I find Redmi3's audio really good maybe just becouse i come from an old xperia S

On redmi 3 speaker are not so good, but audio output is good.

Redmi for battery life, other than that, P7 is superior in everything else you've said.

Had a P7, and now a Redmi 3 pro. For me there is no comparison, Redmi 3 pro is better in quite all aspects, except perhaps the screen resolution. P7 was quite slow, battery life was poor, update is a real pain,...

Xiaomi probably will have software support longer.

Correct. I forgot XDA member loves upgrade. P7 is old anyway, and for chinese market nothing beats Xiaomi when it comes to long software support.

Redmi 3 vs Honor 5x I hesitate??

Hi there,
Can you help me choosing between these 2?
Will the Redmi 3 get Marshmallow update?
Thanks in advance
Wrong forum, you should compare Honor5x to Redmi Note 2/3 - but anyway ... Redmi 3 wins with battery, performance, OS (because MIUI > EMUI), and price. Honor 5x have better camera and fingerprint reader.

Huawei doesn't have any real support. That is why I have putted aside almost new P7 and bought Redmi3

Huawei and honor are different.
Honor is run separate from its parent company. Honor 7 is getting marshmallow shortly, as is the 6. I've no concern on software updates for the 5x.
Miui compared to emui will be a personal choice.
Tbh stick a launcher like nova etc on the honor and it'll be close to stock android which Miui never will be.

The snapdragon 616 is great? What is the avg Antutu Score?
And 2 days battery life is possible?

I will not try to convince you into buying anything. I'm satisfied with Redmi 3 and it suits my needs, only camera could be better for night photos. As for Snapdragon 616, it is octa core processor and it does what it should do. In single core operations it is not very fast, but in multi core task it is good. Antutu is 35K, but who cares? Battery is strongest side of this phone, for my habits of use it lasts 3 days and 10 hours of SOT (screen on time) with data and wifi always on.

Meizu has better build quality. RedMi has better hardware.
Just use for phone for browsing, calling, sms etc -> Go for M3 Note
You use your phone for more heavy tasks or find performance important -> RedMi Note 3
I think, M3 Note is better than Redmi 3 Note because of design. But Redmi 4 Note with Qualcomm is better.

Camera vs redmi note 2

Hello. I currently have redmi note 2 and I want to sell it to buy redmi note 3 SD. But I heard so many bad things about it's camera. I want to know if its quality is worse than redmi note 2. And if yes, how much.
Thanks.
Between Rn3 and Redmi 2 (not note), I feel Redmi 2 camera is better.

Honest opinion bro..
Dont buy, because redmi note 2 is also a good device. ( same camera result and day to day activities).
If you want to go for higher model (20000rs) ,then its good to sell.
But its not wise choice to change RN2 to RN3.
Better you wait more 6 months, and you will have many new options.
Take note that I love RN3, but i gave my opinion as you asked.
Thanks for answers. I'm just sick of mediatek! That's why I wanted to buy RN3 but I might wait...
Hey bro you are not right.redmi note 3 have 16 megapixel back camera while redmi note 2 have only 8 megapixel rear camera so the difference is that redmi note 3 camera quality is awesome than redmi note 2 and yaa also RN3 has finger print sensor ,it is slim,metal body and man believe man it's 4000mah battery life is amazing.
I made the same upgrade you want to do: redmi note 2 since September 2015... Redmi note 3 Snapdragon since March 2016.
My answer to you is a question: are you satisfied with Redmi Note 2 battery life?
If yes, then don't sell your phone. The upgrade is not in the camera department.
(imho both cameras are disappointing, same level... very low level... like a "good" 8 Megapixel can beat either Redmi Note 2 and RN3 SD)
If you want more battery life, then go buy the Redmi Note 3 Pro. The upgrade is incredible.
Same use (almost all 3G, 5% of the time in Wifi) with Note 2 It was very hard to reach 4 hours of SOT. With RN3 Pro I get 8 hours very easy, and sometimes even 9-10 hours of SOT.
So, no: for the camera performance it's not worth it. But for the rest, it is.
tq for those review, yep i think want to upgrade reno2 to reno3pro,
Reason want buy reno3pro 1st : battery life so tired, 2nd : feel mediatek version not getting marshmallow, looks like getting old android later, miui8 = 5.0.1 lolipop? huh..
3rd : fingerprint, 4th : Battery 4000Mah, 5th : looks like in cm got cm13 (marshmallow, With it not in reno2)
I wanted to upgrade because of
1. Battery
2. Metal body
3. Fingerprint scanner
4. Newer Android version and more custom roms
5. Mediatek cpu and powervr gpu had some compatibility issues.
If the camera is same level, so I'm OK with it. Thanks for replies.
here is a picture I took on the kenzo

Honestly I believe RN3pro camera is better. I have seen people complain about camera quality. If you really want good camera performance, use those camera apps that provides lots of manual settings. The default auto values in stock camera app are just meant for basic tasks. So for better picture quality, all you need to do is adjust the setting as per the surrounding. Set desired exposure levels, brightness, sharpness and so on...
Believe me, you will see a dramatic change in your photography.
In Well Lit conditions Camera Quality is great, Low light it struggles, RN3 uses Samsung s5k3p3 Image sensor which is good definitely better camera than Note 2,some pics took by me..

Redmi Note 3 Pro vs OnePlus 2

Would you recommend the Redmi Note 3 Pro over the Oneplus 2 if both are going for the same price right now?
Redmi note 3 pro was better, you will get twice update a week with global dev rom.

For Cam one plus 2 i think ....
oneplus 2 has no sd card option and costs 2 times more then redmi note 3 pro... so get a redmi note 3 pro.
160€ compared to 319€ for op2... get a redmi...
i come from an oneplus x and i am totally happy. only thing i miss is oled display

It depends on what you're looking for.
If for good camera, then probably one+2,if for good battery life then redmi.
There are many other thing s you have to consider, like type of display, system, sdcard slot etc. So it's really up to your personal preference.

nope not for me because i have a 128 gb sd card so the op2 died for me directly as choice. XD
but if you care about gaming etc, get a op2.
i use my phone for internet and media stuff, so i dont need a good gpu. i am actually realy surprised abeit my redmi note 3 pro. if you want a good costum rom support, get one with the snapdragon (qualcom) processor.
unlock bootloader with official tool like op... worked all like charm, i am happy camera is also fine. i mean... i dont expect an dlsr but camera is pretty fine for a phone.
if your phone goes broken, you have the same ****ty china support by both sides.
additional, miui is kind of nice and you get one dev update per week.
by op you can wait much longer.
but i use aicp rom, so also no matter for me.
so all together: you get a good device if you want updates and sd cards.
if you prefer more a better camera and more performance, get a op2.
but honestly... i dont pay much attention on performance but i am a power user and my xiaomi is working like charm in pro edition with 3gb ram.
the OP2 has less performance !

How? The 810 soc is very powerful and though it had it's share of overheating, looks like guys on the OP2 forums fixed that with a ton of kernel tweaks. i'm seeing antutu scores of between 90 - 103 on their cm14 rom's and let's not even get started on the GPU...Point is the 810 is very still a flagship soc. Snapdragon 821>820>810>>652>650...
Oh no I don't think, In benchmark s810 better than 650 yes, but in reality.... the a72 are fastest same if they are only 2 than the "old gen" cores of S810...
The GPU isn't stable a long time, when the GPU of 650 is perfectly stable ... looks manhattan longterm performance (30minutes) same if in theory 510 = 418 or 420 in practical it's a stable GPU so really better than us and same than 810, maybe one 810 could be better it's the nexus 6p... but OP2 really not ...

which redmi should I buy?

I want to buy a new phone, I like xiaomi, I don't know which to buy, Redmi note 4 snapdragon, Redmi note 4 mtk, Redmi note 3 pro or Redmi 4 prime?? I would use it for regular apps(messenger, youtube, browsing) , some gaming (Hearthstone, clash royale, or anything), and for VR... I like modding, I like custom roms, but I want my phone to be futureproof, so, I want minimum nougat for it... I'm a music lover too, I love hard bass, and I want good headphone audio quality, I like slow mo camera, but I could live without it.. I'm not a selfie lover, so camera is not so important... Which would you choose??
If you want custom ROMs then Kenzo or Kate is your option.

So??
Edit:$#!T forgot that mediatek loves to keep its sourced closed so u are likely better off buying any xiaomi device with a snapdragon processor since it had the most development. Buy the redmi note 4 pro or the redmi note 3 pro. If u like big phones go for mix max.
