Bought it at 779 and the ShopBack rebate was a laughable RM1.50 only, ha ha. Anyways, am happy to have gotten the phone new for that price. No complaints. Bought it as a secondary phone just to try stock Android without splashing the cash for a Nexus or Pixel device.

QUOTE(deblyrie @ Nov 11 2017, 03:34 PM) how to get this cashback? Go to shopback.my to register a new account.Thereafter click on the Lazada link for a new window to open, and make sure you browse and make your purchase in that particular window. Alternatively download the ShopBack App from Google Play Store or Apple App Store and register a new account, and use the link from that app. Cheers!

QUOTE(jovigrunge @ Nov 11 2017, 03:35 PM) Welcome to the club! :thumbsup: Thanks bro. Looking forward to receiving the phone in the mail next week. Are third party accessories easily available for this phone at retail shops? I know there’s plenty online but I’m quite hopeless at DIY and wouldn’t mind paying an accessories shop to apply tempered glass for me even if it costs a bit more. |

QUOTE(ic-klass @ Nov 12 2017, 01:21 AM) Did everyone who bought from lazada 11.11 recieved their confirmation email? Lazada mentioned that there may a delay of confirmation emails due to a technical glitch because of high volume of transactions yesterday. I got the confirmation for my Mi A1 though, but I did buy another item which I haven’t received the confirmation for.My payment got through still no confirmation email... |

QUOTE(Benefon @ Nov 13 2017, 07:52 AM) I can't do comments as much due to never use Google one yet That's why I bought the Mi A1 actually. To try stock Android. But I read some reviews that the Mi A1 does have some Mi bundled apps, like a Remote Control (since it has an IR blaster), Camera app (stock Android app doesn't support dual camera), etc. Any user here has further comments on these Mi Apps? |

QUOTE(jovigrunge @ Nov 13 2017, 09:41 AM) From my experience through 11th street, they will refund back to your account CASH but nor sure about Lazada. My one and only experience with the MIUI was the Mi3, and I didn’t like it at all, which was why I’ve been avoiding Xiaomi phones ever since. Always wanted to try Stock Android but neither Nexus nor Pixel is “officially” sold here hence never did. So I’ve been eyeing the Mi A1 since it launched, but was hesitant to pay over 1000 for a secondary phone which I know I won’t keep for long I think those who are about to buy the Mi A1 must know that the Mi A1 is a whole new thing than all Xiaomi phones due to it's OS. It's not running MIUI and if you miss the MIUI, just get the Mi 5x. Mi Android One is all about Google. Basically for people who loves simplicity, quick updates, safe and zero bloatware. Like it's slogan says, Created By Xiaomi, Powered By Google."  Those who owned a Nexus or Pixel or any pure stock Android smartphones will have no problem with this phone in terms of OS. Basically it's for people who wants simple. |

QUOTE(jovigrunge @ Nov 13 2017, 04:03 PM) There was offer everywhere on various online sites. A few of the buyers here got it for as low as RM779. I don't see any major loss in terms of investment for that price. We are talking about 4GB ram + 64GB rom + dual camera + pure stock Android and 5.5" screen. Exactly bro. Not to mention I get a RM35 rebate with ShopBack so it’s a steal. |

QUOTE(azhar75 @ Nov 13 2017, 04:24 PM) Edy received mine today at 12pm sharp.... Just ignore the Laz tracking system... so long as you've got SMS saying the item has been SHIPPED, it'll arrive within 24 hours.... Sweet. Mine still in transit, I believe.Somehow I doubt this phone replaces your beloved P2, bro? |

QUOTE(azhar75 @ Nov 13 2017, 04:56 PM) This A1 is not mine... I just helped my friend to order... At least I got RM35.06 commission from cashback... using his credit card though (RM779.00)... It's from WOW Phone (aka DirectD). There's EIN and Global version sticker but wall charger is 2 pin white colour.... Which means it’s not Malaysia set? Or Malaysia set also comes with a two pin wall plug? |

QUOTE(jovigrunge @ Nov 13 2017, 07:19 PM) It depends on their next collaboration. Xiaomi create and Goggle OS. Could be Mi 2 A1 in the future! But I watched the unboxing video is a 3-pin Don't worry, still a Malaysian set but not so lucky to get a 3 pin.   |
