Still ok lo you bought at RM600, I bought mine at RM680.
Actually I don't use for canggih2 apps/stuff too. Mostly browse internet and FB, Twitter, chatting like WhatsApp, watch iFlix, Youtube. Can't say it lags actually. Some apps hang like I said ya got, but even then only once every few days or more, after restart ok again.
If your unit feels like laggy and hang, maybe it has problems? Manufacturing defects or something? Try download a benchmarking app. I used Antutu and score is between 666XX and 721XX if I recall correctly.

FB is famous of its app not optimize good enough for android, try "Swift" it is a alternate app i use for FB browsing &it perform silky smooth.

If you know how to flash rom with unlock bootloader, i recommend nougat 7.1.2 pixel aosp, no bug no lag and battery life much more better than on stock MIUI.
*
Doubt is the app, most likely is the miui issue. My wife samsung j7 was performing well and very responsive.

I try install aosp few time and failed and almost brick my phone. Got to use flasher toolkit to install back. You have any specif reference site you use for flashing the rom?

1st you have to know your Redmi Note 3 is Kenzo, MTK or Kate version? Flasing wrong rom definately brick your phone. 2nd is your fingerprint sensor is fpc or goodix

When you flash aosp rom have you unlock bootloader? Because just want to unlock bootloader it's quite tricky for some user.

At the 1st page there is a guide to unlock bootloader, install TWRP & rooting.

Mine is SD 2/16 version, and boot-loader unlock, talking about TWRP, i can't get it install. Just manage to launch it via fastboot.

He face ram problem i think.

This phone can use vr? Cardboard style? How is it?
*
Ram no problem. This phone need reboot every alternate day, if not it will be lagy. Even kill all apps.

The obvious slow will be keyboard take like 2+sec to load up. While my old redmi note 2 lauch like immediate.

Sunday installed miui9 dev room. The gps are better, not 100% fix, 7/10 times it lock fast, remaining times I need few mins. Not as bad as 8.5.6

This weekend will try custom room.

My phone won't charge anymore. Connect to PC via USB also won't detect. Suspect charging port went kaput. Already order replacement parts on Lazada. I hope it will fix the problem. I don't have voltmeter to confirm what went broken but i appreciate any thought from you guys.
*
Could be due to charger problem. I faced this problem with my wife car charger. It sort of fried (no longer charging) her J7 prime and my mi note 2 (so I tought). That is why i bought note 3 urgently, and her J7 got repair under warranty. To my surprise my mi note 2 no problem after i took out battery and left it for few days.

Once fried already, no cable or charge can help. What i mean the charger fried the phone. Hence in future get better quality charger and cables.

Just successfully flash to Android 8.0.0 using Nitrogen os 2 Rom.

So clean, and it feel so smooth without all the apps. Even Youtube and Google Photo need to be installed.

im still on Nitrogen stable build
the Android 8 is buggy and users reporting stability issues..
so im waiting for the stable version  icon_idea.gif

So far so good (touch wood), and the GPS locking is working good. Only face one time gps failed. (maybe is the Custom ROM issue), after that most of the gps lock almost instant, and all apps are so much smoother. Can even log gps like 10 feet covered.

I don't have the "silent" function not sure is the Rom build issue or Oreo design.

i dont wait 5-10minutes. Just reboot the phone will solve the problem.

I also read it happens to note 4, and some switch camps to A1 and is good gps locking.

MIUI so bloated, nitrogen is so much faster and smooth too.

Guys i wanna ask for this redmi note 3 when exiting some apps my screen goes grey and "loading" message pops up. Is this normal or some issue with this phone?
My unit is standard btw.

MIUI really slow and buggy. I move on with custom os and launcher. No longer having the lag issue

This nitrogen os have extended my use of this phone. Was thinking to replace with A1 but now I can still live with it, gps not 100% fix, but can lock most of the time (at most wait few mins). Speed so much better, the feeling of driving a van with full load (MIUI) than no load (nitrogen)
