You sound like GRU from Despicable Me.

Awesome review. Redmi Note 5 is an amazing $200 phone!

You miss the zoom test. Secondary camera in 6X works even better than Mi 6 and Mi Note 3, the aperture is as bright as the main camera and it also has bigger sensor. 6X seems to be destined to replace 5X indeed, so the main feature is still the camera. Take the performance boost as a bonus, SD660 is an upper midrange beast. One thing Xiaomi needs to be slapped in the face for this device is in its thickness. They know they can't reduce the camera bump yet they still aim for useless overly thin device, even with the case on there's still camera bump. And for this, they sacrifice 25% of the battery. No gain, just pain.

Wow, for 100$ and missing just that few things I feel the Redmi is the one to go.
Video liked as always

Definitely Redmi Note 5. Cheaper, headphone Jack and 4000 mAh battery.

Very details comparison. I prefer Redmi Note 5 for the price to performance ratio. My setup will be Note 5 + AOSP Rom + Google Camera Port. Thanks alex

Great vid Alex! I think they should put the best pieces of each phone into the same body.

[JTManuel]

I love the 2:1 aspect ratio era; minimal bezels without a notch.

[Freedom-wzzq]

Great comparison mate. Really great performance from both. I'd edge towards the 6x. Still using my note 4X haha. Haven't upgraded it yet.

I was waiting for such a video. I'm glad I can view it on your channel. Cheers!

[BlazVeber]

OMG the video I never suspected to be out. Thanks, Aleks!

[methanoid]

Alex, your wife is a babe. Lucky man :-). Great vid as always !!

Just bought MI6X 4/64 Red color. Waiting for getting it on hand by tomorrow. Thanks man! :)

[carterdavis]

USB C is the reason that I want to get the mi a2. If it doesn't have a headphone jack I'm not goin to complain as most phones are steering from this nowadays anyways. I almost never listen to music when I charge my phone anyways.

Nice video and helpful comparison between the two. A bit disappointing they went with a small battery capacity on the 6x.

[OriginalPeterPan]

I've been told Alex is from Birmingham, UK and just puts this accent on. 😉

[risalatrahman]

Impressive comparison. Go ahead, Redskull :)
