hey anyone had detail about that Rs 4000 upcoming xiaomi phone, what is the spce, available date etc...

 

[dashing.sujay]

Got the phone... Updated to v45... Quite a decent phone for 6k... Almost as good as a Moto G... Total value for money.

Any recommendations for Headphone settings under Sound >> Optimise Audio Quality?

Also, please let me know if there is any way to disable capacitive hardware keys and enable software keys for the phone... That is one sore point while using this phone...

Cheers!

There is an option to disable the capacitative hardware keys, however I'm not sure what do you mean by software keys ?

Word of caution for future Redmi buyers

Moving on, what kind of price segments are you targeting in India?
We’re not looking at segmentation. We’re looking for these magic price points. We’re not actively saying that let’s make a device that we can sell for say Rs 18,999. Xiaomi has two kinds of devices, one is the high-end absolutely uncompromised Mi family and then there’s the Redmi family, which is high-end but with some compromises.

The word "some compromises" reveals why redimi 1s has no performance with the sepc it offers.

Haha. Then there is no need to get too excited about the upcoming 4G phone at 4k lol.

 

[dashing.sujay]

How do you do that?

Pull the notification drawer, click on more. Then there's a "Disable" button. Just click that and you're good to go.

MiUI has many hidden features, still exploring.

Too complicated... Easier method is SoftKey Enabler - Android Apps on Google Play

I have seen many people wanting single Sim phones instead of dual Sim. Is there any particular reason for that? I find dual sim pretty useful.

I have till not not able to figure out the need for a dual sim phone especially for me.

Dual SIM is nothing but hassle. You need to manually switch between the two whenever you need to call from one. Then when you realize your call isn't going through, you realize you forgot to do that. But this is not the most prominent reason.

Actual reason is that dual sim phone Android phones will never have the kind of developer support that a single sim have. Simply because most of the devs on XDA are from countries where only single sim phones are sold.

^^ I don't think single sim or dual sim matters as far as developer support is concerned. I think Redmi 1S has good developer support.

Between, I went through few reviews and I think 3G model has better performance than 4G.
But 3G model has MTK SoC where as 4G has SD.

3G Note or 4G Note or wait for MI4? Confused.
