Its better the 3gb for multitasking and save data. Remember that this phone dont bring microsd slot.
Can someone confirm if the ROMs for redmi note 3 will work for redmi note 2 ?
If the HW is so similar as it seems they should be compatible...
What I don't like in note 3 is the non removable battery and no SD.
definitely the 3GB version.. you can get it quite cheap on geekbuying its only 209$

I think you can take even 2gb... If you don't play heavy games and not multi

Agreed, I have tested huawei mate 7 with 2Gb ram and it' runs more smoothly than my Samsung galaxy note 3 with 3GB RAM. 2 GB RAM is enough if system is optimised and without unnecessary bloatware. However 3gb xiaomi versions will be easier to sell in the future than 2gb
all buddies here at xda i would like to know what is the difference between 64bit os and 32 bit os. and pros and cons of each os.
as i am seeing some development of 64 bit os for redmi 2/prime
please kindly reply those who knows.
note that i googled but didn't got satisfactory answer.
For 2GB (Prime) variant it's good. For 1GB, it's a hell.
Explain:
The 64-bit OS is based on ARMv8 Aarch64, with many improvements in instruction set, specially the SIMD instructions and about memory access. But it consumes more RAM. I flashed the MIUI8 arm64 in my Redmi 2 1GB. The whole system is blazing fast, stronger in benchmarks, snappy as ever. But after installing some apps, the device becomes slow because low RAM.
Maybe with a lightweight AOSP rom could take away the RAM usage issue and receive the full benefits of the newer arch. While it doesnt occurs, I'm very satisfied with my RR 5.8.2. Stable, snappy and fully customized.

You are wrong, also there is no performance improvements from 32 to 64bits (maybe better ram management and new cpu instruction set avaliable), I also seem to have the Redmi 2 with 1gb of ram, from all the 3 64 bits rom I noticed no performance decrease, maybe a improvement on the nougat arm64, I'm getting over 31000 on antutu, 560 and 1600 on geekbench, but arm64 is really nice to redmi 2, since it will unlock the support for some apps and games, also a prolonged support to when the normal 32bit arm art no longer be supported (just a theory of course).

I saw performance improvements between MIUI8 32 x MIUI8 64. Look: there is really many changes in floating point instructions (arm64 supports double-precision fp, for example) and memory access. The gap is around 10~20%. I saw it in another phone, Doogee X5 MAX Pro. After Aug/16 the stock ROM was converted to x32. And performance decreased slightly. Antutu score decreased arount 15%. So, arm64 have performance improvements over arm32.

Are you using another device? from what I know this is redmi 2, we have a different source from other devices, and don't trust benchmarks, they are always wrong, a 64bit OS for redmi 2 is a good deal, there aren't fps improvements, but overall ram management, smoothness, and a really high decrease in stutters is very visible.

What ROM are you speaking? I flashed in the past and the RAM management was terrible. The phone froze for 10 seconds to become "live" again. There is a AOSP/LOS based ROM build in ARM64 to make real-world tests, or have we only MIUI one?
About another device: was the only time I could see side-by-side the ARMv8 and ARMv7 performance in the same setup. And ARMv8 aarch64 was faster, snappier. Not only in benchmarks, but in real-world scenario

I'll do it.
Where is the ARM64 CAF-AOSP? There is only the ARM one in the thread

Search on the comments Pirej posted a link for a 64 rom
A little help, I am in doubt about the 4x and 4 pro / prime, I have some questions
1- I will notice a lot of day-to-day performance difference between a snapdragon 435 (28nm) at 1.4ghz and a 625 (14nm) at 2.0ghz
2 - being the 4x / 4 encounter with versions of 4gb ram and 64gb of storage and the 4Pro 3gb ram and 32gb, 4gb of ram would help in the performance of the 4 / 4X?
3- In 32GB versions, when starting the first time, how much storage is left in the device?
1. You won't notice performance difference in day-to-day use
2. 4GB ram won't be any deal breaker, as 4x can't handle heavy apps very well.
3. About 21GB free.
The prime Is better than X.
But they stop making them like half year ago And there will be no upgrade on A7 or A8
If you can live with bigger screen than i suggest you the redmi note 4 global (mido). Same hw as prime, 4gb ram and miui9 with a7
My take on this is go for any version with the 635, the price difference is like 20/30€ and you get 3gb instead of 2gb ram
The Note 4x has alot of ROM support like LOS oficial, and has 5'5" screen só it's wonderfull for videos
I personally like the prime best because it's 5". Where the Note versions are just a tad to big for fast 1hand daily tasks
