My Redmi Note 3 finally bit the dust after 3 years.

What's the best band for buck phone now?

Back when RN3 first released, it was the king of value, rm700 for near flagship specs at the time (during that year, many brands flagship phones also only had 3gb ram, 32 gb rom)

Not really urgent, but need it latest after CNY, so I can wait for upcoming releases and price drops if need be

Prefer 5.5" form factor, used 6" phone b4, too big can't use with one hand, can't fit inside pocket

If budget die die RM600, get MiA3.

If can topup a bit, get ex-flagship like Mix2s, Pocophone, mi9 and so.

Disappointed with xiaomi products. All their products incl phone, earphones, powerbank that I own all died already.

Overrated brand imo. Specs seem good for the price but build quality is shit

Hmm the newer Redmi Note Series seems like not much upgrade from my Redmi Note 3.

But this camera sensor is used in pretty much all mid-high end phones launched in the past 1.5 years. So I have some high expectations for it prior to getting it.

It’s cause MIUI is in control with the high brightness mode, thus AndroidONE don’t have it.

Let’s wait till next (or hopefully further future) version of AndroidONE and see if it will have high brightness mode integrated into it.

So this phone pretty much can't see shit under the sun?

It’s good, but don’t worth over RM700 I would say.

I bought mine AP for RM547.

Pixelation not really a major problem for me though as I’m used to the PPI of IP8 and viewing distance of >20cm.
