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
Good, Excellent value for money, Relatively powerful processor, Good construction quality, Great battery life
Mediocre cameras, Outdated version of Android

The Xiaomi Redmi 5 isn't special, and it isn't quite as important to the company as even the Redmi Note 5 and Redmi Note 5 Pro. Instead, it's there to fill in a blank and cater to a very specific price segment, which it does capably. You're assured the cl...

Solid build quality, Nice tall screen, Solid battery life, Dependable overall performance, Flexible and feature-rich MIUI 9.1 - bound to be better tuned to Western markets when the phone gets a proper Global ROM, Good all-round camera experience with nice
Screen resolution is barely enough for the screen size, No NFC or 5GHz Wi-Fi Support, No fast charging, Baseline storage likely to run out soon, Limited availability
So, to answer our original question, Xiaomi's downsizing of the Redmi 5 Plus did not ruin the Redmi 5. There's been obvious cost-cutting but the end result is still a perfectly usable budget phone.To be fair though, the Redmi 5 isn't that much better than...
