Yes. I am using that already on my Redmi Note 8 Pro now. Just that I don't use NFC, so I would prefer Dual SIM + microSD specs for the phone.

Since u got 8 pro liao no need think further
Just take 9s if u like it lor
No point buying same phone ma

Anyone change from mi max 3? Hows the screen compared.


Me! I was using Mi Max 3 and then switched to Redmi Note 8 Pro. After about few months, I have adjusted liao. The snappiness of the Redmi Note 8 Pro is good.

I am considering 2 options :

1. Change to Redmi Note 9S and pass the Redmi Note 8 Pro to my wife
2. Get another Redmi Note 8 Pro for my wife

Then now cheapest Xiaomi Redmi Note 8 Pro 6/128 with local warranty is at which website?

Shopee mall most decent liao
Wait for flash deal then use the $20/$30 off coupon found in electronics zone

So far 9S flash deal no discount
8 pro 128gb maybe tomorrow 12am flash deal will be $279

Hi all,

Is the Note 9s 64/4 the best bang for buck for $299 (Lazada official SG Mi store)?

Need to get a cheapish phone urgently to replace a broken phone. I would prefer to buy from a local vendor since it will be quicker delivery and for easier support.

Budget is $300. Won't be gaming and phone use is watching videos, Messenger video calls and web surfing.

https://shopee.sg/Xiaomi-Redmi-Note...on-Purchase-With-Gift--i.178877065.6020707398

got anot 1 mimistore...but not sure got local warranty anot

Eh not sure if the comparison but so far mine has been pretty smooth. No hiccups so far or anything that would bother me. Performance wise also no issue. A few things I'm not happy with but for its price, I can't complain but hope it can be fixed or implemented.

Still not a fan of MIUI though I can get used to it.

Try ask around to see if you can get local set for $249 cos if you pay for $299, I'd really rather you fork out a bit more for 6GB ram but if you can get it for $249 for the 4GB one then go for that within the $300 budget

Hi, can you recommend a local store with local stock at $249? Most of the cheaper prices are shipping from China.

I also see that Mimistore on Shopee has a Note 8 Pro 128/6 for $299 but this ships from overseas, and I need the phone immediately.

Xiaomi don't ship locally
Else you can see qoo10 and see which suits you

The 9S has been pretty good since my very first charge.
17hrs with 8hrs 20mins SOT with 25% left. That's with quite above average use with reinstalling my apps and configurating them back all with 4G on top of my instagramming and Facebooking.

A few issues so far though it could be me, one of which is acting as a Hotspot is kinda wonky, social media and surfing seems fine but when I play clash Royale on another phone, the connection is like keep dcing. Switch to my Galaxy S7 Edge as the Hotspot and it had no issues.

Think snapdragon is pretty good. Use for hours the phone only got a little warm and still pretty smooth.
Sot much better than 8pro :eek:
