LineageOS for me, but there are tons of development happening for Mido, choose whichever the best rom for you xD
Yellowish torch light
Camera seems bad on Custom roms(i dunno, I don't use camera)
Battery? Same as Miui
That's it, I guess.
But lineage is not official for Mido?
Isn't camera better when they released the kernel source?

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.

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

This has hold so much, development is really unlikely to die. I wouldn't call it super durable, same goes for most modern phones. The back cover already has dents on mine, in less than a month. I'd say you go for it and not care too much.

I know the feeling. Used to be a flashaholic now i'm a simpler man.
if you are a normal user that seeking for nice battery phone i think its still worth it , but this phone is not for gaming, u will facing lagg an some fps drop when playing higher graphic game , redmi note 3 pro are the better choice , balanced between battery and performance .
Consider that, at this moment, all Oreo rom have fingerprint sensor not working. Maybe it will be fixed, but who knows.
I know the redmi note 5 is around the corner but would have still bought note 4 again,if I were to!

Yes bro , in this week may be tomorrow or day after tomorrow i will buy one. finally giving my honor 8 to my mom yeayyy
Xiaomi will provide updates for this device for at least a year and the development is great. With the release of MIUI 9 the phone is lightning fast and buttery smooth. Camera quality is better and has excellent battery backup. So u can buy this or u can probably wait till xiaomi releases redmi note 5 as it is rumored to have a 18:9 display ratio. U can wait. But here the custom roms development is great with many Android oreo based roms available with low bugs.
THANK YOU GUYS , I think i made a good decision , bought this budget beast .
I'm disappointed with this phone, I still hope 8 Android Oreo. I decided to go back to Redmi Note 3.
We don't have as many developers as redmi note 3 has. Instead , we have just one. Good that we still have one....
Also , with only one dev , the android oreo progress is slow...

Hey, i had Redmi Note 3 SD and there is a big difference in build quality, camera and screen.
Why u decided to take the rn3 again?
Only cause of ROMs?
MIUI is just fine
btw. Last week the dev uploaded a few ROMs on Oreo, check it out!

There were not as many software refinements an options for this cellphone this is true (at the time you posted this)
That has changed mate
I strongly urge you to give this cell another chance.
Hi All
Just wondering how popular the Mi Pad 4 is and will there be many ROMs in the foreseeable future?
I'm coming from Zenfone 2, Redmi Note 3 and now G5S Plus which have many ROMs to choose from.
If I am honest it looks a bit sparse but I'm OK with that if the few that are here get all the bugs worked out. Id be happy with a fully working Lineage.
I'm surprised there is not more considering the price to performance seems to be decent and the 3gb/32gb is now about $160 on gearbest.

Has Mokee or LineageOS the widevine L1 flag?
Install this app and start it and look for the Widevine flag. For HD-content to be streamable for Netflix or Prime, it must be L1. Mostly it is only L3.. :/

Great, I actually donated for Mokee on my Redmi Note 3 it was a great ROM on that device.
