Hey
I wanted to buy a redmi note 3
but I've found many products which are confusing, between redmi note 3 and redmi not 3 pro
some comes with 5 inch screen with 720P, some come with 5.5 1080p
and I've seen some websites sell the 5.5 inch, 3GB RAM, 32GB internal memory with snapdragon processor as "Xiaomi redmi note 3"
like this website
and others sell the same as "Xiaomi redmi note 3 Pro"
like this website
so which is the better and which is safer to buy?
I think you need buy redmi pro.If you want Xiaomi,you can buy Xiaomi 5
The snapdragon version is called Pro in some countries. Note 3 is always 5.5 inches. My recommendation is to go for 3GB/32GB Pro. Personally I had to settle with 2GB model due to 3GB not available in my region.

Thank you
I've already bought the snapdragon 3GB/32GB, but there is a 5" version
The sad part is when I ordered the phone, before I've received it Xiaomi announced the note 4 with same price or even slightly lower

Seems to me you got yourself a Redmi 3 Pro instead. In any case, it will be awhile before Redmi note 4 starts to become more widely available. So enjoy what you have for now [emoji4]

Hi all, I'm considering buying redmi note 3 pro(3gb/32gb) or MI note bamboo(3gb/16gb) for usd 40 less. I used my phone mostly for work and Web browsing, anyone with both devices please give your opinions. Thanks.

redmi note 3 pro - it's newer, better hardware, snapdragon 650 (6 cores, gpu adreno 510 @ 600mhz, 64bit, better mobile support, 16mp camera, bigger battery - 4000 mah)
though don't get me wrong the snapdragon 801 that's in the MI note bamboo is nice but that cpu pretty outdated now, it's only 32bit, 4 cores, gpu adreno 330 @ 400mhz - and that cpu is a power hog, so I doubt a 3000mah battery would last long with that processor, it's known to run hot and be power hungry. -
I also have a device with the snapdragon 800, I can say the snapdragon 650 in the rn3p gives a much smoother web-browsing experience.
Snapdragon 801

Thank you for your elaborate answer, really appreciated.
Hi everyone
I am looking to upgrade my secondary device and I can not decided between if I should order a Redmi 3s Prime now and it would be with me by mid November or should I wait for Redmi 4?
Now there are factors which can affect the decision and I am sure many of you might be in similar situation as well. I like to game a little on my device mostly FPS online like Nova or MC4. I do not play any other game and I plan to stick with these games as well. I can run these on 1gb and Sd410 with some frame drops.
REDMI 4
The redmi 4 was leaked around late August and Gsmarena tipped it to be with Snapdragon 625 and 1080 HD display. However it is NOT officially released yet.
Complete specifications can be looked here :
http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_4-8263.php
if we talk about generally, the advantages of redmi 4 over 3s,
more support
rom development
better performance
moving to nougat before redmi 3s which might stay at marshmallow.
Different design with a curve which may help in grip as 3s is slippery
HD display 1080 vs 720
If we look at 430 vs 625, we see there is no comparision between the two. 625 is a clear winner in all aspects
These are strong points out of which only the snapdragon 625 attracts me more.
Why to go for 625 ?
Smaller size Soc 14nm vs 28nm on redmi 3s prime which translate to 30-35% more user friendly
Higher clock speed: 2ghz speed vs 1.4 so better gaming and performance
Big Little Technology : It utilises faster cores when gaming and slower cores while reading/emails/browsing to safe additional battery
Better modem : X9 vs X6
Now the only issue is WHEN it will be available as I am looking to get a device by Christmas.
Now the problems waiting for Redmi 4
Not announced at all and no clue when it may happen
After availability, it will take some time to be available on distributers and it will take time
be expensive as it is not available in Europe and initially new devices are expensive
May need to wait long
maybe 1080 eats more battery and thus Redmi 3s wins in better battery performance
Now what will you guys do in this situation ??
I want your opinion and REASONS why ?
I think the Redmi 4 has the Mediatek Helios chipset or is that just the Note?. If it has, it probably still has poor gps and power consumption as with all their past chipsets. The Qualcomm chipsets win hands down...

I actually posted it when redmi 4 wasn't announced. Now it's a clear choice. REDMI4 prime
I bought the new redmi 4, last week, in alegrecompra.com. I'm waiting to received it. you can also find it in http://www.gearbest.com/cell-phones/pp_563921.html?wid=21.
This is much better than redmi 3s .
I hope the cyanogemod is working as soon as posible in a room for this mobile phone
In my case, i prefer wait for redmi 4, but 3s is more popular in índia, and when xiaomi publish your kernel sources, 3s is gone receive much custom ROMs, and redmi 4 dont, because xiaomi is too slow to publish kernel sources, but redmi 4 is more beatiful too... If i have money to redmi 4 and 4 prime, i choose the 4 prime... I'm thinking to move from R4Prime, but i will wait for kernel sources and choose.
I use the Redmi 4 Prime for 4 Days now, and it's FANTASTIC, battery life is way better than Redmi 3S
Can't wait for the Redmi 4 section here at XDA and some developers to get their hands on
Is the design of the sim carrier any better on the 4 than it is on the 3?. The 3 has a poor design which means that you can only use one sim if you want to use a microsd card at the same time. I have an Elephone which has a dual sim and microsd carrier. This is the same size as the redmi 3 design but allows both sims and the microsd to be used simultaneously.

Sorry, your reply is not clear.
Do you mean the same design as the Redmi 3 pro/s? I.E, you can't use both sims and a microsd card at the same time?

Yep.. It's a hybrid slot like the Redmi 3 Pro/S Note 3 Pro...
Use 2 SIMs or one SIM and one MicroSD

Thanks. For me then ,the upgrade isn't worth it...
How can u compare between the Honor 5C vs Redmi Note 3? Basically the much talk about is the processors of both the devices. So, how is Kirin 650 compared with Snapdragon 650? Though in Antutu benchmark Kirin 650 loses badly to Snapdragon 650. So the point is how both the devices perform in day to day life.

go for redmi, better 3rd party rom support, multiple youtube reviews on the redmi explaining the benefits
Redmi Note 3 hands down.
Development wise redmi note 3 is best. How about performace? Btw i own a honor 5c nd quite happy with it but not with the development.

Performance varies on many levels. For example, phone X running with SDxxx processor in AOSP can perform better than phone Y with the same processor in EMUI.
i would still go with note 3 if the performance is slightly worse, as it supports lots of roms. and games performance is better on snapdragons
Hello everybody
I'm still using my Samsung Galaxy S5 but it's gotten too slow.
So I want a new phone. Not sure whether Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 or Redmi Note 5 Pro.
I did a comparison:
Chipset
S5: Qualcomm MSM8974AC Snapdragon 80, Quad-core 2.5 GHz Krait 400,Adreno 330
Redmi Note 4: Qualcomm MSM8953 Snapdragon 625, Octa-core 2.0 GHz Cortex-A53, Adreno 506
Redmi Note 5 Pro : Qualcomm SDM636 Snapdragon 636, Octa-core 1.8 GHz Kryo 260, Adreno 509
Why would anyone buy the Redmi Note 5 Pro with a slower CPU clock speed? Does the Kryo 260 have some other features which make it faster in the end? I couldn't find many details googeling for both of the CPUs.
Your advice is appreciated.
Have a nice day
SD636 scores higher in benchmarks and has better GPU
Snap 636 is quite far better than Snap 801/805 and Snap 625. We can also overclock it and still keep good battery life
