Xiaomi redmi note

[halocast]

I sold mine at cost (phone + glass screen protector), but lose like a few dollar since round off, and have to add transport and time spent to apply screen protector. LOL. Sold just minutes after posting.

Moved off to another phablet in the same category, HTC Desire 816. Redmi Note performance is decent. But the Desire 816 with just a snapdragon 400 at 1.6GHz and 1.5GB of RAM, is faster at everything. Not that the Redmi Note is slow, but the Desire 816 is just noticeably faster. In some instances even the Moto G felt smoother when scrolling in apps, browser, or the app list. Xiaomi really needs to work on optimising their OS.

The Redmi Note is awesome for its price, but for a better experience I would rather pay more for the HTC, and I did.

How's this for back on topic?

so fast!
The reason for the smoothness.. largely got to do with miui.. also because its based on the old jellybean... hopefully kitkat miui will fix the issues

Yeah. they really need better optimisation. The SoC in the Redmi Note is supposed to be really good. But is let down by MIUI. MIUI has a lot of nice features, and I actually don't mind using it, but it just needs to be more efficient.

Lol. less than 1 week sell liao lo. My turn over normally very fast, unless i find something I really like.

I sold mine after 2 days. The reception battery drain was killing me.

Can i ask is it possible to view whatsapp msgs just like iphone ?

Like you dont need to unlock your screen and you can read them .. Is it possible ?
Or must i root the note to do it ?

yes you can. don't need to root.
just go into whatsapp
Settings --> Notifications --> Popup notification --> Choose an option

it will wake your phone up when a whatsapp message comes in and show you the message

Just fired up my brand new Note today, noticed a distinctive yellowish tint in the screen. Is it normal (as in will go away by itself after a while), or is it a defect? Anyone else experiencing this?

Kindly post in the right places in the forums. While I understand it can be hard to get noticed amongst the sea of Redmi note ads there, this is NOT the place to post your item for sale. Cheers.

Anyone having this same issue?

Its over rated hype. I am currently facing problem with their touch screen. It sometimes self "shift" itself when my fingers r not even close to the sides.

The touch screen goes bonkers when I placed it too near any laptops.

Miui interface tends to lagg abit when I have 3 apps on background.

A bit disappointing even if it was a record sales every week.

Roughly how long does the phone last? Planning to bring to army. Bought 2 extra battery for the 2 week confinement.

iirc, army allows to bring under 5" phones.
nevertheless, battery able to last long. bring few more battery just in case.
