The photos have adequate colours
The 20MP single selfie camera with an LED flash also utilises AI to take
impressive bokeh selfies. Therefore, if you don’t want to be locked in a closed
ecosystem, it is advisable to stay away from the iPhone SE. There’s a portrait
mode that is pretty decent at giving out bokeh shots with naturally blurred
backgrounds. Apple’s exceptional support for iPhones is proven, which means that
if you prefer keeping your phone with you for longer periods of time, then the
iPhone SE has you covered for two more years, which is certainly better than
Xiaomi’s single-year support for its midrangers. We see which one’s better.
However, Android isn’t the most secure platform and therefore, you keep on
getting exposed to news alerts of another malware attacking Android smartphones
over a particular China
plastic fork Suppliers year. It adorns the modern 18:9 form factor, which
also makes it easier to hold than its predecessors. The open-source nature of
Android OS (not the latest one though) on the Redmi Note 5 Pro gives you access
to millions of apps, games and launchers, both from the Google PlayStore and
various third-party sources. The photos have adequate colours and decent
contrast with adequate detailing. Since its made by Xiaomi, there has to be some
element inspired by Apple’s premium iPhones and the Note 5 Pro is no exception —
it borrows the iPhone X’s camera module design. The Redmi Note 5 Pro is a
well-built smartphone for its price, but the sheer brilliance of the iPhone SE’s
aesthetics make it an absolute winner in this category. The iPhone SE, on the
other hand, has a comparatively smaller 1,624mAh battery. However, for
everything else, the Redmi Note 5 Pro takes the lead in the camera department.
The Redmi Note 5 Pro from Xiaomi is one of the latest ones in this segment that
offers commendable everyday performance paired with good cameras in a reasonably
well-built metal body.Mind you, the iPhone SE’s display has noticeably better
colours than the Redmi Note 5 Pro, making it suitable for checking out
photo-centric social platforms such as Instagram and Pinterest.However, we have
a subjective winner — it’s the iPhone SE.9-inch full HD+ IPS LCD panel with an
18:9 aspect ratio makes it look gigantic when compared to the iPhone SE’s puny
4-inch IPS LCD display with a resolution of 640x1136 pixels. Additionally,
there’s no bokeh-based portrait mode, which could be a deal-breaker for those
obsessed with photography.Winner: Apple iPhone SEDisplay:This is where the
scales are naturally tipped towards the Redmi Note 5 Pro. Therefore, if you
wanted an iPhone X-lookalike on a budget, then this is one of your best bets.
However, with a smaller display and a highly optimised power-efficient OS, the
iPhone SE can last almost a full day on a single charge under moderate usage,
which isn’t on par with the Note 5 Pro’s battery life but is still impressive
nonetheless. Due to the presence of a custom version of Android, one can
customise the smartphone to their heart’s content with themes, wallpapers and
even the notification panel.Winner: Redmi Note 5 ProBattery:Xiaomi’s Redmi
series has always been about bigger batteries and the Note 5 Pro with its bigger
4000mAh battery is no exception. However, the iPhone SE can shoot 4K videos at
30fps, making it one of the few phones in this range to shoot 4K videos. But,
the results not on par with the Note 5 Pros camera. Most of that
mega-performance is down to the GPU pushing lesser pixels on the SE’s display.
However, put the iPhone SE beside the Note 5 Pro and you can immediately feel
the difference in the build.1-based MIUI 9.The iPhone SE, on the other hand, has
a 12MP rear camera and while it takes good photos, it is showing its age. Even
after two years, the iPhone SE aesthetically impresses us immensely with its
metal-glass body. The Redmi Note 5 Pro proudly flaunts its good display,
long-lasting battery and a decent camera, but the iPhone SE offers better value,
superior performance and a superb build.However, Android isn’t one of the most
secure platforms, which is where Apple’s iOS shines. It runs on Android 7. Add
to that Xiaomi’s persistent addition of bloatware over the time and you end up
with a software experience that gets stale over the course of time. The Redmi
Note 5 Pro proudly flaunts its good display, long-lasting battery and a decent
camera, but the iPhone SE offers better value, superior performance and a superb
build. On a full charge with moderate usage, the Note 5 Pro can last you easily
for a day and a half.If you are in the market for a midrange smartphone, both
the Redmi Note 5 Pro and the iPhone SE present themselves as irresistible
choices in their own sweet ways. The iPhone SE is presently running on the
latest iOS 11.Winner: Apple iPhone SECamera:This is an area where the Redmi Note
5 Pro takes a marginal edge. While the base variant starts at Rs 13,999, the
top-end variant for Rs 16,999 is equipped with 6GB of RAM, making one of the
first ones to offer colossal amounts of RAM for easy multitasking.2MP selfie
sensor is good enough for video calls. Why? Because an iPhone holds better value
over an Android smartphone any given day, especially when you consider the fact
that Apple’s two-year-old midrange offering can still battle it out with the
best Android midrange smartphone from the present. And, at the end of the day,
it’s an iPhone — a name that’s enough to raise your collar in the society. As we
stated in our review, the Note 5 Pro is a fast smartphone that doesn’t show lags
or stutters in daily usage scenarios. The 4-inch form factor makes it a joy to
use for those prefer a compact smartphone — one can reach all four corners of
the display without needing the other hand to hold the phone.But the most
important thing is the price — the iPhone SE costs Rs 18,999 for the base 32GB
variant and the Redmi Note 5 Pro costs Rs 16,999 for the top-end 6GB+64GB
variant.Unless you shoot 4K videos a lot, the iPhone SE is recommended. Little
details such as chamfered edges, the circular buttons and speaker grille make
the Note 5 Pro look like a toy in comparison.However, Apple’s budget offering
from 2016 — the iPhone SE, has seen massive price cuts over the years and
presently retails for Rs 18,999 on certain e-commerce platforms. Games open
faster than the Note 5 Pro and you can multitask with 4-5 apps with ease — no
lags or stutters noticeable. The rear is dominated by a metal panel, accompanied
by two glass sections on top and bottom. The midrange smartphone segment is
presently full of tempting offerings from the Android universe.Design, Build:The
Redmi Note 5 Pro is one of the most premium looking midrange smartphones you can
presently buy in the market. This makes choosing the winner way more difficult
as both have their own share of pros and cons. And one of the most important
features of an iPhone rests perfectly in the centre — the Apple logo. The
narrow-bezel-display surely grabs attention.3 and rocks an Apple A9 dual-core
CPU along with 2GB of RAM, which may look insufficient on paper.Winner: Redmi
Note 5 ProValue:This is where the scales are balanced for both the parties. The
front 1. Dubbed as the most powerful 4-inch smartphone, the iPhone SE has been
known to be a smooth performer over its lifecycle and carries the prestigious
Apple logo at the back. You have got bigger phablets, camera-focused phones and
some with premium glass-metal bodies. And as for updates, midrange Xiaomi phones
only get to enjoy one major Android OS update, that too a year after Google
releases it for the market. The Note 5 Pro’s 12MP+5MP dual rear camera takes
noticeably good pictures with natural colours, adequate details and decent low
light performance. However, nerds will know that iOS is extensively optimised
for every Apple device and therefore, its performance figures are on par with
the iPhone 6S, which is no slouch by today’s standards.Winner: Redmi Note 5
ProPerformance:The Redmi Note 5 Pro is one of the first smartphones in India to
sport Qualcomm’s latest performance focused Snapdragon 636 chipset accompanied
by 6GB of RAM and 64GB of storage.The iPhone SE focuses on the Note 5 Pro’s
shortcomings here — an almost stable OS experience followed by timely security
updates. The classic iPhone design still feels attractive, despite carrying
chunky bezels all around along with a Home button. You can plug in flash drives
and even a conventional mouse as well, which almost makes it a portable
computer.The iPhone SE’s discounted price puts it in direct competition with the
top-spec Redmi Note 5 Pro. Since iOS is a closed ecosystem, the iPhone SE offers
fewer customisation options to its users, which is good enough for those looking
for a no-nonsense user interface. The display renders natural colours with
average contrast and brightness. The rear is made out of a metal and plastic
combo (metal panel and plastic caps to aid radio reception). Therefore, you pick
up any game from the App Store and you can it expect it to work effortlessly on
the iPhone SE. The big 5.(source) apple, xiaomi, android, ios, iphone. However,
which one is a better choice out of the two? We pit the Xiaomi against the baby
iPhone in a head-to-head. With the iPhone SE, you will be forced to stay with
Apple’s services for a better experience (such as Siri’s integration with Apple
Music) instead of choosing third-party ones, which Android allows.Winner: iPhone
SEConclusion:Once we sum up the positives and negatives of both the Redmi Note 5
Pro and the iPhone SE, both of them turn out to be equally impressive. Whether
you are reading messages, playing games or watching movies, the experience is
simply more immersive on the Redmi Note 5 Pro. While one may argue that MIUI’s
monthly updates add new features and fix issues, the newer releases bring with
them new issues and tend to slow down the device over the course of time.
However, iOS is a walled garden and therefore, you will have to adapt to iOS’s
way instead of making the phone adapt to you. In fact, the iPhone SE scored an
AnTuTu score of 134358, which is drastically more than the Redmi Note 5 Pro’s
score of 112649. Resource-intensive games run pretty well, albeit not in the
highest settings. You can download songs and transfer them to other Android
users in whichever way you fancy — Bluetooth and Wi-Fi sharing. The iPhone SE
came to India as a premium midrange smartphone and therefore carried Apple’s
trademark flagship-class build quality and finish. iOS is tastefully designed
with a polished user interface, with a focus on small conveniences that are
relevant to the user in daily usage scenarios
