Apps 2 SD can be done using an app(System App Safe Remover) and rooted, but photos from camera must be stored on on the phone storage. One way is to use Camera360 as your default camera app, the settings can be used to define where you save your photos, like for example your SD card.

So it requires root to save photos on sd card? I'm not really a fan of rooting though. Besides Camera360, can other camera apps save photos onto SD card?

Cool, seems to have a rather powerful battery life! May I ask after a few days of usage, do you feel that the phone's weight is heavy, since it weighs at 199grams.

Those who bought the Mi3 at the latest price should be happy as its much better than Note for sure. Processor and screen quality alone win note hands down. Note is for budget spare phone for most people because of its dual sim function which serve great purpose during holiday in overseas.

lets not forget the additional option of micro sd expansion as compared to the mi3.

During the time when Redmi1 first launched, it was until the March IT Show the telcos started selling it. After around two to three weeks IIRC, Mi3 started selling at telcos.

Yes, its a MIUI issue apparently.

I only tried camera360 so I am not sure about other cam apps.

Why shouldn't you change to Camera360 anyway, the default Xiaomi cam app isn't great anyway. :D

Well, I have been using a Huawei Ascend Mate, which is a 6 inch phone weighing in at 199g, which is almost exactly the Redmi Note's weight, so I'm pretty used to heavy phones actually.

What I can say is the redmi note feels heavier than the Ascend mate due to the smaller size.
Though I always like a bit of weight compared to those super light phones.

Yah, it spoils the whole thing. I ordered some battery covers to change it up a bit :D



Well I only had a few hours with it as of now, so maybe in a few days I can give a small review.

So far, its good, its basically a redmi with bigger screen, which makes a big difference for me actually.

The build quality is solid, to me even better than the Redmi.
A bit heavy though, it feels heavier on hand than my Huawei Ascend Mate which is a 6 inch phone.

The screen is actually very nice and vibrant.

Its smooth, hardly any lags, the camera app lags quite a bit though.

Camera quality nothing special, rear camera quite a a lot of noise, front camera nothing great either, but don't take my word for it, i am a pixel peeper. ;)

2GB ram lets me open more apps at the same time, quite a big difference.
More storage space in Phone storage, worry less about lack of space.

So far for the price that Xiaomi Singapore is gonna release, its very much a worthy grab.
Even if you have no intention to buy a new phone, just buy one to play with or as a spare, its worth every penny.

I'm getting in a Zenfone 6 soon to do a comparison and decide which device im keeping


Btw if you are all wondering where I got it from, its from an online shop called ibuygou.com, costs quite a bit more when you include shipping, I recommend to buy from Xiaomi Singapore better.

Hi there brother kazxenon.
You mentioned that you bought it from this website. Is the phone compatable for S'pore use ?

Thanks.
