Test: Xiaomi redmi Note 3 – Mobile

China’s Xiaomi (think Tjaomi, or simply the English “Show me”), you are on the right path with the pronunciation) is one of the largest mobile phone manufacturers in the world. This almost exclusively they have made a name for itself in the domestic market in China and many other populous Asian countries by offering good specs at low prices. Here in Sweden or Europe in general for that matter, they have been almost unheard of until now. Nowadays, they are sold through a “preferred reseller,” not entirely officially launched but rather more gråimporterade but still reasonably officially. Currently it shows the redmi Note 3 we have brought in for the test, then it is really not particularly keen on this with the system language and time zones to the full extent. As the closest we can during the initial setting phase to enter the English language, and Ukraine as the closest point on the map. To control your phone to a more försvenskat position, at least for the keyboard, it is no problem when we are inside the phone, but expect some hiccups if you’re used to Swedish conditions.

While it’s convenient to order Xiaomis phones from Sweden, it is also what will be its main disadvantage here. Redmi Note 3 you can find for just over SEK 2 000 foreign sites, but with Swedish taxes and similar land price instead just under 4 000. This means that

the advantage of the price tag a bit lost but it is hardly Xiaomi alone, without including Huawei Honor series has experienced the same thing. Just comparison to Honor will also be a little more current because redmi Note 3 at roughly the identical price Honor 7, which has similar specifications.

Feature Filled
The comparison of Honor returns several times, in terms of both features and how the software is built. Honor 7 is better built than Xiaomi handset, but in return you get a little more impact from the hardware with the latter, so in many ways they are equal.

Here we are invited in any case in two deluxe features not quite common in all of the price con. IR port in the top of the phone allows you to run it as a remote control and fingerprint reader on the back is sufficiently fast, accurate and easy to make it easy to wake up the phone and log in without having to touch a single button.
