Redmi note is the real shit. I just cant understand why so many olang buy it. Even redmi 1s is better -.-
I never try 1S but from my experience, Note really ain't that bad. Maybe because my previous phone was a Galaxy Nexus (dual core A9) and this phone already totally outperform it too much that I don't care about the lag anymore.

Hype and a lot people not even techcy and dont even knew the spec.
I know those things but I still settled for this phone. Why? Because of the price. If you ask... Why not 1S? I would say mainly because of the screen and that extra RAM. I want bigger screen (used to 5.5" screen) and also non-reflective screen. 1S screen is reflective as it's not fused together. I had the Lenovo A850+ with similar "grey" screen (not fused together also). It's so reflective that I almost can use it as a mirror (almost...) Besides that... The 2GB RAM does come in handy. I don't even bother to "swipe" apps away in Recent Apps now. Just let them be there.

redmi note really sucks mie ?
my mom want me to help her buy tomorrow because of big screen
but I saw mediatek processor
yet camera wise redmi 1s is much better
headache

How you sure 1S much better? Get both, try and show us the comparison only I believe

Anyway... If you want only Snapdragon, wait for the Redmi Note 4G. Not sure when will it arrive but since you want it so much, just wait la.

for mom ok la , for power user like us sure notice the lag n performance issue

Notice the lag and performance issue but... think about the price then everything is alright.
Actually... I strongly believe the hardware has that power to offer more. More towards Xiaomi optimization for this phone. Even quad core A7 can be very smooth (Moto G for example), why can't Octa core be that smooth? That extra 4 cores might not be used most of the time but still baseline, it has 4 cores that should act like a quad core chipset. With optimization (custom rom probably, since xiaomi probably won't care much), I think it can do better than those phones.

mediacrap is still mediacrap dun care how many core u have..
ayam once have the ninetology with mediacrap, sell it less than 1month usage..
compare to last time, redmi note mediacrap gps is ok lah, can lock on n stable (i comparing to other mediacrap devices gps, so dun fire me)
Ya... Now Mediatek GPS quite ok. Compared to my previous Galaxy Nexus, it's much better. Tested both on Lenovo A850+ and Redmi Note, similar GPS performance. Can lock to quite precise (3~5m) and quite fast to lock. I can lock even inside my room (maybe ceiling and roof too thin?)
