guys, im eyeing this R5Pro and RN8Pro.
from your experience, how does ColorOS compare to MIUI? Im using RN3Pro currently. felt MIUI clogged storage easily with whatsapp and whatsapp backup stuff.

does R5Pro heat up with 2hours and more gaming?

Hi, I used miui years ago, and I just got a realme 3 pro with coloros 6. I would say I like the is quite well. Haven't yet saw any advertisement, which is quite a lot in miui. Not sure how's miui nowadays. Just started using coloros for few days, not deep into it as I still using my iPhone as main phone, where this realme 3 pro as my entertainment machine.

saw on youtube they said after new update, the market place show ads on ColorOS.
MIUI also got ad that can be turned off, but the clogging really worries me. whatsapp app got data files 2GB. and after a week, another 2GB. seems like the backup but the previous backup not deleted, im not sure

so you're not missing the MIUI?  brows.gif

I don’t realise the ads on the market place. Wait me back home only check on that. Travelling at the moment only bring main phone.
The Whatsapp thing I not sure. not using that on my entertainment devices. Only on main phone.

Missing MIUI? Hmm. I still own a Mi Pad 4 which runs MIUI. And before this playing with EMUI. Guess that I am not kind of person who are loyal to any OS as I just installed Nova launcher on all devices and make them operate similar. Of course here and there some differences due to the UI itself.

I believe you won’t be wrong getting either of the devices. Personally I would prefer snapdragons over others. What games do you play most? Maybe also consider the heating issue of the MTK

after another overnight research, I finally found a video that do the most plausible comparison.

and yeah, Mediatek does heating up a bit on another video, and that really concerns me. its a new phone, and heat easily although not overheat. in the long run 2-4 years, that heating will become more and more because of the thermal will run out over time n over usage. made up my mind to stick with snapdragon as my experience with RN3Pro 2016-2019, it is actually a dependable chipset

thanks for your thoughts, hopefully one day Im able to afford two devices at the same time, one Iphone and one android. I left the iOS train after my days of Iphone3gs and Iphone5. I might be back because the efficiency of iOS. but my bank balance wont allow me for the time being lol

The iOS devices now need some deep pocket to afford. Not to say that othe flagships are cheap, but mid-range/budget devices now are doing very good. I still using old iPhone 8 as I am using find my friends feature for me and my wife.

I do watch some reviewers mentioned and tested the thermal throttling of the redmi note 8 pro. Forgotten where already. Maybe a big deal for gamers. I think the processor is capable, but the cooling need improvement

Agree with huawei/oppo/vivo... but xiaomi has some good feature sets / alternatives realme don't have...

And outgoing realme 3pro 4/64 at RM599 offer price is a steal

Indeed Xiaomi having some nice ohinr. And some great features such as it blaster and using type c down until redmi 8.

And I bought a realme 3pro 4/64 at 599 as my entertainment machine. I am quite satisfy with that

Thanks. I'll skip then. Thought of buying the 3/32 version, only RM499.

i would say depends.
what you use the phone for mainly?
if lets say you watch a lot of videos, i don't think you will be having much issues, unless most of your videos are 1080p and above.
i tested the realme 5 3+32gb from 11.11 for my father in law, and i don't feel much issues. maybe i dont read too much on the phone.
yes, can realise some pixel here and there compare to my iphone 8 plus or other fhd+ smartphone. again, depends on your usage.
if read a lot, better go for fhd, else, it just do well for entertainment - movies, games, music - massive battery life
