Hi there,
The Xiaomi Mi Note Pro has been out for a year now. Has anyone any info on an upgraded or new version?
I'm looking for a 5.7 device and really like this, but (knowing my luck), I'll order and the next week Xiaomi will release info on a new model !
Thanks
do you want my opinion wait and see for one plus 3
I think asus zenfone 3 deluxe must be the mobile what you want, im waiting for it and some revew of zf 3 deluxe, sd820, 5.7" FHD 6RAM... sound so great
I would personally go with nexus 6p over the current mi note pro. As a previous amoled user, I find it the screen to be pretty dim on my MNP.
Unless you are happy with running miui, I would stay clear from this. Another thing, I should add, phone definitely heats up when running asop and early miui roms. I do not care what other user say but having the phone on charge and trying to talk to someone whilst putting the phone next to your years gets extremely hot and uncomfortable.
I would wait for one plus or even the nexus 6
PS: I'm running mokee rom.

There is a rumor that Mi Note 2 will be released mid-July, together with the Xiaomi laptop. The latest news on it: http://mobile.it168.com/a2016/0530/2672/000002672797.shtml
The specs are supposedly: SD823 (MSM8996 Pro), 4/6 GB RAM, 32-256 GB ROM, Sony IMX378 sensor, 12 Mpx camera with laser autofocus, screen resolution and size same as the predecessor, iris recognition. Pricing is supposed to start at 3299 CNY for the cheapest version.
Mi Note Pro still a very good phone except perhaps for camera

I also have both, Mi Note Pro and Nexus 6p. Nexus 6p is a little bit faster (probably because of stock android) and has a better camera, but overall i still prefer the Mi Note pro. The 6p is thicker, heavier and bulkier and the sound quality on it (which is very important to me) is complete ****, while on the Note pro the sound is absolutely brilliant (over headphones of course, speakers are better on 6p). Screen is a little brighter on the 6p, but they`re both too dark in sunny weather for me. I also love MIUI, did even install a MIUI launcher on my 6p . I think it comes down to preferences. Both are great devices, but there`s one major downside to the Note Pro, which is the battery life.

An event is planned this month... there are rumors of a new flagship.
mipro is a good phone except the software sucks (both miui and unoficial roms). for exemple semi-official (i believe he is a miui developper) ivan aosp rom 6.0.1 is using april security patchs lol and no updates... and others roms are worst and bugged. yea i would take the 6p only because of the software part, i have bought 3 phones from xiaomi and it's the LAST TIME.
It's been 6 months I am using Galaxy Note 8 now I wanna switch can anyone give some options no Galaxy S9 though please.
I was reading about LG G7 ThinQ looks nice.

Why do you want to change your note 8? What do you dislike about it? I would consider anything else except a note 9, as a downgrade
I dislike the battery.I absolutely hate the speaker.It's shameful for a device of this price.I also dislike the slow updates but that is a Samsung issue overall.Touchwiz launcher is horrible but that's an easy fix.All that being said nobody makes as good of a screen as samsung,I adore the camera and the s-pen is an absolute delight.I don't know about upgrading to the note 9 simply because that'd be a net loss of 500$ for only 6 months of usage on my note 8 but I'm positive I'll be getting the S10/Note 10
I think, there are more then enough people who needs every 6 month a new device.
I don't know why.
Don't be afraid to hit the "Thanks" button if someone helped you. It don't hurts

Nothing as such I just wanna change I am hating its curve screen which has no use at all and not a single screen protector fix on it (tried 4 so far)
I like OP6 but then its camera is not as good as Note 8 camera is, secondly it has no HDR for Netflix and Amazon and its vibrations are so so weird!!
I like LG G7 ThinQ though havent tried it yet!

You will probably have a difficult time with that question in this forum since we're here because we like/love the Note series of phones. With that being said I don't disagree with the speaker part, I'm hoping the Note 9 will have stereo speakers, preferably more robust speakers to boot.
You need to get a full screen adhersion screen protector. They can be found pretty easily you just need to look for them. But I would stick with the Note 8 as it is a very good device and will probably last you for a good few years.

Yeah still its so irritating and annoying at times saw HTC U12+ really impressed with the over all feel of the phone and the camera has outstanding results, might go for it I guess!

I would only consider the Pixel 2 or 3 (if you can wait for it to come out).

Google will never release a Dual Sim variant and that sucks [emoji43]

The LG G7 and HTC U12 won't have any better battery life compared to Note 8. PIxel 2 XL would be an option. Huawei Mate 10 Pro or P20 Pro is another option. Note 9 is around the corner with 4000 mah battery which should help
Bought OnePlus 6 Mirror Black 128gb (Black Mirror is so sexy its dope, OnePlus did an amazing job), its amazing freaking fast, smooth, the gestures are nice as well. I love the full screen display with notch though so many people don't like it, you can't compare the camera with Note 8 one's but its not that bad seriously and with Gcam the pictures comes really nice.
Over all experience is so satisfying, I don't miss Note 8 at all :good:

If I were you, I would go probably for the Huawei P20 Pro.
I get puzzled by such threads? The Note series is unique as a mobile phone experience.
The S-pen is whats makes the Note, the Note. If one doesn't need or use the S-pen I cant imagine why one would purchase a Note series mobile? To that end there are no options or other choices to the SG Note 8 until the Note 9 is released shortly.
If the S-pen is not of primary use then there are numerous other mobile phones to explore.
One thing is a certainty in the mobile world, no phone will please all users. That is why there is a plethora of choices. Every mobile made has its positives also negatives, its all a question of needs and usage prioritise.
I need and use the S-pen, it makes my mobile a pocket PC.
If I didn't need the S-pen I would look at mobiles with my second priority and that is good DAC and sound quality. Some prioritise the camera or screen size, the list is endless.
Ryland
so true, Ryland; plus, why do people thing anyone cares about why they hate a particular phone?
If you hate the note 8, get rid of it and get something else; no one here cares to hear your sob story about why its so awful..
BTW, even though I have had several Note phones, start with the first one, I rarely use the Spen at this point in my life; I like them for their size, their screen, and the "extras" that samsung includes in their phones...Sure, the sound sucks, but there are endless BT/Wired/Wireless speakers and head sets that make that point moot. Battery life is no issue, with wireless charging, and most of the other complaints are just silly ..
anyways, lets hope that people who dont like this phone just get rid of it, and move on, without giving us endless posts about why they hate/hated/got rid of it..no one cares!!!

I had an LG G7 ThinQ for 2-3 days, couldn't stand the UI and is on the small side for me compared to the Note 8. G7 is not slow just different when you use all these phones. Ended up giving it to my Granddaughter after 3 days.
Probably a Note 9 or an iPhone X plus
The note 8's battery is as trash as the Note 5's.
Hello guys ,
So i was currently thinking of upgrading my oneplus 3
But i couldn't settle on a certain phone , the only 2 phones in my mind would be the oneplus 7 pro and Samsung galaxy s10 plus since both cost the same where i live , let me know what you think guys
I am going to wait for the Pixel 4 and then make a decision..
I would choose the 7 Pro over the S10 Plus for its VFM and screen!
The s10's price is diving so you may be able to pick up a bargain. Depends on your criteria.
Sent from my GM1913 using Tapatalk
Currently using the 3T and will be upgrading to the s10 plus. I'm just waiting for the price of the s10 plus to dip a bit further down. Personally I think the s10 plus is more equipped with features and well rounded.

Ordered the Oneplus 7 pro (Almond colour) 8/256, will arrive tomorrow. Very excited.
But will still keep my OP3 with me for as long as it lives.

The S10 plus is a really great phone but i keep getting pulled away due to the below points
1. Touch wiz and the history of updates
2. Developer community always better on one plus devices
3. The notchless screen on the oneplus 7 pro makes it look much appealing the s10 plus screen .

Congrats , let us know what you think when you receive it
I get your point. Samsung is refining oneui to bring it closer to stock android and is increasing update supports for it's flagships, according to latest reports and that's good enough for me.
Oneplus phones surely has more community support, but nowadays phones with stock roms has got so much better that the idea of installing custom roms is becoming less tempting.
The 7 Pro may look more appealing because of it's all screen design, but I still have some reservations about the pop up camera with regards to how long it will remain functional as a moving part.
I'm not trying to convince you as to why the s10 plus is a better phone then the 7 Pro because both phones are great in their own way, I'm just sharing my personal reason why I'm going to get the s10 plus as my next phone.

Personally I'm keeping my op3 as long as it's working and not struggling with doing anything. However of it were to die tomorrow I'd be looking at he op7 pro, the Xiaomi black shark 2, or the oppo Reno 10x zoom
Take a look at Xiaomi Mi 9
Zenfone 6 since it will officially receive lineage os. I don't like the size of the phone and just 18W charging but it has the greatest battery life.
If the s10e becomes cheaper and receives lineage os, I'll gladly opt for it.
Wait for the Pixel 4

The pixel devices are always highly priced
I'm looking for a mate 20 pro, I'm waiting for huawei/trump fight to end (I don't want to buy a phone that is not going to have android Q).
Also I'm a little bit annoyed to not be able to unlock bootloader.
But mate 20 pro is what I want, great camera and battery

You have the budget for the S10, so I don't see why you can't buy the Pixel
Right now in India, the smaller pixel 3 is priced lower than the s10. I don't know how much it is in your country.
Pretty sure the smaller pixel 4 variant will be around the same price range.
I sure as hell won't buy a device with a notch and no headphone jack. I am at minority here but those are my requirements for now.
Redmi K20 Pro and Zenfone 6Z are top contenders for my money (I don't want to go back to IPS LCD but might have to). OnePlus phones are naturally out because they decided to "follow trend" and removed headphone jack. OP3 is working fine for my usage and i don't need the best camera, an average camera will do for me so no appeal of Pixel 4 to me at all. So for now, yeah, not many options, K20 pro is choice 1, zenfone 6z being 2nd.
I'm thinking about OP6 as it's the last OP with headphone Jack and notification LED. I know the notch isn't great but for me, small notch + OLED > LCD.
OP7, not the pro version because I definitely do not want a phone with moving parts. No Samsung, I have nothing with the brand...
But as others said before, will keep using my OP3T as long as possible. Fast, two days of battery life, great camera and straight forward; still did not find a good reason for making a switch. ..
I'd buy an iPhone, currently using oneplus 3, lasted for 2years. Still snappy with good battery backup.
Hi, I'd like to ask which cell phone is better for you. My priority is a camera and a display. In the moment I have a nexus 6p and I get between these two, costing about 350 eu
You can go with Pixel 2Xl. Pixel camera is incredible none of the smartphone can compare to that.

I was thinking about getting the one plus seven pro. I'm on PixelXL 2 and was debating should I spend the money? Also pixel XL 4 is $200 off. I believe the one plus is built better but was trying to make a decision. Just thought I'd share and see if anyone cared to share their opinion. Thanks

You will not regret it. Once u get the 90Hz display it will be hard to go back to 60Hz.
Get the badboy 1+7Pro for the win! Cheers

i have the og pixel xl, so i'm in a similar situation as you. my pixel has been more sluggish and the battery has been draining faster. it's almost 3 years old. i only upgrade when i need to and it's about time, so i took advantage of the deal. these are my thoughts and conclusions i came to after my research. i am in no way an expert on the oneplus 7 pro. i don't even have the phone yet! :laugh:
i've admired oneplus ever since they came on the scene and have recommended their phones before. i probably would have gotten one earlier if verizon supported them. what sold me on the oneplus 7 pro vs. the google pixel 4 xl is what you get for the price. even with google's $200 deal, the pixel 4 xl with 64gb of storage and 6gb of ram is $699. at $549, the 7 pro gets you 256gb of storage and 8gb of ram. the 7 pro also has a bigger battery(4000mah vs 3700mah). both phones have the same cpu and gpu(snapdragon 855 and adreno 640).
both phones have 90hz displays, but the pixel 4 xl has had issues with 90hz support since launch. the display will run at 90hz at certain brightness settings. it looks like google improved things with their november update but i think they're going to be tweaking it for a while. on the other hand, it looks like oneplus did a better job supporting 90hz and there are hacks/mods to enable 90hz all the time.
bootloader unlock and rooting are important to me too. that's why we use android and get phones like these right? that's easily done on either phone. well, the google version of the pixel, not the verizon one.
the pixel has better cameras, but those aren't important to me. i hardly take pictures and i know my nephew is going to get a kick out of the 7 pro's pop up selfie cam.
i just ordered the 7 pro, so i have zero experience with the phone. this was my thought process to choose the 7 pro vs the pixel. i hope it helps.

I ordered one on Black Friday as well. Have you already received your phone? My order indicates shipping date of 12/13 with 12/18 as being the delivery date. Just curious if you got something similar.
