The Singapore edition of the Redmi already comes with the Google Play Store apps. If you hit the china one, you might need to flash it with the Singapore ROM.

Make sure the phone is wcdma as well

The only fault that I have w the Redmi is its lack Bluetooth 4.0 i think. Can anyone confirm this? Damm it .. Cannot sync w my fitness trackers. Error message that the app is not applicable with my device.

It is 4.0 as according to xiaomi's site..

Mi-3 is Bluetooth v4.0 and Redmi is v3.0 according to the specs.

anyone have any complaints for their SG version of Redmi?

Many people have complained that they didn't manage to buy 1 after 3 attempts.

 

[galliano]

Mi-3 is Bluetooth v4.0 and Redmi is v3.0 according to the specs.

Oddly, most reviews state Bluetooth 4.0. Guess a lot of confusion.
