Note: this is not a review.
3 years of security updates for 500€ is just not enough. Cool if its repairable but I’d prefer a phone with more updates than a repairable one.
This one has 3 cameras. 1 108MP main camera, 13MP ultra wide, 50MP 2x telephoto. The battery is small at 4600mah but supports 15w qi2 magnetic wireless charging and slow 33w wired charging. Display supports 144hz refresh rate.
Snapdragon 7s gen 2 may not be fast alongside the 33w charging. But, repairability takes front seat here with gen 2 repairability. Plus, unlike most smartphones actually supports an sdcard. Unfortunately, updates take a back seat with 3 years max.
IMO a good repairable smartphone with some compromises mainly the processor and the software update support.
I don’t see how this has any resemblance to the n9 though, kind of weird to pick that phone to compare it to.
Really? I think they share a lot of resemblance.
Flat top/bottom, curved sides, extremely N9-like corners, coloured body of the phone being visible on the front, even the colour lines up with a couple of N9 colour options.
Yeah, a lumia would’ve been a better comparison.
You never can have both, a fast SoC that will be performing well in 5 years and repairability.
Why not? Anything at dimensity 8300/Snapdragon 7+gen 2, or higher should last for 5 years without issue.
I don’t know about the phone but I love her nails.
JFC those nails why
the battery itself is $25
Kinda steep considering a 3rd party store in Singapore charges a similar amount including labour for a battery replacement for a old redmi note 7.
Except for that the Redmi N7 has a smaller and older battery, and that that stock “has to go” so they are not going to charge much anyways. Plus you probably get an OEM battery and not the original, which may mean worse capacity/quality or just cheaper in general because “it’s not original”
