Sell Samsung Galaxy S8 to buy Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 ?

I would like to buy a Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 4/64 (global) phone.

The problem is that I don’t have enough money, so I figured out that I can sell my old phone which is Samsung Galaxy S8 64 GB Exynos (F variant).

That way I would have money to buy RN5 and have some spare money left to save.

MY PERSONAL OPINION AND COMPARISON OF THESE TWO PHONES:

Samsung Galaxy S8

Pros:

1. S8 looks very good and has a perfect size/ratio, it stays firmly in one hand and in jeans front pocket fits perfectly (no pain while walking like with some giant phablet).

2. It has the best screen on the market with great colors.

3. S8 makes better photos/videos.

4. Music sounds better with or without their premium ear-pods.

Samsung Galaxy S8

Cons:

1. When Samsung Galaxy S6 had Android 7.0 it was relatively easy to customize all (100% I think) the phone settings. It just took time.

However Samsung S8 Android 8.0 there was too much settings (about +75% more in compare with S6/Nougat) and it looked like it’s gonna take me forever to customize them all. A lot of this new functions I didn’t use cause I didn’t even understand their purpose.

I have tried for many months to setup the S8 but I never came even close to finish in part due to my not being able to understand what a particular function or option does and there were still so much more of them to setup and meanwhile I was getting more and more angry that the time was quickly passing by and I didn’t get the job done. The pace was extremely slow.

Now I’m kinda’ pXXXXXd off cause obviously this S8 phone is way too complicated for me to set it up and maybe even to use it correctly if I ever would have finished the setup at 100%.

2. In the S8 I didn’t install any additional apps from Google Play but it was still possible and quite easy to notice some delays/lags/freezes using the phone. Just imagine to freeze a flagship phone with bouncing back and forth in menu or default apps in the 8th Galaxy. LOL!

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 4/64 (global) phone.

Pros:

1. With MIUI it’s as fast as Samsung Experience but no lags, delays, freezes. Maybe it’s even faster sometimes. RN4 was even ultra fast.

2. The configuration of Android with MIUI is so EASY and FAST could do it in 2h tops! I can understand at least 90% of MIUI's functions.

3. MIUI has it’s version of KNOX/SafetySpace

4. RN5 4/64 is 2,5 time less expensive than S8..

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 4/64 (global) phone.

Cons:

1. Looks not as good as S8.

2. It’s not so comfortable while holding it in one hand as S8.

3. S8 camera is way better, but RN5 cam got improved since RN4 just to be good enough.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] menonmanjesh:
You better sell. LOL
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] SirSoviet:
You're asking this because you're unhappy with the S8. You should just sell it, or wait a couple of days and reconsider it.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
That's 2:0 for RN5 so far.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] StonebridgeGr:
only for the screen of s8 i wouldnt buy rn5
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] :
Hi,

I was in the same boat like you, but it was with Redmi Note 5 Pro.

All the pros and cons you have written are accurate. I bought s8 hoping for Pixel like performance. Except that, I like to have options and S8 gives a lot of options to customize.

Few things you might want to consider doing before making this irreversible action.

- Browse through Redmi Note 5 forums on XDA and really go through the negative ones to see if there are solutions for the problems.

- Know your friend/social circle. If people, whom you interact a lot, have phones like iPhone or Pixel or LG, you might feel uncomfortable using a cheaper product or chinese brand phone. (Tip: Casually ask them what they think about Xiaomi as a brand)

- You can use BxActions and customize the bixby button to your liking. (for showing off purposes)

- Look for s8 videos on Youtube for assistance. For eg. search for "s8 best features" or "make s8 faster".

- Redmi Note 5 UI may be smoother but if you love playing demanding games, the GPU might not hold up that well.

- Redmi Note 5 being cheaper is not a pro if you have already purchased an s8 and planning to sell it.

Rest is all up to you.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
WOW! Thanks for that awesome answer

I have S8 and have Redmi Note 4 (not for sale)

What do You think now?

That many options like in S8 maybe good for people who like to root and flash custom roms,

maybe it was Samsung's goal to show that there's no need for it in S8/Oreo.

That MIUI is a bless for these who don't like to root/flash and setup a million options to get the phone FULLY configured.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] adj998:
Swappa, Craigslist, eBay, etc....?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] :
Absolutely! I got no reason to root my s8. The amount of customizations is so awesome and no other manufacturer provides this experience (I might be wrong, have never used MIUI).

- you can have edge lighting notification and call alerts (your choice of color and style)

- a whole market of native theming

- option to customize your lockscreen clock and your Always On Display

- Volume keys affect only media volume (new for android p, old for samsung)

- changing graphic resolution between QHD > FHD > HD (I am always on HD resolution, doesn't notice any pixelation)

- Secure folder: it is like having a personal space. you can login using another google and samsung account. Apps installed in secure folder are completely separated from your normal apps

- Lockscreen notification can be shown as just the app icons

- One handed mode. shrink the screen. (unlike apple which pulls the screen down)

- Pop-up windows (I can open 4 apps side by side on 5.8" screen)

- Iris scanner option (I wear glasses so it's useless for me) [more secure than android's face unlock and works during the night]

Tip for better battery life

- Go to Device Maintenance > Battery > Always sleeping apps > Add Apps > Select all apps except for your chatting and emailing apps

- Go to Device Maintenance > Battery > Unmonitored apps > include your chatting and emailing apps (I included nova launcher)

- Go to Device Maintenance > Battery > Mid (power saving mode) > uncheck Background network usage (doesn't affect your 'Unmonitored apps') > apply

My only dissatisfaction is regarding how slow the software updates are.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Thanks! point again!

You got me thinking there...

I also agree that the software updates are very rare especially for Android OS updates. I think that sec updates are going good as people got very angry through the years and Samsung listened and gives a sec update every month.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] mario972:
Unless you're looking to get some money out of the deal, sell the S8 and try to get Oneplus 6 or Xiaomi Mi8
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Oneplus 6 doesnt have MIUI right?

And when Xiaomi Mi8 hits the sale?

Mario972 when does it start in Your country?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] MydVDZ:
Bro i wear glasses too and it works just great
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Maybe it's because there are different glasses (shape, thickness and refraction parameters affect it).

Can You please send a photo of Your glasses on the table so we can know what type of glasses are Samsung friendly?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] MydVDZ:
There it isView attachment 4532694
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Thanks bro! It looks like normal common glasses. We should see the ones from our Friend who claims that his make S8 not working.

BTW I can see that you failed your paper test ;)
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Can You please send a photo of Your glasses on the table so we can know what type of glasses are Samsung friendly?
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] :
Probably depends on how clean your lenses are and the power.

I don't remember my lens power, last time I checked was 4 years ago.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
'The clean lenses and power - yes but they can be calculated into one parameter I refferred to as refraction.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Any other last minute advice PLEASE?

I have only a few days left.

PLEASE respond to my problem XDA Friends!

PLEASE reply evem the most stupid argument/answer can save me from a potential mistake!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Rehvix:
You got the phone for a reason. Assuming you bought it for the camera, aesthetics, brand, then you will definitely regret selling it. It ultimately is your decision though and won't impact anyone as big as it will you, so you shouldn't put too much weight into others opinions.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Thanks bro for responding.

You're right, I bought the phone mainly for overall quality, speed and most important photo/vis quality.

And S8 did deliver on these!

BUT I didn't know that S8 will deliver me a super hard interface that I just can't handle!

I envy You guys how do You ger that phone properly set up and moreofall rooted and custom rommed like the stiock's MILION settings wasn't enough.

It's always good to ask others for advice especially if I am not a big expert on phones. They may shock me with a fact that I didn't know and that may persuade me one way or the other.

Of course that all of this will impact me like every other decision I make in life.

Today I've heard too much votes for S8 and against Xiaomi. So something must be in the air.

If someone can still bring in some info then let's hear it.

The time hasn't run out of me yet but in a few days it will.

PLEASE GIVE ME EVEN A STUPID ADVICE!

(these tend to be sometimes valuebale)

Thanks!
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] matesurano:
In other news , another guy(me!) dying to buy s8. But alas! still can't afford it. May be next year when price comes down. Currently running a Redmi 4x. Well its a very good device for the price. But bought it mainly because of the compact size. Anyway.......JUST DON'T SELL YOUR GALAXY S8. Only thing I don't like about it is the glass back. And dont root/unlock your s8, I mean samsung pass is just heaven. No other devices have tthis. Third party password managers r s**t. Also don't forget Samsung pay.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] moksjm:
Selling s8 to buy mi5 is dumb

If you are using mi5 shortly(less than a year) then it is okay, but unless you are using less than a year, just wait for s10. I wont sell s8 to buy mi 5
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] Philipp_94:
If the S10 will not be a absolute bomber, I will go to Xiaomi. Especially the Mi 8 Explorer Edition sounds very interesting to me.

But for now, stick with the S8, it would be ridiculous to sell that flagship for a redmi note 5.

In my opinion, it would just be a to big downgrade in all points. Honestly, if you take time and really dig through every bit of your phone, you can get totally satisfied with the S8. Like former posters said, Samsung pass, Samsung pay and knox are only some of the awesome features that no other brand (except for Apple) has in this well functioning system.

So before thinking about tossing that great device, just ask what you don't understand. That's why XDA.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
Wow, You're post is amazing.

If I sell S8 I will be left alone with Redmi Note 4 and with no money to buy any flagship.

It's like perfectly opposite situation than You :}

BTW RN4 can be sold to save some money after buying RN5.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] george.ionescu:
So you're looking forward to selling a FLAGSHIP device bought not too long ago for a large amount of money to get a BUDGET, cheap looking device and some pocket change in return? That logic seems a bit flawed to me.

Samsung Experience is not even that complicated nowadays, just take some time to get used to it or ask for advice.

Don't take the step, it's an unthoughtful decision.
[Samsung Galaxy S8 Questions and Answers] androidbadboy:
First Off, my last post was about let's say "the irony of life".

Second, you got that first sentence right.

Third, I'm trying every few days to get that stupid interface set-up and its just not for my patience anymore.

Fourth, thanks, you're making good points however although my decision would be irreversible that "pocket change" is not that small to me. It's 2/3 of the initial price. That is no pocket change!

I don't have this device but, if I'm remembering correctly, I believe that the only one that works for this specific device is the Magisk XPosed.

The following thread may be for the "Pro" variant but I believe that the Magisk XPosed information on the OP should apply to your "Plus" variant as well.

I saw a seller in china that said that is a Amlogic S905 in the description and in the specs it said:

CPU	RK3229 quad-core cortex-A7 frequency：2.0G

GPU	Mali-400 5-Core GPU

***** RAM	1G DDR3

And leelbox website says RK3229.

I would not buy it if they can't even get the specs right. Maybe ask the amazon seller.

Hi

I bought a huawei band 2 and have and issue with stabilizng the connetcion. It doesn't connect to original app at all and even if used third party and paired it after 5000 trials it does not stay connected. It dispaires itself and does not repair. More 5000 trials are needed to establish temporary :( connection.

I used this band with nexus 5 without an issue. I am sure that's the problem with this huawei p8lite soft. Information about soft version in an attachment.

Is there any way to fix this permanently ? Maybe some custom software? I need to mention that if I had to change to CWF(like i do with my phones), everything needs to be working smooth, because it's phone of my GirlFriend. I heard of many issues connected with upgrading soft of this phone like GPS or camera disablity.
