Redmi note 3 on the left, Note 5 on the right.

I know, picture sucks. I would suggest checking out a demo unit and seeing it (color saturation loss on note 5) for yourself.
*
im confused, this is obviously not washed out.
as u said it is saturated lost.
my understanding of washed out is font blurred and not clear...

mayb xm is using different screen... eg
Samsung Amoled tend to be oversaturate... near hdr color
while Apple IPS is more near to natural color

Why so fast saying its a lemon unit? Many times happened in my previous phone too. 🤔

Or did your screen protector cover proximity sensor?
*
proximity sensor working fine,
the screen protector indeed cover the sensor, but do not block it.
coz they hv hole for it...

ya cp+ very hard to stick and part of the reason bcoz of this oso

Mine is with the ROM out of the box.

Anyway found out that we can check MY set using this site
http://ecomm.sirim.my/SirimEnquiry/search_IMEI.aspx

Also in about phone - verification, we should have MCMC logo there

Based on these 2, guess mine is MY set.

rn5 camera hv bigger sensor,
of coz it is better...

the oni prob with the rn5 camera is... it being underutilized.
blame the engineer didn't hv the pro experty in optical/imaging field.

image tuning algorithm is harder than a better camera hw

my 2cents

I rarely open facebook.. although the app still there... WhatsApp is the major consumption of space... taking about 2.5gb... sweat.gif

I think i'll wait until official price of zenfone announced tomorrow... and see how it goes from there.

i also rarely use fb, but the apps is the biggest processor and battery killer

Its not that the OS works 'better' without sdcard support. The problem is that manufacturers for premium models don't want their users to use sdcards since  sdcards more likely to fail or sometimes  experience slow speed and it would make their phones look bad through no fault of their own especially if poor quality sdcards are used. Samsung reverted back to hybrid slots after the S6 but disallowed adoptable storage as a compromise between user feedback and reliability.

The Mi 6x is slim phone and has less space than the Redmi for an sdcards and I think the Mi phones hasn't some with dedicated sdcard slot for the reason I mentioned above.
*
nope... alot of mid-high end device re-implement the sdcard slot
some of them no more hybrid

and i dont think faulty sdcard is the problem,
they said they wan to reduce the hardware space...
so they can make the phone slimmer

another thing is sdcard consume power... no good for battery
part of the reason no more "move to sd" feature
