My Redmi Note 3.

I recently gotten myself a new phone, it's a Redmi Note 3. Previously I've been using Redmi Note, which is actually the first edition of my current phone! I've been using this phone for almost two weeks now and it has been performing really well so far. On a side note, I just realised I got my phone on the significant 29th Feb haha.

My Redmi Note has been a pretty great phone, there's hardly any "lags". I am mainly annoyed by one thing only about the phone, the camera. The camera claims to be a 13 & 5 megapixels for the rear and front camera respectively but it certainly didn't perform like how the megapixels should be performing like. Anyhow, i'm not an expert and I really don't know how megapixels and all work, i'm just describing them from my personal experience.

Problems I had with my Redmi Note was:
1) The screen goes off randomly, it would remain as a black screen even if I restart my phone, I can still power on the phone and swipe to unlock, I know, cause there's a sound to indicate the phone being unlocked, but the screen, is still off.

2) I cannot connect to the WiFi. It has been like that for a month, I had to survive on my limited data. It really wasn't pleasant and brought me tons of inconvenience. I end up dominating the iPad when i'm at home to use the WiFi and limit my phone to whatsapp and wechat only, my two main apps to stay connected.

Anyways, those are all history now.

the packaging of the phone, I must say, resembles iPhone a lot.
White rectangular box with coloured picture of the phone and name of the phone printed in black.

sad thing is, like any other Xiaomi phones, no earphones.
The phone I bought was an imported phone so the charger wasn't "Malaysian"
Luckily I have my old charger which I can use without needing to be troubled by the two pins.

kindly rotate your head because I know you need that little stretch for your neck
lolol i'm just lazy to rotate the photo.

New one on the top, old one on the bottom.

same applies to this photo.

see the iPhone resemblance again?

The phone comes in gray, silver and gold. I got the one in gray as the other two colours costs a little bit more. I would be putting a case anyways so the colour doesn't matter that much. Although I have to admit the gold one is quite pretty.

I am not gonna be talking about the specs about the phone because I might not be too accurate about that and i'm not a "specs" person. But I guess i can highlight a few things regarding the Redmi Note 3.

I really like the finger print sensor. It works really well and really fast, I am really impressed (so much reall-ies in a sentence haha). Other than that, I also find the metal body really attractive, giving it a really premium feel (again, with the reall-ies). The battery is also more long lasting and the camera is also much better compared to my previous Redmi Note.
