  • Was a good smartphone for the price range but last update kill it.

    When I bought this smartphone in 2020 for the price was a good equipment but the few updates Xiaomi release for it had killed the smartphone. The battery start running out very quickly, now passed 3 and half years from the moment I bought it and the battery barely hangs for a half a day. The smartphone is constantly crashing the applications and in some cases the UI, meaning periods of freezing that can reach to 4 or 5 mins. And sometimes it restarts by its own when it cannot recover from the freezing. Wi-Fi sometimes disconnects by itself.
    The fact to have a short storage doesn't also contribute for the good health of the smartphone in a time that the applications are each time bigger.
    In general, was a very good smartphone for the price, but I can say the last OS update 2 years ago +/- killed it for good.
    I'm looking for a new one, because I already had problems at an airport to show my ticket…smartphone had frozen in that precise moment, what a lucky mine. :-|

    Pros
    • Good relation price/quality

    Cons
    • Battery, the 4000mAh its not enough
    • Connectivty, GPS and Wi-fi some don't work well
    • OS looks heavy for the hardware

  • Just another bang-for-the-bucks Redmi

    Let's be real here - at this price point no one should expect anything more than a so-so experience with below to average marks in everything. Have been using it for the last 4 years, and it's pretty laggy if all the MIUI bloats aren't removed, which definitely shows its age. Still useable though, the Snapdragon 665 cannot punch above its weight, but light usage is handleable. A phone this cheap should not have a glass back, but there's one anyway, and this decision baffles me - why includes a glass back if it doesn't need one, especially without wireless charging? Audio and screen are definitely sub-par, same for charging. The main camera is usable, the rest of them are definitely fillers. Still, for this price, I did not regret my decision buying this device.

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
