   Review after 3 months
   I would like to start with prosPros:1. After unboxing, the first feel and look is awesome. The aura x grip design on the back of the device is superb considering its price range which gives a premium feel while you are holding the device in your hands.2. The big 6.22 inch ips lcd display of resolution 720×1520. The viewing angles are good and comes with support of sunlight display which mean in outdoors one will not have a problem viewing this device. Due to its large screen content consuming is very good and the dot notch in the top middle of the screen does not annoy while watching videos or playing games. The display also comes with gorilla glass 5 protection which is very rare in this price segment and protects your device to some extent from scratches and drops.3. This device comes with p2i nano coating which means it can save the device from splashes of water to a certain extent. But do not dip it in water as it is not water resistant.4. This device comes with snapdragon 439 processor which is based on 12nm process. This chipset can go up to 2ghz and performs day to day task and gaming easily. Pubg lite and pubg mobile runs smoothly on this device. Pubg lite can go up to a maximum resolution of balanced at very high frame rates whereas pung mobile can go upto balanced with medium frame rates. Both games run smoothly without any lag or stutter.5. This device is powered by a 5000mah battery which gives a backup of upto 2 dys on average usage. But for heavy gamers and content viewers this device gives backup of upto a day on single charge. This device comes with 10ww charge and if you charge with 10w charger it takes around 2hr 30min but if you charge it by 18w charger it takes around 2hr.6. The camera on the back is 13+2 mp AI dual camera. The ai scene detection is good and fast. The backgroung blur during portrait mode is very good and the selfie camera is 8mp ai camera. This also support portrait mode but the blur could have been better. Both camera support 1080p recording at 30fps.7. Comes with face unlock and is pretty fast with proper lighting condition.Cons:1. The cameras could have been better.2. IR blaster is missing.3. Notification Led is missing.4. Fingerprint reader is missing.5. Both cameras struggles in low light conditions.6. Comes with miui with full of bloatwares and ads. But they can be disabled and and stopped.WARNING: For non chinese smartphone users if you buy this phone it will com with pre installed chinese apps banned by Indian government bu they will fix it with an ota update so not worry.My Opinion:After using this device I would recommend this device to buyers with budget under 10,000. Everything is good and the updates are also quick and timely. And no problem with the device.

   It’s an OK mobile for all day important activities
   Hi,I am an IT engineer and today I am going to write an honest review after using this phone for 2 months.Pros :1) One of the main feature of this phone is a BIG battery which can last 24 hours of moderate-to-high usage with WIFI/Data ON for whole day with hours of talking and surfing of social media apps.2) BIG screen. This phone is really having a big screen for first time smartphone buyers.3)Fast face unlock. This is quite really amazing feature where you can quickly unlock your phone. It also unlocks even if you wear mask on face.4)Better processor. It works well with some apps being used simultaneously.5)Fast Charging. It charge fast (not very fast) when compare to other phones with less than 10K. It gets charge around 1 hour.6)Good speaker. Speaker is loud.7)Don’t get heat up. Surprisingly, being a Redmi phone, this doesn’t get hot that much :)8)Selfie Camera is good. Back cameras are also good but not great. Work well in daylight outside or in functions in nights.Random images may be bad but you need to tap focus, turn on flashlight and take pictures without shaking.Cons :1)Little Heavy.2)Display is not full HD or AMOLED but looks not so bad.3)Not for high end gamers.4)Volume adjustment often doesn’t work. It’s shocking that sometimes volume get really high and unable to set to low quickly.. it increase or gets decrease automatically. I’m confused why this issue exists on the device.5)WIFI Calling has some issues but works well with normal calling.6)Lack fingerprint scanner. You can unlock using face scanning.7)Phone WIFI takes longer time to be connected.8)Internal Memory filled up soon, makes apps shut down and you cannot transfer installed apps to SD card.9)You can see some bugs in MIUI even if its updated to MIUI 12+. I could see slowness, apps auto shutdown, auto restart etc.Conclusion : If you just want a tough phone which lasts 1.5 days and have all necessary features and you don’t have habit of showing off to other friends then this phone is perfect for you.If you want a high end phone which can play heavy games faster and do multiple tasks simultaneously and have a crisp clear camera and very fast charging then this phone is not for you. You can invest little further and buy another one.Thank you!
