Got the Redmi note 4 global the other day from ali express (4gb 64gb) and its very very good, took 10 days no customs charge ( $39 on package) knocks my P9 lite into a cocked hat,,, running nougat now and Nova launcher ,,, great phone

Up at 6 this morning got home at 17.00 battery still on 87% :smile:

Heat from Me

Lovely, thanks :smile:

Will Three network work on this?

Mega heat!!

How much tax would I be expecting to pay if it gets flagged by customs?

What's the process like if I receive an empty box?

Does this use a Samsung camera sensor

This or the redmi note 4?

Can't select the standard bundle... Out of stock?

Is the shipping time actually between 33-53 days? I'm interested but would need it much sooner than that.

It's a 3 day deal so may come back in stock? If you add the earphone deal it comes under £100.

My Elephone P8000 battery is dying, time to replace soon.

so many versions of these phones, never sure which one to get.

Click on "Add Orig MiEarphone" and click on the Gold colour again. Price come up at £99.80 and in stock.

5.0" HD 1280x720px.

Yikes.

how would this compare with huawei P8 Lite that is available on EE (was also available from Argos a few days back) for approx 20 quid more.... that is available with peace of mind being from a UK retailer but other than that how do the phones stack up against each other?

I bought the 4gb version from these guys for approx £130. They were very efficient. Standard delivery arrived in 8 days. Phone is excellent and arrived very well packaged with a free case and screen protector. Will definitely buy from them again.

Wish i had bought the 4gb one when it was cheaper . Been waiting for what seems like ages for a price drop and it seems to keep going the wrong way.

Nice price. How's the security updates on this device?

Is this dual sim can't see specs

redmi note 4 is better but of course like £20 more

Exactly!

And that sounds about right too?

My game is mainly via BangGood, and GearBest (various stuff's from each over x-years), and only ever ordered 1 product via AliExpress ...

But in all honesty, allllll the above play the same way! (eg. like the above 2 comments have already stated?)

So, do as the above advices tells you, and your all good to go also, lol. :-)

Any good deals on the Snapdragon 625 band 20 versions? Not sure that pic is rite

I advise not buying on that store. Bought an MI6 a month ago and still has not been shipped, while they give me the run around saying "soon". They do not honour sale prices!

No option to pay by PayPal, alipay only.
I've cancelled the order now as they didn't even consider any incentive, just kept spilling the "oh, please wait, much worth it" crap!

I ordered the note 4 4gb deal. Took 10 days to arrive.

Thanks but there's a video review that is differnt like I say. Will try to find it

I've got redmi note 4 global version from same place took 2 weeks and I must say awesome place to deal with ordered a few things and never had a problem xx

Are you sure it wasn't for Redmi NOTE 4X? The China Redmi Note 4X is basically the 5.5" Redmi Note 4 Global Version except without B20. The 5.0" Redmi 4X is SD435 only.

Am I missing something, It's showing as £99.

Thanx for the clarification, lol

Are these Phones Dual SIM by any chance ...

They tend to be but the second sim card slot also acts as the microsd slot.

This deal should be expired anyway as the price has gone up by £5.

Yeah, as far as I'm aware, every single Xiaomi phone released since the end of 2014 has been dual SIM. Their last single SIM phone was Dec 2014. Every Redmi and Redmi Note phone has been dual SIM except for one. The dual SIM setup differs depending on the phone. This is Slot 1: micro SIM. Slot 2: either nano SIM or micro SD.

How did you do the nougat update?

thankyou for this, I am really tempted to buy as I have heard that it is a very good phone and takes lovely pictures. I am just worried because I am not used to chinese phones and if there could be any bugs on there etc x

does the software upgrade on this phone? I have a xiamo redmi 3 pro and whilst being a good value phone, the stock software operating system is non upgrade-able unless you hack the phone which is not the best scenario, so effectively after a years use the phone is passed its sell by date being 3 or 4 patches behind everything else. I find it very odd that any phone manufacturer could sell a phone that does not automatically upgrade the software for the operating system. Pretty ridiculous when the customer has to hack their own phone to upgrade...

Im curious why you decided to put the 5 in the title where you did, was i the only one who for a split second thought that it was something it wasnt.

I bought the Redmi note 4 global on 7th July...alas, still waiting. Most folks seem to have received theirs in 10-12 days. I know we're covered by AliExpress but be cautious!

Post 187 , really simple 5 min job, download open the update app on the phone and bingo , no root needed

Showing as £99

it's currently running miui 7 .2.99.99 which came with the phone .. only way to update from what i can see is to download a miui flash tool and then jump through a load more hoops, back up old phone info etc... clear as mud..this is just what I garnered from google search and was told nothing of this when I purchased.. my old samsung would just update automatically, so this is a right ball ache for someone who has no technical knowledge..

That is an unofficial vendor ROM installed on your phone by the seller that you bought from and has nothing to do with Xiaomi. Explanation of what vendor ROMs are, here<<. If it was an official Xiaomi ROM, you'd get OTA updates. From the number, your vendor ROM is MIUI 7. Around this time last year MIUI 8 was released and Redmi 3 Pro would have got it. The current latest official MIUI for your phone is 8.1.3.0. This thread<< has some links on how to flash official ROM onto your phone.

thanks, I will check it out.

Can anyone tell me how this would compare to a Galaxy S6? I.e. would it be a downgrade?

Thanks. I did just that. Simple 5 min job.
