The one I got isn't really going to protect the phone from much. It is a thin piece of plastic. The yu cover is nice and thick.
Thanks. Will change the order to another Yu cover if the clear one doesn't come through.

Another issue is the head phone jack is slightly obstructed so you can't clip the jack in properly.

The clear case I received was branded as a Yu case. Good quality. Has little flap thingies to cover the headphone jack and USB port. The Yu Rugged case would be better if you on the move. Glad we have options for cases and they are priced well.

MIA are teasing the Redmi Note 3 on facebook. They've mentioned an expected price of R3799 or there abouts.

They had it briefly on their site for that price, also no screen protectors for the note 2 yet.

Guess what dropped into my father in law's postbox

Am remitting more funds on Wednesday . The rate went down furthur. So technically it's going to cost me less than I estimated before.

If you buy 2 at a time, you can get 10% off. Should have done that

280 x 18.73 = 5245
Less 10% = 4720.50

Very tempting. How reliable are they? And how long does it take? Do they ship via post office?

It's about time, the new Mi Band has been released. I wonder if we will ever see it here?

That's not a bad price actually, considering that a vanilla Mi Band without the heart rate sensor goes for ~R300 on Bidorbuy

I asked the MIA Group about it and they said they're waiting for confirmation from their sources. Also the Redmi Note 3 Snapdragon should be listed within a week or so, but only the 16/2GB ram version.
fyi
Zeek has the Mi band 2 in stock now. http://www.zeekonline.co.za/products/xiaomi-mi-band-2-smart-fitness-tracker-black
