In China, the 64GB model is priced at 1,699CNY (about RM1,064) while the 128GB model is going for 1,999CNY (about RM1,252).

Not too long ago, the Xiaomi Mi 6 flagship was also spotted on our SIRIM database. From what we know so far, both the Mi 6 and the Mi Max 2 have yet to go on sale officially outside its home market in China. According to a report, it is possible that the Mi 6 and Mi Max 2 could be making its debut in India sometime in July. Hopefully, we can see some hints from Xiaomi Malaysia after the Raya holidays.

just downgrade chipset is not a big deal.. this is not a phone to render 4k video or to process autocad program.. its just a smartphone.. upgrade good camera,bigger battery n stereo speaker is enough.. n 625 is not that bad, its still stable n efficient.. i'm using zenfone3, moto Zplay, oppo r9s before n all perform great no lag or whatever, plus the battery much more better.. i dont know why u fucking hate 625 so much.. in real life is not much different.. still can gaming, watch FullHD movie, browsing, light editing..

hoping to see local release soon, that price for ap set is prett expensive because it's still very new, maybe price will drop to 1100 or so in few months time for 4/64
or maybe by that time xiaomi announce prime version of max 2 haha

test taken a night indoor photo under florescent light, not impressive at all - photo is grainy and blur. laugh.gif but it is just a casual shoot, need to test further.

Bought from HK at mi.com/hk/max2 @ HKD1,899, converted to about RM1,070.

Bought it mainly for the large screen as Youtube player in car, it is larger than my Kenwood HU with 6.2" screen. And also for its large battery capacity to fit the purpose as spare phone and mobile hotspot. thumbup.gif Using it as a mini tablet actually.

The matt black full metal finishing is actually very very nice. The 2.5D large front glass also great. The only downside is the fat MIUI, hopefully the incoming MIUI 9.0 which promise a slim down OS will trim lots of bloat in the MIUI.

Any good launcher to replace MI launcher? Trying Google Now launcher a the moment but it is too plain for my liking. tongue.gif

yes, global rom. I believe Malaysia version will also be black. Gold colour is China version. International version is black, as sold in HK now.

The matt black not only looks good, but can eliminate the thick black frame problem of the Max on white front face. thumbup.gif

Do note that this is an import set and not official Malaysia Xiaomi set. So warranty a little more complicated. But it's almost RM200 less and you can get it within next few days. Not sure when the official set will land in bolehland.

this price is very dinamic. One day you see at 1099, next at 1049 then at 1009, now back to 1099. I asked at the thread and the reply was due to Lazada special promo that allowed them to sell at reduced price temporarily. So whoever is lucky will get at the cheaper price.

Agreed, I would also hang on to my Max 1 if I own one now till the next upgrade. But the Max 2 spec, reviews and performance is really compelling value for money, if you don't mind the size. If fact am looking forward to it's larger screen.

anyone using mi max 2 already? is there any minor issues like redmi 4 prime mic issue?
seriously considering mi max 2 black against redmi note 4. price difference is about rm250 - rm300, the only disadvantage redmi note 4 has against mi max 2 is lesser battery and smaller screen.

Have been using Mi Max 2 as my spare phone since 2 weeks ago. No issue till now but I am not a heavy gamer on mobile. My son will play some tiny games while waiting me to fetch him back from tuition.

Tested night shot and compared with Samsung S8+, photo quality is miles away. But daytime shot under bright light is not bad though.

i dont really care about camera quality since most budget phone's camera quality is average. just afraid about those small issues. its a shame that malaysia version doesnt have 128gb though.

Nice. But why must use lanscape to turn on dual speaker? Other brand also like that?

Update: :just read the ads again. And it said " stereo effect". I dont think this phone have a true stereo speaker like other youtubers said.

Me too, wondering how this phone camera performance over Mi 5X.

In China MiMax 2 selling price is higher than 5X. Size 5X feature dual camera, but considering the fact that both using same Sony sensor. Both might be the same? But Mi advertisement on Max2 doesn't shout out much on its camera compare with 5X

Yes, but no details of what the update is about. I'm planning to wait till the new stable global MIUI9 rom is rolled out to MM2.

This is the third day I'm using this new toy and must say this is the best smartphone I've used to date. The size (6.44in) is not really that big. Can easily slip into my pocket. Doesn't weigh that much too. Must say the battery life is really #1.

What I like:
Battery life - no longer have to hug the wall plug or carry a powerbank arond;
Screen size - super crisp and nice to watch movie and read ebook and browse;
Speed is responsive (don't play games so can't comment);
Speakers - definitely stereo; it's awesome, just love the clarity especially when in landscape mode. Don't know why, but in potrait mode it's I think in mono.

What I don't like:
The regular USB connector /charger port is no more - now it's replaced by the newer Type-C connector; gosh now I can't share a cable with all my other android device. Guess it's for the better as newer devices will eventually have this port.

It's MIUI8 (8.5.2) - it's great, love it. Hope the 9 will be even better with split screen capability.

Yes, it's really good when companies do not over hype or over claim the benefits of their products and then under deliver.

Oh yes, one more thing I really like is the Second Space (available on MIUI8), it's freaking awesome. It's like having two phones in one!! And it works so smoothly too.

Also another thing I like about the MM2 is the finger print sensor. Didn't expect it to work so well, fast and smooth. It's so easy to set up too. Allows multiple fingerprints too. Note you do not have to use your thumbprint, any finger will do, so the sensor location at the rear of the phone is great.

And yes, if you use Second Space, can use different fingerprints to log on to different Space from locked screen of from off mode. No need to double tap or switch on to log on straight to the desired Space. This works even if you don't have Second Space.

For around RM1K, it's really what I would call "Cheap n Good"!!

Hi..basically the game stuck at cloud when nexting (not searching for base with the magnifying glass), but right after the magnifying glass disappears before it loads up enemy base layout, there is a 4-5 secs freeze which is not normal.. it doesn't freeze on my iPad/iPhone/ and even other older android devices doesn't have this problem.. if anyone could just login coc and see if you have this issue that'd be great, pic attached below:-

Btw I found a YouTube link on a Mi max 2 review, that guy tested on coc and his screen only freeze for about 1 sec which I think is normal..but 5 secs on mine is certainly obvious to be abnormal..

hmm I doubt so coz MI UI 8 supposed to be very good already for COC, I even tested running COC on my friends Redmi Note 3, even on Samsung note 2, which is much older and that phone hasn't even been formatted for years, and he didn't get the cloud screen loading issue. Moreover I posted the youtube link above at 7:33, that guy's using max 2 too, and he didn't had any problems like mine...so something is definitely not right here..

If you like camera then Mi max2 is not for you. Can go for phones like p10 LITE OR HONOR 8 which has far better camera. The cam sensor in mi max 2 is a good one though doesnt deliver good pics.

More of personal preference, buying with lazada official Mi site for peace of mind, but outside seller claiming they are original too, I rather wait for online purchase delivery

not arguing here bro, im suspecting my device is faulty, that's why asking if anyone here could test for me. if the link above shows no problem running the app while I have issue, then I'm almost sure its nothing to do with the spec, furthermore, max 2 spec is kinda overkill for the app (compared to my friends much older xiaomi device which he don't get this problem)

How about screen resolution? Most of 5.5 inch screen reso is 1920x1080. Same goes to mi max 6.44inch... its not about the size. Resolution matters

You have very little knowledge of ap set.
1st how good is the seller technician? Are they train? By who? By you?
2nd if it's a not well technician when repairing can damage other parts
3rd do you know the seller and technician personally if not how are you sure they won't damage your phone?
4th will your ap seller technician better than Xiao mi official Malaysia technician?
5th courier back who bare the charges? Any mishandling or will the seller bring to official store? That have flash to global Rom. Will they accept global Rom?

With above you save rm270 today and if you unlucky later rm270 can't repair those damages.

I always avoid overset or ap set except if the value vs original set is huge.
*
wow.... seem like you really don't encourage people to buy AP set. Thanks for the questions for potential AP buyer, in fact I should consider these before my future purchase.

I am not the seller or technician. I don't know them.

As I said, if the phone can survive for the 1st year, I am happy with it. To be honest, I don't think that far for a sub RM1000 gadget, I bought it cheap before the price was announced in Malaysia. So.... let it be lah! If i would to know the price in Malaysia earlier, I may consider buying Malaysian set. I can talk lough because.... this spare phone is subsidised... rclxs0.gif

I believe the seller also wanted to secure their reputation and business. They actually one of the LYN seller. Received high review in 11s.... emmmmm.. could be fake too yeah!

Hope I am not the unlucky one who got the defect unit... worst case..... send back loh. If cannot fix, baru taruk them kao kao ranting.gif ranting.gif ......

Hope you enjoy your local set.... icon_rolleyes.gif

Anyway it's not my phone so I careless but this advice is more for other  people that not stubborn ones.

Of course I will enjoy my local set because I can walk into any mi service centre to repair and tarok them Kao kao because it's official set.

Ap set you can only tarok the seller and pray very hard he make sure repairs and replace in a professional manner by authorized personnel.

Keep finger cross also that if send back to mi china entire process can take.less than a week or if repair by seller pray he give you original parts and not lower quality parts

Look like whoever buy AP really bother you a lot. How you know I shopped online very little? How you know I shopped blindly? Buying local set doesn't make you look great and smarter and whoever buying AP is not a dumber as well.

Please comment nicely and neutrally. Stop attacking people who are not inline with your thought. We are using this platform to learn and share the phone features, and not to fight for AP or original.

There are a lot of AP seller who make their life here. I respect them and I believe their etiquette in selling their products.

Let's mind our own business, the world will be better.

Thanks

they already have other model with 5.7 inches for average consumers. There is tonnes of phone at 5.7", take them if they think this phone is too big. Just my 2 sen. icon_rolleyes.gif

This phone is for those who wants a mini tablet. thumbup.gif I use it as my video player on the go and in my car - superb. Its screen is even bigger than my Kenwood HU with 6.2" screen. thumbsup.gif The extra large battery that can only fit in such a large chassis is also another star feature of this phone. rclxms.gif

can agree, bec we really hv no idea, like what u imply, whether the authorised seller is really an authorised seller whereby warranty is cover by xiaomi, since we never read anything that xiaomi is now embark on selling their phone via dealer or reseller or whatever off line. personally i prefer to buy from whoever that could offer a lower price, if term is similar.

i still deem rm1199 is on the high side compare to china and india pricing. thus ap set still remain a option. caveat emptor of course.

Hi, I for those who bought the Malaysian model, I would like verify if the Malaysia model retains its TD-SCDMA bands? Written in the manual/box/settings maybe?

Coz I'm looking to use it for frequent travelling to China.

ALSO, is the gold model officially here, or only AP?

Thanks!

from Mi. HK web site:

2G:GSM 850/900/1800/1900MHz (B2/B3/B5/B8)
3G:WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz (B1/B2/B5/B8)
4G:TDD-LTE B38/B39/B40/B41 (窄带 100MHz)
4G:FDD-LTE B1/B3/B5/B7/B8

Black is international version. Gold only for China I think.

Just use other launcher. Yes, MIUI is getting fatter and bloater, hopefully the MIUI 9 is slimmed down significantly as they promise.

Thanks for the response!

Yea, I noticed the discrepancy.
Frequencycheck.com does not distinguish china from global model.
Similarly, Xiaomi Malaysia listed Network Compatibility as:
GSM: B2 / B3 / B5 / B8
CDMA: BC0
UMTS: B1 / B2 / B5 / B8
FDD-LTE B1 / B3 / B5 / B7 / B8
TDD-LTE: B38 / B39 / B40 / B41
TD-SCDMA: B34 / B39

Thats why want to verify with someone who owns the phone at hand to somehow check.

I've asked Xiaomi but they did not answer me.

Found out that supported bands will be written at the label at the back of the box.
Could an owner of the Malaysian model kindly check for me please?

it should write TD-SCDMA somewhere if it has that.

UPDATE: Managed to take a look at the box at the shop, and find that the Malaysia model does not support China 3G... Only China 4G.

Now I would like to ask the inverse, does the global rom China import model support local malaysian 3g & 4g with no problem?

my tempered glass fully cover the screen without bubble, but the problem is got rainbow effect at the centre. very annoying.
*
Because its side adhesive tempred glass. There is no adhesive in the middle, so there will be gap between screen and the glass,creating the rainbow effect

Ini review saya.

Bateri boleh tahan 2 hari max.
Screen under matahari if max brightness macam talipon murah tapi boleh di terima

Speaker paling best Ada stereo speaker. One Come out bottom dan satu lagi Kat earpiece .

Tapi movie best screen besar

Main game kadang kadang lag perlu tutup apps yang lain

Ini talipon lagi nipis dari Samsung s8 saya.

Masih belum Ada miui  9. Masih at miui 8.5

Cap jari sensor unlock sangat pantas kurang 1 saat

I have beli warna black untuk membuat this talipon teman s8

Harga perpatutan rm1k saja dapat 4gb ram dan 64gb

What saya tak suka tau boleh dual standby 4G. Mesti pilih satu data

Using torchlight apps? Miui is built in with one.
1 can set at notification and 1more can launch with press home button in lockscreen mode

Tentatively using Mi Max tempered glass screen protector, slightly smaller but at least it covers before the curve edge.

so no visible bubble on the edge.

bought it last week together with the slim fit protective case. can fit easily into my jeans and pants pocket. felt strange for the first few times because it's huge but now that I am used to it, can hardly notice it's there.

good phone, my daughter loves it more than her iPad mini smile.gif

not arguing here bro, im suspecting my device is faulty, that's why asking if anyone here could test for me. if the link above shows no problem running the app while I have issue, then I'm almost sure its nothing to do with the spec, furthermore, max 2 spec is kinda overkill for the app (compared to my friends much older xiaomi device which he don't get this problem)

So far I've bought 4 Xiaomi sets. The first one was mi4i from Mi Malaysia set. After 2 months phone cannot make or receive calls. Brought it to Amcorp Mall for warranty claim, paid RM5 for parking and had to wait for about an hour to submit the set as there was a queue at that time. The centre don't only repair Xiaomi sets but also for other manufacturers. So can call Xiaomi specialist ka?

The next day received a call from service centre to collect set back as not under warranty due to water damage. I thought, WTF set never kena water or caught in rain how can water damage. Centre staff said can happen one. P*K*M*. Had to pay another RM5 to park at Amcorp Mall to collect my set back.

Next set Redmi Note 2, used for >2 years without a hitch. Bought AP set from DirectD. Still working fine, except that battery about to kaput di.

Next set Redmi 4 Prime, also AP set, also from DirectD. Almost a year now, set is beautiful.

Latest set MM2, also AP set. Bought online. Second month now, am loving it. Fingers crossed will last at least a year. Othewise, I consider still worth it as the savings is more the the premium price I would have to pay for the PKM Mi Malaysia set that don't honor their warranty (in my case anyway).

For for those who think that Mi Malaysia > than AP set, think again.

The white screen waiting time depends to your network. High speed will be very fast, your issue is 2-4 secs searching time or never get into the games?

It's not the searching time, it's after search, when you don't see the word 'searching', basically after searched completed before loading up your enemy base, that's when the 4 secs white screen lag appear.

Same as End Battle button, after pressing it there's also 4 secs white screen before you see your own base load up

The official width vs length are different: -

Mi Max 2: 174.1mm x 88.7mm
Mi Max: 173.1mm x 88.3mm

So I'm guessing it won't fit? Not sure, maybe owners here who had the first Mi Max can shed some light on this.

same experience like me, mine is xiaomi note cost me about rm1500. the power button got problem and keep restarting the phone suddenly when i was reading news on my phone. no chance to back up at all because the power button never gv u chance to press any command it will just restart the phone infinitely.

bring to xiaomi service center, the technician check for few days just told me there is no sign of me break the power button so should be under warranty claim. But he have to write a report to headquarter to get approval before he can proceed to repair my phone or otherwise he have to charge me labour cost rm28 + powerbutton cost rm100++.

So i opt to wait for the so called head quarter approval. end up 2 months the phone in the service center yet still cannot get the approval according to the technician. visit the service center few times inside the 2 month period....end up after arguing with the service center they only agree to waive the power button but still have to charge me rm28 labour cost.

after that i have no faith in xiaomi malaysia warranty, infact i just choose the cheapest price no matter is ap set or original set when i looking for xiaomi phone.

I believe there should be no difference except for the color and Mi Malaysia warranty vs parallel importers' (AP set sellers) warranty.

So far I've bought 4 Xiaomi sets. The first one was mi4i from Mi Malaysia set. After 2 months phone cannot make or receive calls. Brought it to Amcorp Mall for warranty claim, paid RM5 for parking and had to wait for about an hour to submit the set as there was a queue at that time. The centre don't only repair Xiaomi sets but also for other manufacturers. So can call Xiaomi specialist ka?

The next day received a call from service centre to collect set back as not under warranty due to water damage. I thought, WTF set never kena water or caught in rain how can water damage. Centre staff said can happen one. P*K*M*. Had to pay another RM5 to park at Amcorp Mall to collect my set back.

Next set Redmi Note 2, used for >2 years without a hitch. Bought AP set from DirectD. Still working fine, except that battery about to kaput di.

Next set Redmi 4 Prime, also AP set, also from DirectD. Almost a year now, set is beautiful.

Latest set MM2, also AP set. Bought online. Second month now, am loving it. Fingers crossed will last at least a year. Othewise, I consider still worth it as the savings is more the the premium price I would have to pay for the PKM Mi Malaysia set that don't honor their warranty (in my case anyway).

For for those who think that Mi Malaysia > than AP set, think again.

you go to the wrong parking brows.gif
the real amcorp mall parking is basement parking, the one infront is not amcorp mall parking
the charge is Rm 2 if not mistaken

i purchase a redmi note 3 3gb from mi malaysia , and its spoil within the first week of ownership
send to amcorp mall to fix , waited for 1 week, get the phone back, and the phone die again within the next 2 week
sent it back again to fix bangwall.gif bangwall.gif then they change the mother board and all necessary thing, finally the phone work like it should rclxms.gif

not dare to purchase AP set as they tend to come with some weird rom and warranty claiming is an big issue too...

i bought this last night, rm1199. black 64gb to replace my fucked up htc one m8.

my review so far,

1. the signal received at certain area is pretty bad. though it is a limited signal area, but my previous m8 can do better than this (at the exact location too)

2. love the battery. love the size. yet to see movie with it.

3. camera is of no importance to me hence i bought this. if not i would've almost gone with a p10 plus or something like that. i only wan performance.

4. dual app, dual phone, this is a new one. hehehe.... i think i can do a lot with this one brows.gif

5. probably will go taobao to search for casing and screen.

6. coc no problem

7. a lot more feature to be tried

After much consideration I will get the mi max 2 using the Lazada 29% voucher tomorrow. Final price RM989 for the local warranty set. Think this is the cheapest price available, even cheaper than Qoo10.

Depends on what you do.
Just to give you example, I turn on mobile data, GPS and bluetooth with 10hr SOT still left 20% with standby around the same. I can get more on WiFi.
For me it's better than most phone out there except when compared to Lenovo P2. Refer to the chart given by azhar75 there. Mi max 2 is top 5 highest achiever.

Status: 100% charged

activity:
- heavy gaming (lineage 2) max graphic for at least 7 hours
- data, wifi, gps 24/7, occasional hotspot
- bluetooth + spotify during back from work, around 1-2 hour usage in a day
- whatsapp web (coz bz gaming tongue.gif ), some sms, during office hour


end of the day, i left an average of 20% battery life. sometime more sometime less depending on usage. for me i'm quite happy. heavy gaming 7 hours is quite fun without recharging lol

You are comparing battery of a phone to a tablet battery. Of course it would be different. What I said is, this phone battery usage is better than most smartphone out there.

Previous also bought from this seller. Worst experience ever.

They offer very good price but always delay and non-delivered. FB message & office number not reachable and non-reply.
Can see at lazada review also the same, users complaining the same thing.

My order was automatic cancel by Lazada with the reason "merchant cannot fulfill the order".

And now, this same seller flocking at garage sale here. No shame at all.

Oh fuck man, few days ago i accidentaly dropped my newly bought phone, and it freaking landed with its angle there, where tempered glass doesnt cover. The screen cracked all the way. Arghhhhhh T.T

But my question is here, i called up the authorised service centre and ask about the repairing/replacing the screen, they quoted me RM747.3. Seriously so fucking expensive? Its more than half of the value of the phone already.

I tried ask around those handphone repair shop, all dont repair xiaomi.

Quite easy. Need bootloader unlock first. Than just fastboot flash twrp recovery. Finally boot into twrp and flash supersu.zip to root. Please refer forum xda thread for more details
Do check that forum for rom offerings

Hello guys, I have a problem with my Mi Max 2.

1. When I record a video, the audio on it is muffled. I can't hear anything.

2. I am also unable to send videos recorded on whatsapp. I keep getting "missing file" when the recipient attempts to download it.

Do anyone of you have this problem?

Tempered glass will have a high chance of producing the halo effect.
Maybe you could try non-glass type? But the protection is not as good as a tempered glass (although the glass type will not protect the screen if the hit/drop impact is big)
Wanted to buy online at RM20++ but ended up buying from pasar malam at half price. Not perfect glass but good enough for me. It is just a phone right?

You are welcome.

I read that having a tempered glass is not necessary. The original gorilla glass is good enough. Putting another layer may dampen the touch sensitivity. The screen will look uglier because there is no tempered glass that fully covers the screen due to the curves at the edges, unless you custom-make one yourself. There are bubbles at the sides too. If you want good protection, get a thick protective case to protect the 4 corners of the phone. Those made of TPU type with both hard and soft layers with double protection.

Hi XXXXX. Thank you for the support! FYI, original global sets in Malaysia can come with 2 or 3-pin charger, as we do bring in both types to meet the high demand here. As long as you bought it from an official outlet or authorised retailer, your warranty will be covered by us. Hope that helps!

I understand that you are looking forward in order to know whether your phone is covered under Malaysian warranty or not. I will be able to help you on this.

With reference to the data you have shared, we have checked it from our end and it is declared that your phone will be covered under Malaysian warranty. Rest assured.

Can only select one SIM for LTE (Data) at one time. So while your YES is LTE, UMobile will be 3G. If you select UMobile as Data line, YES will become 3G.

To select: Setting>>SIm Card & Mobile Networks>>Scroll down>> Internet - Select Either One.

You need to apply for this feature at Digi center. This was what I had read in other threads for unofficial supported phones.
However if your sim is originally from an iphone7 than is auto activated. Volte is working fine on my mi mix using previous ip7+ simcard

Just got my new mi max 2 global version. Anyone have idea why at the back lower part of the phone there is a small line about 0.2 cm. Looks like a scratch to me. But the line is straight so it looks like on purpose to be there. Appreciate some comments.

are u referring to the antenna line at the bottom of the casing? If you look carefully, there is a same line at the top of the case at the top too.

How good is good? Covering the whole screen? This type is available but more expensive and it comes with the black/white top and bottom. If you want it cheaper say pasar malam, you could get one but it doesn't cover the whole screen.

Thanks for your replies. My Windows PC cannot detect my phone when I connect it using the USB cable type C that comes with the package. Any reason why? Do I need to install any driver or software? I know I could transfer it using the FTP server but I want to use the cable.

Ya, that's what I thought all this while. Previously the typical USB cable for my older phones could be used for both. Somehow I made wrong assumption that maybe the default cable for Mi Max 2 was only for power transfer since I couldn't get any data (and I read somewhere that there are cables for power only and I have to purchase a separate cable for data doh.gif )

Thanks for reminding me smile.gif

I got my unit from DirectD. THey didnt have the suitable casing to go with the full tempered Screen Protector. Basically the bubble issues.

Since the screen s Gorilla.. I had to sabar and wait for a proper SP to come along. Tragedy struck sometime yesterday despite I took all the precaution eg no keys in the pocket. Somehow a fine scratch was found on the screen.

Sakit Hati. No choice. Went ahead and got a SP. KNN. Same casing. No bubbles issues. But got some oil like texture tat moves beneath the screen protector. Especially the centre. So I guess it solves the scratches but not 100% yet.

Later gonna pop by and get an A1 for my wife.

Sorry to hear about your scratch. Are you sure the scratch was not there earlier?

What kind of bubble issues? You mean to say, if the casing is incorrect, it will touch and push the full SP off the gorilla screen and create bubbles?

So you are looking for the right casing to fit the full SP nicely?

Not sure what you mean by the oil like texture. Mine has no issues at the centre but both the top edges of my non-full SP are not sticking to the screen, as if there are no adhesive (glue) on the SP on these areas.

Morning.

I think they call it the halo effect. Just got an A1 yesterday Night. Bought a screen protector from seller. ITs good material. But rubbing the bubbles out is an arse. Took some minutes before the bubbles are fully 'rubbed' out. Still hunting for a better screen protector for my mi max2. Seriously. Am favouring all these xiaomi over IP7+. May sell the iphone away. LOL

Lol... I am having xiaomi phone and sold my iPhone 7.
But I just loving with Miui 9 OS than Miui 8.5.
From the Miui 9 can do all things such as read more music format took over from iTunes.
Unlike Miui 8.5 can't play at all.
Even dual WhatsApp is the best from mi phone, but after went to Miui 9 hasn't issue for both app backup to Gmail.
From the Miui 8.5 for main WhatsApp can backup and dual app can't backup at all.

i got mine full sp and casing from directD too, is working fine for me
u need to really apply the full sp evenly to both side for the full casing to complete matching with your sp, else u might have the clicking sound between your sp and the casing when u holding hard the phone.

regards the oil like texture i think u refer to the rainbow effect on the middel, i think u cant do anything on it as the glue on sp is only 4 corner size, basically middle have nothing to hold it.

Same here. I am used to the halo effect already. It is not obvious unless you focus on the effect.
After all, it is just a phone.

normally only will look at those giving free gift like powerbank/casing+sp with slightly lower price.

is very subjective is a good deal or not as depends on your need on the free gift.
