I'm thinking of getting the Redmi Note 6 Pro (64gb) for my mum.. the price is quite gd at the Mi Store.. how much is the Note 7?

note 6 3/32 $159
note 6 4/64 $199
note 7 3/32 $16x (export)
note 7 4/64 $203 (export)

i think note 8 coming out soon, if it true.... note 7 may drop price during clearance sales.

note 7
- Better camera
- more energy efficiency cpu ~ snapdragon 660
- faster charging by a bit. 18 Watts
- type c
- Corning Gorilla Glass 5
- waterdrop front camera design.
Ugly Notch > waterdrop > punch hole > pop-up > under-screen


microUSB 2.0 is slowly phrasing out from the market, so i wouldn't recommend. But if u diedie need local warranty...then note 6.

Ya i noticed the price of note 7 really has dropped a lot.. maybe i should not buy Note 6 Pro le..

i thought xiaomi stopped making note, so 7 is the last one

No.. they stopped making Mi Note series.. Redmi Note series still lives on.. did i get that right?

If you are fine with export sets then Note 7 can consider. Note 7 local set prices are still high. Otherwise Note 6 Pro is at a very attractive price for local set now. Note 7 upgrades over Note 5/6 I wouldn't say it a huge step forward. So sticking to Note 6 Pro with assurance of local warranty is good enough. My two cents though.

cheapest i have seen so far. Good for elderly, big text,loud speaker, long battery per charge. sadly no mm 4 :(:(:(
But check with ur mum whether she like bulky phone anot.

jtbc is decent... although i also encounter some hiccups with them, no1 can beat their price.... the boss & their staff are pretty friendly and polite, still offer me drink :D

if u re those can't wait or high expectation ones....better don't buy from jtbc.... my 2cents...

Saw on Mi Max 3 thread, someone just had a bad experience with JTBC getting Mi Max 3. Still best to avoid them.
