Redmi 5 Plus (Note 5) vs Redmi Note 5 Pro - What to buy?

Apart from the dual cameras and the new 636 SoC, what else is there to upgrade to this from a RN5?
Lacks all the Mid-Range premium features like NFC, USB-Type C etc.

Obviously the Note 5 Pro!

Well I think I am gonna wait for Moto G6 Plus. It will surely have NFC and probably USB-C too. I am using Android Pay (G5 Plus) and although I don't need it, it would be annoying to go back.

If you're going for the Redmi Note 5, then go for the 3GB/32GB variant. And if you're going for the Redmi Note 5 Pro, then go for the 4GB/64GB. Both are worth are that price

Note 5 Pro
Redmi Note 5 Pro has many features that engaged you to buy it. It has a stunning 5.99-inches full-HD+ (1080x2160) display with stunning image quality. It's dual rear camera makes it more beautiful.
Pros:
Gorgeous Display
Great Camera Quality under daylight conditions
Excellent Battery Backup
No lag while multi-tasking and gaming
Fast and Accurate Face unlock
Cons:
No fast charging
Hybrid Sim Slot

Mi 10T Vs Oneplus 8T due to price

In my country Oneplus 8T is 809$ after taxes where's Mi 10T (not the pro version) is 435$ after taxes, which one should i get? Is 8T really worth the higher price?

I tried both, and for the price, I would get the MI 10T
the only difference is the screen and the UI, if you like OLED blacks and are ready to spend 400 more then go for the 8T.
other than that the MI10T is better in battery and main/Selfie camera
to my eyes, the LCD from the MI10T is quite good and almost on par with an OLED

there are huge problem with the mi 10t / pro
proximity sensor no fix yet
loudspeakers mic
DnD
etc

I had the same doubts as you.
Go for Mi 10 T Pro.
After years of using Samsung's and OP's with AMOLED screens I have switched from OP 6T to Mi 10 T Pro and have no regrets. To be honest, my advice would be go to the store first and check does the size of the phone suits you because it's a bit bulky phone, but looking at what you get for the price I don't see reason why to pay almost double the price for OP 8T.
I have read many reviews and my only worry was the screen as it's LCD, but the screen is excellent. The difference is only visible if you put phone with OLED side by side with Mi 10 T, otherwise I can say only the best for it.

Mi 10T Pro or S20FE

I asked the same in the S20FE Forums but thought i'd ask here too.
I'm looking to replace my S10e with a larger phone. It's down to Mi10T Pro or S20FE. I will have to get the Exynos Version of the S20. It seems to be a toss up between the OLED Screen on the Samsung and the easier unlock plus Snapdragon on the Mi10T.
I don't care for cameras too much, i don't consume media on my phone, i know MIUI and OneUI and don't mind either. I've had great experience with Xiaomi and Samsung in the past. The only thing i'm a bit worried about is coming from an OLED Screen (S10e) to an IPS one might be a bit jarring when it comes to text contrast.
The xiaomi will be marginally cheaper (a few bucks).
Since i'll get it through my carrier, i can't get the regular Mi10 anymore. I debated waiting for the Mi11 but that will be quite a bit more expensive and i really don't need the increase in performance.
So what do you think? AMOLED + Exynos or IPS + Snapdragon?

Its up to u, s20 fe is really good phone too. I actually decided to go with mi 10t since fe and 10tpro are 100e more than 10t and they are not that better for that much difference, camera is 5% better and mi 10t is still capable of making some great shots. According to screen ive used 9t before and i can tell that i like IPS more and its faster refresh rate is amazing, but it doesnt have aod and super wallpapers so its one downside for me.

Mi 10T Pro is a much better phone overall, which is amazing given it's way cheaper than the S20FE. One of the best value phones hands down.
Software wise is less bloated and offers a better Android experience.
Hardware is so much better in every single area. The camera is very very good, the battery performance is stellar, the screen is top notch for an IPS LCD screen. Then Exynos vs Snapdragon, dilemma in which I prefer Snapdragon.
Now there's a few things which might be deal breakers for people:
-No IP68 (I've never had the need for this in my life, phone is unusable when swimming anyways), but if you love boating, beaches or swimming then this might be a deal for you.
-ANY AMOLED screen it's light years ahead of even the best LCD screens. It's day and night difference: the contrast, the colors, everything. Pictures with bright colors on day light they're comparable, as soon as there's an image with heavy contrast, shadows or black on it then it's VERY obvious the differences specially indoors. When web browsing or scrolling around the menus you won't notice, as soon as you open a photo or a nice wallpaper, you'll see how bad LCD screens are compared to AMOLED.
-Developer community is still dead for the Mi 10T.
I came from a Mi 9T Pro, and the AMOLED screen it's a big deal... But I really wanted the infinite lasting battery of the Mi 10T and the IR blaster. As an added bonus I found out the camera, specially video recording and low light photos is so but so much better. But once you go AMOLED is very hard to go back to LCD.
Just because of the Samsung bloatware I'd avoid them like a plague, and you'd think a Chinese manufacturer would be worse but overall Xiaomi is better than the rest, they have done a pretty good job from hardware to software. It's a solid and nice product.
And for the money of an S20 FE you're better off buying a Google Pixel 5 which is pretty good if you don't mind the "OK" battery.
Or better yet go for the Mi 10 Ultra or Mi 11 Pro which is around the corner.

Snapdragon 865 in Mi 10T Pro is 30% faster than the Exynos on S20... and also better thermal control and less throttling.
I agree the LED on 10T vs Amoled on S20 is a slight downer, however the 10T PRo is 144Hz refresh vs 120 on Samsung S20
Battery life is undoubletly better on Xiaomi compared with Samsung, and also the battery in 10T Pro is a lot larger (5000mah)
Look on eBay or FB for best prices on borh phones before you make your final decision.
(I got a 2nd hand Mi 10T PRo brand new - with genuine UK Mi 30w charger, but no retail box - for £380 on FB Marketplace )
I'm also excited about the upcoming Mi 11 range but agree with you... Mi 11 prices for next 3-6 months will be much higher than for Mi10 , even 2nd hand ones.
Either S20 FE or Mi 10T Pro will be a great device for you, but my vote goes for the Mi 10T Pro.
(P.S. go for 256GB storage option as Mi 10 devices do not support SD Card expansion).

well it's not a direct comparison , but i've upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 , and I miss the Note 8's Amoled screen.. it's much much better that Mi 10T Pro's LCD if you factor out the smooth 144hz screen , everything else is much bettter on the Xiaomi... oh forgot about note8 is thinner at that Spen

The contrast on Mi 10T/Pro is high but not on the same level of OLED screens. Probably the best LCD I've seen on a phone.

guys i found the s20fe 5g and the mi10t in the same price wich one should i choose both of them are equiped with sd865

I have nothing to complain but im not really happy about the battery usage tbh. But im using my phone a lot too.
For everything else i am very happy with my OP8Pro.

I used the OnePlua 8 Pro in 2020, edge 20 Pro in 2021.
You will get about 50% of the battery life of the edge 20 Pro. edge 20 Pro has a newer and much more efficient display, at FHD rather than 1440p. Exceptional battery life on the edge.
OnePlus 8 Pro has a better camera all round, but no periscope zoom.
Stick with the edge unless you really need water resistance, wireless charging, or the main camera. For all of these you are better off waiting for newer products anyway.

Question Oneplus 9 pro Vs Oneplus 8T

Hi Guys !
To those of you who have tried both terminals and with a price difference of 150 euros more for the 9 pro. You currently, which one would you choose?
Although the question seems obvious, in many comparisons they say that the 8t is practically as fast opening apps and its autonomy is also similar.
I know that the 9 pro camera is better but the curved screen I don't know if it will be the most practical.
What is your opinion ?
Thank you very much !

Came from Op8T. A few short comments
I'd say the size of 9Pro is bit clumsy for me. Speed is about the same. Battery might be a bit better, but difficult to notice. Have to give it more time.
Cell reception seems better. Speakers are much more louder and nicer sounding. Camera of course is noticeably better, especially zoom.
Overall solid upgrade, but I wish the Op9pro was smaller. For 150 Eur difference I would say its worth it. I got mine for 400 EUR, brand new (via deal I found on reddit)

They're pretty similar overall. Of course the 9 pro has the upgraded cameras, 8k/hdr and wireless charging. Coming from the 7tp5g, I REALLY don't like curved screens. I was very happy to find out the curve of the 9 pro is minimal. I can barely tell, especially with a case on. The 9 (non pro) has a flat screen if that was an option you're looking at. I notice a speed increase for opening games over the 7tp5g but virtually all 'normal' activities are the same. Plenty fast.
There is the certification for ip68 with the 9 pro if you're one to wash your phone often or your phone insurance requires ip68 certification. However, I've washed my 5T and 7TP5g dozens of times and they both still work great. I took the 7 swimming and it was/is fine. I'd expect the 8T to be water resistant also. I've read some people say they need the certification for their phone insurance so figured I should mention it.
The 9 pro uses ltpo display whereas the 8T does not. The 9 pro has wireless charging and reverse wireless charging.
One other thing to consider is the 9 pro has a better radio. Rather, I should say, the radio supports more bands. Depending on your country/area and service, it may be a bigger benefit than it would be to some others.
I went 5T->7TP5G->10T->9P. I feel OnePlus I used to love is dead and gone now. It made sense for me to get the last version of the "real" OnePlus lineup. Which is the 9 series. Development for the 10 is limited and will remain limited until an msm solution is found.
If you're one that cares about 8k/hdr, needs more band support for service, use wireless charging, takes a lot of pictures or prefer ltpo, or need to charge your headphones on the go with reverse charging - it may be worth it for you. If those really don't matter for you, save the money and get the 8T
