The best xiaomi smartphone under 15,000 rubles
Having carefully studied the parameters of gadgets and consumer reviews, such models got into our rating.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro
Having been on the market for a relatively short time, this model managed to achieve overwhelming success. 91 percent of users recommend it for purchase.
The model is based on Xiaomi Redmi Note 5. It is equipped with a bezel-less screen with a diagonal of 6.25 and a resolution of 2280 * 1080 pixels, the operating system Android 8.1. There is 4 GB of RAM and 64 GB of storage. You can put a 256 GB flash drive, but its slot is combined with a SIM card, which does not suit everyone. The gadget is powered by an eight-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor. The rear panel houses a fingerprint scanner. The battery is quite capacious - 4000 mAh. NFC chip is missing.
Two main camera modules - 12 Mp + aperture f / 1.9 and 5 Mp + aperture f / 2.0. The front camera is also double - 20 + 2 Mp, so selfie lovers should be satisfied.
What is the difference between the 6th generation and the 5th? The newbie has a more modern design. It is made in the already classic frameless form with "bangs", which allowed increasing the size (from 5.99 to 6.25) and screen resolution. The cameras were also "updated": the fifth generation had a 13 megapixel front camera with one module, the sixth generation had a double one and had a higher resolution. The battery capacity and processor were not changed.
The model receives many A's from users because:
- works for a long time on one charge;
- has good performance, including gaming;
- has a wide range of brightness settings;
- has good cameras.
The disadvantages include a protruding camera, the absence of an NFC chip, a combined lot for a SIM card and a flash drive.
Mi A2
The model is characterized by increased power. Its functionality is provided by the Snapdragon 660 platform, so it won't be difficult for it to launch modern high-graphics toys.
Another feature of the Mi A * line is the "naked" android. If you are unhappy with the branded shell of the brand, you have no alternative. Google is actively promoting its brainchild Android One, therefore, as compensation, it offers a voluminous "cloud" for storing all important materials (with a little compression). Indeed, this offer is very tempting. Especially considering the fact that the Mi A2 shoots good videos. And in the hands of an experienced user-operator, the model generally demonstrates miracles.
Another nuance is the inability to use a flash drive, and 64 GB of internal memory is actually not very much. The only drawback is the lack of a contactless payment option for purchases.
Also, some users are outraged by the lack of a headphone jack and the bulge of the camera.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 7
According to consumers, this phone is considered the best in the line of smartphones under 15,000 rubles. Presenting it, the manufacturer stated that Redmi has already become a separate brand.The gadget turned out to be very successful, which confirms its popularity and reviews from happy owners.
The back cover is made of Gorilla Glass 5. The 6.3-inch display with a resolution of 2340 * 1080 is made using IPS technology. Powered by a Snapdragon 660 processor. The amount of RAM - 4/6 GB, built-in - 32/64 GB. The main camera has a resolution of 48 megapixels, with an aperture of f / 1.8 and a 5 megapixel depth sensor. Front camera - 13 megapixels and f / 2.2. The battery capacity is 4000 mAh, the QC 4.0 fast charging option is provided, there is USB Type-C.
A good smartphone at a relatively low price. The only drawback is the lack of an NFC chip. But this is more likely not a minus, but a characteristic feature for Xiaomi phones in this price range.
The main difference between the model is a 48 megapixel camera with a quad Bayer filter. Due to this, it simultaneously captures 1 color on 4 neighboring pixels. As a result, a 1.6 μm pixel appears on the matrix. The resulting image is of high quality and virtually no noise.
Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite
Even a lightweight flagship is considered a powerful device for playing serious toys. Parallel to this, the model has a very nice appearance and the manufacturer positions it as an advanced gadget for taking selfies. In principle, there is some truth in this: the presence of a large pixel (1.8 microns), more than 100 thousand kinds of beautification, high-quality HDR mode, and all this at f / 2.2 aperture. In fact, this model has average photographic capabilities.
The disadvantages of the gadget include the lack of an NFC chip, IrDA, remote control and an adequately functioning GCam assembly. It is also unclear why they removed the classic headphone jack and combined the tray for a SIM card and a flash drive.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 5A Prime
It is an improved model from the lightweight line (this is confirmed by the prefix A) of the middle class Redmi Note phones. The smartphone has a modern hardware platform that caters to selfie lovers. A distinctive feature of the model is the presence of a well-thought-out flash on the front. It turns on together with the camera and stays on all the time, allowing you to assess in advance the correctness of the face lighting. The quality of the images taken is controversial, but quite normal for such budget smartphones.
In addition to the flash on the front, the model pleases with good amounts of memory, separate slots for SIM cards and memory cards, and good work in the 4G network.
Disadvantages include poor audio quality, single-band Wi-Fi, and lack of backlit hardware buttons.
Redmi note 5
The model can be called a reference. The platform has good performance. It will reproduce the most difficult game on the average chart. The main camera produces high-quality images that are not obtained with other Xiaomi models in this price range. And this is without much effort on the part of the user. But if you are not too lazy to upgrade the software a little, the capabilities of the camera increase dramatically.
For the Redmi Note line, good battery autonomy has become something familiar and in the fifth generation this tradition is not violated. For example, a gadget can produce HD video at maximum display brightness for 10 hours.
If you decide to buy this model, take a close look at the display. When creating it, 4 types of matrix are used, one of which is faded.
The smartphone has good performance, quality cameras and good battery life. The disadvantages include the low brightness of the notification indicator and the inability to simultaneously use a USB flash drive and 2 SIM cards.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4X 64Gb + 4Gb
When creating the gadget, they used a different hardware platform - Helio X20. Unlike the usual Snapdragon 625, it is more productive, but heats up more. Considering the fact that Xiaomi smartphones are very popular among gamers, the X version will be better than the usual ones. Advanced users will appreciate the Adreno graphics chip.
The smartphone does not support Band 20, it does not have an NFC module. Instead, it is equipped with an infrared port for controlling household appliances.
Users appreciate this smartphone for its good performance, large amount of RAM and internal memory, and sufficient battery life.
Customer Reviews
Xiaomi Redmi Note 6 Pro is a great smartphone for this amount. It has a good looks, solid build, really cool cameras and just superb performance. All my games just fly. Even after many hours of continuous use, the eyes do not get tired. The battery holds up well too. I chose this phone for a long time, something was constantly stopping. But I have been using it for five months now and have never regretted it.
Nikolay
I chose between Mi 8 SE and Redmi Note 5. The first, of course, is a little better, but it also costs more. The Redmi Note 5 also has decent specs. One of the reasons why I bought it is the large battery capacity. In addition, Redmi Note 5 turned out to be very balanced for such a low amount. It works great, creates normal pictures and selfies, quickly loads various applications and pages on the Internet.
Alexandra
Before buying Xiaomi Mi 8 Lite, I used Iphone 4s and Samsung Galaxy. I must admit that the new gadget pleasantly surprised me. He has MIUI 10 - and this: cool ios design and android functionality, only much cooler. In addition, the phone is perfectly assembled, it holds the battery for a very long time (after the iPhone, this is just unrealistic autonomy for me). The camera is a little weak, but you can see everything you need. The sound from the speaker is loud and clear. Recommend.
