Welcome back guys, to another edition of the "Smartphone Versus Battle".

Hope y'all enjoyed the previous edition, where a 'budget' Umidigi Power 3 won against Transsion's 2020 Flagship smartphone, Camon 15 Pro.
That was indeed a walk over for Umidigi's Power House (Umidigi Power 3).

So, today we'll be having three 'smartphone Giants' Battle, head to head with eachother: Xiaomi Redmi Note 9 Pro vs Umidigi S5 Pro vs Samsung Galaxy a71.

And guys, this would definitely be more interesting than the previous edition.
So, grab some pop corns & enjoy!

nice thread. very captivating

Wow, side mounted fingerprint scanner?

I'm thinking of comparing the:
SAMSUNG GALAXY S20 ULTRA 5G
Vs
XIAOMI MI 10 PRO 5G.

What do you think guys?

Yeah now it's complete kudos you try well well for putting this together...

See, this is a comparison that makes sense. You dropped proper facts and specs.

Good job. Tag me in any other comparisons. The Umidigi is a great device tbh, but the RN8 Pro is just cheaper by about $20 so it offers better value for money.

If the A71 was about 120k it would've been an absolute steal. I hope the AxxS variants will have more considerable prices.

How can you guys compare under display finger print scanner to a side mounted finger print scanner

That technology alone is still expensive and why the price of the a71 is understandable compared to n9pro
