Take note: 小米5这次的全网通3.0，则是任意卡槽均可设置为主卡，支持中国移动、联通、电信4G+/4G/3G/2G，当主卡使用移动、联通4G时，副卡最高支持联通3G网络语音电话.

Why not? 1% of China population is already 14 million.

Xiaomi sell only from web. Assuming 14 million, how long will it take to ship?
Guess the number is inflated just like previous.

This is a great buy man

for android 6.0 (marshmallow), when you insert a sd card, you can choose to format it as internal storage. this way it extends the capacity of the internal storage. the sd card will not be able to be used in other device (unless you format it again).

But, will this happen to Xiaomi phone running Miui?

That is the pre registered to order, not actual order. The first post did not said how much phones was on sale for the first batch. Xiaomi do not have the capability to make so much phones in short time.

So it will take 3 months or longer? This number should make Xiaomi #1 in 2016 may be?

if the wait is really so long, i'll probably settle for local Redmi Note 3 (if the price is right)

Actually mi4i is a budget version of mi4.. spec wise

so the 4i is not like the iPhone 4s (successor to iPhone 4)

Yes, the recently-announced Mi 4s is the upgraded Mi 4(like how iPhone 4s is a upgraded iPhone 4), the Mi 5 is the successor to it.
The Mi 4i is sort of a downsized Mi 4 you can say it haha

Should be a upgrade from Mi4 and not Mi4i.

The question you should be asking is when it would be coming to Singapore if it is even coming in the first place and what options would be available in Singapore...

Since the Mi 5 likely supports concurrent 4G data/3G voice, it would be interesting to know if other dual-sim phones like Xperia X Performance which use the Snapdragon 820 also support that feature.

If they do, I think it's highly possible the Snapdragon 820 is the 1st chip with that feature, which would explain why previous phones were limited to 4G/2G. I find it hard to believe any OEM would intentionally limit a phone to 4G/2G unless it's a chip limitation.

I am waiting for this phone and i wonder which SKU will they bring in to Singapore. i doubt Pro version will be available.
