The Official Xiaomi Discussion Thread

Some questions about Redmi 1S.
1. Which glass does it have ? Gorilla or Dragon Tail ? is DragonTail good enough ?
2. The dual Sim are GSM and other WCDMA ? and is there 3g on GSM ?
3. How much free RAM is available ?i've heard MIUI takes up a hecking lot of RAM ?
4. Is this device getting some ROM support in near future ? or at least and android update ?

1. yes DragonTail is the brand similar to the Gorilla Glass by Corning Incorporated... it is some chinese brand. Some phone which have used this branded glass are Xperia Z/Z1/Z2, Galaxy Nexus and other Xolo, Lava,etc
2. yes one WCDMA sim only will support 3g . other phone can utilise one 2g from other sim card.
3. 400MB is available. Yes it eats a lot of RAM.. serious -ve point.
4. Can't say at point of time.. ideally there should be some custom ROM available in future. And Xiaomi has announced that they will be giving an update in December for next android release.

Almost all dual SIM phones support 3G in only 1 slot. The only difference being that some phones allow 3G to be activated on both the slots while some restrict that to a specific slot and this seems to be the case with Redmi.

Its Dragontrail not Dragontail. It is made by Asahi. Its a Big Japanese Company. Very highly respected for making one of the finest glasses in the world.Its owned by Mitsubishi now. Very well known in the automotive industry too. Corning is a smaller entity in front of Asahi.

If anyone has one in their cart but don't require, then I'd appreciate if they could order it to my address.

I am in college till 7pm and there is no network coverage so can't purchase. Also, if anyone could register for the 9th Sept sale and order a piece for me, it would be great. Thanks.

One of my friend has decided to not purchase Redmi 1s after adding it into cart reading poor reviews. If anyone still needs Redmi 1s I might ( not sure) arrange one for him

Mi 3 ROM 23 HDR mode and Normal mode renders the same image no difference. In ROM 18 HDR used to expose low light images with proper exposure or correct metering,now no more.
