Redmi Note 7 by Xiaomi

What's the pricing and is the phone dual sim disabled ?

R289pm on 2GB Data Contract.

Redmi 7 is R199 on 2GB Data Contract.

Not sure about dual SIM being disabled but from my experience getting my Redmi 2 through Game on Vodacom contract the dual SIM wasn't disabled.

Sounds a bit pricey TBH for a contract
 
hey folks, some advice for a bit of a tech noob please....

have any of you guys rooted your note 7? was it easy and worth it? why?

have you found a charger that can quick charge the phone? (I have a Blitzwolf QC2 that doesn't quick charge the 7 but did my LG G4)

1. It's as easy as any other phone.
2. Depends why you want to root. If you want to debloat it, there's a tool available on XDA which works very well and doesn't require root. If you want to install a custom ROM, the general consensus is that the official ROM is still the best. Only problem I've found with the official ROM is the notifications, which is improved on custom ROMs.
3. No idea about charging.
 
Ordered myself a Redmi Note 7. What tips can you share with me? For example, how can I best protect it and which updates to avoid?

Most people don't like these phone holders/cases, but I've always used them and got myself this one - very nice and good quality - https://www.gearbest.com/cases-leather/pp_009631863917.html?wid=1433363 - I see they're on special now - I paid $6.11
Also got myself the following:

Still not used to the MiUI 10, as I was used to an LG G4 for 4 years....

Im hopefully ordering one online today as well, and will be getting the following case, its not pretty, but these things work darn well.
 
Another update out.

Just an FYI, I bought the black Note 7 128GB from Takealot, and it came with a gel case and screen protector, even though the website says nothing about that
 
Im really enjoy this note 7, and the battery life is amazing! The only issue I have is with the notification bar only showing the notifications briefly before disappearing, meaning you cant see if you have any whatsapp messages or emails for example, until you swipe down to see all notifications.
Does anyone know of a work around or fix?
