Question Redmi K40 vs. Xiaomi 11: these phones score almost the same but are very different in price - Xiaomi Poco F3 / Xiaomi Mi 11X / Redmi K40

According to Antutu Xiaomi 11 (flagship) Total score is 782521. Redmi K40 Pro is 778372. These scores are almost identical; what's the difference between these two phones? The Redmi is ¥2499 while the Xiaomi 11 is ¥4399, a substantial difference in price.

I assume you're comparing the Redmi K40 Pro to the Mi 11. First of all this is the Redmi K40 forum not the Redmi K40 Pro forum. Second of all the Mi 11 is more expensive because of the slightly higher quality display and the super cameras: https://m.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=10656&idPhone2=10727

Oh! Sorry, didn't realize that. I haven't posted on this site in years and years. Looks different than it used to! Super useful site you linked, thanks!

The Indian RN5pro is the same as the global Redmi Note 5, so has a common codename, Whyred, despite the minor differences in camera!

I hope you get this straight.
1. India Redmi note 5 (sd 625) is Redmi 5 plus(sd 625) in China.
2. In India Redmi note 5 pro(sd636) is Redmi note 5 (sd 636) in China.

Technically it should work, but in rn5 pro case it wouldn't. This is just a speculation from my side
Xiaomi released RN5 Pro way earlier than RN5 China and RN5 Global. At that time there's no RN5 China or even RN5 Global yet. So it can be assumed that they never tested or optimized this nougat rom for rn5 china.
After 1 month, they released RN5 China with Android 8.1. So, they should've been working on 8.1 but not on 7.1 for rn5 china which explains the camera incompatibility.
Now that RN5 Global is launched with 9.5.5 Oreo which has same harware specs as RN5 China, the upcoming Global Oreo update for RN5 Pro/RN5 Global should bridge the incompatibility between two slightly different specs. There should be no fcs with this update. Till then use china stable rom.
Now that RN5 Global is launched with 9.5.5 Oreo which has same ...

Unfortunately no. Even in Indonesia, it will be a hassle to buy this phone coz of flash sales. So, besides waiting, there is no other option.

As of this moment, flashing the Global ROM(Pro) on the Chinese Redmi Note 5(AI), works fine, even the camera. But flashing the China ROM on the Pro, breaks the camera app and causes force closes. Its better not to mix and match, according to me at least.

Sure? even the camera? i'll try
I have seen there was an announcement of the new Xiaomi Mi 6X. Specs are likely the same like Redmi Note 5 Pro.
Differences i have seen on the first view:
Xiaomi Mi 6X has USB Typ-C
Redmi Note 5 Pro has bigger battery
Some suggestions about that? Anybody can say something to the rom development? How was this in the past? Which of the two models will get more rom developement? Are there big advantages of Mi6X or Redmi Note 5 Pro?

There is a major difference of soc as well. Mi 6c has sd660 and note 5 pro has 636(which can said equivalent to 660 to some extent).
Regarding development, judging from the past mi5x( aka mi a1 in India) there won't be much developer support. RN5P will definitely have better community support out of these two.

What is this new global version? Is it another new Redmi Note 5 phone that different from both China and India versions?
Is there any hardware differences between China and Global, or Global vs Indian?

Redmi Note 8 or Poco F1

I know, on paper, its no contest, But I am trying to decide between Redmi Note 8 and Poco F1. The difference between them is only £40
These are the important factors for me, the first 4 are must haves.
Good Battery life
Good Custom ROM support (now and future)
Headphone socket
SD Card
Notification LED
Reasonable Screen
Reasonable performance, (no gaming and was content with Redmi 5 Pro 4Gb Snapdrgon 636 until it broke)
I know the Poco F1 is much higher spec, but I dont really like the look (ugly cut out at the top and big bezel at the bottom). Plus because Redmi 8 is newer, I thought maybe better support for custom roms, in the future.
What do you think ?
Hi,
I had the Pocophone F1 and I now have Redmi note 8. Yes the F1 is faster but the notch is awful. The reason I sold it was because of the notch. Redmi note 8 ROM support is really ramping up and the teardrop notch is so so much better because android notifications were hard to see on the F1. Save the money and get the note 8.
Cheers dude.
I had used poco F1 ,now I have redmi note 8 ,forget poco F1 which I sold it after 2 months
Out of interest, what did you like on Poco and what is better on Note 8 ?.
Thanks

Poco F1 was okay, tbh I didn't really like anything about it other the the SD845. Redmi note 8 is good so far with pixel experience Feb build. MIUI is something I've never liked but my favourite android is stock always, I love it's simplicity.
Cheers.

Redmi Note 9 Pro (Global) vs. Note 9 Pro (Indian) vs. Note 9 Pro Max (Indian)

Is it proper for me to politely ask here, if Everyone can either
a) (preferred, I'd think)
create a new sub-directory for each model
or b) in EVERY post, please say, redmi note 9 Pro Global/Indian/Max
I just purchased one, using on AT&T in Florida, and am EXTREMELY confused.
The phone is running great, but the different models and monikers are driving me crazy.
PS: has the redmi note 9 Pro (global) been rooted yet?
(is it easy? Hard?)
thanks
You´re absolutely right, I find it very confusing too. I´ve just ordered a Redmi Note 9 Pro, but it seems I will be getting the Pro Max (which is good), but it wasn't even advertised as Max.
Here's an overview of the differences between the Pro and the Pro Max:
https://www.androidauthority.com/redmi-note-9-pro-vs-redmi-note-9-pro-max-1095780/
Xiaomi are spectacularly good at totally unconventional naming of their products. I found a great YouTube video that does a good job of revealing just how confusing it all is here:

Question Poco F3 vs Mi 10t/10t pro

Assalam Alaykom​​Hello Everybody​
I id like to ask about F3 an d how is it compared to mi10t /10tpro
I have been confused between them
Thanks in advance
Spoiler
and I wanted to know how to add a poll
POCO F3 Vs MI10T
Basically. MI10T has SD 865, Better Camera and Battery. It also has a 144hz IPS LCD Screen. Something I am not really a fan of.
While POCO F3 is powered by SD 870. an E4 120hz AMOLED.
I'd go with Poco F3. I already bought one. it's on the way. Better performance with a cheaper price.

What I advise you is to wait for redmi 11 models. It seems like they will appear soon.
Among the three I prefer f3, no doubt!
owning a poco F3, I am really happy with it cuz I've got it for less than 400 euros for the 256 version, it is very smooth and pleasant to use but if you can get a mi10t pro for the same price the last one will be a better deal. Soc is more or less the same (a tad slower), but camera will be way better, a'd you won't have proximity sensor issue which is a pain in the ass and a big drawback on this phone. I don't understand how xiaomi can sell a phone on which this basic function is not reliable. also stock rom on poco F3 is loaded with bloatware.

Question Redmi K40 gaming edition!!

Hey all, If I should choose the POCO F3 or another phone if I'm going to upgrade from iPhone 6plus. I've never had a xiaomi phone, but I'm interested in the midrange budget phones of xiaomi that are gaining lots of positive reviews. So while I was looking for a POCO F3, someone recommended to check out the "Redmi K40 gaming edition", as I mentioned I am not xiaomi phone expert but the k40 looks similar to poco f3 however the k40 gaming https://nox.tips/ https://xender.vip/ edition is different. If you have the chance to choose between POCO F3 or Redmi K40 gaming edition, what would you go for? Taking in consideration the performance, ram, display, battery, software... Ofcorse I'm not getting it for gaming only but for general uses including gaming sometimes (I don't care about the camera) I'm focusing on what would give me a great gaming and general use features and would last for 3-4 years!! Thanks in advance for your opinions.

I use K40 gaming and if you don't care about NFC it will work only in China no Global then buy it. Also I set gidro geluim mate screen cover for smoother finger experience than glossy glass cover which can crack and dirty faster but cheaper. I highly recommend BUY: POCO X3 Pro 8/128,256 gb. From the first it is cheaper than any phone for now and the second the price K40 gaming 315$ POCO F3 400$ POCO X3 Pro 8/256 gb. 215$ Man think twice do you need gaming triggers for 315$ or 400$ F3? buy X3 Pro processor is the same, same battery, same ram/rom memory, same stereo speakers, great IPS LCD, me personally prefer amoled lcd for deep black only.
Choose POCO X3 Pro you won't regret.
I agree The Xiaomi so could gaming phones don't make sense A gaming smartphone needs better specs then normal phone not the other way around It's really frustrating Xiaomi brand does this kinda crap too gamers who just need ...Dinar Recaps
