Chivas Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Having just bought a Samsung Galaxy s7 edge under contract greatly reduced because 2016 model have to say its the dogs bollacks of a phone. Probably never use 95% of the features lol but nevertheless its gorgeous. Better than all phones ive had combined previously Provided I look after it (and have put covers on) this will do me 5 years + Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Argus Tuft Posted October 1, 2017 Share Posted October 1, 2017 Xiaomi fan - got Redmi 3 Pro last August, been a stable and excellent device. Came with Chinese ROM but I flashed to Global - make sure if you get one it has the Global ROM installed Next phone will be a Xiaomi too - although I like to get at least a couple of years use out of my mobiles before upgrading Oddly enough I spotted Xiaomi phones for sale in Tesco last week, of all places (Samui to be precise) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Better than all phones ive had combined previously Provided I look after it (and have put covers on) this will do me 5 years + Did the same a few weeks ago. Picked one up from an AIS shop when I changed my contract (which I wanted to do anyway) for 13,500, deduct the 7,000 I sold my iPhone 6 for and I ended up paying just 6,500. Most impressed, only changed as I'd gotten sick of trying to manage the 16GB memory on the iP6 and decided I'd got fed up of shelling out top shelf prices for current year flagships. Checked in the Samsung store and they were still selling them for 24,900. So, bargain. In all honesty I'd have rather bought a Pixel but they're still going for 20K or so, it just wasn't worth another 7k to me. Plus of course, the Pixels are all grey imports, no warranty cover here in LOS if your'e unfortunate to get one that dies or develops a problem. Paranoid maybe but I prefer to buy things upwards of 10k with some kind of warranty. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SignUp Posted October 8, 2017 Share Posted October 8, 2017 Looking to maybe buy Xiaomi Mi6 or Mi Mix 2 (althought I don't like the price of mi mix 2 so probably not). Where would be the best? What about rom? I need both europe and thai sim card to work in it.. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
phutoie2 Posted October 9, 2017 Share Posted October 9, 2017 Using an Asus zenfone max, tank of a phone, 5000mAh battery, 18 months use, no issues, well part from weight. Probably will look at the Motorola G5s plus, or Nokia 6/8 soon. Wife has an Oppo Joy 3, terrific little phone, all you would need if you wanted a kiss phone.

JaseTheBass Posted October 15, 2017 Share Posted October 15, 2017 Xiaomi are excellent. I am using one right now to write this post. It is a Remi4 with a deci processor. I think K it's every bit as good as any. 2 things I have found that I don't like. The dictionary like to take over what you write. And because the screen has a bevelled edge a hardened glass protector doesn't go right to the edge and the protector can break easier than normal.Easy to disable the predictive text.Sent from my R2D2 droid using my C3P0 manservant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DogNo1 Posted October 21, 2017 Share Posted October 21, 2017 If you are willing to buy without handling and examining the phone first, Lazada is an option for Xiaomi and other brands. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or try AIS, Dtac, T**e, Jaymart or any of the other chain retailers found in your local shopping mall.Sent from my R2D2 droid using my C3P0 manservant Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
