2 weeks ago i bought at 1k +....sad sad...
if mi3 officially sell below 950 will be really a blow ...
heard that samsung s5 market not so well compare to last time. i believe main reason was the pricing.
*
yup pricing and also the reliability is really not good for samsung phone...
battery life in S4 really no good, not sure about S5 though...

depends on how you store them most of my photos and files are stored in dropbox, so 16gb is enough for me. Also not really into heavy gaming and watching video on the phone, prefer the cinema or home theatre.
*
Well same to me... photos not all in the phone...
Apps around 2-3G I use... then 1.5G for music and another 1.5G for movies...
I still have another 4G for photos... and pls delete unwanted once... I can live with USB OTG cos I can put my unwanted photos in pendrive n plug in when needed...music also... now rarely watch movies and listen music... I have Asus T100 for that...

wow! Hua wei honor 3C selling for RM499 !

going to compete with Xiaomi RedMi, ZenFone 5 and even Moto G !

Really tempting for 1st timer but again... if u r intermediate or advance user u might fine the firmware outdated and the processor is just so so for multitasking.... hopefully 2G RAM will help but the bottle neck is at the processor sometimes...
After use P780 I temporary stop MTK chipset until it have 4.4 on stock firmware then I see... it will improve the overall experience vastly but if it still stuck there I do not see any point to get it at the moment...

if xiaomi3 no need to think... but if Redmi... i'll take a try at 2G Honor 3C...
used Lenovo P780, it might not be direct comparison but again... 1G RAM does not helps on multitasking, issue the previous apps will killed off to accommodate newly launched app.. my advice is if you really want a phone below RM500 then Honor 3C is your choice... clear choice is because of the RAM available...

but i'm holding out against MTK chipset now, will not buy now coz no matter what it is cheap and nice... it still cannot compare to Snadragon chipset... even MotoG also smoother coz of 4.4.2 Kit Kat now compare to those days in 4.3... but MTK still STUCKED at 4.2.2 yawn.gif which is a major issue... cos new version 4.4 UI is much better for 1G RAM device... if not Honor 3C certainly worth me to put my money on it NOW....

If you have higher budget, get other brand, OPPO Find 7 coming soon too.  brows.gif

too expensive... a phone around 1k is ok...
but OPPO range their price around 1.5k for high end (similar like Mi3)...
So i will not try...

QUOTE(ralfmars83 @ May 6 2014, 02:41 PM)
worth becaus it is cheaper than other brand.

it is not cheaper la... don misleading... it is MUCH cheaper... haha...

Oppo Find 7 is using Snapdragon 801 with LTE, and I'm sure there are other reason why the price is high.
*
if they announce Mi3S using the same chipset with around RM1.2k... what do you think...
it is the same thing happen with Mi3 with Samsung S4 and HTC One...

i think it will be very interesting on the pricing of Mi3S...

BTW what Mi3 is having now will not be outdated for another 2 yrs maybe...
so why spend the other few hundreds more where as u can get another extra phone with it...
even slow MTK chipset still selling like HOT Cakes in DirectD shop... so why pay more...
Thank is my single cents...

What you says make sense.

I think now phones is not just about specs anymore, it more about features that user can appreciate. OPPO Find 7/7a offers fast charging technology, removable battery, SD card slots etc, so I think it's a plus point.
*
i don mind cos i use it as 2nd phone... well after a while also u will use it it...
fast charging??? using bigger Amp charger faster lo... haha...

actually depends on ppl... i use MTK chipset as my primary phone b4...
it got pro and con...hard to justify, but it really perform nicely vs the $$$ u pay... rapid charging is a good function or not sti'l depends...
and all also depends how much u r willing to pay for the phone... for me the extra few hundreds to get that so call flagship is not that worth it now...

The power bank is small enough for me, and it's elegant and affordable!

Yup... using 1 imported for sometime around 2 months...
Good good aluminum case did help to cool down the heat...

I would survive with 16gb without external card because, all the photos taken by the camera will be automatically sync to my favourite cloud services, like flickr,onedrive,dropbox, etc...
My frequently used application wont be more than half of 16gb..
*
Agrees... I put 1G of music and my normally used apparently is not more than 2G... so left me around 7G for photos n stuff... n got OTG I can carry my small device which I put my mSD card to transfer or seek photos which I back up... I think with OTG I can live with it... y not...
Sorry I have a Win8.1 tablet to back up also... tongue.gif

No news about it yet. Even in Singapore, Taiwan and Hong Kong they only offer smartphones, powerbank, and accessories only.

i do not think they will launch it outside China... cos Copyright Issue...
they are streaming movies like QVOD (P2P Sharing) which is illegal...
