Though, it’s 399 yuan more than the previous generation still no smartphone manufacturer can give its customer a 5.99-inch display with a resolution of 2160 × 1080, equipped with Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor, 6GB of memory + 64GB storage, and a battery capacity of 4000mAh. All this with a front AI smart beauty camera as the selling point, MIUI 9 (Android 8.0) and a great metal built. Thus, with a price increase, Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 is still worthy of spending 1499 yuan.
