Ahhh, Ok. Haha...

My phone still in the box, not powered on yet. Away on a business trip. Will settle the tempered glass and casing this weekend when I’m back

Ya, but I thought people bought it for the pure experience. Anyways, could be just me

Also kena two pin plug like the rest of us bro

CKYStore’s ad says they have a physical store in Klang Parade. Maybe I’ll check it out this weekend

Hahaha... I don’t think he knows we exist.

The reason I’d prefer a physical store is because I’m hopeless at applying tempered glass or any form of screen protectors, ha ha

Are you gonna buy online or from a retail shop?

Ya, I also wanna buy from retail coz I’m hopeless at installing screen protectors or tempered glasses, ha ha. Will hunt this weekend and report back here if I find some good ones

Mine still in the box, not using it till I get protection as in case + tempered glass

Well, if you want Stock Android performance with top notch hardware, then Pixel is the way to go. Too bad it’s not officially available here, and the unofficial ones are too expensive.

Ya, I plan to try MIUI 9 when Mi Mix 2 price comes down

No la, the main goal is wanna play with Mi Mix 2, ha ha...

I think those of us who made the purchase on the 11.11 event on Lazada probably got the best deal - RM779 after discount with another RM34 ShopBack rebate.

Wait for 12.12 then. Another round of madness incoming

Ya, but the ShopBack rebate takes about 60 days before it gets credited back to your account.

So I visited the CKYStore this morning and had the tempered glass finally installed on my A1 and bought a cover too. They have quite a selection of covers but if you’re used to buying premium covers for flagship phones, then these look a little dodgy, ha ha. Anyways, can’t complain for the price.

Tempered glass - RM15 (full coverage, but got a bit of rainbow effect)
Cover - RM12 (has a stand and back magnet, which is nice)

Not sure bro. Didn’t check the box and didn’t take it with me after I put it on.

Could be this one: -

I actually wanted this one but it was sold out.

Ya, I suppose if I ordered it online he could get it delivered to me by next week. But it’s fine, I like the one I got too

Ya, same here. My temporary fix is to go to Contacts, click on the three dots on the top right, choose Contacts To Display, and select my Google account only. Hopefully they'll fix this.

Yeah, more obvious at certain angles than others, and it also smudges easily, but it does protect the screen from scratching so I’m OK with that. For a RM12 case, it’s pretty good. It probably won’t provide too much protection from drops but it fits nicely and the textured back makes for a nice grip. Pretty good so far

Yes, I concur. The camera is not as awful as some reviews say it is (compared to the Nova 2i). Love how smooth the UI is on stock Android. Oh, and battery drain on standby is awesome, even without the battery saver on.

Nice! Yeah, I mean it's also about expectations. This is a midrange phone, and Xiaomi doesn't claim that it will take flagship-like photos. For what it is and what we paid, I would say the camera is more than decent
