XZU uses older S800 processor for WCDMA version. Mi3 uses newest version of S800 for WCDMA.

I hate the MIUI launcher. Already replaced with Nova. Much faster.

I actually liked it, getting bored with Nova.

I prefer to sort all my apps in alphabetical order. No option to do this under MIUI. Too lazy to sort manually.

Honestly, I couldn't be bothered with LTE. My Z1C very unstable with LTE to begin with. Now always on 3G.

Maxis. Also in KL / PJ. Many times kept losing network or need to switch to airplane mode constantly to get connected.

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..
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!

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.
