Xiaomi Note 3 now R1899

That's really great cause i know if it's ever available on SA you'll pay R3.5k+ just for the phone, I want this and I might get it next month. Please share any difficulties while using, even the nice stuff with it, battery life etc.

Erm that would be kinda hard as I sold it for R5K already (Was a 3/32Gig model).... As for your R3.5K price locally I highly doubt it if the Note 3 (16 Gig Model) is still selling for R3.8.

I bought Note 4 and MI5 at the same time to see which I like best. Played with it for about 3 days and liked the Mi5 more, mostly because of size. Note 4 is not a bad phone and battery drain wasn't bad. I am sure with normal use I could get 2 days out of it easy.

Anyone had wifi issues? For about a week I thought my 20mb ADSL was out of whack as speedtests were sometimes as low as 2mb from my Note 3.

Afrihost asked me to do wired tests and all speedtests from my microserver are at full line speed. Immediately after a wired aoeedtest I run one on my Note 3 and it ia way down. Then, straight away run one on the wired microserver and full line speed again.

WTF?

Try flashing latest firmware for your model. If it still persists it's probably hardware related.
 
Guys, I am considering this as a pres for my SO.
Are you happy with the shipping and the phone itself?

Is priority line shiping safe or must I take expedited?

I took Expedited purely because of the insurance. If it gets broken or lost to reship with no cost to me. Can not comment on priority, as did and would not use them personally. For covers yes not for the phone.
 
I assume the cases and screen protectors for the redmi note 4 will work for the 4x as well?

Curiously i see the price of the other colours are $294.95 and not $189.99

Double check all that. It doesn't always work that way with Xiaomi.

The Light Green is a special edition. Gray is ok and Black looks boss.
 
Hi Guys

I need your help
The touchscreen on my Note 3 which I bought from Incredible Connection through WeChat is unresponsive.

I tried restarting it many times by holding down the power and volume buttons, but it did not work.

Does anyone else have this problem?

Do any of you know how to fix this problem, or should I just take it to Incredible Connection for repair?

Any help will be appreciated.
Thanks
 
Guys,need your advice. On my note 3 when charging, the charger becomes hot and the phone becomes hot with the temp reading stating it is 41degrees. Is this normal and with daily usage I get about 2days and 10hours. Is this also normal?

Do you have anything saved on there that's worth backing up?
If you dont,you can try factory resetting it - http://www.hardreset.info/devices/xiaomi/xiaomi-redmi-note-3/

If that doesn't work,I'd return it to incredible for a repair

Mine gets very warm too, but no 40 degree warning. Possible suspect is Google Play updating Apps...

I'm using fast charging and it's sitting at 38c

Also, did the sim card + memory card trick. Working flawlessly.

Interesting. so it takes 2 hours to fast charge?

Not sure. Haven't done solid testing yet. Just used ampere to make sure the current is at 2400.Will get back to you on that one.

Also just noticed the temperature goes up to 44c.
