Current Redmi GPS sucks, considering to upgrade to Redmi 1S (Mediatek -> Snapdragon)

I have no issue with the gps, what happen to yours? Btw I leave my gps on all the time

Just a quick check:

I have set the notification LED under the home button to light up when I receive notifications (i.e whatsapp msg) under settings -->Notification Lights.

But the LED doesn't light up at all when I received whatsapp msgs. Did i miss out something?

Is there a separate setting under WhatsApp?

To seek users opinion, I've bought a redmi and waiting for it to be shipped over.

Also very interested to get note when it's available come jun.

Currently using a lousy S2 and can't wait to change it.

1. Should I stick to the redmi and use it?

2. Wait for Note and get it?

3. Wait for redmi S1 and get it?

4. Wait for Oneplus One and get it?

Been waiting for so long already, don't mind waiting awhile longer (up til jun)

Any later than jun think will give up and use the best available phone.

The cheaper the better. Of coz if difference of +-$50 sgd still affordable la.

Need your advice bros. Which phone to get?

Does the Redmi come with headset, i.e handsfree earphones? I just got the phone ($0 recontract) from the Singtel Exlusive Retailer shop in NEX, top floor. Realised there's no earphones....

No headset in package, xiaomi sells its "piston" in-ear headset separately

Wait.

In the meantime, do more research. E.g. Oneplus One is a high-end phone, not directly comparable to Redmi phones

Alr did quite substantial research.. Thing is can't wait too long as got the Redmi and waiting for shipping.. If confirm wait, need to wait how long and need to let the Redmi go...

Have you looked at alternative models already available? E.g. honor 3c, honor 3x, etc.

open the map when you are on fast moving vehicle (car, bus, taxi, train, etc), you will see how slow redmi updating the position compared to iphone or android with snapdragon

Thanks! I'm guessing that we can only order via the website and that you can't just go down to Clarke Quay to buy?
