Xiaomi is one of the worlds biggest Mobile device manufacturers. The hardware is solid.
It is a chinese company, but not in the same league as the likes of dogee, elephone etc.. which may indeed have problems.

Xiaomi is decent quality tech at great prices.
The Mi4 is solid (I have the Mi4C which is a slightly upgraded version). clear the stock rom off it and stick stock android (if you don't like MIUI)

Don't replace your G2. Unless it's broken?

The kernel is the software on your phone that controls all the hardware (RAM, processor etc), so the intermediary between your phone hardware and Android itself.

The Kernel that LG released with Android Lollipop is outdated, inefficient and buggy. Install Dorimanx's kernel and your phone will be transformed. I'm consistently amazed by how well my G2 now works, compared to being useless beforehand.

You'll leave the Android version alone with this, no need to go with cyanogenmod or anything.

There's three different versions of Mi4. Any idea which this is? :smiley:

What the delivery time for BangGood never used them

That's a lot of phone for the cash pity Xiaomi still don't support band 20 heat tho

what's the camera like? I need a phone to replace my LG G2, any recommendations for a good phone under £150? thanks

HOT

Doesn't the Lenovo K3 note beat this with the removable battery and Octa core CPU?

​i went from mi3 to smart ultra 6. personally i would prefer the mi3 although it might be bit faster than mi3. i would go for this one if there is any uk or eu seller with similar price.

My G2 keeps freezing, I've installed SD Maid to see if that makes a difference, but no luck.

cracking price only missing SD card slot

whats a good budget phone that has OIS watching some samples on youtube of phones videos look jerky

Is this the one that has got windows 10 from Microsoft as well?

Oh , low price , Maybe it's fake .Look at official website , http://www.mi.com/mi4/

I wonder if Xiaomi will ever launch officially in UK?

I'd buy one then - A bit of a gamble otherwise for sake of £20-30 quid

Each to their own but you are still spending close to £100 for something that may not arrive or work to a decent standard

Definitely can't argue with that spec + price + brand. The Snapdragon 801 is still a pretty good chipset by today's standard. My only worry is the retailer. I personally wouldn't risk buying from them because they don't appear to have a UK base so returns and warranty issues might be a huge pain.

I got the 64gb of this in October 2014 and it is still great,got Amazon prime / Kodi and it's still superb.BEST PHONE IVE EVER HAD :wink:

As for bang good they our the best Chinese company too deal with,I ordered a Teclast x98 plus 3G tablet and it came within 14 days :wink:

LG G3 for £149 + £2.59 for unlock code from eBay https://shop.vodafone.co.uk/shop/pay-as-you-go/mobile-phones/quick-view/lg-g3-payg?isPlanSelected=

2gb ram is not enough now, but the price is pretty good

it says: £143 for price now, is it expired?

had the mi3. a great phone. don't forget to add customs charges to the price!

Did your LG G2 have a slow rubbish camera?
Does this alternative kernel fix that?
Or is my camera problem a hardware problem? Google camera has the same problem.
When switching between video and photo camera, (stock camera that came with the phone) there's a MASSIVE difference between them in terms of the viewfinder.
Video mode is of a tolerable/fast speed like looking through a block of glass but photo mode is like night mode 24/7 and the quality is a little too compressed and disappointing for 13mp.

Any help would be appreciated.

Would this be OK on GiffGaff? Sis just got her phone stolen, she's only on 3G anyway, no 4G.

Oh, just realised the price is £143.70 - though the 6% code takes £10 or so off.

I doubt that's a kernel issue. Are you sure you haven't changed some camera settings? You haven't changed the ROM presumably? Probably best PM me, as we're very OT......

Do you have to root first? Thanks

Seems to appear briefly at £91 on the page then changes quickly to £143?

Yes.

Really wanted to buy this but the price has gone up :disappointed:

​Not enough for what, everyday use?

All good EU warehouse is a week or 2 China 2 to 3 weeks.
No issues.

Fine for most uses and its loads compared to most phones! Only a few have 3GB or more!

thanks for the info

Does this take microsd?

No

No, if you want more memory you will have to buy the 64GB version.

Nice phone if you are happy with 16gb storage and no micro sd card and not all 4g frequencies(o2 mostly).

android 6??
