Xiaomi Mi4 Review: Excellent Hardware for a Fair Price | Pocketnow

It's my Best Partner . today my phone 3rd Birthday ....i love u Baby

When pocket now used to review Xiaomi phone!

mi4 or redmi 3 pro?

Its just an all round fantastic phone. Got mine from the EU warehouse

@pocketnow which themes is he running on his mi4..the settings app looks translucent and amazing??

no I think Mi is more like sony M series . somebody please show me a mi is capably taking a video under water!?

Does anyone know if this phone will work in Canada on Rogers?

i want my phone to have ZERO side visuality! Why would I want a phone with privacy!

what do you think if xiaomi mi4 compare with oneplusone? which one is the best mate?

Which version of xiaomi 4 is better between LTE AND WCDMA?

Personally I think the z2 and z3 blow this phone out of the water.

Your face looks stupid when taking selfies

I reached 3080 with my Mi 3 on geekbench (put the phone in performance mode)

Using this for 2 and half months now and I'm totally satisfied with this device. MIUI 6 brings better stabilty to the phone. I havent tried out miui 5 but reviews says miui 6 handles ram usage better than miui5. I'm still looking for ways to improve low light imaging, apart from that , this is a beast of a device.

Around 4 mins, you mention that the phone lags. I'm guessing this is a software issue. Have you checked out MIUI 6 and noticed an improvement? Please respond as soon as possible, because I'm looking for a new phone, but I'm tried of lags and crashes. : P

so basically... buy it.. root it.. and install stock android

All the phones he recommended cost nearly 1,000 dollars like shut up dude

Dona bend, scratch and droptest please! Thanks 😀

exactly worthy but not reliable as flagship 

Bro, you can't believe how relieved I am to see your review.
Till now, I've been searching for reviews on this phone and the mi 3, and I've been so unfortunate to have Indian fools do the review. You can't imagine the pain I had while watching them unbox the phone.
They keep telling us each and every single unnecessary step;

"I am pulling the sticky tape now"
"I'm going to pull over the cover"
"My nails aren't too long to peel the sticker"
"In going to use a 'cutter' to remove the tape"
"As you can see it's much easier to remove the tape with the cutter"

Oh god!! And then they try to make jokes about the "made in China" tag....

Man fuck those fools...

You are supposed to enable floating apps in the settings

i think all the bugs will be fixed in miui 6

My Mi3 never freezes and with MiUI. I personally thinks MiUI is great since it comes rooted without a lot of crappy commercial applications. I don't think this is common, maybe this phone had som problems.

I have questions about network compatibility. Telecom vs Unicom China. Which will work outside of China?
Also a question pertaining to 4G. When is 4G a big benefit? Does it make any difference with average phone use, and internet use?

bad iphone 5 copy, xiaomi would be sued for copying apple 

Even though this was a great review, it's hard to take the closing statements seriously when 3 inferior phones (relatively speaking) are recommended over the Mi4.

I've personally played with the S5, M8, and G3 and found them to be worse than the Mi2, let alone the Mi4.

Botnet Botnet

The 8MP front camera is a nice selling point, but practically meaningless

WOAH.. What Happen With Creativity and Originality??? This Looks Like an iPhone 5 with the iPhone 4 back and an Galaxy s4 camera!!! Total Copy

Hi, thanks for the review. I have MI2S for a year and i experienced same issue in touch, in my device it happens lots of time and thats annoying.
I want to buy MI4 but i didn't know this problem is also in new device...so maybe i reconsider what device to buy...

Camera are SGS4 's camera clone.The body like Ip5

..HOTMESS so ???Slices with ease.???...Not remarkable call quality...Screen freeze...???...Ress not great,washed out???
...YET U say i is a Solid recommend??...$$$$$$$???...

it really looks like an iphone on ios 7

Which theme are you using on this video ? it look really cool :) 

I could only watch 3 minutes of it. I've decided it's crap. 

the miui is just the same as ios 7 such a copycat as chinese manufacturers cannot simply think of a design or come up with any idea of how to make something different from others........ so disappointed!

This is the first time I've ever heard about Xiami.

They tried to beat the Oneplus One, they tried

Such a shame you can't change the battery out...

lovely story bro.. but can u make a review on the huawei honor 6 which scored 38k+ in antutu..
please..?

Only the Chinese model of mi4 has no google services

I was never excited for the Mi4, but I had no idea it was this problematic. My main problem has always been MIUI. No Google services/apps is basically saying this isn't an "Android" phone, and no app drawer makes it look so much more like iOS than Android (the icons contribute to the iOS-look too).

Software and hardware is obviously inspired by Apple, so now it's clear why many people call Xiaomi the "Apple of China".

Anybody considering Moto x+1 instead of this android iPhone??? 

I would love this phone if it had pure kit kat

mixed bag you say... I'm buying software, not hardware... 

also backdoor sending data to the servers in China
good luck with that bro (the CCP is worse than NSA)

What is the role of the ir blaster at the top of the phone

More Xiaomi reviews Plz. Btw Remdi 1s did not get a full review, did it?

It looks like the Nokia 935 * _*
