I did not use reminders note 3 pro but what do u you lack on this phone. Le 2 max has nut 3.5 mm audio jack, no SD card slot. In my opinion it would be only cpu upgrade.
If I help you please express it.

The Le Max 2 has more RAM, a much faster SoC, better camera, better display. For $250 it's a no brainer, and it's gonna be a massive upgrade over the Redmi Note 3 Pro.

Plus quickcharge 3.0, faster UFS2.0 storage and faster DDR4 RAM. Arguably better build too.
im think about getting the 6gb model when it drops below $$300

Honestly don't think the extra RAM will make any difference. Never come close to not having enough RAM with 4GB. But it's worth the extra spend just to get 64GB storage instead of 32GB.
People keep talking about the lack of 3.5 mm. The phone comes with a USB-C to 3.5mm adapter and it outputs great sound, so what is the issue?

Fully agreed. 4GB will be enough even after 1 year from now, but 32GB will not be if you store videos/music on the phone. 4GB/64GB is the best option in my opinion, regardless of brand/phone.
And if you are willing to wait enough, maybe you can get Pro3 for this amount. The 0.2" for the smaller screen make it much easier to handle (I've had 1s before Le Max2), the build quality seems better as per the reviews and the gold (closer to true gold) color is easier to get, same as the rose gold for the Le Max2. When I bought it (a month after release), the grey option was quite hard to find, and a few months later, the price dropped to ~250$ while I've paid 400$ for it.
I upgraded from Redmi Note 3 Pro to Le Max 2. I agree with most of what others wrote.
Le Max 2 is such a high quality device. Got 4Gb Ram version and am so happy with my decision. Using CN stock rom and it works so good that I don't have any intention to flash custom Roms or enabling root access. It's that good of a device for my needs. In all aspects and functions I use daily.
Hope I helped. Cheers
I would not swap. Simply because of software. I am really angry at myself for jumping the gun on this phone really early without knowing how the software will be like. the official firmware lacks and all custom firmware doesnt support all of the nice hardware the phone has.
If I could decide today, I would not buy it again.
Would like to know what the issues are that people have with the eui software. Almost every reviewer seems to slate it without giving any concrete examples of what they find so wrong with it other than "There's no app drawer" or "It has a useless live TV button" or "The quick settings have been moved to the multitasking tray at the bottom". Well, the first two are just related to the stock launcher. If you don't like that, it takes about three seconds to install a launcher more to your liking. Not an issue worth complaining about. As for the quick settings being in a different place, frankly who gives a damn. It takes a day or two to get used to and then you can get on with using it pretty much exactly the same as ever.
I also don't understand why people complain. The software is mature an everything works stable every day of use 24/7.
I respect those that prefer different ROMs and yet coming from other phones - Nubia z7 mini, Redmi Note 3 Pro - I got tired of flashing, modding and meddling with my phone.
As it is right now - LeMax 2 is the best phone for the money. All those worldwide working band frequencies, amazing display, ultra fast storage, memory and CPU/GPU, stellar sound quality and two satisfactory cameras.
If you want to throw money for a device that will perform mostly the same functions for more money - then go away and do it. This is a Smartphone and its primary function is to perform phonecalls so every other function you get should be considered a bonus.
Buy more expensive brands and pay for their marketing campaigns included in the price. All top brand phones cost around 160 USD to mass produce. Why pay more for a thing that will become "old" in 6 months or less?
I bought it to do phonecalls and the hardware and software performance is excellent. No letdowns whatsoever.
Need a camera - buy a dedicated one, need better software - build your own ROM etc.
OP asked if this would be a good trade from a lower tier device and it definitely would be a step up in every way.
I know as I sold RMN3 Pro to get Le X2.
Guys Currently I am using SAMSUNG GALAXY S7 and planning to buy this device during this BBD for 15k.
As it's been more than a year since POCO F1 was launched, and if I will buy this phone or any other then I am gonna use it for at least 2yrs minimum.
I am very much confused, have so much questions in mind..
1) Will it go that long(2yrs)?
2) Is it worth to buy now?
3) Do you feel the need of an ultra wide lens as of now it's the current trend in market?
4) Does it show screen bleeding or ghost touches?
5) Switching from an amoled to a lcd panel will be bad experience? How is the screen quality?
6) LAST, still there is no news of POCO F2, is it good to buy F1 now or wait for another POCO device with a hope of that it will release soon?
Why I am asking these que. Because I am totally confused right now, Guys please help me out.
Yes ,Redmi K20 pro is another option but it's out of my budget even after price the will get slashed to 25k during BBD.
I'm buying it on big billion days sale this sep
poco is old but It's cutting edge competitive because of the aggressive prize cuts, and whatever phone you gonna purchase now for the 15K would be no match of snapdragon 845, it's still the second-best processor for android out there, also It have ultrafast internal memory UFS 2.1 and you can't go wrong with 6 gb of ram so it's pretty future proof, and you know for what I'm buying this in 2019 even after 1 year of its release, the camera! yes, there is 64 MP camera under this range but I've seen semple up close and I'm getting poco.
Well, the developer who made POCO F1 is retired, no much update now, only if you flash another rom...
so the best way is K20 or 9T, with them you have Snapdragon 855, poco have 845.
I have poco, and I like it and I will no buy another for at least 1 year more, until I broke it...
MIUI 11 will come later, but I don't know if MIUI will work to upgrade android from Pie to Q.
If you like flashing ROMs , testing, etc, its no problem for you.
But.....If it were you (Its me! I like having phone with best processor with lower price xD) , I was going to buy K20 or 9T pro (better that Oneplus 7 about specifications and lower price) because poco have 1 year and all what above user (Ramipro) said..
But if you don't use to play so much like...PUBG with max configs, and found the lower price, its good for daily usage ofc
Bought the POCO F1 since the date released and still don't have intent to change the phone yet. The update is lesser for now since the global beta is shut down but still quite active. I have no problem using it to play Mobile Legend China with Med-high spec. The camera itself is actually not bad, if you are not a professional camera person. For me, there are no screen bleeding nor ghost touches. For the screen well, amoled screen is always good but so I guess this is the cost here (not that I say POCO is bad, just amoled screen is gooood).
Well anyway, the spec of POCO F1 is still quite good for now so if you don't mind of old phone, go straightly buy it. Otherwise I'll just wait POCO F2 or buy newer phone.

This was the only reason I was considering this device, as it has much better development community than one plus devices has right now.
Also you are right about K20pro, it's also the value for money for sd855 because of its a new chipset and better than oneplus 7..
well thank you bro for suggestion, I keep that circumstances in my mind while buying..
I had an F1 and sold it and got the Mi9T. I didn't like the 9T's under display fingerprint sensor (the position and speed of it; I like the tactile feel of a physical button). I sold the 9T and got a used Galaxy S9+. The battery life was terrible. I'm not sure if it was software related or if the battery was too old. However, I returned it, and I've just ordered a new F1. I plan to flash it with ResurrectionRemix or PixelExperience. It's the best phone I've owned (I've owned a lot), and I don't care if it's over a year old.

Wow thats a lot of experience you had with your devices...
Now I am confident about F1, I will buy that, as I will use custom roms only.. But one thing I want to ask that does it have screen bleeding issue when you had your previous F1? My friends who bought have that issue
EDIT-you don't need to answer that, I got it from Caferatte89..

Okay, that means the screen bleeding issue was there only in the first batch when it was released.
I bought the Poco F1 after 3 months it was released and using it for a year and i am very happy with it. Never had touch problems or screen bleeding, i am a casual user, i take photos with google camera and the results are amazing, the only games i play are Vainglory and Auto Chess on 60 fps high settings and everything is buttery smooth. A friend of mine found a deal at a local store here in Romania for 190 euro which i think is a fantastic deal. The battery life is great, i usually get 4-5 h of screen on time and 2 days of usage, i think with Pixel Experience or LOS you can get better battery life but i like MIUI built in features so i am using the latest MIUI 10 with Android 9. Android 10 with MIUI 11 is planned this year. I attached some photos of my holiday so you can see how good the camera is https://drive.google.com/open?id=14g6V9zwMvkKYrV9lHB0Vu8nqdf9vWkvu
Its is a good phone but screen is not that great you gonna notice this more since you were using s7. There is ghost touch problem many people are facing it but performance is good, camera is good enough for the price battery life is great i get 8-9 hrs of screen on time regularly also development is good lots of custom ROMs stuff. So it really depends on your priorities do you really need this performance.
If not there are plenty of other phones with better screen and camera's. Phone with snapdragon 7 series will good enough

Daammmnnnnnn all those clicks were soo good, that it was like clicked from a high end phone. Gcam really did the great job in preserving details in the clicks when compared to stock....Well that's a peace of mind about camera department....
But still one thing I wanna ask ,do you feel the need of an ultra wide lens?

The camera has a wider lens than the competition, i compared it to Mate 20 Pro main camera and Poco camera is wider. Also the difference between the 2 phones are not that big, Poco with GCam is almost the same as the Mate even in night mode. I impressed allot of people with the photos i took, most of the people thought it was a high end smartphone like iPhone, Samsung, Huawei.

Actually I was considering this phone because of highly active development community only, it has lots of custom roms, tweaks, mods etc etc...
I was only confused because last time I bought brand new S7 ,it was one & half yr already old after the launch. In 2017 at that time it doesn't really bothered me because change of trend in smartphone market was not that really fast as of now, but still after some time(5mnths) I felt, at least I should gone for a device which has highly active development because S7 always had a problem either custom rom is not compatible with gcam or if it's compatible then quality of the photo is f**ked up.
But now days smartphone trends has paced up so fast that even after 6months it seems like you are out of the time.
Yaa I know, once you are with the device with such a support of development you are never gonna worry about this thing.
Well the main thing is that, Xiaomi has never spoken a word about Poco, that it is dead even after Jai Mani(head of product) has left the POCO brand.
It's the main point of my confusion, if I buy today F1 and company launches another POCO, then I would regret that I should wait at that time. But if Poco lineup is dead and I bought some other device,then again I would have regret that I left F1, which already has so much development.....
Another thing also confuse me, K20pro is just the appropriate upgrade and a successor to F1, seems like if another poco was to be launched, it was this K20pro. Then I should go for k20pro, but on k20pro I don't like that in-display fingerprint & motorised camera...
This whole sh*t thoughts has put me in a great confusion right now... should I consider F1 or not?

If you have budget around 15k i would suggest just go for it. There is no competition for this price range. I dont there will be poco f2 at this point I think they killed poco for k series. This phone has really good development as there are already Android Q ROMs available at this moment.
I have my Poco for almost one year and I can say that is really good for me.
- Battery is decent to great but it charges from 0 to 100% in almost 2h (I'm ok with that though);
- camera, as it was said, with GCAM, takes nice shots;
- it is planned to get Android 10 with MIUI 11 as well and I think that the community will support it afterwards;
- I really like the face unlock function with IR, works perfect almost every time (in strong light I encountered some delays);
- Fingerprint sensor is really fast and a good location, but somehow, because I got used to the face unlock, I barely use it;
- no overheating;
- I'm using as well MIUI 10 (with franko kernel) cause I like more the face unlock process on it, also the full screen navigation gestures;
- My device has the screen bleeding issue in the bottom side (I got used to it immediately) and had touchscreen issues but got better through the updates (I think it still lags behind other phones, usually in fast scrolling);
- It would've been great to have NFC for mobile payments;
- the design it's quite old with big notch and big chin;
If you mean that you will find it for 15k INR, I think it's worth it
What about ghost touch in Indian version of poco f1

Just buy POCO or give ₹2K extra and buy Asus Zenfone 5Z it's also good with premium design, HiRes earphones in the box. I am buying POCO F1 in the sale from Amazon. If you're buying POCO F1 then buy it from Amazon, because it is ₹1K cheaper in Amazon. ₹15K for 6+128

Hi XDA!
Please excuse me if I haven't chosen the optimal forum to post this question on XDA. I'm happy for an admin to move it if there is a better place for it.
I'm wondering what the best smartphone is for under $200 in 2020? My requirements are:
* Decent camera
* MicroSD slot
* Headphone jack
* Unlockable bootloader
* Min 4 GB RAM
I would prefer a smaller phone but it seems phones under 6" are rare these days. It'd also ideally have a removable battery but I realise that is another feature missing from nearly all modern phones.
The best phone I've found so far for my budget that meets my requirements is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 8. Might there be something better out there at a similar price point?
I post on other forums including phone forums and everyone who has bought a Xiaomi love them

I've spent 2 days looking now and I haven't found anything to seriously compete with the Redmi Note8 on features vs price. The nearest seems to be the Moto G8 plus but it costs ~50% more.

I've edited my first posts requirements list to say I want at least 4 GB RAM.
The only thing I'm not seen keen on with the note 8 is the notch. Why do phone manufacturers have to copy everything Apple does? At least it has a headphone jack and MicroSD slot so its not full-on Apple cloning.

I never use Stock launchers so that's not shouldn't be an issue. A lot of people like Nova Launcher but I still use my old Holo Launcher on Android Pie and Android 10(Q).

It looks like it might be worth spending the extra £50 to get the Redmi Note 8 Pro for the extra 2 GB RAM.
I Am Looking for Same under $500. like Samsung will fine for me.
Smartphone below $200
Check out Infinix Note 7, releasing soon, you get decent specs for your money. 6.95 inch screen, 64GB 4GB RAM, Quad cameras, microSDXC slot, headphone jack, Fingerprint sensor, 5000mAh battery.
I'm a Pocophone F1 user since launch, it was a so hyped phone and I don't regret the purchase. Poco as a concept was great at all, a "flagship killer" phone with a top processor such as the Snapdragon 845, outstanding battery and amazing performance for a small price. The only flaw IMO is the screen: a non AMOLED screen with a huge notch on it (and touch issues who can be fixed with a custom kernel), but nothing else.
But with Poco F1 meeting it's EOL, and my phone having battery and screen issues, I think it's time to think about getting a new phone. So, what options do you recommend? The only thing I want is performance and good audio (3,5 jack with a good DAC), and a good screen. I don't care much about cameras.
Thanks in advance, and sorry if this don't belong here.
Dude I'm in the same exact boat. I'm looking at a Poco X3. it's not really about what you can afford it's about why you should afford it and The Sweet spot money wise seems to be there for my needs. I'll trade you a question for a question though do you have any idea about how to get the Poco F1 to see things larger than 256 GB and it's micro SD card without forgetting the data cuz it has a tendency to do afterwards I learned that the hard way randomly small little files will continue to just not exist anymore... And I tried it with several different brands of 512 GB micro SD cards and I didn't just grab cheap ones off of the random mail order. And yes I did try to format them in different file systems however that wasn't as well liked by the phone
Hi guys, I've had the Poco F1 since it came on the market and I'm now thinking of buying something newer.
For me there are not many requirements, but they are still very difficult to find in a device.
1. a good camera
2. micro SD
I don't need an AMOLED display or the latest processor.
Good cameras are almost only found in the Higend devices.
But they usually don't have a micro SD and are much too expensive.
I've already read some reviews of the Poco X3, but I'm not sure how good the camera actually is compared to the Poco F1. I was always very satisfied with the camera of the Poco F1 and therefore my new device should definitely not have a worse camera.
Well in all honesty I would advise buying a Xiaomi 10T Lite if possible, it's in that price range kinda, the camera is good (from what I heard, haven't seen for myself). With it you also get a 120hz screen, so it is an upgrade in a way. Its your choice in the end so do as you wish.

So I am considering getting a Oneplus Nord 2 which I figured just came out this month, right?
I myself have a 7T 128Gb which I really love. Only thing is its head heavyness due to the camera.
My wife just wants a better cam than her Huawei P90 lite and more storage space. Other than that I think she is not such a nerd like me
Anyways: I have been shocked about the fact that there are som many new Oneplus phones out there these days! And reading through all the specs man, I gotta tell you it kills me. It just doesn't tell my anything.
So my question would be: Is the Nord 2 a great buy for 399 € if my wife needs a very nice cam and lots of space? She would also need a safe case, she drops her phones A LOT!
I read some beef here about Oneplus quality and all...
Thanks for your thoughts!
One plus nord 2 came out in july last year...
And if you consider buying it: just... just don't. It's full of bugs and stock camera sucks big time. You might get better results with gcam but still... unacceptable.
Performance and battery life is good though...

My wife just wants a better cam than her Huawei P90 lite and more storage space. Other than that I think she is not such a nerd like me
Anyways: I have been shocked about the fact that there are som many new Oneplus phones out there these days! And reading through all the specs man, I gotta tell you it kills me. It just doesn't tell my anything.
So my question would be: Is the Nord 2 a great buy for 399 € if my wife needs a very nice cam and lots of space? She would also need a safe case, she drops her phones A LOT!
I read some beef here about Oneplus quality and all...
Thanks for your thoughts!

Unless you really consider the price aspect, then yes, the Nord 2 can be a nice choice, but you might have to work on it a little to install a custom ROM and fine tune a few things up before being able to get the best of it.
One the other hand, I might suggest getting a OnePlus 9 Pro (its price is decreasing quite often since the OnePlus 10 Pro release) if you want a really nice camera setup and overall specs.
And if you want to split the pear in half, maybe considering a OnePlus Nord 2T 5G in its 12Go RAM/256Go ROM configuration could be the best affordable choice (529€, else, the base storage/RAM capacity is at 429€, but you'll get a better camera setup than the Nord 2).
