to that of vlc! Their playback system is the best you'll ever find in Android. I don't even want to go into UI design/interface and networking.
MX doesn't have any competition in the world of android video playing. A quick search on Google will tell you that. Vlc isn't a bad app but I uninstalled it after few weeks of usage, its a little heavy and hugs the RAM a lot, plus the design looks a little outdated and maybe ugly. I hate that orange theme.. Lol
I keep the two, mx for network videos as you rightly said, (I use acestreams and live nettv a lot), VLC when i need to cast to another screen (which I do a lot also) and for fullscreen videos, (MX players wont use the notch area). I think both are pretty close and having the 2 is like best of both worlds grin grin

Have you upgraded your sims? Is 4g live in your region? Is your network mode set to prefer lte?

Unlocked my RN7 Chinese Variant's bootloader, Flashed TWRP and Magisk(all tonight), Now I'm downloading the Xiaomi EU Rom because I don't trust the other available custom ROMs especially since they're largely unofficial and usually buggy from experience.

I have just started my enjoyment of this beast and it feels good to be back in the rooting games, already itching for some Magisk modules.
I'm waiting for the 2weeks to expire so I can unlock bootloader, what Edge does xaomi.eu rom have over Miui10, I'm torn between xaomi.eu or syberia rom

Just like MX player on android video players, PowerAmp is the undisputed king of android music players... Closely followed by Neutron music app... And then BlackPlayer. For the love of god, no one should ever mention that Boomplay again.
Just downloaded that Poweramp shocked the sound is top notch ....

If you don't have 4G Sims get, 4G enabled sims. Then set your network settings with *#*#4636#*#*

Set it to something like this

Try as much as you can to avoid tapping your power button, this helps to extend its life span. To do this, enable 'double tap' to wake, then go to settings - Additional settings - buttons and gesture shortcut, then change 'turn off screen' to ' long press the home button'. Also, enable quick ball, select shortcut, and enable one of the short cuts as ' long press the power button'. That way, you only need to touch your power button only if phone somehow turns off, or you want to enter either recovery or fastboot mode.
