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.
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??
Go for redmi note 4 sd
Does Redmi 4 Prime and Redmi Note 4X (should be almost the same as Redmi Note 4 in India with 625) have significant difference in battery life? Latter one has larger display, but both use same SoC and have same battery capacity, so how much of a difference in battery life should be expected?

Your last phone, what did you hate? What is the lack you regret the most? For me, its battery life...
So you choose redmi 3s or note 4x, for 4100 mah battery.
If you really want nougat out of the box, go for redmi 4 or note 4x, ask yourself what you really need...
I think you can buy latest redmi note 4x ,it's better
I just bought the redmi note 3 special (kate) with 3gb/32gb. It is faster than the note 4 especially for gaming, and has more hardware features. If you look up the specs, the note 3 is better in everything except battery life- which is still incredible, just a bit less incredible. The extra battery life has a cost though, read on.
The note 3 comes with MM but there are more custom roms for it than the note 4 which I expect will not ever sell as many units, unless Xiaomi discontinues the note 3.
It seems that the ppl recommending the note 4 have not looked at the actual specs or reviews of the 3 vs 4, I cannot explain why they would have given you that advice above. I almost made that same mistake, thinking that 4 is better than 3 (since it is a higher number and it is a newer device), but look it up for yourself. 3 is significantly better than 4 and if you travel outside China and India, the note 3 special (kate) is the way to go because of the extra antennas.
The only reasons you would go with the 4 is if you need nougat and will not install your own custom rom to get nougat on the note 3. Also, if the antennas in the 4 are exactly the ones you need and you will not travel. And, if you have a reason to need the extra battery life and are willing to accept the lower CPU and GPU performance. The clear winner is the note 3, which should be priced higher than the note 4- but it isnt!
Just saw the Redmi Note 4X black version at geekbuying for $189. I'd probably get that.
Hello everyone,
I know this is the Q&A for N4P but I still wanna ask because I cant find that much comparasion between these three on english/german.
So, my questions are:
1. Speed? Not gaming, just Facebook, WhatsApp, YouTube and such apps.
2. Camera? Normal and low light. I know the N3P has 16 megapixel but I am asking anyways. I just heard that both cameras are ultra bad in low light.
3. Battery? Is there a noticable difference?
Thanks!
Hey, i want to swap my RN3P with the RN4P Global... as i hate MIUI i flashed RR the next day i got the phone. i dont use the RN4P as my daily driver right now but here are my short conclusions from the last 3-4 days.
1. for me both phones act the same in speed while opening stock apps, whatsapp, gallery etc. what i noticed is that while swiping homescreen fast the screen seems to blur a bit. i dont know if thats something from the screen or if its something of the software, because kernel sources havent been released yet for the RN4P. as the development is more mature on the RN3P i cant tell if its a bug or something right now. didnt use MIUI a lot.
2. for me both are good in good light conditions, in low light i think both are same ... same ****ty what i noticed is that with the RN3P i could get a little bit closer to objects and take macro shots ... with the RN4P i have to move bit back.
3. cant compare that right now. as the SN625 is way more efficient then the SD650 the RN4P should be better in battery. if we will notice that on a daily basis ... i cant tell
haha, so i will answer your questions:
1. Speed? Both CPU's are in "daily usage" indistinguishable. 650 is faster in games but need more power then the 625. 625 is a downgrade!
2. Camera is okay for a phone that costs about 200€. Low-Light is bad with massive Picture noise, in daylight RN4 has more colors and contrast.
3. I get about 10 hours with my RN3 and about 11 with my RN4. 2 Days use, only WLAN.
Thanks to both of you!
But yeah, at the end of the day, both phones are almost similiar or? From what I've understood, Snapdragon 650 is better for gaming, Snapdragon 625 for daily usage (Facebook,Whatsapp etc) or?
I mean, the Note 4 / Note 4x is lil bit faster in general (except for gaming)?
yeah they are pretty similiar but i love the look of the RN4P. the case design is way better then on the RN3P. the 2.5glas let it look way more expensive then it is. loudspeaker on the buttom is better then on the back.
And the RN4P is the Redmi Note 4x or what? I cant find any Redmi note 4 pro or something like that. Can you link it to me?
Sorry for off topic but i find this thread is worth to ask for this:
Which device is kenzo? The redmi note 3 or the redmni note 3 pro?

Kenzo = Redmi Note 3 pro (snapdragon)

Redmi Note 4 "Pro" is probably the Snapdragon one. The "Pro" part isn't official. That started when people online started calling the Redmi Note 3 SD as RN3Pro.
Redmi Note 4X is just the Snapdragon version(Indian) sold in China. As they already have Note 4(Mediatek) there. The only difference are Note 4X has a lot more colors available and it has Bluetooth 4.2 instead of 4.1 on Indian Note 4. ROMs for RN4SD works on 4X as some have stated(can't confirm, I don't own the phone)

Thanks! That means speed wise and battery wise are both Note 4 and Note 4x same devices? The 4x has more colors and looks "more beautiful"?
But still, would you suggest me Note 3 Pro or the Note 4 / Note 4x? As I have said, gaming is not my thing. I just wanna apps open fast and the battery life.
Also, do you know if there is a Note 4x version with lte Band 20? I think there is Note 4 with lte Band 20. but since 4x has more colors, I would rather take that one.
thanks

No, 4 and 4X are not the same device, completely different body design, you should take 4X if you can, it also has better display, and with SD625 you get more screen-on time...

The Note 4 that was sold in India also has SD 625. It also looks the same aside from wider range of colors for the 4X, 5(?) Instead of 3. I'm pretty sure you're talking about the Mediatek version. If you really read my post, you'll see that I'm talking about the Indian variant.

For now none. And who knows if it will have one. Note 3 Kate(Special Edition) has it.
Here: http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8580&idPhone2=8531
As you can see Note 4 SD have the same dimensions and weight as the Note 4X.
I don't know if you can import The Indian variant but if you don't live in India you'd probably be better off with 4X as the LTE on the Indian one is limited.
Also the 4/64 variant of the note 4X uses a mediatek chipset. If you want the more efficient, battery friendly SD 625 then stick with the 3/32 variant. If you can't live without the Band 20 then your only choice would be Note 3 Pro Kate. Or maybe another brand though I don't know anything about those..

Yes, but Note 4 Global looks just like 4X design wise.. So Xiaomi made a mistake, they have device with the same name in 2 different designs.
http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_620903.html
Hi people, above the link. I ordered this one. It should be the Note 4 or the Note 4x (I dont understand it yet) with LTE Band 20 or?
I just dont understand where is the difference between International version and Global version.
I guess theres nothing "big" between those two.

AS i read in German boards...
Global = Band 20 LTE
International = only with international ROM, no band 20 LTE

That means I ordered the right one.. happy because of that really because I was unsure about the names.
Just one question. I'm an aosp/cm user for few years already. Is there any rom available for this phone that should be used over standard miui? reasons maybe battery life, camera, speed?

I didn't even know there was a global version of the Note 4. All I know is the Indian Note 4 is basically the Note 4X. The Chinese Note 4 looks more premium(has a metal unibody) than both the Indian and Note 4X but uses Mediatek chipset(not so good at battery department, even note 3 pro beats it). So the Global Note 4 looks the same as the Note 4X only with Mediatek chipset? The Global Note 4 also has SD 625 and the same spec sheet aside from LTE bands and Bluetooth 4.2.
You can flash a ROM for the Indian Note 4 to Note 4X which confirms that they are indeed the same.

Sorry didn't know there was a Global Note 4 with band 20. Good thing you bought the correct one.
Wait for the source code to be released(someone said it's near, don't know if it was already as of this writing) for better stability. Right now you'd probably be better off with MIUI. If you can't stand MIUI I'd recommend AOSP Extended ROM.

Wrong, they recently released a 4GB/64GB Version of the Note 4 Global which uses the same SD 625 (this 20 of april if i recall correctly) , it's not exclusive to the Mediatek CPU

Stupid Xiaomi doing it again releasing the same model with different hardware. As if their naming sense wasn't confusing enough.
So my girlfriend's Redmi Note 4X just broke the screen and she needs a new phone. She was so pleased with it so we wants to try Xiaomi again. However, Xiaomi's model names are so amazingly stupid so I am having trouble choosing.
The first, cheaper, option seem to be the Xiaomi Redmi 5 Plus.
https://www.honorbuy.com/215-xiaomi-redmi-5-plus-global-version
It is pretty cheap and seems most like the old 4X except the 18:9 screen.
The other option is the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5
https://www.honorbuy.com/218-xiaomi-redmi-note-5
This looks like a newer phone with a new camera and a new(better?) processor but still with the same screen as the Plus model.
It is also a bit more expensive and only the chinese version seem to be available.
I have seen people here talking about the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro but I can't find this model anywhere? Is it the same as Plus?
I was wondering what is the best choice? I will flash LOS on the phone, not sure if that will work on the chinese version or if that version even has support in my country?(Sweden). Which device has the most support here in the forums? Should I buy a "Global" version?
redmi 5 plus = redmi note 5 , and REDMI NOTE 5 PRO is another device
redmi 5 plus and redmi note 5 is same device, but region wise the name is different.
another model is REDMI NOTE 5 PRO with upgraded processor and dual camera, and a front camera of 20MP. I hope the confusion is clear now.

Ok, so just to confirm:
Redmi Note 5 and the Redmi Note 5 Plus is the same device, the name difference is because of regions. However these models exists in various configurations such as different amounts of RAM, storage and colors.
Redmi Note 5 PRO is a newer model with dual cameras, and new CPU.
Is the pro version even out? Because I can't find it. Then I got examples such as this: https://www.honorbuy.com/218-xiaomi-redmi-note-5
Which do have dual cameras and new cpu but no 20MP front camera.

Absolutely correct.
Pro version is availabe here in India.
One easy way to distinguish is PRO version has dual rear camera and 20MP front camera, where redmi 5 plus / redmi note 5 has single camera .

Alright! I just looked at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=s5px3gLUZgY and he said that the chinese version does not support Band 20, so I will probably wait until the PRO version comes out in a global version.
Redmi Note 5 Pro (India) - whyred - Redmi Note 5 (China/Global)
Redmi Note 5 (India) - vince - Redmi 5 Plus (China/Global)
Hey guys im looking to upgrade my Redmi Note 4. So im torn between RN5 and Mi A1. I like the screen of Note 5 but I also like the A1 dual camera :/ . Besides bigger screen RN5 is not much of an upgrade... So i guess I just need second opinions
Mi A2 gonna launch in few days. I think you should wait for that
RN5 cameras are far better than A1's. Look at some reviews on YouTube. I would go Rn5, no doubts
Instead go for RN5 pro.
Combo of both bigger display and camera...
RN5Pro , definitely good development and best redmi.

Hello what do You mean by redmi note 5? Vince (sd 625) or whyred (Sd 636)
Ye I wasnt informed well. Redmi note 5 pro china edition is awesome. 5.99 screen, dual cameras.. I think ill go for it
Ok new question? What do you think about redmi s2 ? Is it a good upgrade from redmi note 4? How much better is note 5 from redmi s2? In my country Redmi S2 64/4 is a lot cheaper than Note 5 64/4

I think redmi s2 is just another redmi note 4 with different design, nothing is upgraded except dual camera bs
You could just stay with redmi note 4 . IMHO nothing wrong with it.
I myself just bought a redmi note 4 a week ago. I had the option of redmi note 5 pro, but I decided that 4 is better for my needs. 16:9 aspect ratio (yeah I don't like the 18:9 trend), physical navigation buttons, and camera that doesn't stick out of the phone are somethings that note 4 has and note 5 does not.
