Everyone knows about the stiff competition in the mid-range segment and Xiaomi's Redmi phones have reigned successfully in numerous markets across the globe. Now the Redmi Note 7 makes no exception to the rule and it does so without any fancy over-the-top features. It's clean, simple, powerful and affordable handset that focuses on what's important. But there are a few alternatives that still need to be considered. Sure, the Redmi Note 7 is a great all-rounder, but we can't just lightly ignore the offerings from Huawei, Honor, Samsung and even Realme.
Let's start with Xiaomi's big competitor in India - the Realme 2 Pro. Both phones sport similar hardware but the Redmi Note 7 takes the lead with more premium glass build, better battery life and more capable camera. Performance-wise, however, you won't find any significant difference so it depends on which skin overlay you prefer - MIUI or ColorOS.
Redmi Note 7 such as incredibly long battery life, powerful SoC for the asking price, great build quality, good camera experience and the presence of an awesome array of connectivity options ( USB-C, 3.5mm jack and it even has an IR blaster, a microSD slot, and FM radio) .
Pros
Solid build quality with Gorilla Glass 5 on the front and back.
Awesome battery life.
Very good overall camera quality, especially in low light.
Well geared in terms of connectivity - USB-C, 3.5mm jack, IR, microSD, FM radio, Bluetooth 5.0 and Wi-Fi 802.11ac ( but lacks NFC) .
Supports Quick Charge 4 ( however the quick charger not included) .
Solid performance and great UI responsivness.
Cons
No 4K video recording even though the chipset supports it.
The camera exposure metering and color accuracy in daylight leave more to be desired.
No NFC
Hope the review helping in making decision.
