      saad, 11 Dec 2020For daily use (social media and youtube) how good is this phone? Is there any lagg issue if no... moreSorry the RAM ideas are nonsens. As long as RAM is enough for the system + apps there will be no difference in behaviour. Proof: Two identical smartphones, one with 3 GB RAM, the other with 4 GB RAM. Notice the fps at different tests -- all almost identical! Here it is:

        Dan, 12 Dec 2020By regrets, do you mean PUBG, or everyday usage?I have 3/32, and it is clearly not designed for heavy gaming like PUBG and COD Mobile. Minecraft still rocks and works at a solid 50-60 FPS. But apps do indeed reload a lot. I recommend the 4/64 as well. For regular usage, 3/32 is okay as well, but the one more gigabyte of RAM just gives a huge boost.

Remove most of Xiaomi native apps that you never going to use. Decrease screen resolution to 720p using XIAOMI ADB TOOL.
              I tried 100's of combinations of tweaking and got a very minor performance increase. I must say just skip this phone. Go for realme or infinix whatever, just skip xiaomi budget phones.

                      I have bought this budget blower on Friday, and I gotta say. It's the BEST phone under 150 dollars. Poco M3 is just basically a rebrand of this with no Ultrawide lens and 1000mAh more. Both are great though! But if you are planning to get the 3/32, be aware that it is NOT designed for gaming. I have the 3/32 variant and apps reload a bit, and it can lag a bit as well. Definitely go for the 4/64 if you do have the budget to do so! The 3/32 is good if you just use social media and do light gaming like playing Among Us and watching YouTube (which is down atm), but I will still prefer you to go for 4/64. Overall, a steal for under 150 dollars!

                          I can't decide between buying the Redmi 9 or the Nokia 5.3, both phones are in the same price range in my country. I'm not a gamer, I just want a phone that is very multipurpose and I intend on using for a long time
