Hi guys, I just bought this 4x today. Gaming wise, yes, not up to standard. The rest of the browsing and message still perform up to task. Can't expect much from a $219 unit. By the way, can I use other rom instead of the miui?

Thanks for the information. Seems like 4x performance wise is quite bad for gaming. Multitasking seems fine.

How does the Snapdragon 435 compare with old flagships like Mi 3 with Snapdragon 800? Is it at the very least slightly faster altho it's low-end?

For gaming the note 4/4X is better with X20/SD625 processors. The 4x comes with sd435 processor, which is lower end than sd625/X20.

Xiaomi unlike Apple, smaller screen size means lower spec.

Sent from Xiaomi REDMI NOTE 4 using GAGT

Redmi 4 Prime is 5 inch but SD 625. Was hoping it would be brought in.
But I thought I read someone posting that it does not support all 3G bands unlike the 4X.

Upon further research from GSMarena:

4X -
LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 5(850), 7(2600), 8(900), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)
Speed HSPA 42.2/5.76 Mbps, LTE-A (2CA) Cat6 300/100 Mbps

4 Prime -
LTE band 1(2100), 3(1800), 7(2600), 38(2600), 39(1900), 40(2300), 41(2500)
Speed HSPA, LTE

Means what.

Lol :s13:
400 series is meant for budget phone with near to mid range performance.

800 series is meant for those who can afford a beast performance phone.

So in this comparison 400 series will nv be faster than 800 series.

Can't seem to find black colour for the 4X.. Was fiddling with this phone at Mi store suntec. Also is there double tap to wake for this phone?

For 4x, does the back button < light up?
Is note4 @ $259 better for gaming?

You mean the back and multitasking buttons? Nope they don't light up but notification led does light up.

Note 4 better as long as 6 series chipset in place. 4x having 4 series chipset is not good for gaming.

Hope it helps you..
