Personal views
- Its design is impressive and the build quality is pretty good for this price range.
- The not so large 5 inch screen that looks as large as iPhone 6 with 441 PPI capability is pretty impressive. This screen and picture quality is a true value for money.
- Snapdragon 615 2nd generation is a mid-range processor supported with 2 GB RAM. The past impression on this processor about heating issues is a quite pull back. But XIAOMI has launched an update which removes the heating issue.
- After using this phone for just 1 week I am facing problems with back key
