Average phone by xiomi, look is average.Now a days market is full of cheaper products and they are able to knock xiomi out of the race.Now realme c1 is a direct competitor of redmi 5 and c1 is cheaper than that too.This phone has its own pro and cons.Finger print scanner can't detect properly your finger.Face detection is also unavailable.Heavy gamers please never think to biy it.N.O.V.A a game that is under 40mb doesn't run in this phone.Xiomi needs to reduce it's price to 6, 000 or lower.It lags sometimes and heating issue is another con.8K is very too much for this phone.
CONCLUSION,
Don't buy redmi 5 for 8K rather go for realme c1 which is 7.5k and have notch better GPU.Runs pubg as well, Bigger display, higher battery, but doesn't have a finger print scanner.
