I owe Xiaomi redmi note 3 32GB model, its been a quite a while I used it for casual gaming, photography stuff. The thing I love about the device is its battery back up, 4G Volte support, 16MP Camera.
How is the sound reception?
In the beginning, I had an issue with reception but after few update now its fixed and the device works flawlessly.
Is it user-friendly? How is the GUI?
MIUI is one of the best GUI I have ever come across, you dont need to worry about customization options are pretty good. its user-friendly.
How is Style & Design!? How does it look & feel in hand?
It has 4010mah battery and compares to another device I feel the device is quite light weight so you dont need to worry about your hand if you are holding it for a long time. The negative point is the sleekness of the device, it is very sleepy in hand if you dont hold it tight I have a back cover made of a material which has a good grip so it solves the problem.
Other Features like IR blaster is very handy especially when you have a lot of remote controls for different electronic appliances it can replace them all I am using it with my LG smart TV.
Value for money? what about resell value?
By the passage of time, you can get a lot better device at the budget of 13k such as Xiaomis very own device Redmi note 4. coming to the resell value it depends upon the accessories you are giving it most of the customers requests the original charge and bill if you have the same believe me you can get plenty of money by reselling Redmi note 3 devices to the genuine person.
