Honestly
A surprise. This phone shouldn't produce photos that rival those from high-end handsets
But it does. Perhaps images aren't quite as sharp as those from the iPhone 6S or Samsung Galaxy S7
But they're damn close

The editors didn't like
I don't like the fact that Xiaomi
And other phone makers
Are moving to USB-C. Cables for this standard aren't that common yet
Which means you're going to have to buy new ones. In addition to that
It's not unheard of for cheap USB-C cables to blow phon
No waterproofing
No NFC
Low-resolution display
Dated Android version
720p display resolution
There's no microSD card slot like the Samsung Galaxy S7
The Redmi 5 continues to be on the same plank as its predecessor Redmi 4 with all-round performance with few improvements. The specifications are poised in the price bracket of Rs 7,999 which will get you bezel-less screen, ambient rear camera and suffici...
Abstract: The Redmi 5 is the replica of Redmi Note 5, which is a let down in terms of innovations and execution of creativity. The design of the phone will definitely appeal those who prefer big screens. The fingerprint sensor is placed below the camera which makes...
The Redmi 5 is definitely one of the more powerful and power-efficient offerings in the budget segment but the novelty of the phone is marred by Xiaomi itself thanks to the more powerful Redmi Note 5 at around the same price. The base variant of the phone...
and pricing in IndiaAll said and done, the Xiaomi Redmi 5 is the smartphone to beat in the entry-level segment. It can easily take down any other offering in the 'performance vs value for money' debate and now it even looks good.The problem with Redmi 5...
Bezel-less display, Good built quality, Decent performance
The Xiaomi Redmi 5 comes with a starting price tag of Rs 7,999. The smartphone definitely offers improvements when compared to the Redmi 4. The smartphone offers better display, design and camera, which makes it a good buy under this price segment. You wi...
Abstract: Display: The 5.7-inch display offers good viewing angle and sunlight legibility. I used the display at full-brightness for streaming videos and was pretty much satisfied with the colour reproduction. There are a host of display settings to fiddle around w...
Good build quality and sleek design, Brilliant battery life, Decent cameras
Only 282 PPI HD+ screen, Hybrid Dual SIM might not be preferred by everyone, Images by Siraj,
At a starting price of Rs. 7999, the Redmi 5 is good upgrade to last year's Redmi 4. It has a larger screen, faster SoC, better cameras, slim design and offers a brilliant battery life, but it has the same hybrid dual SIM slot, which most users looking fo...
The Xiaomi Redmi 5 is just an average device which fails to impress in Camera and Battery department. Also, at a time when the Android world is talking about Android 9.0, Redmi 5 is still based on Android 7.0. Our recommendation would be, to spend an extr...
Good build, Good display, Good performance, Good battery life
Archaic software, Cameras could be better
Xiaomi's success story, in India, is well worth a study. The Redmi 4 is a major part of that success story. It's done wonders for Xiaomi, and the smartphone market in India. Which is where, its successor becomes all the more important. The Redmi 5 has som...
Bezel-less design, No notch, Selfie flash, Great display, Above par performance, Snapdragon 450 works surprisingly well, Decent battery life,
No USB-C, Low-light performance leaves a lot to be desired, No fast charging support, No Bluetooth 5.0
The Redmi 5 lands at a price point where people usually expect a normal smartphone that can handle basic tasks along with some mildly resource-heavy things. However, this phone performs like a beast, everything considered. I can safely say the Redmi 5 com...
