Things I like
The device fits comfortably in your hand.
Camera quality is way better you can imagine for this low price.
Screen is protected by very durable glass - this phone falls from my pocket and purse a few times, but there are no scratch on the screen.

Things I don't like
When I play Pokemon GO on this device, I can't use all AR+ functions, because RedMi Note 7 either lacks a gyroscope, or gyroscope is somehow locked.
RedMi Note 7 doesn't have a NFC module, so if you like to pay in store with your phone - you can't
I pick a version of RedMi Note 7 with 16GB of internal memory, and 7,49GB is wasted on "system memory". It's ridiculous.
About a year after buying the phone I was forced to perform reset to factory settings, because device became so slow and laggy its undescribable.
MiUi 12 is out since april 27 2020, but RedMi Note 7 still doesn't receive an automatic update.

Overall Ratings:

Verdict
That's a good smartphone for its price, but if you have more money, I'd recommend to buy newer model (for example RedMi Note 9)
