For the clever people who don't waste money.
It's amusing watching the iPhone owners eye up my Redmi 3. They are all jealous of the battery life. Yet they'll have no choice but to take whatever Apple gives them with the iPhone 7.
And then they look at the price. Hahahahaha! Sorry, I can't help feeling smug. But hey, if you have more money than sense... good for you (why are you on hotukdeals?!) :smiley:. No hard feelings.
Is the Redmi 3 waterproof? Who cares! At £100 I'll be grabbing the soon to be released Redmi 4. And to think some Apple die hards spend £500 (more?) every year... wow!
Go with the iPhone 7, it was designed in California. Plus, this is not water resistant. :stuck_out_tongue:
And the battery on this is too high.

Just wondering how well the phone does on the daily? I'm looking to get a bavk up phone and since this has a 720 screen and a large battery I'm guessing it lasts well?

Bit confused by the "fake store" comment at the bottom of the description?
Is there a link to trusted store?
Also, would this work with 4g on O2?
Thanks

It should work fine on O2 4G. Supplier says it has 800Ghz band used by O2 and Vodafone in UK.

It's a random seller on Aliexpress, there are some good sellers on there but this one claims to be authorised by Xiaomi when it isn't. Personally I'd never trust a store that lies to me before I've even used them.
Top-One is generally seen as the best seller of Xiaomi stuff on Aliexpress, Hong Kong Goldway are also supposed to be good as is https://www.ibuygou.com/ (who offer a 2 year EU warranty).

Geekbuying, as I pointed out on the other thread, but they are more expensive (though reliable).

i came from the Nexus 5 too.. we use a 5 inch screen, can barely tell the difference if there is any. only thing us that this phone has hardware soft buttons, meaning you get more screen space

is this purchase likely to incur customs charges? is there a specific mailing method that needs to be used to avoid it?
