Xiaomi MI-2

[Ockie]

So...any of you guys planning or thinking about ordering this phone? I found a website where you can order it. Think www.androidsale.com or something. Not sure if I will...but have to say....I am very tempted. Maybe a Xmas prezzie to myself hehe.

Also tempted. I want a phone that has a 4.3" screen as the S3 and one X just seem too big. It also seem to match or exceed them both on all the specs from a quick glance. Maybe not the gpu.

Hmm, very tempting. Just don't know how reliable this brand is, its not like a can take it to any shop here to repair it.

Can't find the phone through the website search, how much does it go for?

 

[Ockie]

$400.00 and free shipping I think.

I am also worried about the reliability of the brand and support. Think you can send it to them for repair and they will then send it back...but that will take long and cost a lot for courier fees.

Hmm, okay so it looks like it has the best bits. Will look at some youtube clips later to see if it fits well together.

These guys produce phenomenally specced phones. The MI-1 was an absolute beast for like $200. It even had a transreflective LCD display (i.e. perfect sunlight visibility, no reflections outdoors). I'm a big fan. Great reviews as well. And support for multiple roms with startup launch switcher. They're way ahead of the game imo.

Btw it should be $310, why are you paying $400?

I still have my S2 and it is still more than fine. I thought you got a motorola recently? Why you need a new one. And I am just looking at the moment.

You are?? Can you post pics or something? How is the screen? How much did you pay and where did you get it?

And why are you posting from California?

Ja...but still. Such a high spec phone with JB for so cheap. Very tempting!

PS...you not living up toyour nick with questions like that!

It looks like a great phone, but it'll be very hard to get your hands on it without paying premium for it! Even people in China struggle to get it

They were looking at expanding to the US last I heard.

 

[Ockie]

Have emailed expansys and asked if they will considering bringing this phone in. I hope they will.

 

[Cyclone101]
