Hello Guys,
I have a one plus 3 now and a iPhone 7 Plus 128gb. I was thinking on moving from one plus 3 ( I Never had any issues with it ).
One plus 3 is Running on AquariOS with ElementalX Kernel on 7.1.2.. The reasons I wanted to take honor 8 pro is
1. Bigger Battery .
2. Better Screen.
3. More Space.
4. Low price Compared to one plus 5.
5. Maybe a new experience..
Suggest me pleaseeee? Pro's and Con's and if there are any better alternatives at lower price. Please let me know....thank you

The only con you'll face is EMUI (compared to Oneplus's OxygenOS), everything is better on honor 8 pro.
And about EMUI, don't worry, the devs are working on Cutsom ROMs, and soon they'll be fully stable.
As for better alternatives at lower prices, I guess there's honor 9

I am using emui for the first time and really loving it. It's not like MIUI which completely changes everything.

Yeah, it's great ( on marshmallow it was a little bit ugly)

Hello guys,
I need your honest opinion.
I need to get a new device. I only use blackberry old phone at this moment.
I am thinking of mi 6 or mi A1? Which one do you think is better?
I am thinking a1 for the price and stock android (what I love with oneplus before) but I like also to have snapdragon 835 and EIS for camera.
EIS also affect the quality of normal photos or videos only? I have shaky hands by the way.
Please advice.
Pricing:
mi a1 = 749 aed
mi 6= 1399 aed
Thanks guys
Mi 6 is better
Buy Mi 6 and install custom rom if you like stock.

Which custom ROM would you recommend? I couldn't find any with a battery performance and camera as good as the original one...
Mi 6 is flagship grade. A1 is midrange grade. The answer is very obvious.
imo
Brother! I have both the me A1 and the Mi 6 and the MI6 is so awesome and way better than the A1. Don't get me wrong, I like the A1 but the Mi 6 is so much faster and has many custom roms. If you look for the Mi A1 right now in the XDA forums there are no ROMs as of yet! The size of the Mi 6 is also much better than the size of the A1! I promise you brother!! You cannot go wrong with Mi 6!. It is an absolute pleasure to hold and to use!! And the dual firing speakers makes this a special beast! I personally love the MI6. I am selling my Mi A1
mi 6 is the best choice bro, good luck
Yep I had both the mi 6 was smaller in hand and snappier. Battery life similar on miui. Cam was also better
Mi6 my choice
I'd say if stock is more important to you and you dont mind weaker hardware - Mi A1.
You can install custom rom on mi6, but there will be bugs.
When my nexus died, I needed a replacement phone quick and A1 was not available. Having played with mi6 for a few month now, I'd probably bought A1 if I had a choice... or OnePlus5

Why don't you try LOS or AOSPA rom?

Basically two reasons:
I used custom aosp rom on nexus 4 when official support ended and while it works, you need to jump through some hoops to get everything working and wipe the phone (cba).
There is no Oreo roms. Updates will be late at least and most likely there will be bugs.
I know I should just get a pixel, but google has some issues with displays it seems.

Regular sized pixel 2 display is fine. Just the XL if seems.
So don't let it put you off.
Gf has it and is very happy and it is a little bit better than my mi 6 for software updates etc.
Performance is barely better like scrolling in chrome looks nice but google on Google will always be better with their optimizations.
If you need a performance device get one with the SD 835 its an amazing chip.
Blazing fast and no heat even on custom ROMs on Mi 6

RR with custom (Hasty) kernel. Perfect SoT and perfomance.:good:
Any one knows when will the custom roms arrive for this device i know itll take time but i need to prepare myself of how long will i need to use the miui
Maybe 4 or 5 months, since xiaomi is always late to release kernel source it will take some time to get stable ROM
dual boot patcher is already available for the Note 5, i hope they can get it for the Pro soon so i can have Miui/LineageOS together
what the adv of having a dual boot ?
obviously you have the choice of either the oem or custom rom to boot.
Damn! The phone isn't even on sale yet. DAMN!
2-3 months

First of all, people and devs should buy the device! And it is possible to get ROMs before the Kernel Source release, as devs create custom kernel. So, it may take 2-3 months
patience is a virtue
Hey Shahan. Will you be here as a developer for Redmi Note 5 pro? Then it is like heaven. Currently I own Mi4 with your Nitrogen OS.

Though my question is somewhat unusual but any developers interested in building custom roms for Zenfone Max M1 pro. Was about to buy Redmi note 5 pro then Asus released this phone. Now I am confused. Also which phone will have a better future on XDA?

In terms of development on xda, RN5P will definitely have better support. Evident from previous xiaomi devices.
I think Redmi Note 5 Pro Will Develop More Custom Rom Than Zenphone M1 Pro

RN5 by a mile
The 5,000 mah battery and Vainilla Android is tempting but:
-No EIS
-No IR Blaster
-No Gorilla Glass or Oleophobic coating on the screen
-Inferior Selfie cam
-Low Development
So the Redmi Note 5 / 5 Pro is the clear winner

Zuk z2 plus!
This phone has a pretty good camera, UIis crap for stock but sexy on custom ROMs
Sent from my ZUK Z2 Plus using XDA Labs
I haven't own or used or even ever seen a Mi 5 Prime.
I have owned / used (rather using) Mi Note 5 Pro, Mi Note 4 and I have seen hands on (friends and family) Mi A1, Mi 4A / 5A and Note 5. I am also using Zuk Z2 Plus.
Now based on this experience and judging from above mentioned Xiaomi devices, I would chose Mi 5 over Z2 Plus. Reasons ?
Better Camera, since Mi 5 seems to be having 16MK with OIS. OIS does make a hell lot of difference.
Certified support for QC 3.0. Though Z2 Plus does support QC but that's via Custom ROM and an uncharted trial and error territory.
MiUi. Personally I hate it, but I can't deny the frequency of update Xiaomi has. Always uptodate security patches plus they update even their 5 year old devices to latest android version, not just security patches !!
Support for Custom ROM. Though both ZUK and Xiaomi are in same place here, for their wide range of custom rom, but combined with above mentioned points, Mi5 would be my choice !!

its 3/64g only. I'm having hard time with MIUI and I can't even apply for an unlock for my device.
That's why im looking at the ZUK Z2.

This is a different issue. Your personal issue with Mi 5 Prime which you already have. But as device wise, I would prefer Mi 5 Prime over Z2 Plus as in overall.
MiUi is full of ads, yes some bugs, but at least they are on steroid with their update cycle I see. My note 5 pro isn't yet a week old, got 10GB update lol. Started with 9.5.x, did, 9.5.11/.13/.14/.15 and now doing 9.2.6. Compare that to Z2 Plus, released with Android 6.0, got one update to nougat, ZUI 2.5 and there it stopped. No patch, no nothing.
If we compare bugs, MiUi is no where close to what ZUI 2.5 had for us.
Is worth it change my phone to a Mi 10t lite ?
I send my Poco F2 pro and keep , Redmi note pro 9 5g! Its not so important CPU . there is no big difference , but the rest, fresh rate , 108 mpx camera, fingerprint sensor on side.. phone is awesome for me .. I win it on Mi community on same game , and I got Chinese version. I was thought that I will get regular note 9 pro , and start looking for buyers to sell ,but when I open the box and see 9pro 5g, totally change my mind.
i was have Poco f2 pro about 6 monts and it sas time to move on.. this is the first 730g series CPu that I get but do the job,it not so import , camera is a beast...and thats why I like a like it ...

these mi phone with their heavily skinned stock rom are not making any sense after installing a custom rom or rooting as its not increasing any performance and more over that its causing more trouble than solving a few. it makes more sense to stick with a minimalistic stock rom providing brand.

How can you justify not having better performance in custom ROMs with MI devices?
I'm running a Mi10i. I hate MIUI because of how bloated it is. And unresponsive.
Switching over to something like AOSP really did help the device maintain its speed and battery life.
