QUOTE(cynical66 @ May 25 2014, 12:52 AM) I'm using both iPhone 5s & Mi3 now...well iphone 5s still wins...the camera, speed, etc..the only mi3 winning is the design, screen & pricing..maybe its because i have used iphones for 4 years now (since iphone 4) & i get bored with iphone design.. Well say! I still can say iOS still is stabil OS compare to android , i think i also will keep mine i5 even Mi3 reached. The screen ~ 5S still wins in terms of contrast & colors, mi3 win the size..but, ips screen is not a screeen to be reckon with..mi3 may lose on colors & clarity, but still wins sony z1..lol Built Quality - iphone 5s significantly wins. Xiaomi mi3 may have a very nice built quality for a rm889 phone though. Camera ~ come on, its the Apple iphone 5S. there nowhere mi3 could pass over pic clarity & quality. Design ~ mi3 MAY HAVE copying phone design (a lil bit, just like htc one, dun tell me it isn't for the sake of wanna win)...BUT,i really like mi3's design, more than sony z1/z2 & even more than my iphone 5s..earlier i thought i would not like silver/grey & prefer the black 1..once i opened the box today & spend just 2-3 minutes, i would prefer silver/grey mi3 now..its silver/grey color added with black front touch screen & panel, i'm not sure why, but it keeps me thinking of lightsaber or things in Star Wars Movies..not sure why.. Gaming ~ dun think any android or any os smart phones could win over ios cos game apps are so many to choose on ios. when it comes to gaming, 5s never fail me for even once, except small screen. I still find not time to properly test my mi3 yet on games, but i bet it would be nice, if not win over iphone 5s. Conclusion ~ MI3 is a PERFECT smartphone with RM889 pricing, i found many flagships from many brands won't win over mi3, be it design, specs, pricing & even the box (maybe i love recyclable box design)...Instead of PAINFULLY taking out our hard-earned RM2400 for a "plastic" phone with just extra water resistance feature, which i dun & will not even spill water on any of my phones, i strongly recommended Xiaomi Mi3. With iPhone 5S, which RM2300 & RM900 device respectively, if i'm a buyer without any phone on hand, or i would like to upgrade my old phones, i would choose mi3. RM900 wont hurt my pocker if i dun like it. RM2k+ is just too high for many. As an avid iPhone user, my 1st intention of mi3 was to test it since i'm curious why the hell this brand is so special, & at just RM889, if i dun like it i'll just sell it to someone. But if its great, i will sell out my iphone 5s..BUT NOW, i decided to keep both & gonna try another set for my wifey..hehehe |

Same. I also using 5S as secondary phone and formerly Z1 Compact as primary phone. Z1C too many unsolvable problems for daily usage ranging from frequent lost of network to weird auto vibration after each call. I solved this vibration problem with an auto run script but at the expense of battery drain. And don't forget, SOD - screen of death. Very frequent. Next is flash bleed. KNN! Speaker also lousy, kept producing crackle at each notification. Can't believe I paid RM 14xx for it about a month ago new original set. Even bought an expensive dock and QX case for it, the SPA-ACX4 from Japan!The screen ~ 5S still wins in terms of contrast & colors, mi3 win the size..but, ips screen is not a screeen to be reckon with..mi3 may lose on colors & clarity, but still wins sony z1..lol Built Quality - iphone 5s significantly wins.

But if its great, i will sell out my iphone 5s..BUT NOW, i decided to keep both & gonna try another set for my wifey..hehehe Now, for RM 889, enter the Mi3, same specs as Z1C except for screen, modem, camera, memory card slot, battery and size. Speaker is clean and no crackles. Built-in notification and ringer tones also nice and clean. Very high quality to boot comparable to 5S. Camera better than Z1C depending on light conditions. Still loses to L920 in close up details. Unfortunately, the screen protector sucks. I wasted 3 pieces due to bubbles. Going to use glass only. |

Anyone knows where to get one? Gorrila Glass 2 or 3. Just touch it and feel, it's silky smooth. Ever since sammy tab 7 edi like this. At least that's how I distinguish normal to Gorilla. Problem will be oil as it will stick to screen and will fool the phone into thinkin those patch of oil is our touch which kinda bothers me. So after talkin on phone I have to rub it clean else the touch screen will go haywire. Another way to fix is press power den it will readjust but again issue is with the oil patch. Btw, this phone no gorilla glass rite?? Well sp sticking is all patience and good clean environment. My fav place is during bath or b4 bath make the whole toilet stimy, den standby sum salophene tape, or double side tape or anything which is sticky but dun leave marks. Best is actually b4 u peel off the original protection sticker, u edi standby sp den juz peel off and stick on. Usually it's best but standby tape to stick dust n stuff. I take 10 - 30 minutes max to stick one phone. It's quite long if u want a perfect screen. Btw so far I am still sourcing for SP nillkin H+ seems best now ? |

It is best not to immediately stick on after peeling off as there will be residues at the edge of the screen left by the previous sp. Prevent using the piece of cloth that comes with the sp. Those are usually low quality cloth and will leave a lot of dust on your screen. Use a spectacles cloth instead and slowly wipe out the residues in a vertical direction. Don't make circles or irregular patterns as small sands may stuck in your cloth and you end up wiping scratches on your screen. Then use the salophene tape like you said and stick off any visible dust. Normally any room without winds and fans will do just fine. Provided you are careful enough. You can also buy a bottle of zippo and pour it on the screen to clean away your residues more thoroughly. Well sp sticking is all patience and good clean environment.

This is based on my own working experiences. |

QUOTE(Cynox @ May 25 2014, 01:34 AM) yes, Glass-M is cheap and good. Applied it on my Note 3 and Ipad Air, still look perfect after few months. Hmmm, Glass-M should be got Mi3 ya. I still prefer Glass-M cuz i try alot Glass SP , only Glass-M is cheap and nice. Tried Remax , nillkin , and some few brand , from start it's okay , but use for alittle long time , that oleophobic coating is like totally gone , finger print also easy saw already. While that Glass-M should won't like that. Remax is worst than nillkin. This post has been edited by zhiyuanchan: May 25 2014, 01:42 AM |

Take a picture and share.The camera module is a whole piece. Therefore its the lack of QC from Xiaomi side, should reject these defects camera from going into production. |
