 Redmi Note 5 Pro Cons – Top 5 reasons not to buy

1. Lacks 4K video recording

The camera is one of the segments where Xiaomi has done a lot of improvement in Redmi Note 5 pro over Redmi Note 4. However, there are two disappointments for the users. First one is lack of 4K video recording and the second one is the absence of optical image stabilization.

2. No Android 8.0 Oreo out of the box

Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro runs on Android N(7.0) out of the box. Missing latest Android version on a smartphone which is launched after 6 months of the public launch of Android Oreo is not a great move.

3. Fast charger not included in the box

Redmi Note 5 pro supports some of the fast chargers and not all. Even the SoC used on the device has support for fast charging. However, it is sad to see no compatible fast charger in the box.

4. No dedicated microSD card support

Both the variants of Redmi Note 5 Pro which is launched in India has 64GB of internal storage. It is more than enough for most of the users. But, dedicated microSD card slot would have been better.

5. Difficulty of purchasing

Now Xiaomi smartphones are available via an open sale. However, if you are planning to buy one for yourself, you should be very quick to grab one. The units will get sold out in few seconds.  It is unfortunate that Xiaomi is not able to provide enough number of devices to market.

    Loved reading the post. Was worth my time. I am a fan of Redmi phones. However I am a bit disappointed because I was thinking about buying the Redmi Note 5 Pro having read about the impressive camera features but didn’t know that it doesn’t come with a dedicated microSD card support!
