Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro 6 / 64GB

Advantages: 1. I took it for the camera. I can't say that it is perfect, but I have never had the best one in a smartphone. Everything you need shoots very well. As a photographer, I have something to compare with. 2. NFC - was also one of the priorities for choosing this particular model - quite convenient. But it requires a special setting in this device (see comment). 3. The screen is normal - large, bright and juicy. Auto brightness works quickly. Since I use a smartphone a lot, including reading books, I am intimidated by flickering PWM and OLED burnout, so I prefer the classic IPS. 4. Appearance pleases. The assembly is of high quality. Glass on the back. 5. Autonomy is normal, but more was expected from a 4500 mA battery. 6. Price - with such a package it is the main advantage of this device. All his critics should not forget that no one has such a set for such money. Well, perhaps Honor 9X pro, but there are cockroaches there, because of which it did not become my choice.

Disadvantages: 1. The camera is good, but not perfect. 64MP is practically marketing, not to mention a macro camera that is not needed at all. Also a rather weird night shot that tries to make day out of night. The main drawback of the camera is that it sticks out strongly on the back panel and it must be protected with a special glass and a cover. It is also sad that the camera does not allow you to save images in RAW. 2. The included case does not have sides of the camera and does not protect it from scratches. In addition, it is unpleasant to the touch and turns a beautiful smartphone into a banal black remnant. The cover should be bought another, ordered, I'm waiting from Ali. 3.The front camera in the teardrop notch is a little annoying. Plus, I hardly ever use it. It would be better if it was retractable, and the screen without cutouts. 4. The device is unusually large and heavy - clearly not a female version. But with my paws quite - I get used to it. 5. The aspect ratio of the screen is 19.5: 9. This modern trend towards increasing the diagonal by increasing the length of the apparatus is annoying. Actually, such a long screen is not needed - a 2: 1 ratio (18: 9) would be enough. As a result, the problem is the keyboard. I have to type quite a lot of texts and this ratio makes typing inconvenient, both vertically and horizontally. Especially when using the standard 3-row Gboard keyboard. Saves only Smart Keyboard, which allows you to place the Russian layout in 4 rows and make a shift from the bottom in a portrait position. And at the same time, you can't get rid of Gboard without root, and you don't want to do root to save NFC. 6. The MediaTek Helio G90T is quite gluttonous, so there are no very brilliant results in autonomy. See comment.

Comment: I can't estimate the performance, because I don't play, but nothing slows down that way. I suffered for a long time with the NFC connection - I put on my ears both banks in which I have cards and wrote in support of Google Pay, but then I asked Yandex the right question and understood how to set up NFC in this device. Go to the settings and find the item "Additional functions" and find the NFC block. In the column "Location of the security element" select the item "HCE wallet". by default, the item "SIM Wallet" is set there. See fig. All, after completing this simple action, you can safely pay for your purchases anywhere using NFC technology and Google Pay. As for the battery and processor, the additional 500mA is cleanly consumed by this processor and the smartphone keeps at the level of similar 4000mA competitors. At first, the first 3 charges, the battery generally flew away at a wild speed, but then it developed a little. In addition, I gradually killed a bunch of unnecessary applications, and for those who could not be killed, I turned off autoload and after that the battery began to keep quietly for a couple of days. Which, however, is normal for me, I and the 3000mA Huawey P9 lived for 2 days without charging. After a while, there was a problem with the proximity sensor after gluing the glass with a black edge. This was expressed in the fact that during a call, the screen went out when approaching the ear and did not turn on again until the end of the call. Enraged! Found a SOLUTION in the internet. 1. Go to the engineering menu * # * # 6484 # * # * 2. In the engineering menu, click on THREE dots in the upper right corner - Additional tools 3. Go to item 10 Proximity sensor. 4. Click the Calibrate button. By the way, in the same place you can check the operation of the sensor by bringing your finger closer and away from the sensor and observe the change in readings. When the sensor is triggered, the upper value changes to 0. DONE! In general, I like the device - I recommend it. For that kind of money, a very real machine.

Advantages: I compare with the galaxy s8, which was 1.5 years before it. - price. Officially it costs 17,000, taking into account the accumulated cashback from the bank, it cost 8700 rubles. Virtually nothing - build quality, materials. Not inferior to much more expensive devices. - specifications. They are in no way inferior to flagships 1-2 years ago, which are still relevant to this day, and are many times more expensive. The screen is of excellent quality, the main camera is better than on the galaxy s8, which was before it, the processor is more powerful than on the Samsung. - speed of work and shell. Lightning-fast unlocking, no micro-lags compared to Samsung. In anttu he gave 280 thousand against Samsung's 200 thousand. - Fast charging included - there is nfc, I use it very often, without it, the smartphone, in principle, did not consider buying. - Battery. For this size, the ips of the screen holds great. About 7-8 hours of the screen, at medium brightness (1 hour of games, 2 hours of YouTube, messengers, sites, while Wi-Fi, BT, GPS, NFS are always on).If you are not interested in games, then you can count on two days without worry. - Communication is better. It also holds where the Samsung did not catch at all. - The sound quality is not worse than the Samsung. The LDAC codec is present, which I use when connecting to good headphones. The sound from the speaker did not disappoint either.

Disadvantages: - the percentage in games heats up a little more than the Samsung one. It does not cause discomfort, but there is such a moment - a dimensional one, after s8. But here either the screen is large or compact. - the camera block sticks out a little. Solved with a complete cover. - the quality of a wide-angle camera, and macro is only suitable for instagram. Medium quality. On the other hand, in s8 I had only one camera at all. - That would be a memory card and 2 SIM cards at the same time, in general it would be super

Comment: The device is just a cannon bomb! This is definitely the hit of the year. Everything is done simply for 5+ and tactile and visually it looks quite expensive. Shoots gorgeous on the main one. It may be a little noisy in the twilight, but the detailing due to 64 megapixels is at a high level. I didn't even notice much difference between amoled and this matrix. Slightly less bright, and the black color is not so deep, but in everyday use it does not bother the word at all. There were doubts about the processor, they say the media library is not optimized ... If you do not play games (heavy games), you should not worry at all. And if you play, then it shouldn't either! PUBG flies at maximum settings. Tanks too. 30-40 fps calmly holds, does not strongly trot. Works at SD 730 level Take it and don't worry! For its money, the device is simply out of competition. I add after a month: Updated to MIUI 11. Everything works great! By the way, in games, the percentages began to warm up less. Apparently, something was fixed in the firmware, or PUBG was optimized. Smart pleases even more than before. I didn’t regret for a minute that I sold my galaxy s8 and bought it.

Advantages: Camera, screen, speed, functionality

Disadvantages: Not all apps are responsive for this screen

Comment:

Advantages: The phone is generally super. Everything about him suits me. 100% satisfied

Comment:

There are no analogues for your money. I took on Ali for 13,000 rubles. globalku. Moved after mi max2. Unusually, it seems small in comparison with the mimax because of the aspect ratio + buttons on the display - this is a separate pain: instead of a space I constantly press "exit to the main menu". Flies like an airplane, 6GB of RAM! A bunch of cameras + show off, but cool. The color "white pearl" is beautiful. The 4500mAh battery holds, like the mi max2 after 2 years of use - for a couple of days in medium activity mode. With Bluetooth ears-mi mates normally, with a radio in a car - too. Includes a transparent silicone case. 11/11 I'm going to take on Ali the same, but for 128GB = 13.900r. for a white apparatus! I recommend to all! P.S .: take 128GB right away, the price difference is minimal! If I don't get used to it, I'll take the less sophisticated mi max3, I'm already very used to shovels. All good!) * I took the device on Ali for 13.100 rubles for 128GB. On my 6/64, the Google Assistant periodically turns on itself - we are being watched, ladies and gentlemen!

Advantages: - Appearance - Performance - NFC - Camera - Autonomy

Disadvantages: - Software: Google dialer, contacts and sms, no call recording - Size: for someone (girls) may seem too big to use with one hand

Comment: The performance is excellent, everything flies, no lags or glitches. But I didn't play games. Unlocking with a fingerprint or face is triggered instantly. I did not find any heating. The camera does an excellent job for its price. Compared with RN5 - eight is better in all respects. Even in the dark. But, of course, you should not expect a flagship result, do not forget about its price. I set up NFC for the "HCE Wallet" and everything worked without any problems. There are no complaints about GPS performance. For most people, the charge will last for 1.5-2 days of use.I have no idea how to plant it in one daylight. Only if you sit in it all the time: watch a video or play. In general, it is a very good indicator if you use your smartphone as a smartphone, and do not live in it. A dialer from Google is tough, inconvenient. It would be better to leave their MIUI applications. It's a shame ... So far, the solution to the problem is only to upgrade to firmware for Indonesia. In all other respects (for example, sound), I would say that the apparatus is normal. Nothing particularly outstanding, but also nothing to scold. +/- at the level of other devices in this price category. ATTENTION! It is important not to overestimate your expectations! If you now have a Redmi Note 7/7 Pro on hand (or something similar to it), you will not notice any particular difference (unless, of course, the purpose of the transition is to get a device with NFC)! But, for example, the transition from Redmi Note 5 is already quite justified and the difference for the better is felt on each of their points. I moved from a smartphone in 2015 and am more than happy with the device.

For its value, the phone is a fairy tale. I bought it for myself and my wife. The phone flies like an airplane, plays all games, the Internet works without delays, 4 different security systems. The camera is excellent, in the dark only - so-so. Overall 5 points.

Advantages: Good device for its price, camera, performance in games at the level

Disadvantages: It seems like the screen should not be scratched by all sorts of little things (gorila 5 as stated by the manufacturer), but this is nonsense, after a week of use, there were small scratches from wearing in your pocket

Comment: I took it at a discount, I'm happy with everything, the advice is to immediately make a reservation for glass or film, the screen is covered with small scratches even from wearing it in your pocket, otherwise everything that should be in its price range, the device is decent)))

Advantages: Very high-quality assembly All top games fly on Ultra graphics Camera fire is NFC Charging is enough for a day if you are constantly on the phone. Two days in call mode or a couple of hours on the Internet to read the news. Fast charging Very high quality color Stylish

Disadvantages: Operates the camera, it is better to find a cover that will close it so as not to scratch

Comment: I advise you to take it, the phone is on fire, it will last for at least three years! Yes, this is a MediaTek percentage, but turn it, it's not the same. Here is the top-end, new MediaTek Helio G90T and it is just a burst of speed compared to others. My opinion the phone is very decent

Advantages: As always, the goods were sent very cheaply and very quickly, thank you very much. I would recommend.

Disadvantages: Not revealed yet.

Comment: The only thing I didn’t like was that I ordered CDEK by courier, they should have brought it on 02/04/2020 - 02/07/2020, but as a result, CDEK had some problems in Moscow, that it was delivered on 02/09/2020 and then they took it to CDEK, because courier day off. I would not advise CDEK and use it in the future.
