I would be willing to give it a go. I have both devices. Would like the Phab 2 Pro benefits like VoLTE on the Phab 2. Especially if Lenovo isn't going to belly up and update the Phab 2 any time soon or at all.

My girlfriend is looking into purchasing a new phone. Should she get the 1+2 or Redmi Note 3?
Also forgot to ask why the oneplus 2 or Redmi note 3
Oneplus 2
Never settle
OnePlus Two.
why? because it's better than the other phone.
my wife has Redmi Note 3 with gigs of ram and i can tell u that is better and snappier that my oneplus 2 except the camera miui is better optimize
I was actually researching both phones as well, but I hear that the Redmi wont be updated to MM. It sounds like it comes as is and I dont care how cheap a phone is, Support is Priceless!!! I am worried sbout the Non-Spec charger and whether Oneplus 2 will get FP scanner support for Aosp roms.
Oneplus 2 or Redmi Note 3??? The question is meaningless. Not the same category.
Hello Friends,
I Need Your Important suggestion on Buying a New Phone.
Actually I was Using Micromax Nitro A311 with Custom Resurrection Remix v 5.8.5 ROM.
And I need to buy a New Phone But I am Very Confused With Which Phone to Buy under 15K.
Since I have Several Options are Available such as Redmi Note 5 Pro, Asus ZenFone Max M1, Realme 1, Redmi Note 5.
So Please Help me Out by suggesting, Which Phone to Buy. Since I need a Phone for Long Term Usage which should also support Rooting and Custom Roms.Performance and Battery Life is also a Concern.
I had a nitro too,
Redmi note 5 pro ,no questions asked.

If you're not concerned about a above average camera and a slower fp scanner (as compared to Redmi Note 5 Pro) then go for this device.That 5000 mAh battery isn't a joke.In terms of custom ROM development both Note 5 Pro and Max Pro are good so you don't need to worry about that.However I consider this device to survive longer as compared to its counterparts because Asus is promising updates to Android Q which means we'd most likely get kernel sources for Android Q which would be awesome for a nearly 1 year old device at that time.
Hey guys! Just a lil query, can we expect One UI for the Zenfone Max Pro M1? Redmi Note 5 pro and OnePlus 6 has received a port, not the most stable port but nonetheless. So can we expect one ui for our phone too? After using One UI on the S9+ and S8+ , I'm kinda liking it ?

No offense but the port will never be as fluid as using it in a Samsung Device (I think you already know this) so it's best to buy an old Samsung device. Coming to your question, yes we will get the port atleast as GSI in the coming days. I'm no developer but I'm sure we'll get one. :laugh:
Is there any way to install Ubuntu Touch on Redmi Note 6 Pro? I saw they made a port for the Redmi Note 7
Never heard of, but glad if someone port it to. I can test it and help a little on the coding.
I have used the Redmi Note 4 Snapdragon (mido) for more than 3 years now. And I have to say that the journey has been amazing. The legendary device always amazes me by its outstanding developer front. In this journey, i have found many rock-stable Custom roms, god-level gcams (that click pictures even now that are much better than the redmi note 8 pro in some cases), outstanding Kernels, etc.
But now I am thinking of buying a new device. And due to mido, my expectations with the new device regarding development are pretty high.
Please suggest me what device I should go with, which has legendary development like our beloved note 4.
I heard that Poco F1 is legendary too. Please give your opinions.
And though I know that Pixel and OnePlus devices are legendary in development, I am not that rich to buy these phones (not even second hand, lol ). My preferred brand is xiaomi (redmi or poco).
Thanks.

It really depends on your budget and what you use your phone for

Redmi Note phones have different names and different hardware depending on where you live.
Redmi Note 9 Pro in India is the same phone as Redmi Note 9 in Europe. Xiaomi makes it really difficult for customers sometimes.
About your list, never buy a phone with Mediatek / Helio chipset. These phones never receive any support from devs. Just take a look how many Roms we have for Mido (Redmi Note 4 with Qualcomm Snapdragon) and how little for Nikel (Redmi Note 4 with Mediatek).
Redmi Note 9 Pro is the newest and has already customs ROMs available, so I personally would go for that one. The only downside of the phone could be that the screen is very very big.
Redmi Note 8 or 7 aren't that much cheaper but have older hardware.
Poco F1 is also rather old already and not a good deal anymore.
Or wait a few weeks for Mi A4. It runs pure Android One which means it will receive at least 3 years of security updates and 2 years of Android updates (Android 11 and 12 for sure). So there is no need for custom ROMs.
Thanks a lot.
