need advise

1. note 4 vs note 4x, which one to choose, why ?
2. local vs imported, what the secret different etc, the best is ?

thanks
*
1. 4X for INSANE battery life. 4 for better speed but the 4 is BAD at gaming due to heating issue
2. Local if you dont want to deal with warranty headache/issue. The import ones may have unsupported 4G BANDs thats will MAY cause you to not get 4G/LTE

Hey ladies and gentlemen,

Is there a split screen function for redmi note 4? As i was using the other day, while i was scrolling FB, there is a whatsapp message coming in, strangely enough, the message open at the bottom just like a split screen funtion. On top half screen is FB, second half screen is the whatsapp message, i didn't screen capture it, just swipe the two screen away. But until now i can't find any option to enable split screen on the phone, anyone has any idea ??
*
Xiaomi phone and ROMS do not have a split screen. It will come with newer ROM MIUI9 maybe.

I will just skip this unit as cant find any good reason for me to upgrade from rn3 . Unless rn4 year end come with similar offer for rm499 like last year end then yes I will grab one
*
The ONLY good reason would be better battery life and getting new ROM from Xiaomi (and maybe better design)

Others, RN3 is better

want to ask..which variant of redmi note 4x to get...different between global and malaysia set .and lowest price i can get. dont mind waiting..not urgent

The Malaysian set works with local LTE bands

the import ones can be random;

The import ones from INDIA (called Redmi Note 4 in India) dont support Malaysia LTE. Missing Band 40

The import ones from CHINA and HONG KONG (called Redmi Note 4X in China and Hong Kong) support Malaysia LTE

third party theme is support in miui?

that theme he usingis from the official xiaomi theme store.

3rd party theme you will need to root and use xposed. its working for me (with xposed)

if you use redmi note 4 snapdragon and using latest nougat miui rom then no xposed and no 3rd party theme.

Wanna ask, are the casing and screen protectors for Redmi Note4x compatible with RN4 the Snapdragon version? Wanna buy from taobao and I see they are all for RN4x.

The Redmi Note 4X is the same as redmi note 4 snapdragon

the problem is just recently xiaomi bodo got release a new Redmi Note 4 MTK and Name it Redmi Note 4X too but the body is same as Redmi Note 4X/Snapdragon

I play dead trigger 2 and asphalt 8 also doesnt lag.. fully satisfy plus long battery life..
the only downside is no fast charging and camera so-so but still worth what i paid for
*
Very true. For the price, there is NO/ZERO comparison. You don't get a 5.5 inch phone with good gaming/thermal/everyday performance at rm700 (3/32GB) + RM850 (4/64GB). The only comparison would be other Xiaomi phones with sd625.

The best part is this phone also has VERY GOOD 3rd party ROM support. It's like a poor man's one plus 3 (even the op3 camera sucks a bit too).

So happy with my purchase.

Hello Master & Sifu

Tempting to buy - Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 5.5" (Gold) 4GB/64GB

This model good/awesome ? Please share pro & con.
Currently mt phone is Mi3. Its time to taste new model.

Thank you.
*
1st of all, performance will be on par with mi3 maybe a bit worse but you get better battery life. I would personally suggest you to wait maybe like 1 - 2 more month to get a new xiaomi phone that could (COULD) use a better cpu SD660. When that time comes the cpu (SD660) will be very good and will have awesome battery like Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon.

If you feel like you need the phone now then buy it, but you will have to deal with

- mediocre camera in lowlight

- same/a bit worse performance than mi3 but GAMING is definitely better on Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon than MI3

but you get

- very good custom rom support

- very good battery life - 10-12 Hours screen on time after 1-2 days (mixed wifi and 4G/3G)

- very good thermal performance (phone does not get very warm when gaming)

- Cheap phone for the performance/battery

I just need to remind you that this is NOT A FLAGSHIP phone. The mi3 was a FLAGSHIP phone.

Don't get the Redmi Note 4 MTK because

- Horrible battery life - 5-7 hours Screen On Time after using phone for 15-20 hours

- BAD THERMAL PEROFRMANCE - Games lag after 5-10 minutes

Get the MTK for

- a bit better performance (WHEN NOT PLAYING GAMES)

- better build quality and material

I have used both and I hope my write up can help you

JUST FOR EXTRA INFO

Antutu Mi3 - 30-35k

Antutu RN4 Snapdragon - 60k

Antutu RN4 MTK 85k - 90k

Gaming is BAD on MTK

Gaming is GOOD on Snapdragon

Camera quality is about the same on both phone

CUSTOM ROM support is BETTER on Snapdragon 10/10

CUSTOM ROM support is the worst on MTK 2/10

Battery life on Snapdragon is two time better than MTK

Bro, what custom rom u using? Coz I saw xda, looks like still buggy coz no kernel source release yet.

1. Kernel source was released 3 weeks ago
2. Im using latest AoSP extended which is super stable (it got updated with latest kernel sources)
3. I think this rom is the most stable

Also this is rn4 snapdragon btw

Wow! Finally kernel source being released! Thanks for the info!

Btw, any issues u encountering? Like will affect daily usage one*

None so far. Maybe some lockscreen lag. Fix this by installing kernel audiotor and change cpu governer to ondemand. And maybe headphones amd speaker volume a bit low. I have a fix for low speaker headphones

Put this in system/etc (backup original file if you want to)

hi guys,

my current phone battery is bloating and I am currently station in a city where battery replacement service is almost non-existence

so I have shortlisted two phones for short term replacement

1. Mi 5
2. Redmi Note 4

should I choose recently launched RN4 or previous flagship?

So RN3 overall win RN4? Despite the 3GB Ram VS 4GB Ram.

Still struggling whether should i get mi5s 2nd hand or rn4
*
The redmi note 3 is faster but has about 30% less battery life

You decide performance + save money or battery life

Mi5 dun talk lah. Stupid battery life but again very fast.

To put into context

Mi5s 4 to 5 hour screen on time - best performance CPU - some heating issue - rm1xxx

Redmi note 3 6-8 screen on time - mid range cpu - get very warm when playing intense games - rm6xx for 3/32 (max spec btw)

Redmi note 4 8-12 screen on time - lower mid range - barely warm when playing intense games - rm8xx for 4/64

You decide

I would rather wait for Redmi Note 5 tbh because it will have redmi note 4 battery life and redmi note 3 (even better) performance
