always remember price of phone will only drop won't increase. When everyone knows it is selling at $169 when it is launched, no one will buy at a price higher. When MI 3 is out, you will see a lot of people reselling in 2nd hand forum.

Actually, when red one come, you will see people wanting to sell grey one to get red one. No change in specs, human behaviour :)

it is a matter of time. When iphone 6 is out, iphone 5s, iphone 5 will drop, but for apple it is drop slowly cos there is a demand in parallel import and demand in 2nd hand market and trade in market.

Xiaomi is a china brand phone, the only good thing is the price tag but it is already pointing towards a low resale value with its low sale price. Good to buy as a back up phone :)

Thanks! Cheers!

Grabbed 1 set due to the hype... Now is have the grapes still say sour =:p

dunno what to do with the phone.. already have apple and samsung products... elderly parents satisfied with existing phones that they have.. used to it liao.. wont want to change and learn a new phone.. they may find the 4.7" screen too big for their liking as well...

I can only think of using the phone for reservist, go outfield, etc... bring xiaomi better than bring ur iphone 5s S4, note 3, etc right.. dirty, spoil, lost not so heartpain..
