Yeah kinda.. Using 5S now and screen too small. Anyway I don't do much on my phone I usually use the iPad.

Tried redmi 2 and even flashed cyanogenmod on it, really cmi haha and very ugly.

I like phones with good design
Small bezels (iPhone fails in this department already)
Good battery life
Good screen quality (vibrant colors)

How about HTC Butterfly 2? Its price is quite gd now..

Thanks, you are right. This happened after my phone was over charged. Reboot solved the problem. :D

sometimes I encounter this when the battery is charged full. off and on the phone then can charge again. their service centre is at Clarke quay The Central there.

I have a g2 also. g2 performance is slightly faster. but screen quality mi4i is better. g2 gps signal is also known to be weaker. g2 is also a good choice depends on what you look for.

I won't sent in to PC if I were you. I rather use the google photo app. Quite good to use. Store photos and videos. PC goes wrong your stuffs missing.

Go thru the cloud, nothing goes missing.

Not unless you feel that your privacy is utmost important.

Yeah my concern is that one is a used phone with no warranty, the other one is a brand new phone. Haha..

How fast u want? How much pay for it? Please lah.........

It's not the hardware lah. There's clearly something wrong with MIUI. Software optimization not there. Sd615 on stock android or aosp rom will never stutter until like that

Impressed with the screen. It is seriously very nice.

m4i easily lags n run out of memory. Its always pple saying for the price, wat do u expect. The problem is how XM advertise the product to b better in hardware. So when it fails to meet our expectation from its advertising, u cannot say its only $xxx amount tat we pay, how fast do we expect it to b. Period

Anyone having this problem where after charging the phone to 100%, it stops charging (light indictor goes off) and it doesn't charge even you reconnect the cable? It will only recharge if I reboot the phone.

Before this i was using ip5 and never use an android phone b4.. Was really pissed with the lag initially lol.. Now more used to it. Will temporarily use it I find the next phone I like.

What KB you guys are using? Can recommend a similar one to iPhone?

the problem is miui

it slows down the hardware and has many many bugs that is why there is frequent updates

was using xiaomi 2 & now samsung core prime

samsung is way better than xiaomi

miui whatsapp problem is you must not clear the app or no notification whereas samsung even if you clear got notification

also playstore will not tell you to update apps until you open it

miui is great gui but did a lousy job when integrating andriod

Especially when you're coming from iOS.. But I'm getting used to it already. It's not that laggy now also
