no need wait 12.12, in fact its on sale for 1.4k right now as well

still a risk with electronics, never know when bad luck will strike you.. so for 400 more you get brand new virgin + 12 months peace of mind..
Also with a brand new phone, touchwood if anything bad happens like screen cracked, could even get it replaced under warranty if lucky.. i seen someone managed to claim new screen + back glass + battery under warranty when he dropped his phone when he had a motorbike accident.. I also not sure why warranty would cover that, but hey ho lucky him, the person only had to pay for the labour costs..

anyway, i guess its because i dont like the blue colour.. in fact i hate it lol.

you said can use 50 voucher right.. so will be 950. if those slap a case and dont care about blue colour maybe could be worth it for them..

So confident ya you, confidently incorrect... WON'T

bro you yourself ignorant dont need accuse me never take into account what ROM all this shit. You think you use bombastic words can look smarter is it?

its from lazada poco official global store FYI.
11.11 was 1399, just last friday, lazada black friday sale was 1399 as well. and i assume 12.12 will be 1399 too.

and you know what, after checking others comments, i'm not the first person or the only person to mention this 1399 price..
In fact in this very page, there is mention of it by someone else..


But somehow you still can confidently assume it WON'T go down that low for god knows whatever thought processing that goes on in your head, or in this case a clear lack of.

what kind of question is this bro..

it all depends on you, the user..

a phone is as latest as anyone perceives it to be..

some people can only do with or only want the latest and greatest..

so to them half year phone is definitely outdated and they already looking forward to the next gen of phones..

some only use it to consume multimedia like songs and netflix..

so as long as do those stuffs snappily the phone is not outdated..

anyway when released the SD870 was the 2nd rank chip behind flagship SD888 for 2021 phones, and is better than the 2020 flagship prior to SD888 release which is the SD865/865+..

So now we are moving to 2022, so you can deduce for yourself where does the SD870 sit now..

1) SD8Gen1 (SD898) << 2022
2) SD888+ (late 2021)
2) SD888 (early 2021) i put both of them at 2nd rank because just a minor improvement, and most flagships are on SD888 and not on SD888+
3) SD870 (early 2021, essentially an overclocked 865+, so its a late 2020 chip but boosted to be able to meet 2021 standards) This is the part you decide for yourself if it's outdated
4) SD865+ (late 2020)
5) SD865 (early 2020)


I would say it's still a mighty proc, and given its price now. It's SUPER worth it.

yup and just to add, usually the flagship Snapdragon 8 series tends to age well with time..

So as long as we are using flagship series of Snapdragon we dont have much to worry as it will remain capable for many many years..

Just take a look at the Poco F1 for example which is a 2018 phone, 3 years old phone..
I still have it and it is still responsive, smooth and adequately fast for a 3 year old phone in 2021..

didnt stop, that is xiaomi style.. if you choose not to update it wont kacau you for a while.. later only will re-appear..

some ppl like it like that so that wont constantly nag you to update..

also since they go by batch, if you dont want update first they will give your slot for others to update, so if you want update you need wait your turn again..

there is a factory fitted SP on the phone out of the box..

you can either keep it on and use that SP or you can get highly recommended TG by ibywind, search on lazada.. once you are ready to install the TG, remove the factory fitted SP first..

very cheap only.. 90 ringgit for the glass. labour 60 i think?

https://www.mi.com/my/service/support/materialprice.html

except its not.. ??

its glued on to the screen..

yeah, funny how the motherboard price is actually more than the price of an entire brand new phone..

not sure if they will revise the price down the line, since those prices are since F3 was launched when it's RRP was 1399/1699..

but its always been this case isn't it and not just for xiaomi other brands also like that..
changing motherboard might as well buy a new phone.. All brand motherboard also not worth changing if not in warranty..

but ayam cukurr that their screen / back glass / battery is relatively cheaper compared to other brands though..
that's the most important thing since those 3 items are not covered by warranty and will be the ones that commonly needs replacement..
Other brands like Samsung if you want change screen also need think 2~3 times because cost around 1k..

motherboard any problem at least got 1 year warranty (unless water damage)

you should try find out from xiaomi SC and ask them front camera replacement how much, and if they follow motherboard price then you try argue like what you said above...

im curious now..

err cause you are the one who is still bringing it up, even when shown actual teardown vids that what you perceived is not true at all?
So seems like you are the one who is insistent on the whole front camera being a separable module, maybe you are more qualified than Xiaomi technicians I guess
Xiaomi stupid they dont know fix their own phones, smh

Don't know what teardowns you watch la, but the ones i watched every single one of them can't remove the front camera module from the screen without damaging it..
Unless you are more expert than those teardown youtube channels, in that case kudos to you

"definitely"

what are you on bro..

online will more often than not be cheaper than physical stores.. I have never come across a physical store that sell cheaper than online prices...

Physical store need to pay rental and worker la wei, how to sell you cheap2.

Also if you buy online also sealed set la.

LOL WTF..

How old are you? 10? So gullible?

Stop buying from some random ABCD you find online then..

Go buy from lazada/shopee. Hell, there's official stores on those platforms as well. and they wont even say a single thing to you about opening box first..

then i guess you the type look for lowest price like rm 500~600, those too good to be true deals and expect it to be a genuine deal..

why need to self collect when they deliver straight to your door-step? petrol very cheap? you live in a secret base?
You scared deliver man see your parcel is a phone and want to steal it?
You live in banjir area scared your parcel store in warehouse kena water?

You scared got any damage to the phone when you unbox?
^Ok this 1 legit concern so i wont sarcastic reply you. If you sked of this then take video of your unboxing, for any warranty or exchange/refund claim purposes.
That is what i always do for all my electronics purchased online..


again my advice to you is to stop buying from shady sellers then..

they put that so that they can sell 2nd hand phones to you at new phone price la

Why need to "activate" warranty? Nowadays most phones warranty auto follow your invoice/receipt date, you dont need to activate any thing..

Still got people fall for activate warranty in 2021? What is this? 2010??? I think even in 2012/13 when smartphones boomed also that time didn't need to activate or register for warranty purposes.. Just bring phone to service centre with receipt/invoice good enough..

LMAOOOO, thanks for the good laugh though..
