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?

Friends - If you already got delivery from amazon or bought from mi store in India. Please help with following details:
1) LCD Panel - Tianma or something else. https://forum.xda-developers.com/redmi-note-8/help/redmi-note-8-tianma-lcd-panel-t3991425
2) 48 MB - Samsung GM1 or GM2
3) LT FDD and TDD bands supported. 4G+ working? Now is call quality, signal strength, speed?
4) If anyone of you have a realme 3 pro or 5 pro handy, try to compare on Point 3 above.
5) Speaker quality?
6) Fingerprint speed. If you have used RN7pro or realme 3 pro or Realme 5 pro, it may seem slow. That is what I understood from some video reviews on youtube.
Plz help. Nitpicking but very confused between Redmi Note 8 and Realme 3 pro. Ordered both at same price.
Will accept one and cancel another order.
RN8 pros over RM3Pro - Type C, Led Notification, Cameras?, Ir Blaster, MiUI (not a fan, but better than color os)
RM3Pro over RN8 - Processor (Huge difference. SD710 is way ahead. Better ISP, Better core and speed, Better AI, Better LTE (X15). SD665 pubg options are very low ), Better call and network quality (I heard), Vooc Charger.
What do you suggest.
Someone help here with some insights please.
Go with realme 3 pro and flash custom rom processor is important in long run also you can get better software experience with custom Roms what else can one want?

Custom Rom support on 3 pro is not that good. Still no official and stable roms. Multiple bugs. I have researched. I have been using custom roms for 5 years now Moto G1 and then Lenovo Z2 plus.
I consoled myself to adjust with Color OS also as SD 710 at this price is gr8 deal but color os specially on realme 3 pro has serious standby and battery drain issues it seems.
Except processor everything seems better on RN8.
SD665 is in a way downgrade from SD660 than an upgrade.

If I were you I would have gone with redmi note 7 pro which is at 12k (Sony imx 586 is beast) now but if you don't want that then you should wait for redmi note 9 as their odd no series is much better like redmi note 3,5,7 etc
And if you can't wait for it then gsi's can be installed on realme 3 pro and currently rom development hasn't taken pace for redmi note 8 too so I think little wait should be better.
One more thing realme launches devices more frequently and realme 6 box has came in leaks so whenever realme 6 pro launches you can get realme 5 pro in 10k (which will hardly take 6 months)
Conclusion : little patience and wait will be better if you don't need new device urgently

It is urgent. Sold my Lenovo Z2 plus on cashify. Battery would have died any day.
Using a freind's old phone temporarily.
Ordered both Realme 3 pro and Redmi note 8 at 9k. Have to settle with one of these for now.
Did lot of research. Not a single satisfactory phone in midrange without any flaws
So decided to go for less price for now and upgrade later after 1 year maybe.
Then go with realme 3 pro if can bear color os or can flash gsi (phusson sir's gsi's are pretty stable though) . And realme is working on more stock like rom too this is more bang for buck now. Faster charging and faster processor are the things you will notice in day to day life more rather than type c port and for camera gcam will do the job on both so you don't have to worry about cameras as both have capable sensors too

i am having Indian Unit.
1. IT has Tianama Panel
2.GM1 sensor
3.It supports all Indian 4G bands. And It has 4G+ (Jio) getting good net speed, signal strength and call quality is good, but ear piece is not that loud so u ill get bit low voice while u r on crowd place.
4. If u doesnt bother about 4G+ then u can go with realme 3 Pro. Their Color OS keep on getting improvements.
5. Loudspeaker is good but on max volume u ill get some distortions. 80% volume is good
6.FP is good no issues.
I am using realme 5 pro.. Color os is Not that bad.. and on debloting its very smooth. And use nova.. U will have good experiemce withsd 710.. And also cameras are good .Gcam improves it.. Also charging speed will definitely gives peace of mind. I like vooc charger.. And reception is better than my previous galaxy devices.. Internet speeds too..
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:
Does anyone know if poco m2 pro uses pwm?
i checked on notebookcheck but they didn't test this device.
as far as i know poco m2 pro is rebrand of redmi note 9 pro which uses pwm. but redmi note 9s which is almost same as redmi note 9 pro doesn't use pwm.
Hi there!
Apologies if this is not the right place to post this.
What do people think of the two devices? I'm curious to hear if there are people who switched from OP to Mi devices or the other way around and why.
Cheers!
definitely xiaomi 11 ultra if 1. you can get it in China. 2. you know how to flash to xiaomi EU rom later 3. you have checked the
band frequency in your region and it is supported at least calling and 4G. 5G I doulted. 4. If you do not mind the heaviness of
xiaomi 11 ultra design.
OnePlus 9 Pro vs Xiaomi Mi 11: Which should you buy?
In this OnePlus 9 Pro vs Xiaomi Mi 11 battle of the flagships, find out which phone is a better fit for for you.
www.androidauthority.com
Personally, I don't like MIUI; and don't think Xiaomi will have custom ROM support as good as Oneplus on the long run. They're both pretty good phones (I haven't tried both, just assuming from specsheet), if you don't mind MIUI and custom rom support, Mi11 Ultra seems to have better specs.
Ps. I'm a OP3 and 3T user and thinking to upgrade OP9 Pro.
I went for the Oneplus 9 Pro. I actually was waiting for the Xiaomi 11 Pro or the Ultra. Bought the wife the 10 ultra and liked it. So I wanted to go for Xiaomi as well. The Ultra was just a bit over the top for me. Watched the Xiaomi event life and once I saw the two phones, the bump in the back of the Ultra and the specs of the 11 Pro basically the same as the OP 9 Pro... I clicked on pre-order for the Oneplus.

Good decision!
I saw speed test review with Xiaomi mi11 Ultra vs. OnePlus 9 Pro.
9 Pro win almost all.
Depends on you, if you want to unlock the bootloader and install custom roms, my experience with xiaomi phones was that I didn't like the idea of waiting a week for them to unlock the bootloader, even though the phone it's yours vs Oneplus you can unlock it right away, I just purchased 2 months ago a xiaomi note 9t 5g and they haven't updated, I'm still running android 10, there is no updates or support for a least this particular cell phone. So I bought OP9 Pro ( Chinese version) and I'm really happy with it.
