yup. installed that. on Redmi3 it is working fine however on my mi5 google contacts and calendars failed too sync. Even after installing the new version and updating their respective permissions. Followed through the tutorial however the most important 2 functions is still not functioning. Gave up and used miflash to reinstall back global stable 7.2.4

All my contacts and calendars are in google.
I do the troublesome way, export contact and import to miui cloud.

Anyway, I'm impressed by the battery life even I'm on both sim on. 70% mark with 2hr sot.

I believe new star at sim lim have stock

any disadvantage of the phone?
Hmm, one gripe I would say about the mi5 is the questionable quality check/control on the physical home button. It doesn't seem to register a press when you press on it at certain angles. At first I thought it was only my set having this issue but upon checking mi forums, the issue seems to be common with other owners as well. Not sure if Xiaomi actually fixed this in newer batches. Other than that it's really a great device especially at it's original asking price. I liked it's compactness, build quality, snappy performance, decent cameras and solid battery life. :)
