Good looking
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] silvercar1:
Note 4 MTK is beautiful. SD 4x version not so much.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] Badrikesh:
Redmi note 4 looks great in my opinion. My dark grey color looks beautiful and sexy without back cover and screen guard.

There are the same on the outside

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] silvercar1:
No they are not. The original nikel (not 4x) has a one piece machined billet aluminium case. The others have folded sheet metal and plastic ends.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] udayxd:
The difference is MTK has metal unibody whereas sd has not
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] yiannis1621991:
Well, i have the SD version and it is from metal..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] udayxd:
If you notice carefully you will see that top and bottom have plastic antenna bands.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] yiannis1621991:
Ok, that's not a big deal, most phones have them for better reception..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] IND_TechNetiUm:
Just like 80% of other Xiaomi users in india, i own a gold coloured device against my wish. Amen.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] mattroot16:
I don't think I'm beautiful XD

But my reception about the phone is good. It both looks nice and feels nice in a hand. Feels really sleek, like it's worth more than it is.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] Guilf:
Talked my friend into the Tilt. Didn't want to take responsibility for ROM flashing his unit, so left him with the bloat-free standard AT&T ROM with a number of installed cabs (also standard AT&T radio). Phone works literally everywhere, EXCEPT for the city in which he lives (Gainesville, Florida - 3G area). Even works on the highway just outside the city, but no luck when he's in the city. Familiar with all the standard radio problems, but not working in a single confined area is new to me. Sound to me like it could be fixed with a new radio. Could it be something other than that? I have used my unit while visiting Gainesville with no problems (I even get HSDPA in places), both pre and post flashing new ROMs/radios. He's within 30 days and I'd hate for him to have a hardware problem and me think it's just a radio issue. Searched for a while and not seen anything like this. Thanks in advance.
[Tilt, TyTN II, MDA Vario III General] sherpa:
That's really weird. If he's in within 30 days then I would just exchange it instead of flashing it with another radio.

Very good quality
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] RizwanH20:
Awesoem
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] ReDuXX528:
Not bad, but black version has that matte black back, which easily scratches. Seems like screen doesn't have any kind of hardened glass :(
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] breadland:
Not bad for a $200 CAD phone. I like the aluminum in the back and glass screen. Hate the plastic bands on top and the bottom though, easily scratched and don't look too nice. Also, the screen's not gorilla glass, just tempered glass which makes it a little more prone to scratching and breaking.

I'm going to put a tempered screen protector as soon as it arrives in the mail, the original plastic film it comes with will do until then.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] ZoWapBoy:
Quite good as compared to others at this price. But The lack of gorilla Screen protection is tge main drawback. And secondly, the Charging port was so easily damaged..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] arunhebbare:
Delicate, asthetic (gold and white version), precision finish adds a touch of quality. HOWEVER I was largely disappointed with how its software uses the hardware. My earlier moto g3 was far superior when it came to the software handling the hardware, especially the modem part, the modem in note 4 sucks when it comes to handling data. The octa core handling sure needs improvement. Xiaomi should spend more time in speeding up the core handling software to give its users a feel of the powerful ram and the usage of the 8 cores. If possible they should give the option for the users to use pure android or miui option.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] silvercar1:
MTK note 4. One piece billet case, lovely machining etc. Can't be beaten in this price range.

Sorry, I didn't tried Miui for a long time. Custom Roms FTW! ?
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] Mr,bluwe:
It has some goods and bads, but I didn't like it, it's highly bloated, the design is kinda good; but a lot of the elements looks like a cheap iOS copy, the notification is totally stupid (I was using Android N before getting this phone, which has a way much better notification system)..

And finally the stock ROM is very bad battery wise, it used to drain a lot of battery on standby, and for the first time i see that display isn't what took most of the battery instead it was Android system as shown by the phone's battery stats..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] D.L.Tejas:
The UI is clean and fast with their new MIUI 9 update,that does come close stock Android in terms to speed, you cannot compare that to iOS because there's originality in the software itself,but comparably the best skin on Android than others majorly, it's so user friendly and loaded with loads of customisations!!!, you can try it
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] MayankMathur:
I know it's a late post. I was thinking of flashing a custom ROM since I bought the phone, but you know what, the thing which people call bloat isn't bloat for me really, I mean those apps which come preinstalled actually work and are great for daily usage, for example, I don't have to search play store for a good wireless remote app, it's there already and works for everything which I used it with; similarly, nearly all those apps are actually good except the MI app store :P. So, I slowly felt that I didn't really required a custom ROM, MIUI performs well up to the mark and is obviously more stable than other custom ROMs, further, I've the phone rooted and MIUI optimizations turned off in dev options, so that I don't have to care about apps and services being turned off in background.

Conclusion: I'd recommend MIUI.

[for UI issues, I'd say, use Nova launcher and you can't do anything about the cheap iOS UI copied elements, but hey, they aren't that bad anyway!]

Contrast is decent levels.But there is a pinkish tint on my display which looks ugly
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] suvam69:
Not pinkish but a slight reddish tint but nothing major gets quickly adjusted to ur eyes
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] ReDuXX528:
It's good, but when you are in really dark environment (like under blanket in the middle of night lol) blacks are gray.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] suvam69:
Same with most of the Ips lcd displays..
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] breadland:
Yep, even TN LCD's will still glow in the dark. It's because LCD displays have a backlight in the back that is always on, then the Liquid Crystals on top of that can let light through or block it. Then a polarizing filter because liquid crystals only orient light in one direction and without that you would only see white light.

And by having 3 differently colored subpixels for each pixel, colored red, green, and blue, the primary colors of light, it's able to show a couple of million of colors.

Because the liquid crystals only let light through, not produce it, the white backlight's always on. If it's always on, even when the liquid crystals are blocking all the light, some light from the backlight will come through, making the screen appear greyish or blueish, especially in a dark room.

The only modern type of display to produce true blacks is OLED. Many phones tend to have AMOLED or Super AMOLED displays which are just a type of OLED.

OLED displays have little LEDs made of organic materials that produce their own light. Because of that, if an OLED display shows something black, all the pixels will turn off and no light is produced, showing an actual black image with no glow.

OLEDs also have no ghosting, which happens in LCD's because the liquid crystals can't change their orientation immediately to display a new color.

Unfortunately, while OLEDs do sound like the better choice, they are very expensive to produce compared to LCDs and also, the blue OLED subpixels tend to lose their brightness faster than their red and green counterparts, shortening the life of the display. There are some methods to prolong their lifespan like using a 4th white subpixel, but I've only seen it on very expensive TVs.

I have my original Vita from 2012 and I can see that the blue subpixels have lost their intensity because whites look a bit yellowish now. Makes sense because a brighter green and red will make yellow.

I hope that wasn't too long but I wanted to explain about the different types of display technologies and why most screens glow in the dark instead of showing the color black :P
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] sceptikart:
not to mention the burn in issues that amoled displays have.... thats why I prefer not so deep black over the burn in.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] szxa21:
It's not true black for me considering Xiaomi haven't used an OLED or AMOLED display.

[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] mohitkd:
Very rich and accurate colors
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] Rohan651:
The color saturation of this Redmi Note 4 (4GB version) is on little bit warmer side. Even if you try to correct saturation from MIUI settings to cool, it doesn't matches the perfect accuracy. But it is fine, you won't see the difference unless you are comparing two different phones side by side.

Overall Good but could be better. :svetius:
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] Sectorian:
In the lineage side thete ia livedisplay whit diffrent color profiles that help you to make a accurated color.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] apriores:
I have compared it with some Xiaomi phones and PC monitors and colors are note quite accurate... but quite worm. Red tends to be a little orange, green have some yellow in it, blue tend to be a little purple and so on, but the final result is that the phone has the most soft colors and the most soft display for the eyes, extremely sharp and easy to look. The background white is so soft that its like you're reading a paper. I just love this display the way it is! You can tune it a bit with cold set up if don't like worm colors.

Mi4c has the most accurate colors and a little more saturated than other models.

Phones compared with: Redmi Note 3, Redmi 2 Prime, Redmi 1S, Mi4c.

I'm not sure if it's an issue with the firmware on my device (using firmware from MIUI 9.1 with LineageOS 14.1), but I often find that my Redmi Note 4 drops signal in low signal areas and fails to return much more often than my previous device (Uhans A6). That said, it doesn't drop calls and seems pretty good otherwise.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] andyrtr:
Same to me with LinOS 14.1 where stock Miui had a stable signal strength using SIM slot2 (nano sim). I've tried several firmwares with no difference. I'm not sure if this is really an issue or if the signal strength indicator simply has a bad resolution to look that flaky.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] rn4Nlos:
These issue are a cause by the error in software that handles the signal indicator. There's no real issue with your custom ROM affecting your signal strength.
[Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 Real Life Review] stephendt0:
Wrong. If I toggle flight mode, signal returns instantly. Otherwise I can have no signal for minutes at a time.
