If the Get Deal button gives a higher price then use the link in post #1 of this thread.
Not a huge fan of GearBest personally but this seems to have decent specs for the price.
Was around £120 recently but the price has dropped again.

I'm not very tech savvy with phones and stuff. I currently have the Elephone P8000 and I love it. I'm currently in the market and I've been looking at upgrading to the P9000.
If anybody could, without mocking me (if it's obvious) would this phone be the better choice over the P9000? I know the Elephone boasts 4GB ram, but I've read on XDA that's pretty much irrelevant on an Android device due to that only really used for keeping silly amounts of apps open at a time. Also, I found the fingerprint scanner to be faultless on the P8000, does anybody know how it performs on the XiaoMi Redmi 3 Pro/P9000?
Cheers guys.

Honestly it depends. It's a better brand, that's for sure but the screen is smaller and uses a lower resolution.
The CPU and GPU will be better in this though. All in all this is probably the better phone but it will be a trade off at the same time. If you want to keep the higher res and bigger screen maybe look at this model instead.
I've looked at both and I'd go for the p9000. Runs Marshmallow natively, more ram will help, better screen and had nfc which for me is a deal breaker.

I ordered an Elephone, I must have pressed the wrong button and ended up with an elephant, need to buy a bigger house now!

Ah yes. I didn't notice the smaller screen size. I would ideally like to keep the 5.5", I appreciate the advice.
I'd assume I wouldn't notice a significant difference dropping from 3gb of ram to 2gb?

Yeah I know but I don't know why. I think HUKD's referral system may be breaking the link unfortunately.
