I like Redmi Note 5 Pro. No notch, good front camera, reinforced frame, Corning Gorilla Glass, dual rear camera etc. But I don't like how it has a big 6 inch screen. I am not sure whether I will need 6 GB RAM. My main focus is good rear and selfie camera. But I need overall balance as well. Feature like good performance, decent battery etc

Which one do you suggest ? Is there any other model from Xiaomi ? I thought about Redmi 6 but 5 MP front camera is really meek. Thanks.

I've always thought of Xiaomi of the cancer of the mobile industry.
While its true based on how heavy their skin is, their OS has EVERYTHING even in phones as low as 5k. You might not like it but for low end users its gold. If you dont like the interface, just install Nova launcher.

Recently they made a dick move of giving ads via inbuilt apps. But you can use a debloater via adb and remove that shit in 5 minutes. For someone moving from a feature phone or low end phone, there is nothing better. Stock android is great till you have to root for basic stuff.
