You guys can start posting after this post

And back cover

Wow looks like Xiaomi free bundle is quite nice wooo ... too bad i also already order one from Lazada.

Hope there will be only one 1s v2 thread. Haha.

Anyway I think the latest promotion for 1s is very good. Seems like they have abundant of stock for 1s and want to finish it fast.

No time is the right time. Buy whenever you feel like to.

New model incoming.
Maybe Redmi2S?

Yeah .. the only one i really need is screen protector. Case & headphone can buy later when i feel like buying .. hardly use that extra battery & charger also.

Redmi 2> 2s> 3>3GS>4>4s>5>5s>6L/6s

Yep earphones are really tempting. Earphones for free!

the earphone quite good.
but extra battery, use or not use it will start detoriate

oh well,
buy at lazada rm377, at least the balance rm42 can use to buy sp
and cover

xiaomi very smart, not selling powerbank tomorrow
give good bundle for 1s
should be selling like hot cake tomorrow

So i have to buy my own battery charger if i buy this phone from Lazada ?? Save that RM40 now & rugi lagi banyak later ... shit !!

Yup, I really love the earphone. Feels very worth the price I paid for it.

Anyhow I just purchase an extra battery when Xiaomi was having sales last few weeks at RM12.50 - just to act as backup or spare if anything happen.

By the way if i buy only RM10 screen protector from xiaomi they also pos to me without extra charge ??

Battery charger? IINM the charger + USB cable will be included in the box together with the phone. The battery charger that be given as part of the bundle is the charger for extra battery for 1s. You may visit Xiaomi My for more info.

Oic then that battery charger is useless to me .. i always charge the battery without take out from the phone
