Okay, this phone came on 26th of june, delivery great and on-time.The phone is very good, had no problem till now, Games have been played like brothers:a tale of two sons(some lag), the dark knight(no lag) & asphalt 8(very min. lag, only while drifting) in it and i can tell a few things abt it. Which are(with numbers):
1. Design and build quality - 8/10(screen in not CGG, you really gotta buy tempered glass for it.)
2. Display - 10/10(the best i have seen below 10k)
3. Battery Life - 9/10(can...

Pros:
* Exceptional Battery life
* Very good Fingerprint sensor
* IR blaster
* Excellent Display
* no lag, smooth performance
* no heating issues
* All necessary sensors are present incl. gyroscope n Magnetic sensor

Cons:
* free RAM is lesser.. MiUI is kinda heavy skin..
* takes a while to charge the device
* no gorilla glass protection
* Camera quality is average.

The phone is very good and I am happy from WS retail store I am using redmi note 3 from 1month.
1. If you want a camera phone then choose another one, because it has a average camera even it has 16 MP camera.
2. Mobile is heating sometimes when you play Asphalt 8 or any heavy game.
3. It heats up when you charge it.

But I like it it is a good phone

Just like you I too did read many reviews and found many critical ones too. I should pull off the curtains from those.
The phone does get hot -- I admit -- but that is not like "HEATING PROBLEM" sort of stuff.
If you play Temple run for 45 mins then the phone will get hot, obviously, but not like "YOU CANNOT HOLD IT, YOU CAN MAKE OMELETTE ON IT....bla bla bla".

The phone GETS HOT only WHILE CHARGING -- I start charging at 13%, at 77% it is really hot, at 85% it starts to cool off, at 100% i...

Good phone good features ..Overall a best option in this budget ...Hybrid tray is not working properly....It has better look than note 4.....But not in other features.....So u should go for note 4....

Budget phone.
I am using Redmi note3 from 10 months.
Overall the phone is good but I faced some problems
1. Sometimes it restarts automatically.
2. When I update software it does not accept screen password neither fingerprint.

Instead of these phone is working fine and it's better than others in this price range.

I have been using this phone since 1 year now. This is honest review.
Battery life of this phone is amazing never had a problem with power draining out.
Cam's are decent enough, not great pics but good enough during day low light imaging is pathetic.
Performance of the phone has been roller coaster ride for me sometimes good and sometimes just headache. (Internal storage and ram also matters my suggestion is to buy 32gb version)
Build quality amazes me always till now... for this price rang...

Great phone with great battery .. Finger print sensor amazing very fast.. Camera is Ok .. Lenovo phone camera quality is better than mi .. In this budget Mi is great .. You can also go for Lenovo k5 note .. Both phone are superb

Probably the best phone in India under 10000 is this! Lots of features loaded and fabulous specs, the best part is the battery life that runs about 1 and a half day after charging completely (if used normally on 4g). No lags after using a month but slight lagging would be noticed sometimes. Camera is decent and could have been better. On average, 750 MB ram would be free on average (after using too much for 2 months) But overall, go for this phone blindly if you want a lot of features in norm...

Awesome product but i suggest all of you to good for its 32Gb Model which is far more better than this... otherwise this is also superb..GO FOR IT
