First of all - I am aware the gold and silver are cheaper. But I am not a fan of the colours and as I use it most days, I want one I like the look of. After searching eBay, Gearbest, Banggood, and AliExpress, this is the cheapest available for that colour.
By visiting the mobile site you don't have to pay for the additional warranty. The price will be in $USD but add it to your basket.
Then go back to http://www.aliexpress.com, change your currency to £GBP (top right) and head to your basket and it should show £131.24 (might vary slightly due to exchange rate.
I am aware there are other good deals on 3GB RAM octa-cores, such as the P9 Lite, but I don't want larger than 5". Therefore this was the best 3GB, 8-core, snapdragon I could find in my price range and to my spec.

Not from Xiaomi, just an unofficial store using their name, albeit one with ok reviews.

This phone only came out in November 2016 so no you didn't.

Looks a great phone. Hoping they bring out a band 20 version at some point, like they did with the 3s prime. Will upgrade my Redmi 3 Pro then (which is excellent BTW).

Same thing I'm waiting for, International version with Band 20. Be nice to see some custom roms aswell.

Hoping band 20 won't be a big issue for me. On 3 mobile so it's not a primary band they use.
Apparently there's a somewhat long winded 'hack' you can do to unlock the band, not sure if I'll be up to it though.

Surely the Note 3 with snapdragon 650 and band 20 is a better bet than the Note 4 Mediatek?

But none of us mentioned or want a Note with a 5.5" screen, but yes the Qualcomm Note 3 is better than the Mediatek Note 4.

Missed the missing Note, probably as I don't cope with such small phones. :wink:

Thanks for this asc91 I've been looking for the past couple of days and felt like I was going in circles !
Very nicely laid out and easy to follow. Plus its even cheaper, I just paid 130.63.
Cheers for your help.

And here's me thinking Brexit was going to make stuff like this much more expensive :stuck_out_tongue: Heat added.

Yep still cheap, but would have been cheaper without Brexit as the price is in USD and £:USD is weak at the moment.
I'm fun at parties.

It would've been £115 at the pre-referendum rate of $1.45:£1 rate
