imo, it depends on how u use the phone. if u r looking for a long-term phone to use, i suggest u go for mi3. the spec can last u at least 1-2 years before u r "outdated", because S800 processor should serve your purpose over mediatex processor in term of performance/intensive gaming. it is worth to get such a good spec phone @ rm769. if u r just to try out the phone, u r welcome to try both because soon u sell off them n try the new devices.
