Where to buy redmi 2 enhance at good price? Does it mean redmi2 is older phone than mi4?
Can buy from mi.com, $179

Should try before buying. Redmi 2 sets available at singtel shops or xiaomi service centre at clarke quay.

An older model doesn't really mean anything... i purchased an "older" model, htc butterfly 2 recently for $398, i personally find it to be ok, no issues relating to future-proofing; can be upgraded to android 5.0, etc.

when buying a phone, you need to do some research, check reviews, try out the phone physically...

mi4i & redmi 2 belong to different price range, so specs will definitely be different

you mentioned budget of $250 earlier, so forumers will not mention mi4i, which is $279 [32gb version is $319]

you should go to the respective mi4i and redmi 2 threads to read up on feedback from actual users

fyi, suggest you use exact model name; mi4 is another model, so is mi2; when you use shortcut, people will get confused
should use mi4i & redmi 2 respectively... :)

I can stretch my budget $250 - $300 since I want to hold the phone for 2yrs. Does it make sense for mi4i or even some other brands that support dual sim?

Imho, there wasn't any good phone between 250-300 range right now. The Mi4i got a serious problem, the phone heats up easily and become very slow. It's either you go with low end(below 200) or mid-high end(~$500), mid range is usually not worth it.

My requirement is only a good camera and good battery and fast internet surfing speed. Which low end phones should I look at?

Anyone knows where to buy ZTE blade s6 at good price?

have you try searching?
e.g. using the following keywords

top search results include reviews & pricing info, including zte singapore facebook page, that also mentions that demo sets are available at m1 shops & gain city shops

Poor camera? Poor battery life? Or slow Internet browsing?


- Issue with Front Camera like CCD spoil like that
- Battery cmi. I only enable 1 SIM and found battery drain very fast
- Not sure if CPU or UI. Slagging performance even enable the "Performance mode"
