I'm skeptical about this particular phone . It seems like a fad which will soon fade off . I don't fancy the idea of somebody in China being able to secretly track down my phone and have access to all the information

The rumours ongoing the 'spyware' installed on the phone, stealing ppl's data etc... is it substantiated by any facts or just a malicious rumor?

Any IT security experts can help to comment?

Thanks

I've sold my redmi note 4g after 3 weeks of usage. Other than the superb battery life, nothing good about it. Camera quality is very bad for redmi note 4g. Bought a samsung note 4 from mobile square.

How can you compare a $229 phone with a $920 phone?
