    I can't believe I'm tempted to buy this when I just bought a new phone 4 months ago.

        Going by Xiaomi's trend, they destroy your 'Future Proof' prior Xiaomi phone. Those who have Note 8 / Note 8 Pro now would be tempted to buy Note 9 Pro although their phone is technically Future Proof, for the time being.

        • JuryWheel on 03/09/2020 - 16:12

          YES! I have a redmi note 8t and wish i could have got this instead with a Snapdragon 720p vs 665
          EDIT - man, but this thing is even thicker and heavier! wow, must be a brick! Also, this has bluetooth 5.0 which would be great!

          • Jimbuscus on 04/09/2020 - 03:21

        • JoseJoseJose on 03/09/2020 - 18:49

          I'm rocking Redmi Note 8 Pro, which was a purchase decision solely based on the looks, for the lake of better-looking phones at that price and +900.. YES that includes the note 10 lineup that I hated (and waited for, for 3 years, if it only was an s10+ with a pen).

          I am a notch below superuser, but I don't really game. Soo, my phone is gonna be in service for a while.

          sorry for talking too much..

        My Oppo is fine honestly, I was eyeing this off when I was deciding, but at the time it was much cheaper and also local warranty.

        But the current price of this Xiaomi is pretty tempting.

            @yht: The A52 has been receiving monthly security patches, they're putting a lot more effort into their more budget range these days.

            The Redmi is great for custom roms though, if you want to avoid Oppo then definitely grab this phone. No brainer at this price.

              @mangobango: I'm having a Redmi Note 5 Pro (March'2018), was on Android Nougat (7.0) when purchased. I got updates to Oreo (8.0), and Pie (9.0) in 2 years time. Also, even if the Android updates stop, Xiaomi still keeps updating MIUI, so the phone will still receive MIUI12 slated in October'2020.

              And I had purchased this phone for $259 in March'2018. Still using it, no battery deterioration, nothing. I don't need a new phone, just that I dont have Band 28 and I'm not getting VoLTE on Boost Mobile due to it.

                @djoz: +1 to @djoz - I've got a note 7, upgraded from a note 3 last year. The note 3 is still going strong and i think the battery still has a days use. It would probably be the note 11 or whatever by the time i'm ready to get a new phone in 3 years.

      Like $301ish.

      Probably better off grabbing the 128gb model, as a 64gb microSD would likely cost more than $14.

      • dojomojo on 03/09/2020 - 15:08

        On the other hand, you can reuse the microSD in another device after you stop using this phone.

    • djoz on 03/09/2020 - 12:10

      $311, down to $301.67 after applying CART3. I feel the extra $13.58 is certainly worth getting double storage, hence doesn't look like a deal when compared to 128GB version.

    I am still tossing between this and Redmi Note 8 Pro and Mi Note 10 lite ($100 more) as looking for one that has better camera quality.

    • Guessologist on 03/09/2020 - 14:19
      +1

      I was basically doing the same thing and looking for the best camera quality in the lineup before I bought the Note 9 Pro. I suspect all three phones have the exact same sensor and lens setup based on the specs available, although the 10 Lite has laser autofocus (according to gsmarena) which might mean that you get faster and more accurate focus in some low light conditions. Software would be the main variable left to affect photo quality but if you slap gcam onto them then you can basically be in control of that too. I think objectively the Note 10 Lite is the better phone with the AMOLED screen but in my case it was a stretch budget-wise to even the 64gb version, and it doesn't have an microSD slot. The Note 8 Pro, having a Mediatek processor, is less widely supported for gcam so there was a bit of a risk going that way for me as I like to tinker, which left the Note 9 Pro.

        +2

        Kogan is not an official Xiaomi reseller in Australia. They are still dealing in grey imports. So unless the phone comes with a global warranty, your not getting a true local manufacturer's warranty. Your dealing with Kogan directly. It's not the same as buying from from JB, HN or the official online mi store au. But the official au prices are ridiculous.

        • chrisie on 03/09/2020 - 14:07

          Yes that's what I though so you would still need to deal with Kogan, them holding the warranty, not really a preferred option to put it nicely.

      Gcam works great on it, I'm personally running the PixelCam Plus version of it (despite not being a fan of the orange icon…) as it was one that was known to work with all three main cameras. I'm sure other versions run fine but I'll give this one a good burl before I really look at changing.

  • Guessologist on 03/09/2020 - 13:15

    Bought same off TobyDeals a month ago for $338, really good phone. The package came via DPEX to Australia, swapped over to Toll when it got here but took a long time so if you don't see tracking updates for a while try slapping the tracking number into the Toll website.

    • yht on 03/09/2020 - 13:15

      How is the camera quality ?

      • Guessologist on 03/09/2020 - 13:34

        Really can't fault the main camera at all, it's maybe a slight step up from my older Redmi Note 7 which was already pretty great with gcam, just from the bump in megapixels from 12 to 16 (binned). The wide angle is okay, it takes nice photos but doesn't quite have the dynamic range of the main but it is better than my only other point of reference which is the wide angle on my old LG V20 and it can adjust focus which is nice, I understand most wide angles are fixed focus. The macro lens is convenient as I probably take more macro shots than most people would, image quality is good enough, as reviews say you might get better results cropping the main camera's image but in reality I'm not going to bother going through that process for quick snapshots.

      Does it come with a protective case?

  • battler on 03/09/2020 - 13:25

    so 2 weeks ago i ordered the Nokia 5.3 ~$200, but due to shipping delays was about to cancel it and get the ~$250 Oppo A52…. now I find myself here at $300…
    Not a heavy user, odd browsing and messaging apps and FB, no gaming, wouldn't mind a better camera, but noting I currently have a 5 year old Xiaomi Redmi 3 (i think), so anything is likely a substantial improvement in that department.
    Need someone to talk me out of waiting for the $200 Nokia, and getting this. What benefits will I really get?

      If it's any consolation you will get better warranty service with Amazon

      Also no Xiaomi bloat ware, which is one of the major pain points of Xiaomi in my experience

      This is however a much faster phone with more memory and it is miles ahead of the Nokia 5.3 in the processor department. Snapdragon 730g is a generation ahead of the 665

    Is this a decent upgrade from a galaxy s8? Partner and myself are looking for a new phone each.

      Wondering the same too !

    Have been using Xiaomi for the last 8 years with 7 different models - I upgrade almost every year because they are so cheap. They are all good value for money honest speaking. However, I noticed that the phone mute sometime (between 3 to 5 seconds) during the conversation. It doesn't happen everytime but it happens intermittently.
    Can live with it but sometimes it's very annoying if it was important calls.

      That's when "they're" listening in! 😜😂🤣

      How is the resale price whenever you sell each year?

    I want something like this but with AMOLED screen.

      The Mi Note 10 Lite is almost the exact same thing (less an microSD slot if that's important to you) with an AMOLED screen for an additional 100 bucks, but you pretty much have to start dropping specs to get AMOLED at the same price.

    Thanks for this, Op. Bit the bullet and await the upgrade to my Mi Max 3. so glad there was a decent successor.

    the NFC version if you can live with 4GB ram is ~$257 delivered from banggood

      Do you have a link?

      • FeZZa21 on 03/09/2020 - 17:45

        Just go there and search for it. It'll have options for colour and NFC when you add to cart/checkout

        • batrarobin on 03/09/2020 - 17:49

          Can't find it. I think you meant Redmi Note 9 (and not the Note 9 Pro)?

          • FeZZa21 on 03/09/2020 - 17:50

            @batrarobin: Oh damn yes, didn't see this was for pro

            • batrarobin on 03/09/2020 - 17:52

              @FeZZa21: Yeah the Note 9 Pro is much better specs than the normal Note 9.

      This is the pro version, a different phone, there's processor and camera differences.

  • SeVeN11 on 03/09/2020 - 16:50

    I bought this from Tecobuy for $328 over the weekend.
    Doh.

  • caryzhangyin on 03/09/2020 - 16:51

    I put an order for XIAOMI 10 lite 5G on 28th of Aug, still in processing status. So I just requested to cancel it. Waited for too long…

  • Peteroz on 03/09/2020 - 16:51

    I want the phone with 12mp wide angle camera, all these phones which are under $500 range come only with 8mp wide angle. Any recommendations for 12mp wide angle, which are reasonably priced?

  • iNeedMoreMoney on 03/09/2020 - 17:19

    Is it worth it with the dust issue creeping up? Still thinking whether to risk buying this or not

    • batrarobin on 03/09/2020 - 17:41

      I think on Whirlpool forums someone mentioned that Xiaomi confirmed it was a QA issue on a certain variant which apparently has now been addressed.

    • dingdong3000 on 03/09/2020 - 17:43

      Luck of the draw i guess.
