if u die die must buy this phone, get the 32gb
dont forget memory is not upgradeable.

i m only 'considering' this phone. Yea I will definitely get 32gb if i were to choose mi4i. But is it really STABLE?

I'm currently on MIUI 6.7.2, i can say it's stable enough for me.

It does feel sluggish at times.
Animation is sluggish at times. Launching apps sometimes take its own sweet time.

I'm coming from Snapdragon 801 before, and I could live with this phone

Alot did complaint of heating and/or battery drain issues after updating. I think xiaomi kinda messed up the updates. I never ran any updates hence mind is the stock MIUI 6.5.3 version which has one of the best battery life and less heating issue.
The phone can be laggy/hot if one stresses it out with high processing stuff.

to me this phone is a budget phone with slim body and fantastic screen. The specs are "just enough" to do basic photo and video viewing/you tubing. Camera hardware is medicore which i feel should have been improved.

For RM749, i never did regret purchasing my Mi4i. But i cannot say for others.
If i had RM1k budget for a phone i definitely recommend this phone.

maybe you can wait tomorrow and see how much is new redmi note 2 cost then only decide to buy mi4i !!! I currently in developer rom 5.10.22 and the heat issue is still there !!!!

If ain't broken, don't fix it.

it lags, and it lags a lot that is if you don't freeze its miui apps or go for cm

yup agreed! I dont have a reason to upgrade the firmware. so im not doing it.

by CM you meant cyanogenmod right? I think that's the plan for me now, buy a 2nd hand one, flash it with CM haha.

Any news about when MIUI7 will be available for mi4i?
I'm new to Android and just got my new mi4i recently, but have not started using it (lazy to explore and migrate from my BB yet), was wondering shall I wait for the MIUI7 update first then only migrate my things or it doesn't matter?

yeap that is a good choice as well although your camera will be subpar from that point on

So far after move to MIUI7, mi4i is getting better...

no more heating up issue....lagging is once a while...due to memory leak issue from lollipop maybe? or miui ram management itself?

before this i need to reboot everyday, if not sure lag like nobody biz...now no more reboot, if facing lag just clear the memory then will be ok back

mi4i has always been on lollipop, I think it is due to it being more optomized

it doesn't matter, upgrade is okay, downgrade then that would be an issue

Maybe I shd put it this way...lollipop with miui6 is suck...lollipop with miui7 is getting better

Ok noted with thanks

Pls take note my one is not miui official update...mine is EU mod version miui7

ohh tot ur already on miui7 official update. is on verge of giving up on my mi4i. the frequent lag & unresponsiveness is getting on my nerves. giving it one last chance with waiting for miui7 update. if that doesnt help redmi note 2 do sound tempting.

If you root it and with some help here and there things will get better or sell it to me for 300

Mi4i update to miui7 is available now
