Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 China (MIUI & GCAM) vs Samsung S9+ - Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro Guides, News, & Discussion

Went to a shop today to compare a $200 device against Samsung's best.
Here are the results. It's basically a Samsung vs Samsung, due to the samsung camera module in china version of note 5.
MIUI is quite good, but gcam is better at removing noise

Noticeable difference comparing to MIUI, do you have any tutorials how to install Gcam on redmi note5? Also does installing it/rooting really not void your warranty?

[Unboxing] Redmi Note 3 Pro

I just got my new Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 Pro, 32gb ROM and 32gb RAM.
I ordered it from a store I had never tried SpeMall , but think I'll be using it again!
"fast delivery" and no customs problems. Was also able to add a 2 year warranty in Spain, a commodity not usually found at this price range in Europe.
The phone left some very good first impressions. If you have any questions feel free to ask .

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 China (MIUI & GCAM) vs Huawei P20 Pro

Huawei has a bigger 1/1.7" sensor, optical image stabilization and so called Leica lens. Doesn't seem to make much of a difference

The real difference would be in extreme low light conditions, P20 has better camera sensors to help in those conditions. I've seen several low light pics in reviews, it is really good. Our device is no slouch either though it falls a little back in low light conditions.
Honestly I wouldn't be bothered to spend a money on flagships when mid rangers are pretty much capable.
Can u share the link from the gcam version?

Update 10.3.7.0 for Redmi note 7 pro

Observed these 2 very UNFORTUNATE major disadvantages:
1)
Saturation

Contrast
settings in Camera is removed.

A big degradation. The default camera colors aren't live or properly vivid enough so Saturation mode was very necessary.
Wonder why does Xiomi keeps f**ukcing with very essential settings.
2)
Previously If we ran the Default camera app and then Gcam in background, shifting back to stock camera never used to freeze it.
Now I have to exit close both the cams and cannot run both simultaneously in the background as only Gcam works properly and stock cam freezes.
Already tried clear data/cache for stock camera its useless.
Now have to search for a compatible GCam for this update. If anyone has do share the link or apk.

Question Confusion between peux and veux custom roms

I am trying to install a custom rom on my Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G (preferably one that resembles stock android the most). I have been looking at pixel experience and arrow os. Both of them mention Redmi Note 11 Pro+ 5G but both also mention veux. On the device info app on my phone, the device is peux but board is veux (screenshot). If I install the pixel experience veux rom, will this brick my device? I cannot find any rom that is specific for peux.

As far as I know, they develop rom mentioning Poco x4 pro/Redmi note 11 pro+. So I think you can flash rom which are veux..why don't give a try?. If anything happens get back to stock rom using miflashtool. Its so easy.
