Xiaomi MI 3

A colleague who ordered it got it too. In the first day itself the phone slipped from his hands resulting a dent on the side. Luckily the screen is intact. A case is a must for this phone.

Phone arrived today. The build quality is 8/10 (very good). The sim tray does not line perfect with the flat phone top. But that would be nitpicking. MI3 is bigger in height compared to my LG G2.

Everything including WiFi, sensors, speakers, charging, etc are working well. MIUI is very smooth with occasional lag. Since I use iPhone 5S as backup device, I know the little micro stutters which all Androids face. MI3 is no exception.

On connecting to the WiFi, there was 600+ MB update and it was successfully installed bringing the software to V18. I did a full factory reset, charged the phone 100% and packed it up. Now it's ready to be sent to Pune for my brother.

Btw, I did not receive any invoice with the package. How does the warranty work?

my nexus 5 has never lagged. not even microstutters

lol..Nexus users should really try Mi3..And they will know the difference in performance!!
I felt a much smoother experience in Mi3 than Nexus 5

Well I have tried both N5 and Mi3 side by side. N5 is definitely snappier.

There comes a stage when you realize that arguing with Apple fanboys is not worth the time.
