thats china rn4. most users get global version sd 625.
haha it's the first and most powerful rmn4 though. I view it as the definitive rmn4.

the 625 version appears to me to simply be a watered down version.

yes it does

mtk helio x20 version heats up easily

usually when i'm playing 3d games like sonic forces speed battle, it gets hot and laggy (presumably throttling) by my 3rd or 4th match, about 6-8 mins in

Yeah, that one heats up like the old Snapdragon 800. The Snapdragon 625 on the other hand is cool all the way. The Max 2 is very good for gaming for it's size, battery life and SD 625.

The Note 5 Pro is also very good if you prefer 18:9.

nope. no heating issues like rmn4 mtk heliox20
Thanks for the advice. This will be valid reason for me to change from RMN4 to RMN5. When I play the game battle bay, after a few minutes the phone can warm up quite a bit to around 41°c...

Anyone using LineageOS? It is better than Miui?

I'm using LineageOS for some of my Xiaomi and Samsung phones. It's got zero bloat :s13:.

The stock MIUI still has some bloat but much better than Samsung.

I hope you realize it says ships in 30 days.
I prefer to pay a bit more for a reputable seller. Shoppe has a lot of dubious sellers peddling fake goods like memory cards. And from what I see, only has 19 products on sale and hardly any reviews not to mention must wait up to 30 days to ship out.

High 5 bro. $279?
Although it was sealed.
Play store was already installed.
Obviously they have the sealing machine in their shop. It's definitely not brand new for those curious. But it looks just fine to me.
