IMHO, 4.5-4.7 inch screen is the best.
Big enough to play games and surf internet nicely, but not that super big till it look awkward holding it.

Too small, and we'll be slightly uncomfortable to type messages.
Then had to turn sideway for bigger keyboard... which is... meh...

How do plan to calibrate the batt?

I will collect mine this weekend. Basic Turbo.

Xiaomi Mi3 is just damn awesome....

You know with the joining of Hugo Barra... It wont be long when Xiaomi will be world wide available just like Lenovo or Huawei.
A serious plus for us in malaysia.

What is the fuss with LTE guys?
I'm using 3G and even that is not all places covered.
But when it does, it still as fast as i think enough.
Plus this is not Unifi. Fast with a limited amount of Data allocated is not an ideal combination.

And with the price around RM1100+-, i dont really care much about LTE as it already has premium build and spec.

Magnesium alloy body + Snapdrgn 800 + 2GB Ram + 16GB Rom + 3050maH + 13mp Sony f/2.2 rear camera wit sapphire glass and dual LED

But i still gonna wait until it is officially available here. because if it is not, then the price will jack up to rm1500++

nothing to rush.

Got my Jiayu G4 Basic Turbo yesterday.

Will give it a run for a week before judging anything about it.

The main screen is like that because i use MiHome Launcher.
You can mod it to whatever you want.
I still playing around to choose suitable icons.

Jiayu g4 officially use Lewa OS Rom.

RM820

The price seems to vary according to country.
Official distributor shop in Germany sell it as high as 239€ = RM1050+-

While some online seller $235.99 = RM782 +-

I wonder if this year will be more kind to us. Most upper tier chinese phones are already coming to malaysia officially.

We know we gonna have:

1. Xiaomi
2. Oppo
3. TCL/Alcatel

And even the more mainstream Brand also becoming more attractive, price and spec:
1. Moto G
2. Lenovo
3. LG

Any brand else that i might forgot?
