The volume rocker and power switch are located on the right. They are large and easy to reach with their fingers, but when pressed too "hard." On the opposite side is a slot for memory cards and SIM, for the extraction of which you will need a special tool. There is also a LED notification indicator.

The smartphone uses an IPS-matrix, which is notIt is subject to displacement of colors at a sight at an angle. By default, the color rendering is fairly accurate with an average deltaE of 5.3 and a maximum of 9.8. These numbers are very similar to the characteristics of the LG V20 or Sony Xperia XZ. Blue colors are too prominent, and the white balance is close to cold shades. Although the ability to configure the last parameter is provided, the standard mode is the most accurate. At the same time, the average value of deltaE drops to a very good value of 2.8 and a maximum of 6.1. It's close to the iPad Pro and better than many flagship LCDs.

They include a compass, a barcode scanner, a voice recorder, a feedback application, a remote control, a weather forecast, a Mi forum, a default browser, etc. Since it is not possible to remove preinstalled software, in the opinion of the owners, the manufacturer must reduce their number or provide an opportunity removing at least some of them.
According to reviews, Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GBcopes with all the applications that users started on it. At the same time, they did not have any claims to the processor. For example, the CPU easily manages heavy games such as Asphalt 8 and Dead Trigger 2 without causing a sense of power shortage. Multitasking does not reduce the speed of the smartphone - applications run without delay. The version with 4 GB of RAM always has enough free memory. However, the more popular because of the low price of modification with 2 GB of RAM may suffer from its lack.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB black reviews are calledan excellent multimedia device thanks to a good IPS display and support for high-resolution video files, including 4K. The bottom speaker has a decent volume and does not distort at its maximum levels. The headset is not included in the kit, but checking the sound quality through the headphones speaks for mediocre results.
The smartphone is gaining an impressive 65,560 points inthe AnTuTu test and the 42690 in the Quadrant, which is higher than the recently released Asus ZenFone 3 and Lenovo P2, which have the same Snapdragon 625 processor. The Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 4G 32GB GPU reviews users' opinions too highly - in the T-Rex GFXbench test is achieved frequency 28 fps and 9,029 points in the 3D Mark Ice Storm Extreme. These estimates are in line with expectations, but it is worth noting that Note 3 with the Snapdragon 650 CPU achieves the best overall results.
Pre-installed application for photo and videovideo shooting has many modes, including improvements, panoramas and manual. In Scene mode, the device allows users to choose from a variety of options, including portrait, landscape, sport, night, night portrait, snow, beach, sunset, fireworks, lights and flowers. Filters can be used immediately when shooting, which is not bad. Selfies are distinguished by good colors and details, if they are made in well-lit conditions. The dynamic range of the 5-megapixel sensor, however, is not so wide and there is no HDR mode for it.
13-Mp rear sensor Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB, byreviews of owners, can make decent landscapes in both bright and low light. Macro pictures look good, they have the correct color rendition and detailing. AF quickly focuses the camera on objects. Photographs in low light are characterized by good detail, although with the increase you can see the granularity. In addition, the smartphone is not able to make good photos of moving objects.
The manufacturer focused its efforts onimproving the quality of the camera after complaints about the previous model, and it is clear that everything has changed for the better. Nevertheless, users still want to see other results in low light conditions, panoramic mode is disappointing, and HDR is too conservative.
The smartphone shoots video with a resolution of 1080p fromspeed 30 fps and can produce slow motion at a speed of 120 fps with a resolution of 720p. The interface here is a little uncomfortable - the slow-motion mode becomes available only after switching to 720p. Anyway, the videos in Full HD-quality are removed with a standard bit rate of 17 Mbit / s and capture audio at a speed of 128 Kbit / s and a sampling rate of 48 kHz. Video suffers the same softness and unsaturated colors as the camera. Worse, although the frame rate is 30 fps, some frames are duplicated, which gives the image some nervousness. The sound quality is normal, but the stereo is not as well divided as we would like.
Support for 2 x SIM cards with Xiaomi RedmiNote 4 Pro 32GB user reviews are welcome, but the device can work without them. Mi SIM is a virtual embedded SIM card that allows you to connect to mobile data without having a real one. It is enough to make an advance payment - and the smartphone will work even when roaming.

The player is similar to the MIUI version of Google Play Music.He can broadcast music online with added features, such as music videos and radio stations. He can also recognize songs with ACRCloud. Naturally, the audio player plays music offline, but the application does not miss the opportunity to advertise songs that, in his opinion, can please the user. Nevertheless, its possibilities are vast. The player supports DLNA, can show lyrics and search for similar songs. The player does not have an equalizer, but it has presets for several headsets - from conventional headphones to specific Xiaomi models.
FM radio requires a headset and can play the sound through it or the speaker. The application can record the broadcast and has a sleep timer.
The player starts from the gallery.Supports no subtitles, but there is DLNA. Here lies an amazingly powerful editor that is capable of cropping videos, adding filters, text labels and even soundtracks (from your own or pre-installed library).
According to user reviews, the smartphone initiallyseems to be coping well with its task. When connected to an active external amplifier, the device has an absolutely clean output without weak points. The sound of the golden Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB reviews are called qualitative, in terms of characteristics not inferior to the sound of its predecessor and Redmi Pro. The only speaker is located at the bottom, but it's pretty loud. Its lack is the lack of bass. The voice volume is 64.2 dB, the music is 67.2 dB, the ringtone is 76.9 dB. But after the headphones are connected, the stereo crosstalk significantly increases (from -94.9 to -53.6), intermodulation distortions occur. The frequency response is also slightly degraded, and the volume level is reduced. The phone will not become an audiophile's dream, but it will cope with its task, if not to impose too high demands on it.
A standard application is provided for them, butyou can use cheaper service Xiaomi, which works similarly to a telephone application. MMS, emoji and even postponed messages are supported, but in general, the capabilities of the smartphone are basic. The Baidu keyboard allows you to send stickers and has an interesting way of entering additional characters (for example, the numbers in the top line). Instead of a long press, you just press and hold your finger up. After getting used, the speed of dialing becomes quite high.
Несъемный аккумулятор емкостью 4100 мА∙ч provides 15 hours 10 minutes of work in a continuous video playback test, which is impressive. In the real world, the phone will last up to 2 days. With intensive use, it can last almost a day and a half without activating the battery saving modes. The most impressive feature of the smartphone Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB Gray reviews called its ability to work with weak cellular signals and Wi-Fi network. There is no quick-charging support, although for this price level this function could only be welcomed.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB reviews are calleda worthy acquisition, the disadvantages of which are its hybrid slot for SIM-cards, the lack of fast charging and the excess of pre-installed applications. The model makes a tough competition for other smartphones in its price segment and even some more expensive models. The phone is very well behaved in terms of design, performance and battery life. Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 32GB Gold reviews recommend those looking for a model with a large screen and an excellent battery.
