Xiaomi Mi 4c - User Reviews

  • Hi. I can help you. Are you still interested? If so, reply to this message. Cheers.

  • Hi, idk whats happen, but when i turn it on, it showing fasboot loop. can u help me to solve this?

  • I also still use it until now

  • I have this phone (Mi 4C, 32/3 GB ram) since end of 2015 and it's still working good until now except the battery. I'd already changed the battery twice, maybe because of my usage for (battery-drainer) gaming. But overall, this phone is fine - as long as you feel comfortable with its display size which is considerably small these days.

  • After a bit of googling I chose Nohon BM35 back then. Personally I ordered from this specific shop: But probably most shops on Ali Express which carry this Battery are fine.

  • please give me the battery link in ali express

  • I also still use my Mi4c, but what I can really suggest is switching out the battery after a while. After 2 years I only got 1h 30min SoT on a full charge. After I ordered a new battery from AliExpress for 14€, which arrived after 10 days, and switched the battery out (not that hard), I get like 4 times the SoT. Now with 10.1 xiaomi.eu ROM and the new battery it is like the perfect phone. It was comparitly cheap back then, but you can get some used now for under 100€, which is very good.

  • These phones were real hidden gems. Fast CPU in 5.0 inch form, cameras not crap in low light (way better than redmi note 3 pro). Using the latest MIUI 10.1 stable xiaomi.eu builds - the final stable build for this phone after 3yrs of MIUI updates (it's officially discontinued for updates now), get about 5hrs SoT and zero complaints about lag. USB-C and quick charging in a budget 2015 phone. Nobody cares to upgrade their Mi4C yet, they don't want to get a bigger heavier phone and there's almost no point for them to upgrade with their basic use. $300 total bought 3 strong smartphones for my family they've been in use for 2 years and still going. They will probably only be replaced when the battery is no good, not because poor performance or desire to upgrade. This phone never received an official global ROM, and didn't have bootloader protections to prevent resellers from rooting and shoving adware into the phone, but if you flash the xiaomi.eu build this phone is still quite good for what it is.

  • I wanted to check my phone and I could not do that. Please help

  • HOW? Can you please help me?

  • Using this phone since two years with the then latest stable version of Cyanogen Mod. Works like a charm, battery lasts two days and I have no complaints whatsover. Great product for a good price.

  • i paid this 50 dollar with 2 year warrant using it since 12 months drop it more than 10 time this phone is like old wine it just get better while aging

  • Yes mi4c support usb OTG. I am use converter micro usb C to usb (for flashdisk). Work properly to transfer data.

  • Does Mi 4C support USB OTG? Actually it isn't clear to me about USB OTG capability, has it to do with hardware or software related?

  • and what have you done with 4c?

  • Should have been a really good phone but it's severely marred by factory installed advertising spam malwear, this was not disclosed on their website or the sellers website, consequently xiaomi are using my data bandwidth to feed me unwanted spam without my permission This wouldn't be so bad but I have to contend with their abusive delays in getting the unlock code for hardware I open so I can replace their Trojan horse os with a clean Android load Of course their website is in Chinese making it harder than necessary to request the code to unlock I have to swipe twice to unlock, the first time to remove the sensory assault spamvert For this reason I cannot recommend xiaomi products and advise buyers insist on checking the phone is clean before purchase

  • The glass was broken twice, and my Mi 4c is just in the recycle bin.

  • I don't know the kenzo, but the mi4c is a great machine, especially the camera

  • Ok I simplify my question: *used redmi note 3 pro 3/32 Kenzo or *this phone (Mi 4C), used, (about $20 cheaper) Both are in good conditions. Anyone please?

  • Just flash any Oreo rom on XDA. Soooooo smooth.

  • You should, is more faster and smooth.

  • Anyone with mi4c with xiaomi.eu rom nougat? Does it work good? because I read older reviews that it is not, im thinking if i should update or not. (Currently still with android 5)

  • What motorola and why? Ty

  • Bought 2 of those on October 2016. After 1 year both had to get a battery replacement. The battery went dead. For one of them it may be my fault since I left it drain completely and then charge it, which is wrong for Lithium batteries. However older smartphones I had never had such issues. In addition after a minor fell with a silicon tpu case (table hight drop) the case went black. I replaced it and it works again. Notice that if i did not have the technical skills to carry over the repairs I would have 2 bricked phones or payed a lot in services. Consider the redmi series, or motorola...

  • Found this cheap on used market, good condition. Cheaper than a used Redmi Note 3 Pro (which is always be my benchmark point, and is superior on performance).. Mi series is on higher place than the Redmi Note series, so I have some hope on this Mi 4c, although it's older and slower etc. Anyway, is it worth to buy this Mi 4c compared to the Redmi Note 3 Pro? Ty

  • Why mine often blue screen on MIUI 9.1 multi Rom same as yours?

  • Lost my Ph, Pink Mi 4c. How can I get it, Please help me. I think another one stolen my Ph.

  • Bought this phone today for $95 (Refurbished) 3/32. I flash MultiRom base on Miui 9.1 (Android 7.0). And the results is simply Awesome.

  • The Mi4C uses Concore glass which is a product of Gorilla Glass but has the LCD and Digitizer fused together.

  • yep, i tempted to buy mi a1, but after seeing a1 doesn't have fast charing im off, mi4c benchmark is higher than a1 aswell on antutu, this phone rock till this day, great camera on daylight but on low light its bad, but a1 doesnt do better too on low light, so i will keep this phone till i have money to buy flagship phone oh yeah im using android 7.0 with miui 9, and i drop this phone a lot, but this phone is durable as hell

  • Because no one answered so i prove it my self Here is the good list i've got from updating to miui 9 - idk but the speaker seems louder now - charges faster - battery life is improved a lil bit - faster and lighter ui - split screen - native screen recorder And yes as someone below said, I don't think I need to upgrade my phone as well. Perhaps I'll be upgrading when android 9/10 is out

  • Are the camera and battery life also improved? I am downloading this update 393 MB and need to know about battery life. Tysm

  • Made my day :D

  • My phone fell 100 times, not even scratch on my screen

  • Where did you find that Mi4c is getting Miui 9? Thanks in advance...

  • after the miui9 and android nougat update, this phone is blazing termendously superb. planning on changing to mi5, but nope, this phone is still the best bang for buck, can do split screen, can use playstore on china rom, no need to flash, xiaomi still update this phone even it few years old already. maybe because of the sd808. 9/10. if got fingerprint will give 10/10. perfect as a backup phone too. battery still rock after several years of usage

  • Hi please help where can i turn on Volte option? My ROM is china stable MiUI 8

  • now it's getting MIUI 9.. lightning fast !

  • Just reflash using miflash tool

  • I've been using xiaomi product since 2014 from redmi note, redmi 2, mi4i and now Mi4C. Mi4C is the best budget phone for me. In terms of the screen 441 ppi man! Oh come on. And I have Nougat on it, and damn its super sophisticated. The camera itself is so much betteeeer than samsung, even iphone 6. Cause I love 5.0 inch phone its not make my arms hurts instead of using 5.5 inch phone. The battery life also perfect, it could last for more than 12 hours (depend on the phone usage). But some of my tips to not activate background process and turn on batteru saver could really help to extend battery Life. Overall i haven't have a thought to change this phone yet.

  • Recently at nougat miui 8 stable. Miui 9 coming, currently in beta channel. Been using this phone for 1 year now. SOT about 4.5 hours in nougat. Really good phone, definitely better than any redmi series in term of performance.

  • now it's get nougat , camera still better than midrange phone 2017 ..

  • U bought in dec 2015 and still using in july 2015??.. Its kicking ass

  • haha. nice one

  • Bought this Dec 2015. today is July 2015, Still Alive and Kickin Ass!..

  • my phone fell down more than 20 times it did not brake. So if you are not a user of this phone why you comment?

  • No gorilla glass, the screen can brake easily

  • android 7 miui 8.5.1.0 nxkcned official over OTA only english and chinese works good

  • What not true??

  • Not true

  • Messaging app crashes, I have to run it twice(miui 8.0.50.0, secure fix 2016-07-05). No update available, any ideas how to fix it? Thanks

  • Does anybody complain, eh?

  • I was updating (stable rom miui 8.2.3) my phone when I accidentally rebooted my phone.Then I've got into a bootloop.I've tried everything but nothing worked for me,I'm desperate and idk what to do.Can you help me?

  • Try to set your dowload limit to unlimited.

  • Just Take the ROM from Xiaomi.eu. stable, Close to global, Google preinstalled, newest Google security Patch.......nothing to complain about......

  • Best of the best for its price! You just have to find a suitable and comfortable ROM.

  • how to downgrade it? i already update it to nougat, and yeahh it has so many bugs, especially on play store, i cant download any apps because of waiting for wlan issues

  • Don't update to Nougat CN Stable. It has many bugs!

  • The camera is insane.For me,the camera should be the highlighting point of purchasing this devices.Although,the mi4c is very underrated and people only noticed the Redmi Note series.

  • Just search xiaomi eu rom download. Install those custom rom, make the phone perfect.

  • You have to use the Kitkat Gapps and then update Google Services after install.

  • Can't say it was installed properly or not. I followed the instructions, first install this, second install this, third install this, etc, follow the number and sequence at en.miui.com forum. Don't know why it act weird at that time.

  • I have had it since launch running Google Services without issue. You didn't install Gapps properly.

  • The weather app was OK at that time. I had done tutorial install Google apps step by step on Android Nougat following from en.miui.com, and the result, every time I open Gmail it said 'Gmail is having problem with Google services'. So, I decided to sol Xiaomi Mi 4c and bought Vivo V5.

  • Install Google Services on Chinese ROM and replace the weather app and you have Global ROM.

  • I didn't blame Mi 4c, I just didn't agree of Xiaomi way that persistent to stick on China rom only for Xiaomi Mi 4c, so many user of Mi 4c in the forum en.miui.com who ask global rom. I should understand that Xiaomi has its own decision to make global rom or not, so.... now... if I would like to buy Xiaomi smartphone again, I would better choose global rom available Xiaomi model smartphones.

  • You could have left it on MIUI and would have no problem with Google Services, don't blame the phone for your crappy ROM choice.

  • Yes, a little mistake I bought Mi 4c.

  • Really the best phone money can buy. Cheap, good build quality, 5inch 1080p display, 2/3 ram... You really can't find phone so cheap with snap 808 cpu. Just need to install mi4c charged mod(uses lg l4 thermal engine and prevents phone from throtling + it adds more power)

  • now it is different and there is a global rom for redmi note 4 MTK china only version...Chech that yourself

  • Thank you for the reply. I had sold my Xiaomi Mi 4c. Personally I dislike unlock bootloader, it void warranty.

  • Just go xiaomi.eu firmware with preinstalled Gapps already. Need unlockbootloader first btw.

  • yes it is

  • Yes it is. LTE Name Interface B1 (2100) LTE B3 (1800 +) LTE B7 (2600) LTE B38 (TD 2600) LTE B39 (TD 1900 +) LTE B40 (TD 2300) LTE B41 (TD 2500) LTE

  • Its xiaomi mi 4 c was 4 G LTE ?

  • Minus Mi 4c - In Android N official developer rom, I frequently didn't receive message on WhatsApp real time. I should open WhatsApp in order to receive message. - Preinstalled keyboard is Sogou keyboard. Again, it is Chinese language also

  • I was ex user of this smartphone. Here are my experience using this Mi 4c: Plus: + It is cheap, very good specs + Has colorful color model choice + Camera is good, play game also good + Charging is very good, work fast Minus - I hate Chinese rom, some apps that populer in Indonesia need Google Play services work better - No Play Store and Google apps thing in preinstalled - Mi Store, Mi Live, and other Mi apps with Chinese language are useless, I didn't use those app - Get Android N update was nice, but I also dislike to reinstall Google apps things, even I followed the instructions on en.miui.com forum, Gmail was having problem with Google Play services

  • You may not recive messages on viber r when screen is locked but you need to lock the viber app and thats it, very decent phone for the price but when you buy it you must check if it has official rom, my scoree 71k on antutu benchmark ( galaxy s6 scores 81k) battery gets around 4 hours of screen time, no lags no heating, the camera is average in night and excellent in day light... Can't get better phone for the price, if this phone was named samsung it will cost around 400 eur new for sure

  • Hi. i want to buy this phone. tell me bads and goods. i watched some videos and they sad this phone doesnt recieve messages when ts locked. u have to unlock it to see if u missed something. is it true or its false. tell me ur opinions pls.

  • /*Which screen is better, xiaomi mi4c or htc one m8? Xiaomi mi4c*/ Only with Sharp panel inside (seek for "rsp61322" in log by dump) . With AUO panel(seek for "nt35596" in log) contrast ratio drop for 4 times... This is checked with the calibrator. Xiaomi install Sharp or AUO panel with same price, but with a different cost for components. It's is Xiaomi, guys...

  • I had tried Android N on Mi 4c. Nothing change, only the Android version changed. The problem appears on Google apps, like pop up Google Play service is stopped, google.com.apps... I also did reinstall Google apps and follow the steps that I read on en.miui.com forum. Play Store worked well, Google account appeared in contact, but when I opened Gmail, it said Gmail is having problem with Google Play service. Tired with this, I conclude Xiaomi with Chinese rom available only is not good to be bought for global users. Better choose global rom preinstalled Xiaomi or other brand.

  • Xiaomi mi4c

  • Update manual. The step is available in en.miui.com choose download then choose the model of the phone.

  • Hello guys! I need help ! I bought this phone and i have a problem . The phone is random restart automatically. My current version MIUI 7.5 android 5.1.1 ... and I cant update my android . why ?

  • Hello guys! I need help ! I bought this phone and i have a problem . The phone is random restart automatically. My current version MIUI 7.5 android 5.1.1 ... and I cant update my android . why ?

  • Which screen is better, xiaomi mi4c or htc one m8 ?

  • I can't make a call. Can u help me how to solve it? thank you

  • For display and performance with low budget, Mi 4c is good, but be neutral, I would say some things that I dislike on Mi 4c: 1. If you factory reset the phone, Googla apps thing will disappear too, so you need reinstall them again, Play Store, Google framework services, Google Play Services. This step sometimes makes me frustated 2. Mi 4c is available only for Chinese rom. Xiaomi is stubborn on their devices, if the device is intended for Chinese market only, it will never has global firmware. Their way could make me to change my smartphone with other brand that has global firmware with Google apps preinstalled

  • I notice my Mi 4c heats when playing YouTube, but I think heavy games would also do the same.

  • when they heat? does heat when i will use fb, instaghram etc. ? or when play some games?

  • but it's good looking phone with sd 808.. :/ i see some solves on xda, some configs, did you try it? sorry for english :)

  • Hi.. i'm using mi 4c 2 gb for 6 months now. Aside from the annoying heat issues everything cool. It's really thin n light, but i suggest buy the 3gb version. The 2gb has only 12 (4 for int. prgram) for u'r data n it really suck..

  • search thermal throttling issue and you'll know about xiaomi mi 4c... though the current one I have is 2Gb ram version. :)

  • please can some of you who have this phone more then month tell me is it good phone or its better to save monney and buy something else? P.S. I dont need good camera, just fast phone and good display..

  • Try this:

  • Mi 4c several days ago received new software update OTA, MIUI V8.2.1.0 (374 MB) Nightly. It was Lollipop, no sign of Nougat. Should wait more time.

  • All Mi 4c devices are China rom based. We, users, need to install Google account, Google framework services, Google Services and Play Store in order the phone work will Google apps. First I use Mi 4c after upgraded to MIUI V8 also experienced problem with Google things, Play Store error for example and this make me headache because should think how to fix this problem. I did trial error installing Google apps, and related things with the Google account.

  • Reinstall software, download it from en.miui.com, download stable rom.

  • hi guys, i need some advice.. whenever my Mi 4c connects on Internet there are so many Advertisment popping out.. i tried turning off the data consumption of some of my apps but the annoying advertisments still pops out.. does anyone expirienced this problem? and what should i do to turn those advertisments off Thanks in advance :)

  • This phone very heated even the basic operation

  • after i took back my phone from a local phone service, the problem is that i can't download some social media apps on play store, there's a message on my phone screen told me that my phone version isn't compatible with "this" apps, and before that.. my phone is in ROM China. can someone tell me how to solve the problem?

  • I couldn't remember, I just did trial error, search in Google, downloaded one by one and tested them. I also found Chinese apps, but I tried other webs again.

  • Yes, I did. I chose recovery method to update Mi 4c.

  • hi, can you tell where you download the google apk and the steps on how to install? i got chinese version here and it's annoying.. thanks

  • did you choose " Reboot to Recovery Mode" ???

  • If your smartphone settings doesn't receive new update, go to en.miui.com and find Mi 4c.

  • I was the same too when I tried update system. So, I chose recovery method for update, it didn't need file explorer.

  • I did trial and error in Google search. Try this If that doesn't work, search in Google.

  • hi, can you tell where you download the google apk and the steps on how to install? i got chinese version here and it's annoying.. thanks

  • hi, how to install google products on Chinese version?

  • Hi mate.. i tried to update my Mi 4c however upon trying to manualy update MIUI an annoying error always appears " Install File Explorer First " do you know where Exactly can i down load that File Explorer?? btw got this phone on global firmware is it possible that the provided accidentaly uninstalled File Explorer?? Thanks Mate..

  • need some hand here.. my Mi 4c heats a lot dont know what to do with it.. but i love this phone though.. heating issue is the only problem i expirieced.. would love to read some advise.. thanks..

  • How to update to latest version?

  • IT'S UPGRADEABLE TO THE ANDROID NOUGAT! IT'S OFFICIAL! You can check it here It's still Beta though, and if you wanna be the tester, apply! They'll release it into stable soon!

  • yep , tested with open camera . 4k video works flawles with 30 fps and high 20 mb bitrate

  • I forgot: camera of mi4c is average.

  • Mi4c is still probably the best budget phone in the world. It has fast cpu (and overall is really fast), nice 5" display with contrast and color saturation control, fine 3000mAh battery, it looks cool (much better than on images), it is ergonomic, lightweight but sturdy and also sound in earphones is very strong. Plus USB type-c and 13MPx camera. All in all, well built phone for just 100-150 USD. Cons are: charging is not really fast (you'll need better charger), display has some protection but it is not enough, has no SD card slot (for me it isn't bad but for many it probably is), comes without headphones. Overheating? I didn't noticed yet.

  • Mi4c better performing, cool, nice camera with full manual mode support using Bacon Camera from play store

  • To Support, I have just had delivered a new Xiaomi Mi4C dual sim phone. Is there a manual that covers the dual sim, I have downloaded 2 that do not mention it. Thank you for your time

  • mi 4c or redmi pro I need your review bros -low camera performance -Heating issue ! -charging time thanks guys

  • en.miui.com Choose download and type of phone.

  • This is the best phonr for its price range. Got this for only 113$ USD in my country amd super satisfied. Good GPS, decent display and camera, also good battery backup, 4G LTE supported and solid body. Put a tempered glass and spigen armor then youre ready to rock!

  • Yepp, its only strach ressistant. But not as strong as gorilla glass or dragontail. So using a tempered glass will be the best option to protect your screen

  • Well yes. Because mi4c and mi4i has exactly same display. So any tempered glass will be fit for both.

  • What link Sir?? Would appreciate it if you could share it.

  • Hi sir,any difficulities to install google software such as play store? Thank you

  • good news . mi4c will got nougat update

  • Reliable or not I am not sure, I juts copy paste the comment. I bought Zenblade temper glass, it was said for MI 4i but when I applied it to my Mi 4c, it fit.

  • Actually sir, there is an update and it' s on miui 8.1.2.0 but in chinese version because mi4c is intended to be sold at china only so there is no global firmware.. But it's ok, i updated mine and chose the english language. The heating issues from my tampered ROm is gone.

  • Just buy tempered glass at lazada.. It's nice, actually I bought 3 of it already

  • no it's grey :)

  • is your mi4c 32gb is white?

  • Just bought this phone at $150 for 32GB version. This is the best phone at this price ! No heating issue,good camera and good battery life

  • Thanks Bro, i also bought my Mi 4c on lazada at 5,000PHP and those tempred glass on lazada are kinda expensive haha but i think it's worth it..

  • just clink this link to buy a tempered glass for you MI 4c or MI 4i because they have thesame build.

  • is this a reliable source??? im from Philippines and i can't find a Tempred Glass protection that will fit on my Mi 4c.. just want my screen to be safe from scratches..

  • nice

  • Where do I check which countries this is available in?

  • Read here: Someone said that Mi 4c uses Concore glass. It is manufactured by Corning Glass.

  • Hi can some one confirm what is the type of screen protection used on Mi 4c?? Thanks..

  • You're welcome.

  • Thanx a lot bro

  • The other disadvantages of Mi 4c I found after use it for a month: 1. GPS location frequently need time to work properly (sometimes won't work for a while, need think from user to handle it fist in oder to be work). I guess this is because the Chinese rom (firmware) 2. If edge control back is activated, when typing using Google Keyboard, it sometimes the virtual keyboard will close by itself. The edge control back itself is too sensitive.

  • Xiaomi Mi 4c is Lollipop out of the box, if you want an update then if its available on your country then you can. 90/10 chances if your from the far west.

  • Use this link to download the firmware, choose global. You can also see the method from the website there.

  • Actually sir. I haven't done that, and even if I want to I can't coz the updater app says there is no available update to download. Anyways is there anyway I could do that update? I'm from the Philippines by the way. Probably one of the reason why there is no update available in my country.

  • It is release in nearly end of year 2015 and Xiaomi prefer sMIUI than Android OS version, so it is a common.

  • Why new mobile phone have old Android OS v5.1.1 ? Why not new OS 7.0 ?!

  • Mine hardly overheats. Must be some apps causing yours to over heat.

  • So far I am OK with overheat, no issue when it is said that 'overheat'.

  • is this phone support 2160p 30fps and 1080p 60fps?

  • My Mi 4 c is 10.19 GB total of internal memory.

  • what exactly the total internal memory of 16gig variant??

  • Don't buy this device even it's cheap af, this crap overheats everytime I use it (no, I don't use it for gaming, only for surfing internet).

  • Have you try update the firmware to MIUI 8 stable? Now it si MIUI 8 v8.1.10.

  • mine also overheat like crazy coc + wifi + low brightness in just 3-5mins temperature reaches 40-45°C..i dont think it is normal..i have already flashed 4ROMS and all of it overheats.. which i think the problem is not on the ROM but the phone.. :) ROMS i have tried: 1. ROM from out of the box (they call it tampered because it says it is global but mi4c doesnt have global rom) 2. China Stable 3. China Developer 4. MIUI EU ( which i think can be called as GLOBAL because this has no chinese apps)

  • bought this phone online about 4days ago. I'm having problems with lags and freezing I don't know probably because of the pre-installed bloatwares. also the photo editor seems to be working. after you click on a photo and choose to edit it the screen flashes and goes back to the gallery instead of taking you to the editing mode. Anyone around who has the same problem or can help??

  • In the review of Mi 4c, GSMArena wrote that Gmail is not preinstalled. So this can be conclude that Mi 4c doesn't has global firmware.

  • I flashed it to MIUI 8 v.8.0.4 than updated again to v.8.0.5, the firmware was from MIUI website, choose stable version. The moderator of MIUI forum had told me that Mi 4c is released for not global market, so the firmware available was only for Chinese. But I am OK now. I did factory reset, all Google things gone, and I reinstall Google Installer apk and one by one install Google framework services, Google account manager, Google Play Store, Google services.

  • I think you should flash your miui rom to global version, because I think you are using the chinese version of miui

  • I thing that was normal. My Mi 4c sometimes hot too.

  • Yes MIUI 8 v 8.0.4 give better looking and fresh UI but has problem on Google. Google Play Store error (authentification is required. You need to sign in to Google account), WhatsApp didn't show contact name, contacs no show Google account contacts. Gmail stuck syncing. I did clear data on Google Play Store, reinstall, remove Google account, no help. So, I did factory reset. In fact, Play Store is gone, Gmail is gone. I should reinstall Google Installer v2 apk, install them again one by one, such as Google framework services, Play Store, Google services, Google account manager. Yes, after struggling to get rid of these things, finally my phone works fine again with Google account. I conclude that, this Xiaomi Mi 4c is good for the spec and low price in Indonesia region but also makes trouble for users too, because they could eliminate Google accounts and Play Store, so consumers should struggle themselves to reinstall them again, try more efforts to make their phone connected to Google things again.

  • Hey guys, I just bought mi4c, so far so good I think. But there is one problem bugging me, the overheating. Does all mi4c have the same problem? Or just my device? If so how can I fix it?

  • Original unit from the official local dealer. Brand new. Its all about using it, not babying it. I have many email and social media accounts and contacts. You can't judge a phone with light usage. I experience extreme LAG all day!

  • You are wrong. You must have a defective unit, I'm using mi4c and is smooth as a baby's bottom. And fast too!

  • I bought this phone. Eu ron. Laggy as hell. Android has never been, and will never be a good OS. Everything in this phone is laggy. Everything! Switching back to WP or IOS.

  • if I update my mi 4c then I hv 3 option. 2 chain's language 1 English.my phone is customs ROM.

  • Hi, How many days are you able to get if you use it lightly, without restraining yourself, of course (meaning just browsing, texting, a few phone calls, mostly on wi-fi, sometimes on 3g/4g data)? Regards

  • It is the best phone in terms of specs and price! I installed MIUI 8 from Xiaomi.eu and now i have european languages and Google Play. I love this phone! Everything is super fast and the camera is very high quality! Battery is ok, with 4-5 hours screen on time.

  • The same experience: 1. I found almost immediately a report of Clean Master antivirus app that Xiaomi Mi4c 3GB/32GB came with 2 Android viruses pre-installed - Android.Troj.ya_ExpenPush.ac (Compromised device can be remotely controlled by hackers) and Android.MALWARE.at_Coudw.b (may leak private information and charge fees on your account). Something more - there are around 10 pre-installed apps - several games and unnecessary tools, which are coming pre-installed and can not be uninstalled, only disabled. 2. The OS was unofficial version MIUI 87.0.4.0(LXKCNCI) stable, instead the official V7.0.15.0.LXKCNCI. The OS version number was higher - that means it would never get official software update. 3. The 3GB RAM was constantly used above 70%, often above 85% even without any running app. Even after a clean install of official Chinese MIUI ROM the RAM is used above 50%. The System Monitor app was listing several hundred system processes including for example 72 IRQ... proceses, 55 kworker... processes, 28 therm_core:noti processes, etc. No such system processes are visible on a Nexus tablet with the same Android v.5.1.1, however only one "Android System" process. That is a serious security warning too.

  • Try version 8.0 from Xiaomi.eu, it improved the notification area and has multiple language options.

  • Love this phone, coming from a Samsung galaxy alpha. Yes, you will probably have to switch Roms, but I've run mine with both Cm 13.1 and Xiaomi.eu English version of Miui (my favorite) and love it. Used TWRP loaded with fastboot from TS Cm 13.1 and once done I've switched between Miui and Cm.

  • Installed (TS)team superluminal CM13.1 marshmallow 6.0.1, got rid of that stupid miui. Phone works amazing, blazing fast, very good battery life, no bugs yet discovered. i recommend to flash the cm 13.1 rom from TS, you won't regret it. I have the Mi 4c with 2gb RAM NOT the 3GB version but the ROM still works as intended.

  • this phone not fast charging ... i tried from 0-100% in 2,5 hours ... just like meizu m2 note but m2 note has long batrey life ...

  • I used this guide

  • The phone is good but the speaker is awfully slow. Is it only with my Mi4c or anybody else have the same issue with this phone.

  • please tell me how did you unlock the bootloader??

  • My Mi4c 3GB/32GB came with a suspicious unofficial rom 77.something which drained the battery far too quickly when mobile data was on (spyware?). Changing to the official miui v7.something solved the problem. Now I'm on Team Superluminal (Finnish origin) Cyanogenmod 13.1 Marshmallow, which works like a dream. For hardware, be careful when inserting SIM cards, especially with adapters, otherwise the dual SIM reader may get broken!

  • You can zoom in/out with pinched the screen by your two fingers

  • Awesome smartphone. Awesome price. no complaints

  • Excellent phone with a very good camera. HDR quality and the 13 MP of the photographs is astounding and the phone is very well balanced in user friendliness and functionality. Best buy considering price/quality! The only feature I can not find is the zoom function. Is there anyone who can help me out, or is there no zoom function on his device? Thank you very much!

  • No, it is easily disabled.

  • 1.8 free ram for the 3 gb ram. it's so fastt

  • Will the tap edge feature will disturb me while playing games on my phone?

  • yes, the Chinese Rom does support English language in options along other Asian ones.

  • try downloading Google's Keyboard.

  • Recently purchased the MI4C. So far good phone. Got several annoying "features" that I can't seem to fix: - Notification line is very narrow, and barely readable. Online forums suggest changing a theme. I like the phone's default. Isn't there another solution? Please assist. - Red underlines while typing. When a foreign language (e.g. Hebrew), the phone detects all of the words as typos. Can't find a way to turn off the spell check. Thanks for the help.

  • I live in Thailand and i can use on 3g WCDMA 850 900 2100 perfectly.

  • Yes you are right

  • Yes, i want to buy one in Chine, it was possible to change it to english. But the pre installed aps where still in Chinese. AND, you will have a problem with 3G in Europe as the chinese ones are only CDMA and nor WCDMA.. So no 3G in Europe with the chinese one. Now i buy mine in Kirgistan which is cheaper than in china and suport WCDMA...

  • Can i got english language in a chinese rom?

  • any bloatware or any problem??

  • please inform me relising date of india

  • so if got 16 gigs version can i flash the 32 roms

  • Nice information. It's nice features phone with this price but the phone has some issues like phone camera quality is not so good.

  • How long the screen on time?

  • Well maybe you have to clean up the screen,,i once have that issue with my xperia, but after i cleaned it up with wet tissue(not too wet ) the problem solved !

  • Please, don't confuse everyone with your wrong information. There is no official global ROM for this device and there will most probably never be one, so this phone ships ONLY with the original Chinese ROM. Now there are plenty unofficial localized ROMs, like the one created by MIUI.eu team, and the phones sold outside China might be flashed by the resellers using one of those ROMs or its variant just to increase the attractiveness of the device for the foreign buyers, usually adding bloatware or even malware in the process. You can check this using the Xiaomi official website: - the download page for Mi4c which was never released globally has only Chinese ROM download links, while Mi4i sold in India has both Chinese and Global ROM available

  • the phone ships with 2 variants of the miui os: there is one with an chinese version, which can have bloatware and an other one with global rom which is intended to use in countrys outside uf china. if you get the chinese version, you can still flash the global rom hope i could help u :)

  • Millet phone ecosystem MIUI, Release edge suppression , seriously affect the game experience, users do not reflect up to six months to repair

  • This phone comes with two android versions, one for China and one for other countries (Global ROM)...

  • I can't understand what is intrnal/global ROM?? I am not tech guy...i am unable to undrstand?? :/

  • I used Mi4c 3/32 for 2 month, using ROM CHINA. It's satisfied, great battery, no lag.

  • Bought 3/32 version directly from China and put CM13 on it. Everything works beautifully. No lag, great display, great camera, great battery, very light. The white version reminds me of Lumia phones. Cyanogenmod is the way to go. Just search Team Superluminal on the net. Cheers

  • Absolutely love Xiaomi Mi4c phone. Ditched a Sony M4 Aqua due to numerous problems, now I can't even sell that piece of garbage. Mi4C is fast, the battery is superb, the camera is absolutely AMAZING. I bought the 32GB version and there are no regrets. I'm not buying any other phone - tried HTC, Lenovo, Sony - but Mi4c is the best one by far.

  • how much screen on time you got

  • Right out the box, with 'seller international rom', battery was very bad. After flashing with official rom, battery is good. I read other people's reviews on battery performance using xiaomi.eu rom's are also positive. 4c hardware specs are relatively better, or at least newer than 4i, but 4c have no official global rom yet.

  • There's no 'official global' rom for 4c, not yet at least. However, there are several ways so you can have multi language in your 4c, including google services, etc. Using 'unofficial rom' from Xiomi.eu is one of them. But you have to dig a little bit more on how to use that rom and to install google services. Or you can just use that 'seller installed international rom (multi language with google services)', with the risk of malware and no (official) updates. i'm using 4c, with the latest china official rom, english, manually installed google services.

  • Can you make Video on Smule karaoke apps with this phone ?? Please answer me whoever use this phone, I really want to know. And I really appreciated. Thanks.

  • tell me about battery bro. can handle 1x charge for one day ? how much Screen on time you get with active internet and sim card. mi4c vs mi4i how be best ?

  • hi KA, just wondering, you already had the mi4? can you share the store where you buy the device?

  • You can use the camera in 4k with other apks, Google Camera, Cinema FV5..

  • Exactly, you can download roms multilanguage in Xiaomi.eu. Im from Argentina and I have in Spanish.

  • Yes,

  • To Sir x , sorry you are absolutely wrong, yes global rom for mi4c, and multilanguage...i use this!!!

  • To danny, sory youre absolutely wrong, no global rom for mi4c, hohoho

  • You sir are so very wrong... There ARE global roms for these mobiles.

  • this phone is only for china there is no global rom . no language support. if you use just English , no problem

  • 26gb free & 90mins

  • 1) Good phone except for the quality of the glass. It can crack/ break even under the slightest pressure/ impact. 2)Not unless you get another dark color for the cover but if its white, at some point, the with back cover turns yellowish due to normal heating of the phone while in use. Basically, a good phone in terms of software but has some very poor exterior hardware features.

  • after several month using mi4c is there any problem when using this phone ??

  • dont have

  • yes. u also can set backlight timeout

  • Do the navigational buttons have backlight?

  • Hi friends,in mi 4c how much free storage available in 32gb version ?what about the fast charging gsmarena mentions 40% in 60mins ,if it takes that much time it's a fast charging?

  • There's android 6 marsmallow ROM available for this phone. You can get it from teamsuperluminal.org No privacy issues, clean AOSP based ROM and really fast and stable. I never use miui again!

  • Mine had everything on it (google play store and stuff like that) it had no chinese apps and perfect translation. Only if you can help me i have a problem that when i tap llike when im writing it just taps somewhere on the screen randomly

  • I don't understand how do you guys have any problem with this phone. i boughtt it in Croatia and it doesn't have any problems like chinese apps or something, google play store was automaiclly installed. ONLY problem that happends is called ghost tap or something like that, basicly when i tap it sometimes just taps randomly on the screen.b

  • I've got the Mi4C. Been using it for several months now. It's very good and I've had no problems. No I don't know any Chinese. The first thing you should do is to install the official global rom from the the MIUI forum. Mine came with a custom ROM as it was from a third party seller and it was terrible! But after installing the official rom (just takes a few minutes) everything was good. Oh one more thing, Google Play does not come pre installed so you have to install it yourself. Again, not a problem. Just download the apk and install. That's all. You will still be left with a few Chinese apps but it doesn't get int he way. The phone is good. No hangs and lags experienced till now. Very smooth. No over heating issues. Can handle any game. One problem I couldn't solve was that by default the app store will be the MIUI app store. So when you click on a link to an app it opens the MIUI app store and most of the time the app will not be present there. I haven't yet found a solution make the Google Play store the default one. On the whole I'm very satisfied with this phone. If you want a phone to use right out of the box, don't go for this one because you will have to make some initial tweaks.

  • 1. My first impression - very light and comfortable in hand. 2. The initial installation was flawless - just a copy of your Google Android profile from previous mobile phone and adding your favorite Android apps. There was Google Play already installed. The Chinese MiStore is almost impossible to use since every app there is in Chinese language. You may still download several jpeg background themes though. The audio alarms choices are nice however in Chinese language too. The navigation sensor is fast and sensitive and found almost immediately 18 GPS+GLONASS+Beidou satelites, 22-23 satelites were available outside. 3. However, I found almost immediately a report of Clean Master antivirus app that Xiaomi Mi4c came with 2 Android viruses pre-installed - Android.Troj.ya_ExpenPush.ac (Compromised device can be remotely controlled by hackers) and Android.MALWARE.at_Coudw.b (may leak private information and charge fees on your account). Something more - there are around 10 pre-installed apps - several games and unnecessary tools, which are coming pre-installed and can not be uninstalled, only disabled. No reputable company would sell mobile phones with dangerous Android viruses pre-installed. 4. The 3GB RAM was constantly used above 70%, often above 85% even without any running app. Even after a clean install of the official Chinese MIUI ROM the 3GB RAM is still used above 50%. The System Monitor app is listing several hundred system processes including for example 72 IRQ... proceses, 55 kworker... processes, 28 therm_core:noti processes, etc. No such system processes are visible on a Nexus tablet with the same Android v.5.1.1, however only one "Android System" process. That is a serious security warning too. 5. According to many sources (just Google "Xiaomi security warnings", "F-Secure Xiaomi") Xiaomi phones send regularly user private data to servers in China. That is indeed a violation of European Privacy laws and such phones should not be distributed in Europe. 6. The AnTuTu performance was initially 42557, similar to LG G3 (Lollipop). After clean install of official Chinese MIUI ROM the AnTuTu performance went to 53119 which is very good. The HD video performance is good however the battery discharge is very fast. 7. The Miui launcher has no Android Apps tab and all the Apps are installed and placed directly on the front pages. You may indeed place them in folders or use different Android Launcher. Still a clean standard Android launcher would be the best. 8. The quick charge is fast. Unfortunately it came with American power adapter and unstable very cheap adjustable European socket. 9. The micro USB-C socket is not advantage, however a disadvantage since it is not compatible with other standard micro USB cables. 10. After considering the danger to privacy caused by unknown MIUI OS running hundreds unknown system processes and the violation of European Privacy laws I returned the telephone to China.

  • ?? From the beginning, this phone was shipped only for the Chinese market, not for international markets. I guess if you wanna buy such domestic devices to use overseas, you need to research first. I checked the cellular bands, availability of custom ROMs and other issues like locked bootloader by flashing recent dev ROMs to use it in Japan. If you're not happy, you should use phones sold for international markets. At least, Xiaomi is not one of those companies yet.

  • Thanks for your reply.

  • thank you :) well, I am not considering the 4G for now (as it's not supported in Egypt yet). As an overall from the reviews I have seen, the performance of Mi 4c is a little bit better than Mi 4 .. for about $50 dollars more .. in addition to the design quality and battery life (a little better on Mi4 ) .. so over all, I think Mi 4 matches my needs more than Mi4c .. for the time being .. ;)

  • I am sure you will happy with it and being the flagship having full metal body and premium feel ovr the Mi4c though there are a few things that may be un upgrade with Mi4c in the 4G bands and other tweaks I would rather have Mi4 out of the two.

  • thank you for your reply .. i already purchased an Mi4 from Aliexpress, waiting for delivery by next Thursaday or so, isA .. :)

  • Just read on MIUI EN forum that best to use screen protector no real concensus as to the screen being gorilla glass and if it is one person stated it scratched easily. Remember this is not a flagship like the MI4 and priced accordingly.

  • You should not have problem installing updated stable roms via OTA or downloading from forum. The current problem seems be with changing to developer rom or flashing third party recoveries and roms.

  • I bought an MI3 a couple of years ago when they were less international friendly and have not had issues that couldn't be overcome, had help from high up administrators as well. Also I didn't need to flash anything to get the google apps just installed the installer and apps from the MI market same as you would install from play store. There are a few posts on the MIUI EN forum that explain how to install many of the google apps using the google installer found on their MI market. As for under priced phones lower price = large turnover = huge profit (1950s U.S marketing the birth of consumerism sell cheap will buy upgrade next year).

  • Guys, i recommend you guys not to buy Mi4C if you are from out of China, there is no problem with mi4c hardware and specs, the only annoying problem comes with the Miui itself, And when you checked with the official website it states that Mi4C is solely for sale in China only, meaning they don't have any reason to make an international compatible version of Miui. The Mi4c itself is meant to be 'Mi 4 C(Chna)' and not because it supports usb Type-C. I bought it 3 weeks ago, the phone comes with Miui china version, so there is no google apps and google appstore, it does comes with 'Miui appstore', music and video apps that only support in chinese language and app versions that is China-compatible apps only. So i tried to flash Miui dev version so i can flash root and install gapps as my default market app. But then after flashed to dev version, they looked the bootloader and you have to apply to unlock, and the application takes forever, up to this moment still, by bootloader unlock application is still not receiving any confirmation yet. My opinion is that Xiaomi is selling under-priced phones, but they force you to use their Chinese apps to gain revenue from those apps. And i wonder if our data is safe since all data are synced to xiaomi server and i think the browser itself gets online by routing to their server as well. I think they might be violating our privacy as well if all data enroute through their server. And this is not international user friendly. My advice : if you still wants to buy Mi4C, head to Miui forum now go to Mi4C subforums and check those comments of all Mi4c buyers. If you have already bought it, well then good luck!

  • Hi i m comparring b/w mi 4i , mi 4c and redmi note 2 in terms of performance( like lag,bug problem etc ) please someone tell me which will be better.,....

  • using it in Argentina. enough 3gb ram, enough 32 gb space, enough speed, enough battery, happy with it. for now smiui roms seems to be the best, they are clean and multilanguage and updates every week, and very important: don't lock the bootloader!

  • xiaomi mi4c are any problem ........plz ans ?????

  • guys .. am comparing between Mi4 or Mi 4c .. which is better, and why .. ? thanks ..

  • Since xiaomi is locking the bootloaders on mi4c from this year, will I still be able to install miui stable rom?

  • teamsuperluminal CM13 is best ROM for this phone!

  • I get like 5.5hrs SoT which is almost identical to what my G2 got on a fresh battery.

  • I want to know the real problem of this phone. Is there any battery problem ?

  • I can confirm that the main camera actually shoots 4K video with the latest MIUI v7 updates.

  • I was thinking of this phone, as the spiritual continuation of LG G2. But i have a major concern and thats its battery endurance. It has a terrible rating in gsmarena tests, can anyone of its owners confirm that it has 35% less battery than G2? Such rating is shared with the dreadfull G3, which really dissapointed me because ofvits battery performance...

  • Have you cut a mini SIM or do you have a micro SIM? Some micro SIM from a mini SIM does not work...don't know why. (not only with this phone).

  • just bought a xiami mi4c less than a week but it kept saying "no sim card' although i've already inserted it. anyone have this problem and how to solve it?

  • just bought a xiaomi mi4c less than a week but the dual sim does not work properly.. it kept saying that they are 'no sim card inserted'.. did anyone had this problem too?

  • i am comparing between Mi 4, Mi 4i, and Mi 4c .. i am sensing that 4c is the best of them .. considering: performance, price, weight, and battery .. followed by Mi 4 as second best .. I have a concern though regarding the screen, as it's not Corning gorilla glass (in case of Mi 4 and 4c) .. so does it scratch or break easily .. ? :( Please let me know what you think and why .. am still reading through reviews and videos online to decide .. :)

  • Mi4i and mi4 have in malaysia

  • Thanks a lot !!!! Wat abt the battery backup...?? Does this support OTG ??? Thanks in Advance!!!

  • Around 12.5 for the 16 GB and 28.5 for the 32 GB version.

  • Hi Mi4c users... someone pls tell the user available memory in 32GB variant.. And how long can this device hold its power after doing a full charge??? I'm a heavy user....

  • I install google camera, and turn out mi4c supports recording in 4K res. I use global chinese rom & e 32gb internal memory.

  • Hi there, I am having a problem when it comes to using the dual sim feature. I have one sim which is Vodafone contract and is the sim I use for internet browsing, calls and texts. Then I have my second sim which is Cosmote which I use for receiving texts and calls and making few calls (internet browsing only if Vodafone is over the limit). In my settings I have the internet default sim set to my Vodafone sim and call settings is either (choose at the time of the call). Often enough one of the sims does not get any service connection at all and does not receive texts/calls and does not make calls. The problem appears usually to be fixed when I change to 2G (instead of 3G or 4G), even when i'm on WiFi. I've tried rebooting with different settings, puting new ROM, disabling and re-enabling the sims one at a time, changing the sim positions but nothing is working. I have Googled as much as possible but can't find any solutions. Does anyone have any suggestions or know how to fix this? Note that I leave in Greece. Thank you in advance!

  • It says clearly: Quad-core 1.44 GHz Cortex-A53 & dual-core 1.82 GHz Cortex-A57. 4+2=6. 1.44 is the clock speed of the quartet and 1.82 the c.s. of the powerful A57.

  • Maybe someone can help me, my doubts are : Regarding the CPU, some websites say it have a Hexa core inside, others including gsm arena, say it have a Quad core, so, which one has it ??? Also regarding the CPU, some websites say is 1.7GHz, others including gsm arena, say it it is 1.44GHz, again, which one it is ??? Any answers ?? Thx.

  • I believe Snapdragon 808 quite easily outperforms Helio-X10.

  • Why dont xiaomi put in more powerful mediatek helio x10 and sell it cheaper? I defitely will buy it if same price with the redmi note3. Redmi note2/3 is too big for my liking. Hopefully the redmi3 will use the helio x10 and please dont make it bigger than 5".

  • replace the thermal config with the one from other sd808 device, I take one from nexus 5x and it works much much better.

  • I just purchased my mi 4c and I can say the matte black version is the coolest thing I ever see.. Bloatware can uninstall it by rooting your device kingroot . and unroot it . if you still want take the warranty

  • Got this phone for a couple of days and i'm pretty happy with it. Very responsive, no lag, camera is good. The only thing I've noticed is a bit of heat. I'm a Clash of clans player, and when i go in the game i notice that the phone starts heating a bit. Also, how can I uninstall all the crap that comes with the phone, some apps that are just good for nothing?

  • this phone only distributed in china

  • No

  • It won't be launched in India. Mi4i was for India (i=India) this is Mi4c (c=China).

  • Should i consider to change my lg g3 with that mi4c?and why

  • dude, i m 2 waiting 4 dis n redmh note 3

  • Guys, Can anyone tell when this phone will be lunched in India. ?

  • lower your brightness to middle click off your gps and data any apps you dont use battery will drain slow save battery power for sure. any problem with your phone reset factory restore then see phone work better.

  • stop battery from draining fast you have to download the best battery saver from google store then click off your gps your data then click on battery saver your phone battery drain real slow .

  • listen well...any problem with this phone just hold power button and volume rocker button same time then screen show factory restore press that then every thing restore phone work better.

  • i bought this phone a week ago and i am satisfied with this phone. the performance is the same as iphone. it is smooth and no lag. no heating problem.

  • give it back

  • Go smiui and download there rom for free and ur phone should be great with the battery.....

  • Hi everyone, i just bought this phone few days ago and it's awesome,my phone is 3gb ram version and i get on antutu 60k+. I just have one question,i am using miui 7 the chinese version and the battery drains too fast,can any fellow user help me?

  • It's that true ? I want to buy this phone, but it's difficult coz i compare with redmi note 2, so now i'm confused to choose what i want to buy.

  • Hi! I saw on a Pocket Now review video of this phone, in a lot of cases, when the mi 4c is brought from a 3rd party seller it has LOTS of bloatware installed which not only drains your battery but can also be malware. You can apparently go on the Xiaomi website and install a clean ROM, which according to the video is quite straight forward and doesn't require rooting. I am considering getting this phone myself and will certainly carry out this if I do. Also uninstall as much preinstalled apps as possible.

  • The the front camera become blurred only during evening time on skpe video call..

  • The front camera become blurred when using on skype video call. Please fix it...

  • I bought it last about 1week.While i'm using it, it hammed and neither power off nor restart! It was last about 2hrs up to now! How can I fix it?? I tried to remove cover but can't ! Plz advise me !

  • it is a better phone i know i fix smartphones try my ideal you will see different any more problem let me know. :)

  • to keep from heating go to your setting click brightness move to middle then go to color contrast switch to cool there you will see a different to your mi4c heating problem also download battery saver from google store and click off gps and data your phone will save battery drain from my trick! YOR BATTERY WILL DRAIN SLOW!

  • You can get playstore by google installer. type it at app store and you can download all google app.

  • Hi Friend, I am not the Xiaomi Mi4c user. But I search alot in website and forums. Just for your information, you mentioned that The phone has heatsup so fast and some crapwares are also included. This is because some retailer unit has many malwares with in it. Currently the official global rom for Mi4C is out and I suggest you to flash the new rom and you will defenitely feel the deference. Sorry for bad english.

  • Ignore comments stating overheat and lag, these people didn't flash a clean ROM and are using the reseller ROM full of crapware.

  • no "USB host" in specification?

  • I guess MI 4c is better. Mi Note 3 is cheaper than Mi 4c and it does not have much more resistance than Mi 4c.

  • xiaomi 4c is the better phone, but redmi note 3 gives better value for money because its cheaper.

  • yes it heat so fast, even in standby mode battery is drowning fast! the bottom.line is im disapointed buy buying this device

  • Which is better? Mi4C or RedMi Note 3? I know the specs but I want to know user experiences. I can buy them at the same price (3 GB RAM/32 GB)

  • Guys I need your help.. Which one is better Redmi note 3 or Mi4C thanks

  • I bought it. It has no fm radio.

  • Yes it is yellowish.

  • Hi all, is it just me or mi 4c flash is yellowish colour? Its more like warm daylight bulb instead oh cool white light bulb like other samsung phone.

  • Real user experience: After just a week of carrying around in your pocket the edges start to wear out and starts to give a look of years of wear and tear. Just because if has 808 processor don't think it's blazing fast. It still lags. It's only amazing on paper. Phone heats up quite fast. A lot of unwanted apps, but to be fair this was just meant for China. Display is good, but looking at it after just having a look at an amoled, it will look dull. 2 GB ram, but more than half is taken up by the system. The volume and power buttons are kind of flimsy. Now for the good part: Camera if Good Some software features are really good like Side tap feature which is really useful Double tap to wake. When phone is lying down (not in your hand) the screen doesn't seem to respond easily. But once you pick it up then it responds as normal. If this a built in feature? Don't know if it's good or bad. I guess it could go both ways. Battery is decent enough. Thumbs up for fast charge. Speaker sound good. You can also get excellent sound from headphone once you set up the equaliser. But it wasn't as good as my old Sony Xperia Arc. Has voice call recorder function. Very useful. Type C usb could be good and bad. Good coz it's the latest and your future proof in that department. But you don't get a proper C cable in the box. Bad because you have to carry your cable around with you as your friends usb cable is not going to work for you.

  • LG G3 has snapdragon 801AC processor which is older than Xiaomi mi4C snaprdragon 808. The question is not what is better, its what important to you most? Waranty or better processing power.

  • It has concord corning glass which is better than gorilla corning glass.

  • No protection screen?

  • It doesn´t have FM radio, even though it is advertised like that. I´m very disappointed.

  • Xiaomi mi4c or lg g3? I prefer the first but the latter has proper warranty and costs the same money.

  • It has an online radio app which could make people think it has FM. The Mi4c does NOT have FM radio.

  • Xiaomi Mi4c is much better

  • definitely, Xiaomi, man. It's cheaper, powerful (especially 3Gb RAM version), with more vivid screen (and higher density too), also Mi4c is smaller on wide side.

  • Will MI4C get Marshmellow update?

  • I have mixed experience compared to my Redmi Note. The tested game is the one from superrobot.aseugame.com. In most parts, it's generally a lot faster. However, nested dialogs are somehow rendered slower and that's the only part where the graphics suck, very weird. AnTuTu 3D test does show significant difference, though. I get 2-3 times fps depending on how I set my GPU clock. The default should give 2 times (30-35 fps), by setting the frequency higher I could reach 3 times (40-50 fps). Redmi Note's Mali-450 MP4 struggles at (12-18) fps.

  • Which is better Mi 4c and sony m4 aqua?Give me advice

  • Currently we have CM12.1 in alpha version but everything works superb. Find it on xda devs

  • You ahve Andoird, just CHinese version. Find English on with Google play on xiaomi.eu or smiui.com (rooted one)

  • i bought the phone, but everything is in Chinese, or english. the store is Xiaomi's and every app in Chinese.. what shall i do? need to install android?

  • tnx.. :) bt in which website will i find d rooting process? anyway... one plus x got amoled display with full hd and has a stylish dsgn... :( 1 more qstn... could i b able to use cyanogenmod or so called oxygen os or any custom rom (which has apps drawer) in mi4c after rooting?

  • Should I buy the mi 4c or zenfone 2 (4GB RAM)?

  • The Chinese version can be set to English. So its OK for english only users. But Chinese version doesnt support other languages like Russian. Plus it uses lots of apps which useless outside China. This why I installed euMIUI.

  • Mi4c is SD808 processor while oneplus x is still SD801, so Mi4C is better. You can get euMIUI from xiaomi.eu. You have to root the device, but it is done in few steps which is well described on the web. ( I done it in 3hours for the first time). The MIUI is much better than cyanogenmod (Its looks like iOS with flexibility of Android).

  • give me details about apps some person saying about this mobile chinese langauge coming

  • Is it better than one plus x overall? And how can I get sMIUI or euMIUI? Will I have to root if I want sMIUI or euMIUI? As ain't that much good in rooting :P BTW isn't oxygen OS better than MIUI?

  • Got my Mi4C for a week. Its very responcive very fast (got 56k on Antutu benchmark). The screen is good even in bright sun light. Audio quality is better than Samsung that I had. MIUI7 is beatifull (Much better than Cynogenmod). Camera is good. No heat issues. I am very happy with this phone its like Nexus 5X but half the price.

  • Hi use this I used their ROM and works like a charm.

  • Both phone speaker and loudspeaker are excelent.

  • You can use miui.eu rom which removed the Chinese applications and bloatware.

  • please tell me about the sound quality(speaker) of mi4c

  • I bought Mi4c. Its reall good for daily uses. One unpleasant thing is Chinese language app. But miui was perfect especially Browser.

  • How can i get EU MIUI or S MIUI. Pls give me the download link . Thank

  • Anyone can tell about the quality of the speaker phone? Is the sound clear and loud? Been using redmi 1s for a year now, the speaker phone so bad....almost unheard....

  • FM radio is currently not working. This is a known bug. There is no way currently to get it to work, you have to wait for updates.

  • Display is excellent as well(especially contrast), but the white balance is a bit cool. You can change the white balance to "warm" to get more accurate colours in Settings>Dislay>Colors and Contrast. As for protection, it is Concore glass, which is Gorilla glass with the digitizer and glass protection in a single layer fused to the LCD. This means the screen is resilient to scratches and drops(like normal Gorilla glass), but the tiniest of cracks renders the touch screen useless.

  • Camera is excellent, but quality degrades quickly in low light. Overheating is only a problem on the Chinese MIUI and Retail MIUI. If you use the EU MIUI or sMIUI the phone only gets moderately warm, with no overheating.

  • As it stands there are four versions of MIUI available: China MIUI,Retail MIUI, EU MIUI, and sMIUI. China MIUI comes with all the Chinese apps and counterparts for a lack of Google in their country, and has lots of crap and bad translations even if you pick "English". The standby time and performance of this ROM is bad. (This is the one GSMarena tested) Retail MIUI is the China MIUI with bloatware and crap loaded onto it by the resellers. This is the worst ROM of all, and is likely what you get if you order this phone from online stores. Get rid of this as soon as possible. EU MIUI is a branch of MIUI specifically for European markets. They removed the crappy Chinese apps that don't work outside of China and fixed the translations. This is a good option and very safe and easy to switch with official instructions from Xiaomi. It also comes pre-loaded with the Google framework and Play Store. sMIUI is based on EU MIUI but you can select extra features you want and to remove some apps ypu don't use before downloading. It comes with Google's framework and you can choose to remove MIUI's framework. This ROM has to be flashed via a custom recovery and can't be updated the same way as the other ROMs (though they can also be updated via custom recovery). If you need information on how to change ROMs, check out the Mi4c forms on Xda-developers or search for youtube videos that give you step by step instructions. If you're stuck, just message me on Xda-developers, username: Xdadevet

  • Corning is the company that manufactures Gorilla Glass (The product) You google before you talk

  • I hope they consider updating it to Marshmallow, because I didn't see this on the list of Xiaomi devices to get the Marshmallow update.

  • yes

  • The Gorilla glass is made by Corning. Both are the same Glass.

  • Corning is the company that makes Gorilla glass. The solution on the mi4c is called Concore, it means the screen is fully laminated (expensive to repair). It is also made by Corning and is not as strong as Gorilla glass gen 3 but offers similar scratch resistance.

  • Pls tale me about camera , display and heating issue. I need your valuable review and comment.

  • you didnt answer my question. I know the websites.

  • Mi4c has corning glass, which is better than gorila glass. Please google before you post...

  • Is mi 4c compatible with Indian frequencies. Can I purchase it from ali exp. Or honor buy.will it work in india.pl.tell. Thanks

  • order from

  • yes you can buy it from below sites gearbest honorbuy ali

  • I am wondering if someone can confirm with a link, that if i order mi 4c from china to india, probably by aliexpress or any such website. will it work in India? as in the 2G,3G & 4G bands are compatible with India Radio Frequencies. Also i have Heard Mi fones in china don't have a playstore but their own app store. so if i get that in India, how will i run playstore or download apps??

  • Are not they already use MIUI ? How debloat and optimize it a bit? Well im not really good at updating OS or rom

  • I don't like front black screen.Other china phone are metal body.

  • the most weakness of a touchscreen device is it's diplay and this phone has no protection that's weird

  • Yes and no. CyanogenMod runs on top of MIUI's kernel, so you'll have CyanogenMod based on top of the latest MIUI kernel (CM12.1 atm) until Xiaomi releases the kernel source code. And CyanogenMod is just as slow as MIUI on the Mi4C because of this, rather just stick to debloated MIUI ROMs.

  • It is running 64-bit Android 5.1.1 LMY47V. Both the front and back camera is a lot better than the One Plus X (but as a side note you do get plenty of noise if the scene isn't well lit). Other than that, the camera is fast, has awesome manual control (everything from focus, exposure, white balance, saturation, sharpening, contrast, slo-mo, time lapse, and more!)

  • It is smooth, but you have to use the sMIUI ROM and debloat and optimize it a bit. Battery life is okay but not as good as my G2. I can't speak for gaming performance as I haven't really played any, but it should be better than anything near its price range

  • Definitely mi4c.

  • Yes. It is 64 bit. SD 808 comes with only 64 bit.

  • They r incurring huge loss by not launching it in India...

  • which is better mi4i or mi4c

  • is it 64bit

  • Mi series wont have memory card slot. Between i was thinking to buy this phone. So i need opinion to the one already used it. Im a heavy user/gamer so i want to know how the performance? Is it smooth as butter and how long the battery last

  • Of course

  • If this unit have a SD slot, i will bought it .... :)

  • Where is the Fm Radio ?

  • you can buy it at lazada

  • where we can buy it in indonesia? could anyone tell me pls?

  • This phone has got great specs another cheap $200+ phone that has flagship specs. However, please xiaomi increase the memory size, at least, put one of the sim tray into a memory card tray, so users have the option to use as a dual sim or a memory card. 32 gb is just not enough.

  • WHY HAVE NOT slot card?????I dont know......................

  • Does this phone support both GSM & CDMA? Please anybody help me.

  • does xiaomi gets amoled display

  • Its like xiaomi mi3 where its not officially sale in Indonesia i think,, but i know where to buy it in indonesia..

  • Is it running on 32 bit operating system or 64 bit? In terms of camera and performance which one would be better? Mi4c or oneplus x?

  • Will oneplus x have marshmellow update soon?

  • xiaomi4c very good battery long time better than other Android mobile thanks mi

  • Sir, where did you purchase Mi 4c in Philippines? Am really looking forward to have this but my only worry is the limited retailers of MI and service centers' inability to repair/support overseas variants. :D

  • 4K video recording is SUPPORTED, just install google camera...

  • If it does not have FM Radio... it is not for me ... damn! not it looks like an ios copy afterall

  • Which is better in terms of value, xiaomi mi 4c or letv le one pro? Just can't decide between the two which one I should go for. Opinions much needed.

  • depends if you want design and better build quality and can live with average camera go with Honor 6 but if you want performance and a very good camera (still won't be as good as LG's or Samsung) go with mi4c.

  • someone?

  • It realy doesn't matter since you can install Cynognemod on Xiaomi mi4c. Hence, use the latest ROM possible.

  • It doesn't matter if the screen is part of the touch or not. If you brake one you cannot use the other. Usualy you will replace them both.

  • Plz help!! Want to buy this phone but have few issues 1) will indian carriers like airtel etc. work in this phone? is it unlocked? 2) can I get rid of the chinese UI by flashing the global ver of MIUI available on Xiaomi's website? 3) Will I get support from Xiaomi in India? Is the warranty global? PLEASE HELP !!

  • It has been officially confirmed that the phone DOES NOT HAVE FM RADIO.

  • which is best-honor 6 or mi 4c...plss do suggest me

  • Very good phone

  • Doesn't have FM Radio... (Europe Version)

  • xiomi never give major update... mi3 still on kitkat nd dis phone will remain on lolipop... aftr 1 yr the software will be like 2 yr behind... better go for one plus x or moto x play...

  • What about SAR ??????

  • This phone is a worth . regarding its multitasking function it is one of the best as compared to others

  • At subang DirectD

  • It has Corning Concore glass, its scratch resistant like Gorilla Glass but even I like break can make you say goodbye to touchscreens because it uses OGS (One Glass Solution) wich touch and glass are together

  • I've just bought a MI4C 32gb and satisfied with the phone's camera quality. But what's making me nervous is does it have scratch resistant coating or gorilla glass for its camera lens. As I usually put my phone in my pocket. Does anybody know it has scratch resistant lens or not? Thanks in advance!

  • 2gb ram ...12,999 & 3gb ram 14,999

  • Xiaomi Mi4C Advanced with multi language dev ROM, no overheating. Just a little bit of heat around the camera when playing intensive games (Real Racing 3 etc)

  • Well i believe the reason for this being 64bit. All snapdragon devices such as 615/808/810 which run android 5 64 bit version has the issue of high temperature Good examples are mi4i/sony m4 aqua/htc m9/z3+. Motorola and Samsung have avoided the 64 bit version of Android in some of their devices. The new moto G and moto x play /Samsung J5/J7/A8 all run the 32bit android lollipop. This is just a theory by me. Well hardware explanation given below. Snapdragon 810 also heats as it uses 20nm process. It should have been made using 14nm. snapdragon 615 heats up because it is made using 28nmlp process. Should have been made using Hpm it would have heated less. Mtk6752 doesn't heat much because it use the 28Hpm process. And also it is 8*A53 The 808 snapdragon has a 4*A53 2*57 I think mediatek didn't use the A57 high power core because of overheating. This is just a theory.

  • asus zenfone 2 deluxe

  • bought this phone yesterday.. loved all the things.. but the phone has overheating problem.. anyone else who bought this phone and experiencing the same problem? after using it for 5-6 min if i receive a call i feel that its burning my ear. im not joking.. the phone temperature rises so fast during normal navigation.. God knows if i play games on it, the phone might melt.. so much disappointed about this.. and also not everything is in english.. u will find Chinese options sometimes..which will really bother you..

  • mi4 is better than all mi device..

  • mi4c 64bit or not?

  • Excellent camera phone in this budget.........

  • through online

  • Anybody knows if this phone has barometer?

  • where can I buy this phone in South Africa

  • where can I buy this phone in South Africa, is got bigger storage and ram than most of the Samsung phones.

  • I heard it won't get Marshmallow, while Mi 4 will?! Hmmm...

  • Mi4C is slight better. Better Processor, better battery mechanism, MUI7, new features etc. Mi4i is also a good choice if budget constrain.

  • obviously Mi5C..

  • When will this phone available in malaysia..love the spec and look affordable..

  • I had the same decision to make and ordered the mi4c. I rejected the redmi note 2 because 5.5" is too big for me. Also I noticed that the quality of many of the components are better on the mi4c. For example, I heard the call speakers for both phones and the mi4c sounded slightly clearer. The same with the external speaker. Also the camera on the mi4c is better quality and when I saw them side by side I saw that contrast and black levels are better on the mi4c. It looks like most of the components on the mi4c are slightly better quality than those on the redmi note 2. This all adds up to a more satisfying experience and since I intend to live with my choice for some time the mi4c is my choice.

  • should I go for mi 4c or redmi note2, please help me

  • when come to indonesian,...

  • Great ... !

Also battery is superb! On regular use with data,fb text and call, it takes almost two days to drain. From Philippines btw..😉😀

  • Hey guys,I've watched so many videos for this phone and as for the cam,u cannot use the whole screen when taking photos but almost the half of it..is there any option so that to have an overall view of the screen??

  • Yes

  • Hay these guys are really awesome.. They make such an incredible gadjets.. Really the MI GUI was awesome. But dey kill the device by restrictions or less specifications lyk no emory card slot nd no gorilla glass.. With out these two options no use of smart phone.

  • Is that GSM supported

  • bout 250 $

  • is there video calling facilty in mi 4c,,,plz confirm it

  • is the overheating problem serious?

  • Xiaomi representative claim it is only for china and shall not come to asian market including india. I feel so sad.

  • Concore Glass is an OGS Laminated Display from Corning, the manufacturer of Gorilla Glass. Concore Glass is as hard, resistant to scratches & damage as with Gorilla Glass. Concore Glass is also known as Fit Glass because of the laminated display technology used in which Protection Glass and Touch device is integrated into one unit. They are basically the same in terms of hardness and resistance to scratches. But they are used in different applications. Concore glass is part of a display and Gorilla class is used to protect a display from damage. Concore glass combines display and protection class into one. This reduces the thickness of the display.

  • I don't think it is fake. Most Android phone work like this. If only 9GB is available, means the Android OS MIUI is occupying 6GB . Depend on implementation, some will get 11GB available storage. The max that I have ever saw is 12GB available storage. Though, getting phone with higher internal memory will solve the issue. (Get the 32GB version dude)

  • is there any custom rom for this...

  • Which one is suggested xiaomi note o xiaomi note 4 c all the characters in xiamo note 4 c better than xiamoi note except the camera which the note 4c is slightly better than not and the fame and plastic cover in 4c. about the performance which one do you recommend. 4c has 6 cores cpu but not has 4 cores cpu.

  • Is because you got fake mi4c look and read on mi how to check is face or not is 4 way to check. One is less memory mean is fake

  • Concore Glass

  • Then xiaomi should provide more internal storage or memory card slot.

  • go for j7 i am use last 1 month

  • I bought mi4c from gizchina. I'm comparing it with mi3 and mi3 is way better. The mi4c I got lags a lot and screen is not so responsive. Hopefully this is just software issues because when I tried antutu benchmark, mi4c gives higher value (46k) than that of mi3 (40k). Hopefully this helps you decide on buying this product.

  • Its worst specifucations an price without gorilla corng an memery slot... ha ha ha.. no one wil buy it.. but this price not bad its okay..an heating issues there...but 5inch pritty phone..slim fit like lamination..

  • Is mi4c coming to india? I hope it might come as diwali festival is around the corner..anybody have news about it olz tell

  • It's seems that u dont't realize that why it's only left 9GB. because the 7GB for the Android OS + MIUI apllication :)

  • Xiaomi devices have a major problem regarding internal storage. mi4i has 16 GB internal storage with no expanding option. but it shows around 9 GB available. Same problem with mi4c. I dont know whether it occurs with other xiaomi devices too. It's ridiculous. And yes, heard a lot about heating issues. I hope this problem would be fixed.

  • Mi4i

  • I think mi4c is better for you to choose

  • already reading reviews here over heating... already leaving this mobile behind .. I need 3GB or 4GB ram around $200-250

  • is it heating ?

  • Xiaomi needs to solve these 3 issues for this device. 1. heating problem 2. provide memory card slot 3. provide gorilla glass protection Keep the price as it is and there you go. A great device.

  • Coming with which glass protection ? Dragon tail or gorilla glass 3 ?

  • We hope this mobile to be released in Brazil too, since Xiaomi arrived here, there is only available the low end models. We are all expecting improved features like mid range and high end devices.

  • Yes, you can break cakes with it! :()

  • is mi4c coming to India ?? Which one to go for- mi4c/mi4i/mi4 ?? Does all these handsets have heating problem ??

  • Mi4i is the best.

  • Oh god i just bought mi4c yesterday on online. I should see your opinion before buying . I hate heat problem.

  • ey are basically the same in terms of hardness and resistance to scratches. But they are used in different applications. Concore glass is part of a display and Gorilla class is used to protect a display from damage. Concore glass combines display and protection class into one. This reduces the thickness of the display.

  • Guyz... Please suggest on Mi 4i or Samsung J7, compared to Mi 4i, it has weight, so decided to go ahead with Mi 4i. Also i come to know about Mi 4c. My usage is very less, just cam (Not Often). So please suggest Which one would be the best option to go ahead. I heard that MI 4i has heating issues, i have no issues to wait some more time for Mi 4c. However please suggest best option for me to go ahead. Regards SV

  • scratch resistant glass.......its not a gorilla glass 3 or 4

  • I asked a Xiaomi staff, they told me 4c has Corning Concore Glass.

  • Otg ??

  • Today I visited official display center of Xiaomi in Jinan, China. I check the Xiaomi mi 4c, 16 GB, 2GB RAM version. The built quality doesn't give a premium look, but it is some how looks better while holding than that of Xiaomi Note2. The phone Xiaomi mi 4c, I was checking has already a few minor scratches on it where from I am sure that this doesn't come with an gorilla class protection or any other. The glass seems to be not very much finished from the corners as it looks in Xiaomi mi 4 which has nice curvical shape from the sides with good finishes. Moreover, I didn't find the display to be more pleasant it is just so so even Meizu phones have got better display than this Xiaomi Mi 4c. The most important point I want to share is this phone heated alot from the front and back when I used. I didn't play any games, I just took couples of pictures from front and rear cameras and then opened some apps that were already installed but the phone got hotter with in 3 minutes of usage. So as per my experience, the major major here is the heating problem which most of the Xiaomi phones suffer with so is the case with Xiaomi mi 4c.

  • it will be a very nice upgrade, as for gaming concern, in current gen, processors and ram dont matter so match its the gpu and its glops.. Adreno 418(snapdragon 808) being in 4c has much more score than even Adreno330( snadragon 801) or way too ahead than Adreno 320( snapdragon 600)which is used in mi2s.

  • Prolly will have mi 4c very soon cause an exclusive online dealer here in the philippines stopped supplying mi 4i.

  • How much is the available storage on the 16 GB version?

  • interesting specs,great combination too,higher then mi4 but built like mi4i,good idea.. quad core and dual core means it's hexa core?I wonder how about the game performance on this phone.. I want to upgrade my old xiaomi mi2s,and the choice is this or mi note pro,this one more price friendly though but I'm in love with mi note pro,hmmm....very confused now

  • it does have gorilla glass, so I guess you are the fool

  • Please. Come. To. Malaysia.

  • hello the mi4c have DAC ampilier?

  • Im very eagerly waiting for this phone to launch in india.From some sources on the net i got to know that Mi4C international version both in black and white colour is now available for international preorder and yes it will come with internal custom ROMS and the preorders ends on 22nd of October,so guyz there is a high chance that launch of Mi4c will be declared in india before the preorder date which is on 22nd of october,Fingers Crossed hope to hear the launch of this phone soon in india and again it will be first available on Mi.com/Flipkart.com keep ur eyes on this sites for more news.

  • Have you ever earned an IPHONE ??? You mean Apple is a joke that's you they are having second highest market share in today's date . Buy an iPhone then repost this status Okay!

  • Still the same reason why Xiaomi omitted NFC from current flagship lines: low level of adoption in their target markets (China, India and some Southeast Asia). The same reasoning for why it puts instead an IR Blaster.

  • My phone takes 1.4-1.5 hrs for full charge for 2400mhp battery (no quick charge features). How this stupid features mentioned for Mi 4c quick charge shall take 2.5hrs in total to complete battery full. I'm confusing

  • no fingerprint sensor?

  • Apple is a rubbish phone ... xiaomi gives very good quality in much readonable price. Three cheers to xiaomi...

  • Xiaomi has no plan to lunch mi 4c in India... its available only in Chinese market.....

  • no nfc?

  • Seems a very good phone but I wonder about the glass type. Also, is there any performance benchmarks after this was released in China?

  • loooool I completely agree, this is definitely slow charging technologie :p it seems that for xiaomi the definition of the fast charging is not that clear. I've the mi note 2 and they says that it support fast charging although it's only simply charging 60% in 66min

  • no screen protection....gorilla glass or dragon trail glass .....worse phone.... xiaomi people are a fool

  • so nic phon.......

  • This is sheer partiality. Same phone except SoC and some minor changes,why MI released downgraded version with SD615 instead of SD808 for the same price in India? We would have paid 15k for this,pathetic!!

  • Next phone after my ol mi3...

  • My friend is using mi4i sience 4monts. gret phone nothing any problme. So i hope mi4c will be a exilante phone without any issue.

  • When will they start copying Vertu for certain design elements.

  • I like it if they bring this to India for under 15-18k, this is a sure sell. They could've gone with gorilla glass protection, sd slot, and quick charge function as many have mentioned.

  • Iphone apps and android apps are somewhat in different level, apple apps didnt eat much of ur memory while android do,.. And miui eat a lot of memory 6 gb,.. Wow they better remove some trash applications somewhere

  • Of what the display glass made of ? Gorilla glass 3 or any other glass to protect from scratches & beaks. This is important to me for purchase Mi 4c.

  • My phone takes 1.4-1.6 hrs for full charge for 2400mhp battery (no quick charge features). How this stupid features mentioned for Mi 4c quick charge shall take 2.5hrs in total to complete battery full. I'm confusing.

  • 5.5inch screen . 2.2ghz octa core with snapdragon 808 accept

  • Apple is a joke

  • Get Redmi Note4G if you want it.

  • From the pictures it looks beautiful.

  • SAR value is found under the battery.

  • I am pretty sure SD 808 supports LTE 300 Mbps dl speed

  • No NFC?

  • OTG support or not

  • Who cares whether you buy it or not there are many in line waiting...

  • famous chinese leaker hahaa?? its officially announced 16 GB, 2 GB RAM/ 32 GB, 3 GB RAM.

  • any mention related to SAR values (previous xiaomi phones had high SAR values).

  • perfect! great job xiaomi! high spec great price nice phone

  • you say blindly copy Apple's bad design using crapy pin to remove sim card. the 1st phone using pin to remove sim card was nokia 7280 just search google you fanboy!!

  • Yes, blindly copy Apple's bad design using crapy pin to remove sim card.

  • Please Xiaomi ... release this phone in India...!!! Don't keep this gem for just the Chinese market... India deserves this phone too... It will only serve to catapult you to the No. 1 spot in the country...

  • Apple iPhone 6 has 16 GB and no one is complaining about it. 32 means minimum 26 GB for the user. C'mon its sufficient.

  • How?

  • Wish you could buy it everywhere. I really like it.

  • Cause they are copying apple. From design to interface.

  • plz Make A Card Slot .....

  • Absolutely agree with you..

  • This is reportedly priced at $200, loving how this will incite the competition! Though of course, Nexus 6 & OnePlus 2 are only +$100 away.

  • no slot micro sd? Do you learn or not from Mi 4i? so sad.....

  • It would be good if the display origin and screen protection level is confirmed officially. I read in some places that the Mi 4c comes with a Sharp IPS display but the information on whether it has any display protection (eg Corning Gorilla 3 glass or something similar) is not provided. I realize that this phone is intended primarily for the Chinese market but this does not mean people from other countries are not interested in buying the phone. Looking forward to GSMArena reviewing this phone.

  • That's true. Even Xiaomi low range phones support OTG transfer.

  • Great. Industry first Wi-Fi 802.11 ac MU-MIMO device.

  • Is this not a quick charge _ 40% in 60min. Something wrong.

  • Are you kidding me? 32gb storage????!!!! & no sd card slott. I'll never buy this phone. Ever...

  • doesnt have a card slot

  • Nowadays can transfer file via otg. Faster and similar interface.

  • it has every thing

  • Though SD 808 capable to record 4K why Mi 4c can't; still 1080p rec and no sd card slot

  • You should check out Find 7A with OPPO VOOC FLASH (fast) charge

  • yes

  • Ugh! why not 5.5 inch display?

  • i dont understand why non of xiaomi phones support microsd card

  • Nfc?

  • it is 1080P Full HD Screen

  • And also in Malaysia!! No redmi note 2,No mi 4c

  • Holy Shit! It will not be released in India! It is a China OnlyDevice! Poor!

  • Mi 4cwill win on performance....full hd vs quadhd screen

  • does it have OTG?

  • Does it have screen protections

  • please update s{ecification! these are not acurate! on mi forum there is the right spec as it is realising today(22 sept 2015)

  • Battery is 3080 mAh

  • That's why you use apps like 'My Backup Pro', to backup everything online. I've been using it for years, and I can't think if anything else that could be better. It backs up EVERYTHING. SMS, calls, apps + progress etc. pictures. you name it.

  • where to see the imports?

  • Does it provide the same performance that of LG G4?

  • Xiaomi generally does not give sd card slot, it is the biggest minus of its phones. Many people have concern that if the phone gets faulty,then we cannot backup data before handing over the device to service centre. If there were a memory card we could have simply removed that. I will never like to buy such kind of phone.

  • This phone wont launch in India, at least not initially. Customs data doesn't show any imports of this device.

  • i fully agree with purush comment........

  • %40 in 60 minutes?? The information must be wrong it cant be quick charge

  • Very dispointed to the poor camera performance, battery also far from expectation

  • Xiaomi smartphones having very good spec. No doubt but but you can't compare Quality Standard of Xiaomi with Apple.Apple Quality parameter is very very high.Xiaomi is far away for delivering a standard quality.Out of 100 Smartphone you will get 15 % of defective product.Xiaomi Quality standard is very low.

  • I, Really Need 4 Things in the Upcoming Xiaomic Mobiles 1) Removable Battery 2) Memory Card Slot. 3) NFC 4) Service center across india * They should solve heating issues too. * 5.2 inch screen is a very good move. Rest are Awesome, yet little worried about spying.

  • no sd crd too bad

  • I meant Snapdragon 808 might overheat so watch out the Review b4 buying it! If you are a gamer go for Zenfone 2 for 13k! It has the Power Vr 6430 GPU which is way powerful tha Power VR6200! So if the mi4c heats go for Redmi Note 2 or Zenfone 2!

  • What about heating and hanging issues pls reply fast

  • no external memory slot? too bad

  • no card slot?? x(

  • If the rumours are true, I'll get that 3GB RAM + 32GB storage version when it is released.

  • You mean the MT6795 Helio X10 on Redmi Note 2 is overheating?

  • I think you have to wait till mi4c comes because this chip is capable of overheating! But Helio x10 of Redmi note 2 has PowerVr G6200 which is a weak GPU when compared with Helio x10! Eve the Zenfone 2 of 200$ have G6430 is not even comparable with G6200! Manh! Just wait till the launch and review of the device! Lets see how the CPU performs! Then plan the buy! If its not over heating buy the Mi 4c!

  • xiaomi redmi note 2 Vs xiaomi mi 4c which one is the best phone ? plz comment guys i cant choose one :(

  • Shame on you! You should enquire correctly! Redmi Note 2 has a memory card slot and removable battery! It's also powered by a Flagship chip 6795T/6795 (Helio x10) at a budget!

  • You cannot confirm it because it is powered by a snapdragon chip! So it can be launched in India!

  • What Stupid Question Man! It's powered by a flagship Chip! That means USB Otg will be Supportive!

  • Might be about 13k as it is available in Oppomart( a reseller not a company who tied up with xiaomi) for 229$! It may be available for 200$ directly from xiaomi! That means about 13k!

  • I am very much interested in this phone but I have two questions. 1) Will it be available soon in India or international stores? 2) How will Adreno 418 perform over 1080 x 1920 in gaming? will it be near comparable to Adreno 430 over 1440 x 2560?

  • bro so we want comparison with MOTOROLA DROID TURBO its have 3900MAH battery with Fast battery charging: 60% in 30 min (Quick Charge 2.0) :D thank you bro :)

  • It will have usb type C

  • What about more money?

  • Mi is good quality phone and come with guarantee for life time so shut up guy's

  • Bro, iPhone's battery capacity is much much much lower than Androids.

  • what is this ? fast charging 40 % in just 1 hour :D :D thats not called fast charging m using iphone 5 and its charge 40 % in just 30min :D :D & iphone 5 has no fast charging technology :D

  • Famous Chinese leaker has already mentioned that there will be a 32 GB version of the mi4c

  • What about OTG?

  • 16gb internal memory without MicroSD Slot is useless.

  • USB Type-C then it would be awesome.

  • if you are having memory trouble then you can connect pendrive via usb connector

  • Any way this is not going to launch in India. very Sad.....

  • goodphone, but need octacore&removable battery

  • 16GB Phone with no expandable memory is lame. We need SD Card support. This is why i don't prefer Xiaomi

  • Internal memory is sufficient 11.5gb in16 GB version

  • Get it.A nice set

  • 16Gb/2Gb RAM? No expandable memory? Such a waste of an otherwise decent phone.

  • great phone ... but pls launch 32 GB varient ... :) xiaomi is better then samsung , lava , micromax ,Zte , karbonn,meizu :p

  • Absolutely right

  • xiaomi- y u can't hav a mem. Card slot ?

  • brain without beauty, again mistaken..... Xiaomi pl change this way of configuration.....

  • at the first place, what's special with samsung units in the same price ranged? i bet this is better than those A series and E series

  • so xiaomi is the poor man's samsung... making multiple phones with a number series(alphabetical series on samsung)... well thats cool strategy, giving varied choices to its customers...

  • Now it's a super phone with snapdragon 808 cpu. Better performance no heating issues

  • What a joke..are you. OK!! Apple is world class

  • Back to school price cut this week. $40 off the regular price.

  • You're right, Xiaomi never have the standards Apple have. And for that I'm thankful. Apple overcharge for old technology where they pay millions for celebrity's to endorse their product (enforcing the cost on their customers), Xiaomi cut out the middle man and just make powerful/efficient/reliable/cheap but high quality products. They advertise through the phones speaking for themselves, not for your favorite music artist to tell you a 'paid for' opinion.

  • Xiaomi is never Apple standards...

  • where cani buy xiomi in south africa?

  • Way to otg sport & USB sport this mobile WiFi hotspot rom is low bed think so

  • It is the best mobile in the midrange because it is not expandable.Top brand like Apple or Xiome is against the use memory card slot . Usb host is key of this mobile.

  • Specs are awesome but if it has expandable memory it is awesome mobile.

  • 16Gb and 2Gb pair is a bad one, shame because that SoC is moderately nice (unlike that overheating 810)

  • the aspect that it doesnt give you freedom or contemporary styling needs is bad. but i love the specs and the possibly jaw dropping price.

  • 16 GB with card slot would be great deal

  • Did you you can plug in a USB Flash Drive with USB OTG feature so you can have more than 16GB ROM.

  • You get for what you pay for

  • Another 16GB non expandable storage? What the hell is Xiaomi thinking. Not to tell that even their flagship phones Mi3 and Mi4 are waiting for lollipop in the Era of Marshmallow..

  • if xiaomi doesnt want to put more than 2 slots in a phone they could at least have the other sim card slot be convertible into a microsd slot. they should know by now that 16gb doesnt cut it anymore.

  • No water resistant? Only 16 gb internal ? Otherwise everything is best.

  • Again poor ram 16 gb same as mi 4i mi should go beyond this

  • 16Gb storage is a joke

  • Its useless to say, they will produce same shit with poor storage

  • present time the media is so much advance and heavy with the changing media quality , 16 gb would not be sufficient, if they can give sd card slot in redmi note 2 in chinese version so, why not in india please xiaomi do something with the memory

  • Again & again poor stroage.Only 16gb rom.I think not more than 12 gb will be user avilable.It means your life is limited to 12gb!

  • is it real ? mi4i is best phone only processor is not good.. if it is real then it gonna rock wit 808

  • Sounds good...seems like flagship configuration....even worth waiting... But benchmark results are always key factors....

  • Great configuration

  • Xiaomi should upgrade its flagship Mi4 running on Snapdragon 801..if it can't launch Mi5 with a better processor anytime soon.
