The front camera is only 4mp.

Of course, we know MP is not the most important thingy but as a flagship, was expecting something closer to 8MP

If the AP set is easy to patch Google apps,  then I'll get this instead of the S7.

Come on DirectD! Get the pro version! biggrin.gif

If direct d bring it, price will be more than 2k for sure

Early adopters always pay a premium

Better to wait

This tread is so quiet.

Maybe cos have not launch yet

In days when Mi3 was launched, within a day, would be on page 50...

But only page 15...

Does the SD820 kill the Exynos 8890? Just realized that SD820 only quad core..

Number of cores not as important as how efficient they are

Apple on duo core already whack the old 810 right

It does not pay to be an early adopters of xiaomi.

For Apple, Samsung, you just need to line up

But xiaomi, you suffer a bloody nose paying through it

Wait for official version is better

If it does not come then buy another brand

Yes, did not realise G4 only 1.6k, from 2.2k++

SD808 is good enough, replaceable battery, dual SIM with sd card is very tempting

Read the g4 ,most of the ppl suffer from mobo burn after update to mm, most of the user jump ship after that

The battery life of g4 is below average,and i dont think plastic body of g4 look tempting compared to pretty body of mi5

Sd808 doesnt perform as well  if compare to sd820

Tks for the heads up bro. Did not realise or bother to check for latest negative reviews cos last time I almost wanted to buy but price was a bit too high for me

My Ideal HP Specs

Screen Size - 5.5 inch or Min 5.2
Bands - Must support LTE
Sim - Dual Sim
SD Card - Preferred but not must have
Replaceable Battery - Preferred but not must have

The LG 4G ticks all the above boxes but lucky for me, you tipped me off on the latest bad news.

Perhaps wait for the Mi Note Replacement

Cheaper price but reduced specs
-No OIS
-No 3D Touch
-1gb ram
-Same old design

But it's still an APPLE IPHONE and that is the biggest reason why ppl are willing to pay more for less.

I have been using ip5 for 3 years, and worst it lags on the ios9. That's the reason i still remain on ios7. The 1gb ram really is not enough nowadays, especially on ios9. On my phone (ios7), only opening 3 safari tabs already reloading and this pisses me off. Not yet talk about sucky batt life this phone has, it has a great predictable batt life when idle, but when i start to use data and kaboom it all go down to the drain. This ip5se i foresee it will have small battery as well due to recycled design from ip5. So dont expect great batt life from a 4inch thin phone.

Iphones asides, i also started to piss off xiaomi as well for their business model by selling online only, i've been trying for about 1month trying to buy mi5 in china but it always sold out within 1minute. Their sale is only once a week, how they sell to mass markets like that? I start to lost interest already because i couldnt buy it and the scalpers trying to earn extra 500rmb from it.

Yeah, agree. Sooner or later, this xiaomi will kill a lot of goodwill amongst its fans. It's not like we cannot afford a Samsung or Sony flagship.

Allow ppl to buy online but the delivery period can be staggered.
