This mobile that I got with a lot of Tuesday woes is a real marvel. Now its an year and the mobile still seems to promise me flawless functioning.
Special mention to the battery that normally fails to keep up with age is still giving me a 24 Hrs+ run. Now talking about the software, I do really appreciate Xioami to keep it updated with the newer versions time to time. The hardware is still good enough, the touch is as good as new, the volume and power button still need the gentle press.
One thing that broke was the charging cable which I replaced with a unbranded one and realise that the charging speed has tripled.
The phone in this one year has met 5 falls ranging from 3 - 4 feet and survived them all with minor scratches onto the corners.
I have never used a protective case and am 24X7 on WiFi. I talk over an hour almost everyday and record my baby videos for 10 minutes daily.
Yes a few times I experienced the video recording lagged which went away on its own - possibly with the upgrade.
I believe this review now isnt beneficial for new buyers as this phone is called off but yes for 2nd hand buyers, it would be helpful and surely it gives a good idea about the products Xioami offers. Thanks
