Outglassed does not mean outclassed There are some who have pointed out that the Z1 Pro’s plastic back makes it inferior to the Glass one of the Note 7 Pro, which appears more premium. Well, not in our books. For us, the Z1 Pro is definitely a more striking device visually than the Redmi Note 7. Both phones have gradient finish backs (although our black model of the Note 7 Pro is the only one in the series which does not – strange are the ways of review units), but we just felt that the Z1 Pro was far more striking while the Note 7 Pro was too understated....

Thankfully, on popular demand and requests, one of the chief developers of cLock – David van Tonder – has released the widget on the Play Store under its original name – Chronus....
