Redmi 5A

[windwaver]

thanks guys. guess will pass 5A, price very tempting but think safer to stick to 3gb ram minimum.

If it's 3GB, I'll go for the Note 4x Snapdragon 625.

ya... had 2 of those in my family and so far so good. energy saving very tanky battery life-SOT. but since the 5 series out been thinking is it worth to topup abit or to go back to the N4X.

Note 5 Pro, if not Note 4x is still good.

There are export sets but I bought it at $97 (after discount, usual $129) from Xiaomi SG which is about the same price as an export set ($99).

What kind of discount? I am looking to buy a 5a myself as a purely wifi hotspot and some photo taking

Qoo10, lazada or shopee. All these platform can get discount 5A

It was Lazada anniversary sale. The 5A was going for $109 and I have a voucher ($12) that reduced it to $97. Pretty good phone after I got it flashed to LineageOS. Boots up with almost 1GB RAM.

Well i have of yet seen the specs and comparison. But its shouldn't be a downgrade? Right? If it is den won't it be making a huge loss?

better screen (hopefully), faster AND more efficient 12nm SOC.

no 3/32 version likely because its so close in price to the redmi 6, u might as well buy it.

The Helio A22 is more efficient than the Snapdragon 425, and also reportedly to have better performance than the Snapdragon 425 too.

same a53 cores but 2.0ghz instead of 1.4ghz,

12nm process instead of 28nm process.

its both more powerful and more efficient.
