This one of best budget phones available in the market.
Design:
The design is similar to Redmi note 3, Note 3 is made up of metal. It also has curved back and there’s 2.5D curved glass all over the front. When we hold the device, the device is feeling premium.
Display:
The 5.5 inch display is top class. The screen is very vibrant and bright. I would recommend this phone for watching movies etc. I could see some scratches on the screen, so you should apply some tempered glass.
Camera: Primary 13 MP; Secondary 8 MP:
The camera impressed me in day light. The images taken were crisp and sharp. The photos were having great details. But in low light, the camera fails. there is much noise in the phones taken in low lights. When we move to front camera, it takes average selfies. Xiaomi should improve their camera department.
Hardware:
The phones with Snapdragon 652 processor and GPU is Adreno 506. I could play heavy games like nova 3 etc without no issues. I could observe some heating issues
Battery Life:
The best battery backup I have seen. The phone has 4100 mAh battery. I didn’t charge my device for 3 days and 13% charge was left. I used it as my primary device. Now you can guess about the battery life
OS and User Interface:
The phones on Android Marshmallow. The user interface is known as MIUI. This MIUi has several features like automated task, clone apps etc.
The SIM slot supports 4G and Volte is available.
The phone should had better speakers. The sound level is medium. The fingerprint sensor is fast.
For the price of 13, 00, the device is value for money. If you are already on Redmi note 3, you might not see any reasons to upgrade
