It's a bit heavy to hold because of its large size. The sound quality is good. However, the screen needs protection. Make sure to cover the screen with guerilla glass cover. My screen broke just after 2 falls. The software is good. But hangs sometimes. Rear camera has good resolution. Front camera is average. Xiaomi doesn't offer earphones with its handset. It just provides a basic back cover which gets dirty soon. Finger lock available but it sometimes fails to detect. Overall the handset has to be handled with care. It qualifies value for money if handled with utmost care
