The rear-mounted fingerprint sensor has not moved, but where the single-lens camera previously sat above it Xiaomi has now added a second lens and moved this to a position at top-left. It did lie flush; now it juts out a tad. And naturally there have been hardware changes, which result in a boost to performance. Gone is the deca-core Helio X20 chip with Mali T880 graphics, and in comes the Snapdragon 636 with Adreno 509. There’s a 4GB RAM, 64GB storage model, too (that’s what we’re reviewing here). Redmi Note 5 Design & Build Despite the aforementioned sprinkling of plastic parts, Redmi Note 5 is a very good-looking phone at this price. Moreover, it feels sturdy, and very well-made.

The screen and taller aspect ratio is a blessing for usability, and though it’s still a bit of a stretch for your thumb to reach the top corner it is operable in a single hand – especially when you take advantage of one-handed mode, which shrinks the display area. It’s an IPS panel, which bodes well for quality, with realistic colours and good viewing angles. We can’t find any official reference to the Note 5 using Gorilla Glass protection, but thanks to a metal rear it is only the one side of this smartphone you need to keep safe. You’ll also find a silicone case in the box, which is handy.

We measured the maximum screen brightness at 427cd/m2, which is very good for a sub-£200 phone. Being able to ramp up the brightness so high also makes the screen easier to see outdoors. The display has a full-HD+ resolution of 2160×1080, which results in a pixel density of 403ppi.

It’s sufficiently clear, and also no higher in resolution than even Xiaomi’s flagship phones. We’re disappointed to see an old Micro-USB port at the bottom, especially given that it won’t charge any faster than at 10W. There is a charger supplied in the box, but it has a two-pin EU plug, so if you’re purchasing this phone in the UK you’ll need to supply your own adaptor. Naturally at this price there’s no support for wireless charging, which has so far been seen only on the Mi Mix 2S. On the up side, Xiaomi has retained the IR blaster on the Note 5’s top edge. It’s incredibly rare to find such a feature in phones these days. There’s also the fingerprint scanner at the rear, which works well – but if you’re interested in mobile payments be aware there’s no support for NFC. Connectivity is otherwise pretty good, with dual-band 802.11ac Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 5.0, GPS and GLONASS, and a hybrid SIM slot that can either accept a single SIM and a microSD card for storage expansion or two SIMs that work in dual-standby mode.
Redmi Note 5 Hardware & Performance Powering the show here is a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 chip clocked at 1.8GHz, with integrated Adreno 509 graphics. It’s paired with 4GB of memory. That’s the same setup as in the Mi Max 3, and as you’ll see in our chart below performance is on par. As we said for that phone, the Redmi Note 5 is not a speed demon. However, it offers usable performance for most users for daily tasks, and we didn’t spot any sign of lag when navigating the interface and launching apps. You can play casual games and watch movies, provided you don’t throw anything too intensive at it. Battery life is very good, and you’ll easily get at least a full day’s life from the 4000mAh cell – maybe more, depending on your usage.
In Geekbench 4’s battery test it scored 5390 points, and kept churning through its task list for 8 hours 59 minutes. Redmi Note 5 Cameras & Photography It might sound like a similar setup as found on the Mi Max 3, but the Redmi Note 5’s camera is inferior with no AI mode. It also maxes out at 1080p video recording. Still, it’s an improvement on the Redmi Note 4’s 13Mp rear camera and 5Mp selfie camera.
