I picked up a Redmi Note 7 about a week ago. It's not perfect, but I'm happy enough with it for the money.
Not been able to test absolutely everything as been on hols from the day after I got it, but my opinion so far is :
Screen is nice if you can live with the camera notch, doesn't bother me.
Battery life is good, I'm a lite to moderate user and I'm getting a couple of days to a full charge.
It's nippy enough, my main reason for upgrade was the sluggishness of my previous Nexus 5, yeah I get my moneys worth out of a handset.
Camera seems really good for the price.
Really can't stand MIUI, it's lack of an app drawer is just nuts, do some people really prefer that? I'm evaluating launchers already so that's not a biggie.
My only real gripes at the moment are the notifications that disappear after a few seconds (hoping that gets fixed in an update or I might consider alternative rooms) and intermittent Bluetooth pass through of notifications to my garmin watch (works a bit and then stops until phone rebooted). I've seen a few suggestions for setting changes that might help with the watch but as I'm in a tent in South Wales I'd rather drink beer and sort the phone out when I get back home.
