Thanks for those supportive words..
Actually I had got one earlier on 9th Sept for my sis in law but she had not started using it. Camera is superb much better to my bro's Asus Zenfone 5. Display is superb too...

My Lumia 520's battery back up is an issue & it now almost 14 months used so wanted to have some change mostly in windows but nothing interesting as of now. I have high hope from Lumia 730 so for time being till 730 gets decent price drop thought of having Redmi 1s by just spending 2k more [4k for my lumia 520].

My daily usage would be calling 30 - 45 mins max, 3-4 hrs net surfing,
Apps like office app with PDF reader, Google maps, FB, Tapatalk, Whats-app, Hike, 2 Gmail accounts , 1 Outlook account, 5 popular online shopping site apps, sometimes while travelling may play small games like traffic racer, subway surfers, temple run etc., may try Asphalt 8 too as it my favorite which i love to play on my nexus 7 but cannot do while commuting in public transport.

Music would not be top priority on red mi as I carry my nationite n2 daily with me may try initially.

Ready to compromise a bit but MIUI 6 must resolve these issues Or may be an patch asap to address these issues.

thanks again bro..

In performance term redmi suck atleast my device I hope they fix the issues in next updates. You wont believe me but sometimes keyboard takes 3 seconds to appear and music app force close if you open facebook app and chrome browser simultaneously. It feels like I am running a 512 mb ram device

Facebook is the worst app in Android remove it as soon as possible.You can access facebook through browser it is lot better.Both facebook and chrome are heavy apps so that is expected I think every other phone till 12k will face same issue.

yesterday i successfully added Resmi 1S to my cart on Flipkart, but since Android One devices are coming at a cheap price with all Google updated for next two years, I decided to go for Android One devices, I ordered Redmi for my friend and will wait for more Android One devices to come

I feel same getting a Android One device make more sense if Stock android is what people are looking for.directly getting update from google is a big plus.

MIUI is having almost all useful apps So installing 3rd party apps is not really necessary except for games So i suggest you not to install apps unless it is utmost important to you.
This way you can improve a lot in battery backup.

lying in box???
havent you used it?
go to settings>battery>batteryuse>will show different apps/others that use your power , screen should usually top the list tap on it and it will show the time used by screen

btw if you are planning to use the phone for browsing ,depending on the source of internet the battery life will be affected
even on mi3 using wifi continuosly browsing (mostly browsing webpages using operamini/ucweb ,some whatsapp) i hve got 6.5hours average (SOT), it will decrease much further if you use 3g , expect lesser times on redmi

for mi3 users there is an official AOSP rom released on english forums
AOSP 4.4.4 Stock Android for Mi 3 W/C & Mi 4 by ivan ????. Updated 9.18 - Xiaomi Mi 3 - MIUI Official Community

no clue about the bugs!

Fcuk it. I never consider (major) software updates as a reason to buy phone after JB. Sometimes, people give too much importance to it rather than buying a "complete" phone.

If my phone works fine at 4.3, then I do not need any further, at least just to "upgrade".

Its a stock android bro!!

thanks . will check & revert back
Actually one which I received earlier is for my sis in law & she has not started using it. Just checked the display & camera.

BTW could not find the app kill option anywhere[Generally it was long press home button on her Huawei y300] Or does it kills on its own in MIUI ? please clarify that too....

Is there any Manual for REDMI 1S??

 

[nikhilsharma007nikx]

Well I am reading about these issues in Redmi 1S and people are fed of even not able to pick a call ! what a phone is when it cant pick a call !
Any one here who is using it can shed some light on certain bugs and their minor fixes else im gonna go with moto e !
A review on TDF would help too.
Not like i've not read any review online but they seem to provide a cover knowledge not the real usage one.
Please help me guyz !

[RCuber]

The 3 free screen protector given with 1S is pathetic.. Please suggest a good glass based screen protector.

Does anybody knows when Mi3 will be available again ? I wonder why they discontinued it ? Redmi 1s is not in the same price bracket. It would not affected the sale of Redmi 1S.

 

[nikhilsharma007nikx]

It will continue for SURE in October. They will sell each of the Sets Alternatively. By gods grace it may be available with out flash sale ??

 

[amjath]

Infibeam will be selling as well
