The smartphone seems stunning from its looks. After viewing its specifications and detailed review from video, I personally like it! It is astonishing to find that Xiaomi Mi3 is being compared with top-notch brand models like Galaxy Note5, Nexus 5, HTCOne, Glaxsy S4 etc. I’m just disappointed with only one thing that it does not support 4G LTE, as remaining other models have.

The Pre-registration starts today. After reading the technical specifications, one can even neglect the Chinese brand, but the stated price (Rs 14,999) seems to be high, according to me. Let's see, whether it impresses the users or not!:finger::cat::)

Let me correct you. Xiaomi is a chinese manufacturer that manufactures to Western Standards. Its not some mmx, karbonn crap. You "Will" receive software updates every week, yes every week and you will get absolutely stunning hardware and from the looks of it, very good ass too. Only a fool would ignore one of the biggest and most respected brands in china. I would never have thought to buy Xiaomi if it wasn't for their MIUI rom. Its integration into the cloud is still better than what google has.
 
Yes, remember the days when Nokia N70 owners used to make fun of N72 owners for having been stingy and missing out on 3G phone with front camera...

BTW,
Is #478, 80 ft road , koramangla address for pizza hut? Maybe its in the same complex..
 
By the time 2G picked up in India, they brought in 3G and now 4G is in existence but limited!
Neither 2G or 3G plans were good or are any good! Just a way to extract more from the customer but sub par plans with a cap on everything!

What are you going to do with 4G when such content is not there that probably can utilize things! Hope the telecom companies had atleast kept 3GB of data as standard, with 1GB of data at this age, just browsing a couple of videos eats up the entire data! Its doesnt even run a whole 30 days cycle, oh sorry is it 21 days now?
 
Mi3 price even more attractive 14k - link. That will bring it to <15k with a case/bumper.
--------------
Coming to the 'G's - hope whosoever launches their devices would be like Google's - compatible with all the 4G technologies.

I had a N73 - great (3G) phone, never had an opp to use even 2G data on that due tolocation :(
India had a great opp to jump into 4G directly, but no, we went like Europe, sky-high license fees that resulted in still-birth of 3G. Let's see what happens to the next 'G'.....
 
i register but i will begoing out of city from 18 th to 30th ,so i will be able to get after 1st aug .i hope they have the stock till

That is like 99% of the population and most people outside the forums. You see it is very difficult to change people's perception about chinese brands and chinese phones. You would see (for now) people going for MMX but would avoid Xiaomi, however good the phone is.
 
Redmi 1s "early august" and Redmi Mote "late august".
Only silver color available at launch? Damn I wanted a black one.

I guess Xiaomi want to see the response to Mi3 and then decide on future course in India.
anyway My guess is they will be getting 5000 units in at a time.

p.s. Redmi 1s looks so beautiful in red atleast in videos on youtube. It is something like LG used to make (If anyone remembers the chocolate, but in red)
 
What's with all the MMX bashing? Whom did their phones hurt? I have personally used Canvas HD and Canvas turbo. Both are VFM phones....
The specks of Mi3 is right off the planet (for the price I mean)
Don't go comparing it with nexuses and s5s .. in that theory Ferraris and Lamborghinis should be the only existent cars and porches (better vfm and more practical) should be extinct!

Phones and cars can't be compared, so don't. So canvas series sucked donkeyz bawls. You say(or used) they were VFM doesn't make them one. It only means, you didn't knew better.
 
Oh yeah Sobirvs? So what kind of an expert are you? Did you use a Canvas phone to comment on it. Kindly enlighten what kind of a phone you would have suggested in 12.5k near HD launch. Let's see if you know 'Any Better'. Regarding my commenting on it being VFM. It was. For me. Period.
Anything can be compared if you have the abstract capabilities.
BTW.. using slangs would be way cooler if you are not spelling out of your 'donkey' (pun intended)

I agree. I had a Karbonn A5 for a year. It was pretty smooth and was even able to play asphalt 7 well. I sometimes jump on the bandwagon of bashing these phones cuz its fun to do so :p . For a general user, the low end karbonn phones and high end S5 wont make much of a difference. 90% of people listen to music, make calls(do they?) , chat on watsapp and play subway surfers. Thats it. The rest 10% obsess over specs and enjoy bashing something even tiny bit inferior. ;)

Lol, actually the Xiaomi build quality is much much better than anything other than sony on the market. When they joke and call them apple of china....its for that very reason.

And i am the 1% that wants to root and screw their device for no reason at all :rolleyes::writing:
 
Nailed it srkmish. I had a hard time around my Samsung s and iPhone wielding friends who made fun of my MMX status. It's not that one cannot afford a Nexus or a 5s .( hot deals section here can get you one for cheap too) it's the fun of an underdog beating the high end phones. Same is the case with Xiaomi... when I tell people that it's my next phone... They still raise their eyebrows for an unheard company.
It's better the vSobirvs type of people stick to their S5s.... After all how will the Samsung's of this world survive without suckers like that.[DOUBLEPOST=1405453526][/DOUBLEPOST]Add up your percentages mrnikhilsudo
I have dismantled many of my phones, painted ( yes, with black oil paint) one poor one, stuck leather cutouts, rooted all my androids... ext..
It's not no reason, it's called human curiosity and simple plain 'keeda' ;)
