Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Top Version
new model with better built-in hardware and of course better performance.
Snapdragon 650 (2x ARM® Cortex™ A72, 4x ARM Cortex A53)
16 MP camera
and from what I see all other is the same
more info
What do you think ?
Just in time! I was thinking of getting the previous one, but the increase in price is very small....
I found it in xiaomidevice.com. I don't know if you're interested.
When will be the Xiaomi Redmi Note3 Premium version on sale?
I dont know but the price should be around $200 for Redmi Note 3 Top Version.
and new Snapdragon should be also better
Hi guys,
I have spent quite a lot of time making a video comparison review between the Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 and the Letv Le 1s and I wanted to share it with you:

The Indian RN5pro is the same as the global Redmi Note 5, so has a common codename, Whyred, despite the minor differences in camera!

I hope you get this straight.
1. India Redmi note 5 (sd 625) is Redmi 5 plus(sd 625) in China.
2. In India Redmi note 5 pro(sd636) is Redmi note 5 (sd 636) in China.

Technically it should work, but in rn5 pro case it wouldn't. This is just a speculation from my side
Xiaomi released RN5 Pro way earlier than RN5 China and RN5 Global. At that time there's no RN5 China or even RN5 Global yet. So it can be assumed that they never tested or optimized this nougat rom for rn5 china.
After 1 month, they released RN5 China with Android 8.1. So, they should've been working on 8.1 but not on 7.1 for rn5 china which explains the camera incompatibility.
Now that RN5 Global is launched with 9.5.5 Oreo which has same harware specs as RN5 China, the upcoming Global Oreo update for RN5 Pro/RN5 Global should bridge the incompatibility between two slightly different specs. There should be no fcs with this update. Till then use china stable rom.
Now that RN5 Global is launched with 9.5.5 Oreo which has same ...

Unfortunately no. Even in Indonesia, it will be a hassle to buy this phone coz of flash sales. So, besides waiting, there is no other option.

As of this moment, flashing the Global ROM(Pro) on the Chinese Redmi Note 5(AI), works fine, even the camera. But flashing the China ROM on the Pro, breaks the camera app and causes force closes. Its better not to mix and match, according to me at least.

I have seen there was an announcement of the new Xiaomi Mi 6X. Specs are likely the same like Redmi Note 5 Pro.
Differences i have seen on the first view:
Xiaomi Mi 6X has USB Typ-C
Redmi Note 5 Pro has bigger battery
Some suggestions about that? Anybody can say something to the rom development? How was this in the past? Which of the two models will get more rom developement? Are there big advantages of Mi6X or Redmi Note 5 Pro?

There is a major difference of soc as well. Mi 6c has sd660 and note 5 pro has 636(which can said equivalent to 660 to some extent).
Regarding development, judging from the past mi5x( aka mi a1 in India) there won't be much developer support. RN5P will definitely have better community support out of these two.

What is this new global version? Is it another new Redmi Note 5 phone that different from both China and India versions?
Is there any hardware differences between China and Global, or Global vs Indian?

Hi everybody,
I am considering to buy this phone, (rmn8 pro), however it ships with the mediatek G90T processor. in the past my understanding was that ROM development for mediatek based phones is troublesome due to missing sources. Can anyone confirm this issue for me?
Would it therefore be better to buy the non pro version of rthe rmn8 shipping with an snapdragon 655 processor?
Yeah I'd like to know it too.
OK - so it seems that if we want custom ROMs we should go with the non pro version.
Based on xiaomis history and the development activity for the redmi note 3 snapdragon and redmi note 3 mediathek there is a considerable difference.
Furthermore it appears that it took 3 years for xiaomi to release the kernel source for the rmn 3 and the rmn 2 mediatek version. In general it appears that the source release is up to the OEMS - e.g. Xiaomi. Mediathek is known to only distribute the source to customers or people who are willong to pay.
This is kind of disappointing as the pro version of the rmn8 is quite a bit better.
Any other opinions ?
I want the pro version but mtk processor no way ill be buying as I want gcam and custom roms.
I would suggest you to wait for the Global launch because Xiaomi might launch RN8Pro with Snapdragon soc..

That could be the case, but I guess it won't happen as they try to create some hype around the new helio chips.
If Xiaomi released source code for kernel, there is chance for start develop custom ROMs and kernels, but SoC from Qualcomm Snapdragon still more universal. I think MediaTek will get custom ROMs/kernels but Gcam will be more problematic. In my opinion XDA members should try create better support for MediaTek SoC. Why ? MediaTek Helio G90T it's seriously impressive SoC with some more performance than SD730G.
The phone is very, very good
The phone is very, very good，Feel good, good color, great performance.

The problem is that MTK doesn't fully release the sources of their SoC's that's why it has low development here in XDA.

Exactly my thoughts.... Redmi Note 7 pro has lot of developments going on and it is better than Redmi Note 8.
Redmi note 8 has Samsung sensor which does not have much gcam support.
Redmi note 7 pro has Sony sensor which works flawlessly with gcam.

Well about development, sure note 7 Pro may have better Dev support coz it's an older device but as far as gcam support is concerned, you may be wrong, I'm using note 8 and it's working flawless. At least it's giving much better camera results when compared to poco

We already saw all the performance of Mediatek chip, the performance is not better than snapdragon. But redmi claims that the mediatek chip is better than snapdragon 712. What do you guys think about this?

Of course, G90T is more powerfull than SD712...
CPU : Cortex A76 are better than Cortex A75 (Kryo 360 is a very slight customisation)
GPU : Mali G76mc4 is better than Adreno 616
RAM : 2133Mhz is better than 1866 (both lpddr4x dual Channel)
ISP : 3x MNFR up to 64MP are better than 2x MNFR up to 48MP.
Thinking the opposite is nothing but forejudgement...or troll.
Of course, you can find some apps that will run better on 712 (for exemple, emulators), but it's not a problem of power but of app's unoptimized code.
Not everything is all about specs, but about optimization and quality of sources, of which Mediatek is not famous at all. Broken sources, ROMs filled with bugs and etc. It would be great, if Mediatek would have forums like CAF, that would considerably boost development, but...
I once used Mediatek device and got fed up with it being completely locked and sources being broken completely. My opinion, though.
Just look at the Xiaomi Redmi Pro ( this one ). It came with android 6.0 and never received any further android update. I had that phone, and even though it had a 4000mAh battery with amoled display, it was not able to last even a day.... After that phone, I will never buy another one with mediatek soc...

But it's not like that this time, I easily get 9 hours SOT with gaming.

My Redmi Note 8 Pro lasts for about a day and 10 hours mostly. At the end of the day there is almost 48% battery left. I'm much satisfied with its battery timings

I am very satisfied with Mediatek performance on this phone. I noticed big difference between Redmi note 7 that I have with Redmi note 8 pro that I have now.
Think things are different this time, the redmi N8 pro is a game changer this phone is awesome the battery life lasts all day power using and the phones a beast. i speed tested it against my sammy note 9 eight gig version and my Mi mix 3 eight gig version and it was neck and neck. But here we are a note 9 eight gig is a 1200$ phone and the mi mix 3 is a 450$ phone and a 240$ is running with them and the camera is outstanding better than the sammy n9 and the mm3 so dollars for dollars there's a big difference there.
same price as mi 9 lite...
i would go for the mi 9 lite

Friends - If you already got delivery from amazon or bought from mi store in India. Please help with following details:
1) LCD Panel - Tianma or something else. https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8/help/redmi-note-8-tianma-lcd-panel-t3991425
2) 48 MB - Samsung GM1 or GM2
3) LT FDD and TDD bands supported. 4G+ working? Now is call quality, signal strength, speed?
4) If anyone of you have a realme 3 pro or 5 pro handy, try to compare on Point 3 above.
5) Speaker quality?
6) Fingerprint speed. If you have used RN7pro or realme 3 pro or Realme 5 pro, it may seem slow. That is what I understood from some video reviews on youtube.
Plz help. Nitpicking but very confused between Redmi Note 8 and Realme 3 pro. Ordered both at same price.
Will accept one and cancel another order.
RN8 pros over RM3Pro - Type C, Led Notification, Cameras?, Ir Blaster, MiUI (not a fan, but better than color os)
RM3Pro over RN8 - Processor (Huge difference. SD710 is way ahead. Better ISP, Better core and speed, Better AI, Better LTE (X15). SD665 pubg options are very low ), Better call and network quality (I heard), Vooc Charger.
What do you suggest.
Someone help here with some insights please.

Custom Rom support on 3 pro is not that good. Still no official and stable roms. Multiple bugs. I have researched. I have been using custom roms for 5 years now Moto G1 and then Lenovo Z2 plus.
I consoled myself to adjust with Color OS also as SD 710 at this price is gr8 deal but color os specially on realme 3 pro has serious standby and battery drain issues it seems.
Except processor everything seems better on RN8.
SD665 is in a way downgrade from SD660 than an upgrade.

If I were you I would have gone with redmi note 7 pro which is at 12k (Sony imx 586 is beast) now but if you don't want that then you should wait for redmi note 9 as their odd no series is much better like redmi note 3,5,7 etc
And if you can't wait for it then gsi's can be installed on realme 3 pro and currently rom development hasn't taken pace for redmi note 8 too so I think little wait should be better.
One more thing realme launches devices more frequently and realme 6 box has came in leaks so whenever realme 6 pro launches you can get realme 5 pro in 10k (which will hardly take 6 months)
Conclusion : little patience and wait will be better if you don't need new device urgently

It is urgent. Sold my Lenovo Z2 plus on cashify. Battery would have died any day.
Using a freind's old phone temporarily.
Ordered both Realme 3 pro and Redmi note 8 at 9k. Have to settle with one of these for now.
Did lot of research. Not a single satisfactory phone in midrange without any flaws
So decided to go for less price for now and upgrade later after 1 year maybe.
Then go with realme 3 pro if can bear color os or can flash gsi (phusson sir's gsi's are pretty stable though) . And realme is working on more stock like rom too this is more bang for buck now. Faster charging and faster processor are the things you will notice in day to day life more rather than type c port and for camera gcam will do the job on both so you don't have to worry about cameras as both have capable sensors too

i am having Indian Unit.
1. IT has Tianama Panel
2.GM1 sensor
3.It supports all Indian 4G bands. And It has 4G+ (Jio) getting good net speed, signal strength and call quality is good, but ear piece is not that loud so u ill get bit low voice while u r on crowd place.
4. If u doesnt bother about 4G+ then u can go with realme 3 Pro. Their Color OS keep on getting improvements.
5. Loudspeaker is good but on max volume u ill get some distortions. 80% volume is good
6.FP is good no issues.
I am using realme 5 pro.. Color os is Not that bad.. and on debloting its very smooth. And use nova.. U will have good experiemce withsd 710.. And also cameras are good .Gcam improves it.. Also charging speed will definitely gives peace of mind. I like vooc charger.. And reception is better than my previous galaxy devices.. Internet speeds too..
