Guys, I try to use USB OTG for this RN5 but somehow it didn't detect anything at all. Tried with pendrive and mouse both just didn't detect anything. Is my RN5 faulty?
*
I've no issue using usb otg. Using sandisk dual usb. It autodetects.

Can you provide the link to buy it? 😁

I bought this casing from aliexpress way before local sellers selling it. Nillkin Frost Casing. My suggestion is to get it from local sellers, faster. maybe slightly more expensive?

What about gps? Im having trouble with  my current Xiaomi phone redmi 5, gps always lost and need to switch to aeroplane mode to get it to work
*
GPS was alright when i first got the phone. Still lost GPS signal every now and then, could be due I'm using Umobile, the signal changes from 4G to H+ frequently.
But ever since using updated ROM and MIUI 10, my gps connectivity is very stable. Rarely lost signal, as i'm always using the same route on daily basis.

Mind to elaborate more on the camera lag issue? Is it when launching camera app? or when snapping a pic?

When looking for cases in AliExpress, what is the search term for this phone?  I type Redmi Note 5 but came out a lot for other models.  Redmi Note 5 Pro it the same physically, right?

Ok, if you've launch the camera app and then you leave it at background and run other apps, when u switch back to camera app it will lag, sometimes can't function, but after I restart the app then no problem.

And also after update to latest OTA update the headsets enhancement feature always crash, so when u plugged in the headset the playback got noise
*
No matter how many apps i open and leave it at background, launching the camera app no lag. flex.gif

Just got myself the 3gb version from physical Mi Store.

This is my first ever Mi phone in my life.

First impression, I am impressed.

Coming from S7 edge, for this price, this is hands down the best value for money phone you can get at this price range.

From my first few hours of setting up, I love MIUI (though i changed to Nova launcher), superb battery life, great screen, and good camera.

And I don't think this will be my last Mi device.

Xiaomi, you just got yourself a new fan.
*
Xiaomi definitely produces bang for buck phones. I've been using this 6gb+64Gb version for sometime, very satisfied with it. But i'm eyeing on Mi 8. brows.gif

Are the dimensions the same?  So when we look for casings and SPs online, can we use Redmi Note 5 Pro model?

Exactly the same.

Honestly I prefer Chinese ROM than Global ROM but too bad I can't read Chinese since most of the native Apps are still in Chinese even we set English as system language. Chinese ROM has more features, you will know what are the differences once you flashed to Global ROM. Haha.
*
Yeaps, in some way Chinese ROM is better. I also cant read chinese. Miui10 china rom got Xiao AI and a smart alarm ringtone that has a nice tune and voice to tell wake you up and tell you the time.

Does it multitask well? As in running a few heavy games,  waze/Google map, Apple music, Reddit, browser without any lag while switching and reloading

That's my only concern with 636
*
So far it multitask really well. The only really heavy game i've tried is Ark Survival Evolved Mobile. Switching no issue so far. i'm on 6gb ram version.

Just want to ask, does anybody know how much the cost to repair/replace cracked screen of this phone? (cracked at outer screen only. The touch function and the display on the screen are working just fine). Been using this phone just merely 11 days before this unwanted xcident happened (dropped out from my pocket at around knee height...yup u read it right - just KNEE height [around 55-58 cm from the ground]...poor screen built quality from Xiaomi for this phone???  doh.gif  )
My phone was wearing the provided ultra-slim tpu case and no screen protector applied yet at that time  sweat.gif  sad.gif
*
Really unfortunate. I recall an incident my phone dropped from 1m high. With hard casing and screen protector. No issues.
