It was supposed to be shipped on Monday but ended up being shipped yesterday for logistic reasons,have no choice than to wait..

Hope you've received your phone? Come and give us your own user review na.
I received the phone from Kulimart/the guy is AUTHENTIC by the way)yesterday and have been putting it through its pace since then and my impression so far is as follows ;
PROS;
1.Form Factor :the phone looks nice physically,slim and elegant,my Samsung Galaxy Note 2 looks and feels like a Hulk besides it,the contrast of the red capacitive buttons against the black background looks exotic.
2.Screen:I especially love the screen,the FHD resolution looks sharp and crispy,contrast is great too..coming from a Galaxy Note 2 with Super AMOLED Screen,I love that it can be tweaked to look warm and vibrant like an AMOLED.
3.Battery:Am a heavy user,So far it's performing better than my Galaxy Note 2 ever did and that's good enough for me,the bundled charger is exceptionally fast too.
4.MIUI:The proprietary UI is also a breath of fresh air,it's buttery smooth and so far no hiccups detected,coming from a long line of Samsung's Touchwiz I prefers Xiaomi's simpler take on Android,even my favorite Launcher NOVA is on a cooler for now.
5. APPS:Not too much bloatware like Samsung and some of the bundled ones makes sense and are actually useful too,I especially love their ebook reader..yeah,I love me my ebooks..
CONS;
1.Poor Ram management:the MIUI seems to hog Ram,I had to free up extra Ram constantly,my main quip so far..
2.Nit picking,but the phone is a wee bit on the long side physically,compared to my Galaxy..
So far these have been my observations after a day of use,mostly PROS..am not much of a photo junkie but the camera looks decent to me too and as you can see on picture the focus is OK,I also noticed the phone doesn't seem to heat up much even while charging and using it at the same time..
Conclusion,for the money it's a great deal and no regrets on my part so far ..

This one caught me. you mean the battery is doing better than your Note 2 ever did? Did you buy your Note 2 brand new when u bought it?
2ndly are there Google apps installed like play store, Google now etc? and finally is it Lollipop 5.0 really? cos I've seen some YouTube videos say otherwise.

Thank you so much.


If low light photo can look good like this, that's to say daylight photo will be the bomb with hdr.


I have said it before that Xiaomi doesn't disappoint on battery. You will really like fast charge and Xiaomi regular OTA.


Once again, thank you so much.

We have something for you. I will ping you.

The Note 2 was brand new and so far the Redmi's battery has been holding its own against it.
The phone comes with Lollipop 5.0.2 with MIUI 6.6.7.0 out of the box.
I have not noticed Google Apps like Play Store, Google Now nor Gmail,though I normally preferred and have installed my own 3rd party App stores like 1mobile and Aptoide and there's also a Xiaomi Appstore too,there's an Email Client bundled in much like Gmail which has been serving me so far..

Can't really say,I installed Gmail but couldn't open it,don't know whether it's due to it being an outdated version or what,haven't tried a newer version yet..

Ok now I'm officially NOT interested in this phone again. Google is Android, Android is Google, any Android phone that doesn't have Google apps is a no no for me cos I'm a big fan of Google's. And I don't have time to start following any long process in order to get those apps. sad
