>4,000 mAh battery
>Helio X10 processor
>$150
Well I know what my next phone will be.
0.3 seconds to unlock. Neat
>Helio X10 processor
Shit desu
>>51505873
Really solid processor for a budget/mid range device
>>51505788
Have a G3 but ill get one as a side phone or someshit.
Where can I buy?
>>51506030
Any of the Chinese sellers e.g. Coolicool.com , Dealsmachine.com, Gearbest.com. If you're in Europe you can get it from a European warehouse to avoid VAT so I think Coolicool offer shipping from Europe

Should I wait for reviews or buy now with the help of Chinese buddies?
>>51506161
It's Xiaomi so you know at least there will be no lying about the specs. You also can't really go wrong in terms of battery life when it's 4,000 mAh.
Any security test done to see if backdoors exist? Many chinese phones in the past have had backdoors and have them be exposed.
>>51506231
Well it's running MiUi 7 which is a skin on top of Android so I suppose the NSA first of all. In general the company are quite good at supporting their devices, much better than other Chinese manufacturers anyway!
>>51506258
So thats a yes, but their support is good?
Would this be a decent upgrade over a Nexus 4?
>>51506540
Yes. In fact Xiaomi publicly state that they take your personal information in their privacy policy.
>>51506699
Absolutely
>chinkshit
>>51506713
>Absolutely
The battery sounded pretty tempting and that's good enough for me.
Thanks.
Is this a Nexus 4 replacement?
>>51506855
Already asked. Yes.
>>51507446
Didn't read lol
>>51507619
haha lol
>>51506713
what information? is it safe to enter passwords and check emails on?
>>51507619
>>51507658
>>51507762
Kill yourself.
>>51507782
/g/ will love this

>>51506855
No its a iphone replacement
>>51507901
tbf it could be...
>>51506754
lol this
enjoy no root and no custom ROM/kernel
>>51508230
Wtf are you on about. Xiaomi devices get plenty of ROMs and are easy to root.
>chink
>android
If only these phones had T-Mobile USA LTE bands
>>51508311
LTE bands in the US are a clusterfuck.
>>51508292
I don't think you realise how big the Chinese market is getting. There are loads of new startups producing high quality Android devices. You only have to look at the success of Huawei with the Nexus and Xiaomi with the Redmi and Mi series. You can expect them to enter the West market soon
Cant buy it anywhere at that price tho- gotta wait til the xiaomi site has it. Also unless you wanna eat shit at 2gb ram its 170$
>>51509069
Xiaomi site won't have it for international shipping
>>51507827
Is this really true?
>>51509572
Yes look at the link
>>51507827
>credit check
holy shit
Can they fuck off with the screen size
>>51510571
I wish it was 5 inch. That is the perfect screen size.
Would it work in Canada on Rogers? That 4000 mah battery is ludicrous.
>>51511027
Rogers bands are 2G Network GSM 850 / 900 / 1800 / 1900
3G Network HSDPA 850 / 1900 / 2100
4G Network LTE 1700 / 2100 / 2600
Note 3 supports Bands:
GSM 900/1800/1900MHz,
WCDMA 850/900/1900/2100MHz,
TD-SCDMA 1880-1920/2010-2025MHz,
FDD-LTE B1/B3/B7,
TDD-LTE B38/B39/B40/B41
So I think not for 4G but yes for 2G and 3G
>>51511217
btw
GSM = 2G
WCDMA = 3G
TD-SCDMA = 3G in Asia
Then the last ones are the two different types of 4G bands
>>51511233
>>51511217
>>51511027
Also this is extremely handy! http://www.willmyphonework.net/
>>51508278
mediatek SoCs get shitty as fuck hacked together ROMs
literally, download a rom of another phone with the same soc
remove these files: .....
then copy these files from your phone: .......
then do some shit to the boot.img
there you go you have made a fucking 'rom'
>>51511483
You can get Cyanogen for a lot of Mi devices
>>51507827
You probably can avoid the botnet on the phone by installing cm without gapps. Pretty sure that xda is going to love this thing.
>>51505788
>4000mah
>no meme resolution that obliterates your battery life
They know what they are doing.
>>51511722
Yes those were my first thoughts too. MediaTek also make some really energy efficient processors
Redmi 3 when..
I don't want a chopping board as my phone..
>>51512178
Next year. Next is the Mi 5 and smartwatch
>>51513519
When's the next xiaomi event? Been waiting on the Mi5 for a while, or an American mi4
>>51513557
3rd of December is the rumour. So not too long!
>>51511695
>cm
>mediatek helio x10
mhm
>>51513592
Here's hoping for an official entry into North America (with appropriate LTE bands) - xiaomi's got a lot of fans across the pond, it would be a shame if they didn't take advantage of it.
>4,000 mAh
>Voltage not specified
>>51513620
Quite true. I'm really surprised it has only been Huawei to make a massive push this far.
>>51513658
Supports 5V/2A fast charging, can charge up to 50% in one hour
>>51514233
Come on, I meant battery voltage obviously.
>>51505788
Just buy a superior oneplus phone and stop trying to be a hipster faggot
>>51514407
> oneplus shill calling other people hipster faggots
mmmkay
>>51514407
The OPT was disappointing and stop being a fanboy, competition is a good thing!
>>51514329
Oh sorry. I have no idea. How would volts affect the battery anyway? (Electronics noob here)
>>51505788
>Helio X10
>Not X20
Why the fuck is my Amazon ShiTV the only thing that has A72 processors in it right now?
>150$ phone with Cortex A72 cores
yasss yasssss yassssssssss
Too bad it doesn't support usa lte bands
>>51514866
>X10
>A72
Fuck off retard
>>51515238
this, the only phone with the Helio X10 that does is the BLU Pure XL and they are having a hell of a time with it on xda
>>51513610
Oh shit. Completely forgot about this.
Of course, the first mipad is still a not really outdated?
>>51507827
Gee, I wonder how they're gonna sell and deliver you that device if they don't know your delivery address, your credit card number, your contact information etc.
>>51516987
you can't be this retarded
