It will depend on how well they do in Singapore because no lte will cause a lot of people not to buy the phone in Singapore especially one that cost almost 3 times more than Hongmi.

Any user feedbacks? I only see people selling after few days of buying it.. Not a good sign..

Xiaomi already announce on Facebook Singapore selling at March 7 but slightly higher price of SGD$419

64gb price difference should be rm300

pls post your feedback after you got yours, still no feedback yet for lowyat users.

ok looking forward to read your mini review, I wonder why so many users buy and sell off this phone after few days. One user said the top and bezel too big, he prefers mi2s.

Dont like them using this type of marketing, they don't have enough stocks to begin with. Like this I come out with one unit unknown prototype also considered sold out.

Did you manage to find any accessories for the phone? Eg case cover, screen protector. Quite worried without any protection the phone may be easily scratched.

thanks will check it out, aliexpress I don't really trust, if not mistaken they are linked to alibaba. Kena cheated before lost RM2k.. they didnt send anything after I ordered.

Who is selling it at 1199?

Really? Thanks feel safer then.

What do u need to flash back, just the updater app?

What's your feedback on this phone?

the original rom works fine. just install google play yourself. just got a unit few hours ago. Will post my review after a day of usage.

Got it for rm1259 directd. Takes some getting used to. The original keyboard has Chinese words so it was quite confusing to use, but after installing Google Play I reinstalled SwiftKey and now it's much better.

First bad feedback on this phone.. It's the first phone I returned after using for 1 hour. The screen was bleeding at the sites which could only notice if the screen was white. Still very annoying. Luckily shop allowed me to swap on the spot but only once. Boxes are sealed without Google Play but u can easily install.

Yes maybe we can do non profit bulk purchase for accessories. I'm looking for screen protector and maybe a few casings.

There is one firmware update after starting the phone and after installing Google Play it works like any Android. Now everything feels buttery smooth. Compared to Moto G with Kitkat that I used for a week, this is still smoother maybe because of the superior specs.

Any feedback on battery usage?

It's not rooted. Warranty go back to the shop. Just make sure u check properly before leaving the shop. Closer to Note 3 will be Lenovo K910. Screen size almost same. Xiaomi is smaller at 5in. I chose Xiaomi because wanted something different and wanted to try their ROM.

Cons like I mentioned I experienced led light bleeding on white screen at the lower left bottom. Luckily can exchange 1 to 1 on the same day. AP still better than buying online because u will have to wait much longer if anything goes wrong.

Almost same price. Rm40.

search under lelong.my or lowyat.net garage sale.

Now I regret I didn't learn how to read Chinese when I was a kid. A lot of bundled software in Chinese that I got no clue about.

Will try to take some pictures soon, I hope it will be decent.
