Hi guys!!I have an oneplus 5 8gb/128gb and i like it very much!!Does it worth to sell it and buy 5T?
Pls help me decide.Thank you.
Maby wait for the oneplus 6, I had a oneplus 5 but the oneplus 5t screen ratio is many times better.
Also no strange things when scrolling like the oneplus 5.
That is just it, If u want more changes just wait for the new Oneplus.
But only the screen ratio is it worth in my opinion.
Screen ratio seems awesome but i dont like software keys and back fingerprint scanner..What about camera?
Any other opinions pls?
Don't mess with oneplus 5

Wait for the 6 dude. No reason to change at moment. Same camera quality. Same phone with a gimmick display. Do not play their game. Waste of time and money. If you have cash to burn, go head, but, not worh it. Imo. Make the same Im doing: buy a Mi A1, sell your op5, save some money and get a pixel 2 xl an then sell the Mi A1 to recovery some money. Op5 and 5t become a dead phone, they will not be include on project treble, in orther words: probably no android p updates.
Hey there,
I've been using my redmi note 5 pro for more than a week now, and straight up the camera packed on this thing is really good. But for a tech YouTube like me, who compares this phones with the top flagship devices, the results are inconsistent.
First off I compared it with iPhone X, and was shocked with the results. The redmi note 5 pro performed so much better than the iPhone X. Now some people may say that comparing the two is not fair as there is a humongous price difference between the two. But xiaomi itself said that the phone was a natural competitor with phones like iPhone X and Google Pixel 2.
SO I HAD TO COMPARE IT WITH GOOGLE PIXEL 2 XL. But the results weren't so good. When compared to pixel's images, note 5 pro's images look washed out and soft. But it didn't lack completely back, as note 5 packing a bigger aperture did a little better than pixel 2 in low light situations, but again the results were pretty inconsistent. So at the end of the day no one can match Google's amazing algorithms of HDR+.
But I think if someone can port the Google camera in note 5 pro it will perform so much better as these two device pack almost identical camera hardware.
I'm not sure if camera 2 api is fully unlocked in this phone, can somebody please tell me how to do it. Do I just need to download the Google camera apk from the internet? I'm really curious to see how the redmi note 5 pro will perform with Google camera's algorithms.
Peace
You need to unlock your bootloader first and than flash twrp and magisk and than you can enable camera api 2 by editing Build.prop

Pixel has a bigger aperture, also with a larger pixel size than the note 5 pro... low light won't be better on the note 5 pro.
I rooted, enabled camera 2 api, installed google camera....but Google camera images had a lot of noise compared to stock camera(you can see noise on zooming into the pic)

Google cam cant make RN5Pro images better. No google phone has dual cameras so Gcam will always use single lens to capture images

Our phone is also using single lens to capture images except portrait
120 fps video recording
the soc snapdragon 636 can have the feature of 1080p recording at a frame rate of 120fps, so can we able to record this on redmi note 5 pro using any third party app by rooting?

yeah on redmi note 3
perhaps it is necessary to install modified driver for the camera. (if this exists).
in youtube i saw a video that teached where find and install the driver, then install google camera on a note 4.
the difference in the photo (with original driver and with modified driver + google camera) was remarkable.

B
The second camera in rn5p is a depth sensor! So the primary lens does all the work and gcam will only use the primary lens ! So why wont it make the images better.
Though for A1 both lens Gcam has been ported at it works great!!!

Dude, I'm too eager to see this. I have a Redmi 4 Prime and the Cameracam API enabled with Gcam have worked miracles on my photos. I'm looking forward to buying RN5P, but I'd like to see your photos better.

Hi friends,
I want to know that, Redmi note 5 pro is still worth to buy, and if not then which phone is better under 15k.
My needs by ranking:
1. Performance
2. Battery Backup
3. Camera
I have seen multiple comparisons between several phones at this price range but didn't find any better, also as i am an android developer i think future development will be better with note 5 pro what do you think?
1. Pocophone F1 (it's really as good as it is)
2. Redmi note 5 pro (the mod support is too good)

Redmi Note 5 Pro still worth because it has gained a lot of Custom Rom and developers support.
But if Nokia's lineup(5.1, 6.1) or Mi A2 price drops then they worth Buying. I also see Infinix brand came with Android One. If you love Stock android then you might also try Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1.
I've watched almost every Mi Max 3 video on Youtube but I always noticed that the Mi Max 3 display looks really dull, colours don't pop, blacks aren't very deep.
I know this is an IPS panel, not AMOLED/OLED but what concerned me is this video . As I am coming from an iPhone 7 plus that has an IPS panel, I want the display quality to at least be somewhat equal if i'm "upgrading", I know the specs won't be better than iPhone 7 plus but I really really want a bigger screen for media consumption.
I know this video is comparing the Mi Max 2 and iPhone 7 plus but I can't find any direct comparison on the Mi Max 3. Is the Mi Max 3's display significantly better than Mi Max 2 and is it comparable to the iPhone 7 plus display?
Can anyone who have an iPhone and Mi Max 3 show comparison photos between both phones picture quality if possible? :fingers-crossed:
PS: Also are there any display issues with this Mi Max 3? Such as the "Blue Shift" when viewing off-angle?
Send me an iPhone to compare it to and I'll gladly take those pictures.

With cream and cherry on top.
Edit: Seriously though, the display is just fine.
I came from a Mi Mix 2 and even had a OnePlus 3 for some time and have nothing to complain about.

Agreed, I came from a Samsung Note 8, and it's nearly as good.
I'm also coming from a Samsung Note 8 & Note 9, and am finding that I prefer the Max 3. The picture quality and screen clarity is almost as good as both Note's. Am actually going to be returning my Note 9 and keeping my Note 8 as a back up phone. Hope that helps.

Also I noticed you used to own a Huawei P8Max. I actually used to own a P8 Max 2 years ago but unfortunately water damaged it while I was holidays. :crying:
Could you please let me know how is the display/picture quality of the Mi Max 3 compared to the P8 Max? Is it much better?
Also are there any pros or cons between the two devices? Or is the Mi Max 3 better than the P8 Max in every way?

Mi Max 3 is better in every single way. :laugh:
I read about some problems like:
- Proximity sensor
- Some ads in the rom
and some other bugs and that is disappointed after all...
Xiaomi MIUI software is not good about all? I think they not going to fix the proximity sensor.
Or that is better buying some OnePlus device?
Xiaomi.EUI is better than Global and debloated?
proximity sensor is definitely an issue when you're in a call the screen does not lock properly, anything software related can be fixed only time will tell if it's a good device, for me i always buy phones around $400 so this one was my go to choice

But you have devices like OnePlus 9R or maybe some Realme or something..
OP has better software
I have some previous device at my home and with same issue after ton of updates so.. Xiaomi doesnt fixed the problems..
oneplus 9R is $100 more, as i said software don't count, i never use stock roms anyway, i only lock boot loader when i'm selling or giving the phone away other wise it's the build quality that counts, i had oneplus 8t for a few months and i was disappointed because i thought buying a more expensive phone would make a difference and 9r is the same i skipt all previous generations of poco and i still think f3 is worth every penny

if you're buying a phone and want clean software out of the box, Pixel phones are ur best bet for a budget, they are the closest manufacturer to apple when if comes to reliability, all other brands have buggy software at best, oxygen os might look like stock aosp but it's very poorly designed.

Depends, if you plan to play heavy game (genshin impact for example), it's a perfect "budget" phone. But if playing isn't your primary goal, there are better globally phone.
Proximity sesnsor has been fixed to a degree (I don't notice a problem on my unit at all), of course there will be more firmware updates to iron out the rest of the minor kinks.
I don't game or use the camera too much, it was between this phone and the Redmi Note 10 Pro (I didn't want an olrder device from Xiaomi simply because one more year worth of updates is well worth the trade off).
For me, the price difference would have been minor if I got the 8/128GB version of the Redmi Note 10 Pro instead of the 8/256GB Poco F3.
So I went with the better looking, better built, better performing, better features (120Hz AMOLED, Dolby and X-Axis Haptics) and IMHO the better value phone (Xiaomi.EU China rom versus Xiaomi.EU Global rom on the Redmi Note 10 Pro).

Well, redmi note 10 pro has 120hz amoled and Dolby. The camera is better, if he isn't planning to game at all, I would go for the redmi note 10 pro, the built quality is better, the camera is superior, but the chipset is too weak to really play.

My bads Redmi Note 10 Pro indeed has 120Hz but no Dolby.
He needs to decide what's important to him, performance or camera or spend more for both.

How much I need to spend more for the both things?
Not take pictures a lot but yeah play games.
I read that the proximity sensor is hardware problem.
Maybe OnePlus 9R for better software and without bugs?
I don't get all the fuzz about the proximity sensor. It's "weird" in that it combines accelerometer and camera, but it does work, unless you make phone calls while lying down on the bed. I've had no issues with it whatsoever.
OnePlus 9R is a great alternative, the main camera support OIS and it has the same chipset as the Poco F3.
And yes with more optimized and arguably better software, it's pretty affordable too.
Perhaps if you wait a bit more after the summer, we might see a Mi 11T and Galaxy S21 FE.

So maybe 9R worth it? yeah that is 100$ more but you got better software..
But if you got the 9R.. you can added 100$ more and got the regular Oneplus 9... so..
Write down your reason to buy new phone.
Write your need in priority order, we are not you, we don't know your situation. Worth or not is subjective.
Camera, SoC, local price of phone, warranty, system update, community, reason to buy phone, where you live, budget limit ... etc.
Remember, no compare no despair. Get use to phone you buy.
Suggest you buy all, Poco F3 + OnePlus 9R + OnePlus 9. Worth? Yes worth, 2 for me and you keep one. Worth for me.

You have the option of stopping some adds, uncheck all kinds of miui optimization, referrence, suggestion, feedback, also some option ull find in developer mode. I have done it in mu Poco F1, didnt find a single add in 2years of use. I havent bought the F3 yet but hopefully its the same principle. You can remove bloatware via xiaomi fastboot tool. U dont need to unlock the bootloader.
It seems mostly that you're searching reasons to not get the Poco F3 instead of asking if is worth or not
In your case, get a OnePlus 9R/9 or a Pixel phone and you will be fine, their software is easily a ton better that Xiaomi MIUI and they shouldn't have the issues you mentioned either (Proximity sensor and ads)
I agree, he's nitpicking at the flaws of phone instead of thinking of what he needs in a phone and comparing it with the competition.
There's no perfect phone out there regardless of money and just for record, "I don't like Apple products".
