Abk, 06 Sep 2020I've purchased 5i yesterday and last night it downloaded Android 10 and forcing to update... moreJust click the notification and it will take you to the software update page, once you're there press the back button (dont click download now) and the notification will dissapear on your notification bar. When you restart your phone in the future, there will be update notification, just repeat the same process all over again. Hope this help

very hansem, 06 Sep 2020For the price, this phone is a real bargain. I am a gamer and this phone can play lots of game... moreNot so much can handle gaming on snapdragon 665 while high frame on pubg mobile it can only match 30fps, but for me I would prefer redmi note 9s cause can support until 40-45 fps while playing pubg with SD 720G and also update Android 10 on realmi 5i is so lagging then the device using USB type B cable in year 2020 that has no fast charging

Realme UI update killed the 5i
on ColorOS 6.1 it handled easy tasks like nothing and csn handle multiple tasks no sweat thanks to the integration of a smoother UI.
on Realme UI it lags after an hour of usage this may he due to the fact that the system of the 5i hasn't integrated the OS thaat well so it takes quite a LOT of RAM in order to run the OS and yep it overheats a lot after the realme UI update
tl;dr buy a 5i it's the best bang for the buck phone but never update it to realme UI (android 10) it kills it's performance
- from somebody that bought the 5i since it launched here in the Philippines (Feb 2)

For the price, this phone is a real bargain. I am a gamer and this phone can play lots of gamecube games and dreamcast games. Doom 3 run on high settings with very smooth frame rates. As for the micro usb charging, it is really good for battery health and longevity which I prefer.
