I love this phone it does everything I want it to do! There is a multitude of built in apps like multi functional Calculator BMI, age, currency ect, Calendar app is good but I prefer google calendar, Compass, Clock app for timer, stopwatch and alarm, there's a Themes and Backgrounds app so you don't have to install apps from the play store or download images from the browser which is really nice I'm using isolation backgrounds for mine, Weather app, Screen Recorder app pretty amazing for a budget device, QR code Scanner app, Notes is ok but I prefer Google Keep, Music, Mi Video, Mi Remote if your TV and devices support IR blasting, Mi Browser, Gmail, Google Calendar, Google Duo, Google Drive, Digital Wellbeing, Google Chrome, Google Lens, Google Maps, Gallery app, FM Radio, File Manager, playing games is nice on this phone as it has a big screen the teardrop notch isn't really noticeable you can hide it but you'll suffer screen real estate, lag isn't really an issue I just want a device that can handle multiple apps and can open them quickly which this does well, dual apps is great you can open two of the same app and use another account with it, cleaner and security built in I use this regularly. The Samsung 48MP Camera is decent it takes ok shots it blurs around the sides of the image so taking snaps up close is difficult. You can install google camera and play around with it if you don't like the stock camera app. Calls and texts are great and the single loudspeaker is loud the notifications aren't annoying I use nature sound 2 .I use CPL launcher and Pixel pie icon pack and it's fantastic with google feed on right swipe just like on the stock google devices! Overall it's a really nice budget device with lots of features that a lot of other phones don't have at this price.
I have swapped to this phone after using the Redmi 2. Trust me, this is worth the price. ~200€ for this phone is too good. It can (and probably will) compete with newer, more expensive iPhones or Samsungs. People say that the camera is bad, but that is a lie. If you use it right, it can be even better. You have customization over everything.
Pro Tip for all who bought this and have the watermark on the pictures: Go to the camera settings and you will find the option for a device watermark.
Anonymous, 31 May 2020Try using MiFlash to reinstall softwareI did flashing fastboot ROM using Mi Flash Tool after unlocking bootloader but still the problem persists then I installed Orange Fox Recovery and installed Evolution X 4.3 Custom ROM and surprisingly WiFi and Hotspot is working again unlike in MIUI Stock ROM.
This phone is good to some extend. But the thing is the display is really bad. It shows the previous items on the screen. And also the battery is really bad even it is 4000hrs camera is also not good. Its really bad. Not good for mobile photography. But when it comes to the memory its better than other phones. But I really miss my Old samsung phone.

Just bought for this phone second hand for half the price because my primary phone broke and wasn't switching on. Facing problem. WiFi and Hotspot is not turning on.. Tried factory resetting and wiping data from recovery.. Everything else is working fine.. If anyone has solution please help me..
The phone is decent, not bad but not great either.
there are some issues with the display but then again it is a budget phone so you get what you pay for.
I bought mine last august 2019 and now the mainboard/motherboard is dead, It didn't fall, doesn't have water damage, i only used it for light gaming, as far as i'm concerned there was no overheating since i was charging it and i wasn't using. It died when i unplugged the charger. because of the quarantine i'm still unsure on why the mainboard/motherboard died although i am positive that the motherboard/mainboard is dead because there are no lights, force rebooting isn't working also.
do i recommend this device? Not really specially if you value longevity, and battery life since there are better alternatives.
i need help, should i buy redmi note 7 or redmi note 8. i cant see much difference other than camera and a little bit of cpu
WALLET KILLER, 15 Apr 2020too damn hot for playing or just chiling Honestly, this phone is hyped up for no reason. It literally sucks in every way. It's only suitable for stay at home moms that can charge it any time and only use Facebook.
Only good thing about is that some Gcam Developer decided to purchase this phone and make Gcam for it. Otherwise, even its camera is terrible.

Since I was fed up of MIUI and it's "optimizing" I decided to try a custom rom. First of all, I had to unlock my bootloader with a specific app that is completely unnecessary if you look at other manufacturers. I flashed AOSP rom with Android 10 and Gapps. After that when I started my phone it wanted a password. I tried EVERY SINGLE PASSWORD I used for accounts and for my phone. Had to factory reset from twrp and remove the Google accounts using my PC. Even the struggles were real, I am not willing to turn to MIUI ever again. This custom rom made my phone 2 times faster, has better ram and storage manage and the battery life is the same. I am so grateful I decided to do this.
