I have been using this set since three months. I am using its 4, 64 variant. It's design is amazing. It's curved sides make it very good in handling. It's big screen increases its picture clarity. The mic and sprakers are on the bottom side and looks very attractive. The performance of speaker is nice. Coming to it's photo quality, it gives an hd effect to the photos both taken from rear as well as front cameras. The blur effect is very good in portrait mode due to provision of two cameras on the rear side. It also has a front flash which is a great thing. Overall the performance is very nice and it is a value for money product from xiaomi.
