Redmi Note 5 Pro/Ai Global Gets MIUI 10 V10.0.2.0.OEIMIFH update

Xiaomi started rolling out the V10.0.2.0.OEIMIFH stable ROM update for Redmi Note 5 Pro/Ai Global. Android security patch level is the same as previous update.

The Whatsapp app icon badge is fixed. I have no idea what's that camera fix is about on the changelog.

Camera

Below are some sample photos I've taken before and after the firmware update. I'll be comparing photos between V10.0.2.0.OEIMIFH and V10.0.1.0.OEIMIFH. I did not test the front facing camera as I rarely use it.

All photos are taken in:

1. Auto mode ( unless stated otherwise )
2. Picture quality is High
3. Contrast, saturation and sharpness is Normal
4. All photos are taken 45 cm away( from the nearest object ); phone is placed on a fixed stand and position.
5. Auto exposure settings is center-weighted.
6. Light intensity near the objects are about 160 lux ( measured with Lux Meter by Doggo apps ). So it's considered below average lighting condition.

The white balance is adjusted using the white tip on the jewel-shaped puzzle as a reference, giving the image a subtle overall improvement.

The HDR on RN5 seems to have a big impact in low light conditions, so make sure you turn HDR on when taking photos in those conditions.

Sandisk Ultra Flair USB 3.0 - CZ73 32GB

Needed a few flash drive and got the Sandisk Ultra Flair USB 3.0 flash drive. Wanted a flash drive that is cheap and non-retractable design, so the Sandisk Ultra Flair CZ73 32GB seems to fit my needs.

The Sandisk Ultra Flair is smaller and slimmer than the standard flash drives.

Benchmark

The Sandisk Ultra Flair USB 3.0 was tested twice on a desktop with Windows 10.

Transferring one 1GB file from desktop to the flash drive (write speed).

Transferring 100 files from desktop to the flash drive (write speed).

The flash drive or any other types of storage will decrease in writing speed when there are many files.
