a big statement there mate. AnTuTu ,they are only numbers after all and have no bearing whatsoever on real world usage.

you are almost slow down by half by downgrade from Redmi Note 4 to P2 ??- dont make me laugh.

the Xiaomi Note series even up to the latest generation, is only a phone for the budget conscious buyer or for those who want a stand-by with a rather long battery life.the RN3 and RN4 serve its purpose by being a very reasonably price phone but overall,both simply lacks the P2 more premium user experience feel.the overall built quality ,screen display,music and movie audio output quality with DAC and AMP,expansion slot versatility,RAM and a much improve UI make it on par with some flagships model.many people think the P2 is only about a big arse battery where infact it has much more to offer.

Xiaomi created and marketed them for a reason, to dump this 2 bugger into the market to kick its competitor nose ,making them hard to breathe ,to boost sales figure and thus better phone manufacturers sales ranking placement knowing well they dont bring much if any profits at all.

i have tested the RN3 for a week which i bought for my sis,one unit which i sent in for repair was meant for Singapore market but ship here probably to dump here cheaply (i have no complaints as the warranty was honored )and also use the Mi5 Prime 64gb for 2 months and although the Mi5 can hold its own on performance ,it is just a light and smallish phones and it could serve no other purpose especially ,media consumption.although it has the SD820, honestly ,i feel no difference in performance at all when compare to the P2.so to me after comparing ,SD 820 or whatever dont matter or hold any water except for those who care for paper specs ,are rich or are deluded and/or wannabe youtube or internet reviewer.i must admit it is fun to watch and read though, as they took turns to justify those numbers and colorful charts which in the end have no bearing in everyday use.cant blame them as many of them need to be seen as a PRO in writing,talking and drawing something.

i guess you just pluck those numbers from there and paste it here and try to make a statement just by those silly numbers. ahhh....if only ,buying and selling smartphones can be this silly, simple and easy

Xiaomi SC at amcorp mall is pretty good.next day kawtim ,although i have to call them.i also like the MIUI and i must admit also like Xiaomi smartphones if they dump the price.

looking forward to the Mi Mix v2 with smaller screen size.hope but dont think they will cheap dump this series

how do you know i am a light user on the P2? what makes you think i like the design and the higher price ? who said the RN4 is faster than P2 by half? you kah ?

like many others ,though i can afford more expensive phones .i will only buy phones i deem most suitable for me and me only.although the RN4 is cheaper ,i have my reasons for choosing the P2 and why should i be ashamed of myself if i were to use the RN4.because you say so ah

who are you to tell me and imposed your will on this thread, the RN4 is faster than the P2 by half and blah blah blah

big daddy is so Kawaii

japanese ah moi ,if they were to know you , they will feel sooo kimochi

ROFL. how user could be duped into believing a 5.5 inch Super Amoled screen ,with DAC and Amp .a Sony sensor and a 5100 mAh battery as a budget phones by many internet reviewers.its only a third in price compare famous flagship model.

no disrespect to those reviewers ,keep up those good work ,just love you guys.because of this and further sales tricks and tactics used between the manufacturers and carriers ,it gives me a chance to buy much more affordable phones with plenty of flagship features if only one know where and when to buy.through stiff competition ,cut-throat and dumping practices,no wonder many people can afford to use and categorize their phones usages as primary ,secondary ,thirdly and what come after

its pretty good time to be alive actually

hohohoo...just notice the obsessed with AnTuTu benchmark guy is back in town who called himself a Tech Enthusiast and who also ,on more than a few occasion on this thread alone, imposing his idiotic and silly will ,that AnTuTu reading alone ,is the Be-all and End-all decision to buy a phone.

look Mr.Tech Enthusiast ,from your post counts ,i tend to believe you are a person with a reasonable amount of knowledge of SoC, you can have your beliefs and there is nothing wrong with that but to impose your will again and again on something that is subjective as benchmarking readings and make a silly judgement call ....hohohoo

BTW ,in case you need reminders, benchmarking readings ,however accurate or subjective ,are merely instruments and tools to be use as buying guide and not the final and only decisions..many users nowadays already knows ,difference in speed if (any) are only in milliseconds and it does not affect their everyday use .for those who hold the belief that higher benchmarking reading can improve and enhance their user experience,will accordingly to their budget ,go ahead and make their choice.there is no right or wrong .

More importantly ,there are many more features of equal significance that a potential buyer have to consider before they decides

Unless the SoC are from years ago which are now obsolete which have big differences than yes if they wish ,they can look up to benchmarking reading comparison if they dont know what else to look to.the SD625 does have its shortcomings,but for many and for what it can do ,it is already more than sufficient

from what i know ,A Go-Go use to be a popular dance step a while ago but is now obsolete .you are saying, all smartphone user and buyer should dance to your new tune called AnTuTu. and in your silly opinion and will ,no other tune which in this case other "features" are legitimate other than your beloved AnTuTu.

Come on ,you are better than this

so quiet on the Eastern Front

oh big daddy.is that real... you just void the warranty of the expensive Sandisk Pro Micro SDCard

Sooner or later phonemaker may come out with slot to accommodate all

bravo. happiness is all that matters

i have tried voice recording on wechat and whatsapp and even video recording and never have this problem even at rather noisy environment.

you guys are sure you dont have talking and hearing problem.my set is so pure and pristine and powerful in every aspect

maybe BigDaddy should conduct a poll here on this so called low voice/sound recording bug issues

true also.
i often speak close to the phone mic.

to me nothing much the S7e can overshadow the P2 except the camera shot at lowlight and prestige and design.tested the S7E for a few days

after a while of using ,infact almost everything else is equal.maybe i dont care much about prestige and design now as i use to be but do care about bang for the bucks. but to each her own

will be a strong buy if price at 1.7k.love the camera ,battery and the so -called 5-magnet speaker.sounds so powerful although the p2 is already loud and crisp enough.will watch this bugger closely

got to love the fast auto- focus OIS camera with f1.7 aperture ,sony sensor and 2.3x optical zoom. on paper better than IP7+ ,sammy S7E or even S8.

the 5-magnet speaker sound so high-tech and some more have Gorilla Glass 5 and Amoled display and ofcourse fast charging also.

Tempted already,best price at Lazada at RM1899
