Xiaomi Expensive Now?

Samsung A33 has better processor, same size battery, but it only has 25w charging so that could be a step down? But otherwise if they are the same price the Samsung A33 wins.

though just checking the A33 4GB model is over 6k so that would be a limiting factor as I don't know the price of 6GB

pricing is ok at that its the 600min airtime that kills the contract prices these days i ave 600 to 700 min per month
 
For the A33 PRICE you can get all the below and much more
Redmi K40s
Poco F4
Realme Q5 Pro
Realme GT NEO 1or 2

Snapdragon 870
8gig ram
256gig storage
120fps OLED screens
Waaaay faster charging
And they all look miles better than the A33.

Wife surprised me, her contract expired and she upgraded to A33 and the watch 5 and gave it to me.

Wanted to keep my Redmi note 9S and Amazfit GTS, but wife convinced me to rather sell the Xiaomi's. A bloody 9 year old is walking around with a superb piece of hardware. :cautious:
I was also curious as to how the A33 and watch's NFC + Google wallet works. Works great......don't feel that I gained a lot.
A33 I had to restart twice since I got it in November, as the wifi stops working and also I have to restart it from the settings menu as the power buttons also doesn't work at that time. Further more, A33 and Watch 5 is great. Just missing some fine tune settings.

I paid 6.5k for my Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 pro. Hoping to get at least three years out of it. I had some annoying GPS issues but it's strength is probably it's camera. It can take some good pics and while not exactly on par with the latest iPhone when it comes to camera, a more experienced/creative photographer using my phone will probably capture better images than a total amateur with an iphone.

I'd probably not buy it again if I could start over though unless it's performance starts getting seriously impressive soon. I did update the software a day ago so hoping that resolves the GPS issues.

Ag please. Tiger Woods with a R1000 set of golf clubs will beat an amateur golfer with a 20k set of golf clubs.
But Steven Spielberg with your Xiaomi will not beat a 5year old kid with an Iphone
 
I had this dilemma in October. Jut connected devices had a few pixel 4 devices discounted to 6k at the time. Was enough to convince me after seeing xiaomi mi prices.

Quite impressed with a phone that was released in 2019. Got one last hi update to Android 13 with security updates to 2022 October.

This phone is far better than the mi9t I came from and the os is buttey smooth with an excellent camera still. I am sure it is not match compared to the pixel 7 but very happy with it.

My point was a few years ago you'd could get a Xiaomi Note series phone with the same specs as a Samsung midrange for 50% less of the cost. I Remember buying my Note 7 for R3300 and I was blown away by the value.

Note 7 blown away with the battery combusting…

R/$ and world wide inflation has found you.
 
I have the 9T Pro or something.

I dislike Xiomi. Won't buy another one when I upgrade.

It works and all but the OS is so kak

It's like when you muff dive a chick and everything is good, but there's that faint "off" smell
