New updates are being added at the bottom of this story…….

You won’t have to spend a fortune to get your hands on a smartphone today. For as low as $100, you can buy a decent device. The specs to price ratio has been increased to a level that we haven’t seen before.

When we talk about value for money, it is a crime not to include Xiaomi in the discussion. The company put haters of Chinese products into shame by offering loads of specifications at impressive pricing. And, we now have Realme following the same trend.

Released on 22 February 2018, Redmi Note 5 and Note 5 Pro achieved the feat of producing the biggest sale in the Indian history by selling more than 300,000 units within three minutes. People were going gaga over the smartphone then.

Fast forward to today, we went past two generations to have Note 8 series. However, there are millions who still cherish their Note 5 Pro units. They received Android Pie update about five months ago. The last firmware overhaul the device got was August security patch.

In case you are not aware, the Beijing-based brand is on a roll with MIUI 11 update. They have brought it to Mi Max 3, Redmi 7, Redmi 6 Pro, Redmi Y3, Mi 9, and Mi 8 Lite today. And, Redmi K20 Pro users received Android 10 as well.

Now, the table has been turned in the favour of Redmi Note 5 Pro. Xiaomi has rolled out MIUI 11 for the device with some significant features. Unfortunate for the users that they are not getting Android 10. Have a look at the changelog below.
