Hey... Got my Redmi 3 Pro last week, this is a fantastic device!
I read a lot about it before I bought it but there is one question left: does it support Qualcomms Quickcharge 2.0?
Read about it in another forum, they couldn't give an answer. Also there is a list made by Qualcomm about the devices that support Quickcharge, there are some Xiaomi devices but no Redmi.
Is there anyone out there who can say yes or no?
Thanks

Thank you... And how much faster is it? Can you tell me your charging time?

No.
So, yes and no like always.
Well, as far as I know, the thing is like that: the soc (snap 616) does support Qualcomm QuickCharge, but the device itself doesn't, because it isn't just about having a specific processor.. It requires also a certain level of quality in all the other components (and Redmi3, being a low end device, doesn't have it)
Redmi 3 only supports the "standard" 2A quick charge.. I have never tried checking the actual charging time.. I believe it is around 2,30 to 3 hours

What do you want? OF course it does not support! Just read about that phone before asking this question .... Do you really think it would have never been written? @volpe96 gave you a answer.

Thanks... The phones price tag is low end, the specs are midrange. When you look what devices Qualcomm Quickcharge 2.0 support, then the Redmi 3 Pro could also support it https://www.qualcomm.com/documents/quick-charge-device-list
Even the bigger brother the Redmi Note 3 supports it.
@MTK6589 If you don't want to answer then let it be. I'm no noob who buys a phone, crashes it and asks in different threads how to repair it. I read a lot about the Redmi 3 Pro, but that is the only thing that wasn't clear. You're very unfriendly in my opinion, don't know why!

I know the specs are midrange.. But the quality of the materials (probably) is not.. And i am talking about the USB connector, the battery, inner filaments, and so on.. Not every piece of metal is capable of tolerating a big current through it without being damaged

Could it upgrade to MiUi 9.0?
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 ...
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.

Ok so long story short, I'm looking at a new phone somewhere around 200 eur. The note 4x stands out to me as being good. However, I'm really confused about the different versions (CPU and stuff) and am wondering if anyone can help me out.
I've found these 2 phones. One has the Qualcomm CPU whilst the other seems to have the Mediatek helio. Which one is better/what are the key differences between them. Also, do they both ship with the Chinese MIUI or global? (sadly can't add links yet).
(I'm aware that this is sliiiightly off topic but is the note 4x the best Xiaomi phone under 200? What about the redmi 4x and others?...)
Thanks in advance, a noob who's way out of his league.
Edit: I'm stupid, both phones have the same CPU. My other questions still stand though.

YO,
Get the qualcomm snapdragon variant if you're into modding, tweaking.
Dunno about what version the device shops with, it's depends upon the regions too I guess as mine shipped with global stable (Indian variant of Redmi-note-4 (snapdragon)), you might get different version of miui installed on your device, I dunno much about MIUI version tho.
Yep, it's the best device under 200 atm.
Redmi 4X is also good one, but it has snapdragon 435 and it's better to get Redmi note 4.
hey guys when the global rom is installed is it normal for it to show up as a redmi note 4 not the 4x?
also if that is normal will it affect anything like apps working or OTA updates?

Just checked the advert. Qualcomm CPU, and it ships with global rom apparently. Granted, I'll probably be flashing some other rom.

The seller of the note 4x I'm buying from pointed out that exact thing. It's normal from what I know.
I don't think it affects apps and updates since under the skin, the 2 devices should be the near same.

Well, there are tons of Roms too choose from, meantime we're close to official LineageOS builds....
If you want customizations go for AEX / RR etc etc... Otherwise wait for the official LineageOS xD

Yep. All snapdragon variant Roms works on 4X too.
All you've to do is to own a redmi note 4/4X with Snapdragon SOC in it. That's Mido, doesn't matter whenever they sold. All Roms works
I'm getting my hands on Note 4x (tomorrow) MTK (MT6797M) since I catch a great deal with it, but looking at the devs forum here...
MTK get less love compared to its Snapdragon counterpart. Im planning to tweak my unit a bit, so it'll be hard if I encounter issues with MTK.
Should I cancel this purchase and downgrade to 3GB/32 Snapdragon from 4G/64 MTK?
:halppls:
Yeah! If you're into tweaking and tinkering, snapdragon variant got much love.

In addition to that performance on MTK variant of Redmi-note-4 is better than snapdragon variant.

In my opinion, if you are going to buy a Xiaomi phone, you should always get one with a Snapdragon chipset. It will save you much angst down the road.
Snapdragon
Go for it
Snapdragon is much better. My friend is using 4X MTK version. He told me it drained battery and always overheated. The plus of MTK version is only the benchmark (higher than SD version),the screen quality and build quality. I've just ordered 4X SD version and it will be arrived in some days.
MTK no, worste gps, drain battery.
Snapdragon is better
Aha, that's right. MediaTek 20nm process Soc I do not recommend buying, Qualcomm 808 810 is a good example. MediaTek note 4x although there are 4gb RAM but MediaTek X20 processor heat terror. You can go to MIUI China Forum to see, complained that MediaTek version of the heat, cut off a lot of people. They all regret to buy the MediaTek version of the redmi note 4x.
In my opinion, Qualcomm 625 can be regarded as a real high with version!

Hi. What exactly do you mean by screen quality and build quality? I thought both variants are exactly the same except for the SOC used?

I noticed MTK version has a better screen brightness. Try watching the same movie on both phones. Also I think MTK version has better build by holding both phones. Maybe it's just my feelings. [emoji14]

I have 2 Note 4X MTK version, bought for the 64gb/4gb feature. Battery is good, does not overheat too. Of course, I don't play cpu-intensive games, only 1 game, Clash Royale.
I don't know about the Snapdragon, but I'm happy with the MTK. I just installed the developer build of MIUI 9 on one, and battery lasts even longer, power saving on permanently.
