      ahh, the dreaded curse of Touchwiz, old people get used to it, then they can use nothing but Touchwiz from then on. Year after year they can only use Samsung.

      That's the reason why I install Nova launcher on any phone I set up for my mum, because I can keep a consistent experience for her no matter which brand of phone she uses.

        My mum has a smart phone from aldi.. so i'm pretty sure that doesn't have touchwiz. Although, in saying that, i don't mind touchwiz on my phone.. but i don't like how Samsung are now selling their phones almost the same prices as Apple :-(

          @Risto: Not really, Xiaomi Mi 5 is on par with Samsung S7 and most other "flagship" phones, but half the price. Got one for my son recently, very well built phone with great specs, $485 delivered unlocked, don't knock 'em till you've tried 'em :)

        • [Deactivated] on 21/07/2016 - 21:27

          @fsdef01: I own the ole slippery Mi5. It's not on par with the s7. The camera is terrible at night. The MIUI interface is rubbish. The latest official ROM update put pretty Chinese boys as my start screen. It's a very average phone with a decent processor. I'm looking forward to my G5 so I can have a decent camera and flawless integration with Google services, unlike the Mi5.

        +2

        Hardware is exactly the same, the only reason you can't do OTA update is quite complicated to explain. Basically Xiaomi has decided to lock bootloader and require you to apply for permission to unlock.

        So these Chinese sellers can't flash Global ROM to Chinese Mi phone anymore, what I have found out is that they flashed the Global ROM while the phone bootloader is LOCKED. The result will be

        1. Some suppliers really know what they are doing, they ONLY flash the system.img, so the phone will retain EFS with both IMEIs number retained. This means ROM identifier is Chinese ROM but the whole body is Global ROM. You can check MIUI version and you will see LxxCNxxx code which indicate this is Chinese ROM.

        2. Some suppliers do it the wrong way, which means they flash the wrong ROM (Global ROM to Chinese version) while the bootloader is locked. The result of this is that it will wipe out EFS (secured partition that store IMEIs) and when you check the IMEI numbers (*#06#) you will see both IMEIs are the same. Your phone still works fine on both SIMs but it has the potential problem if the Telco change their settings.

        Imagine when the phone connect to the network, the network recognise 2 exactly same phone is trying to connect using 2 SIMs at the same time.

        • samehada on 21/07/2016 - 15:09

          The 1st cases will make your phone failed with any OTA update, including the restore option through MiPCSuite. The ONLY way to flash the rom is using direct Fastboot Flash method.

          The 2nd cases, there is way to rewrite the 2nd IMEI number to the phones, there is a way to find out the 2nd IMEIs number and rewrite it. It is highly technical though.

          You can turn your phone to official Global ROM by request unlock permission to unlock the bootloader and then using Fastboot Flash to flash Global ROM to your Mi Phone. In the 2nd case you can repair the 2nd IMEI number but it is quite technical and requires you to root the phone.

    FYI this is the Redmi 3 not the Redmi Note 3 (5.0 inch 720P screen vs 5.5 inch 1980P screen). Their naming is confusing as. :D

    As far as I can see their "Overseas Edition" is just flashed with the Global ROM out of the box, as opposed to the vendor/Chinese ROM with install Google Play installed. You should be able to flash the Global ROM but takes a bit of tinkering and chance of bricking the phone.

    • slow on 21/07/2016 - 08:12

      From my understanding there is no official global ROM yet for this phone. Only for the note.

      • samehada on 21/07/2016 - 15:18

        You are right, there is NO Global ROM for Redmi 3, this phone is not sold outside Chinese market. It means this is misleading advertising. They must have tampered with the ROM by flash system.img of another Global ROM (maybe RMN3 ROM). If you have this phone just check MIUI version in the About phone or try to use MiPCSuite Restore option to find out the true version of the phone.

        • cuteseal on 22/07/2016 - 11:32

          My bad guys, I've got the Redmi Note 3 and thought it would be the same :D

    • samehada on 21/07/2016 - 15:11

      The ONLY Overseas edition is non-Chinese version (usually HK version) or they have obtained bootloader unlocked permission and do a proper Global ROM flash.

      From the above listed frequency bands it appears that it does not support band 28.

      Band 1 - 2100
      Band 7 - 2600

          @grimo82: Band 28 is only required for the "super fast" 4G on Telstra and Optus networks. These utilise the 700Mhz frequency spectrum.

        • carazy on 21/07/2016 - 13:50
          +1

          @grimo82: B28 isn't required. Most phones in Aus that are 2+ years old don't have it.
          Telstra and Optus are moving/have moved to B28 700Mhz for their 4G networks. Having B28 is sort of future proofing your choice if it's a long term phone.

      If you barely do any web browsing and just use your phone for phone calls, you could happily survive with your current phone.

      If you do any sort of web browsing or use apps this upgrade would vastly increase the speed of opening apps and browsing web pages and probably greatly affect how much you enjoy using your phone.

      Phones in this price range are aimed at people who don't feel the need to buy the most expensive flagship phone yearly.

      • furiousgeorge on 21/07/2016 - 17:03

        Cool ok thankyou both. Can I just bung in my sim card and away it goes? I know nothing about flashing phones.

        • rockmelon on 21/07/2016 - 18:54
          +2

          No worries, personally I'm looking into this deal also and this particular version should be already setup out of box only requiring you to log in to google services etc. It has multi language support and the easy to use MIUI ROM (Xiaomi's customisation of Android).

          Another positive is that the ROM currently installed will most likely receive over the air updates so you won't have to do any flashing yourself to keep your phone updated with the newest version of MIUI.

          I recommend you have a look on Youtube at MIUI to see if it's to your liking, if you don't intend to flash another ROM you will be stuck with it.

          A couple negatives I've noticed is that this phone does not come with NFC so Android Pay is out of the question. Also MIUI does not currently support 'Google Now on Tap' another nice feature but a lot of people won't even notice if they had it.

        • rockmelon on 21/07/2016 - 19:02

          ~ If you do end up purchasing the phone don't forget to order a new SIM card as your Samsung S1 Standard SIM card won't fit.

          Your telco such as Optus,Telstra etc will usually cut or give you a new SIM card on the spot if you take it into one of their stores. Make sure you ask for Micro SIM size because if you get the Nano SIM size you won't be able to use a SD card in conjunction with a Nano SIM card as they occupy the same slot in this particular phone.

          @inmyplums: Have you tried it in different area. Optus 3G can be unreliable, like in the Perth CBD there is a dead spot where you cannot do anything at all. If you haven't, try using the internet in another area.

          @inmyplums: Try Connect as the APN for your Optus Data SIM, rather than YesInternet or Internet. That's what I had to do with the Data SIM in my phone - even though it's a locked-to-Optus handset.

  • MayhemVC on 22/07/2016 - 21:49

    I have this phone.

    There is no such thing as an 'International Edition' of this phone.
    What they do is flash their own custom ROM onto the phone.
    The main reason for doing this is because the official ROM from Xiaomi does not include the Google Play Store.

    This can be considered a good thing, however, you are unable to get updates and will be stuck with the ROM that it came with only. This ultimately causes issues with the Google Play Store also.

    It took me ages but I finally managed to flash the official (Chinese) ROM from Xiaomi.
    So I can now use the phone (in English) however there is no Google Play Store.
    My plan was to sit it our and wait for the Global ROM to get released.
    Unfortunately, Xiaomi have no plans to support this phone with a Global ROM.

    My advice is avoid this phone for now.
    If you want to buy a Xiaomi phone (I use a Mi4 as my daily driver) MAKE SURE THAT IS HAS A GLOBAL ROM

    You can pick up a Mi4 for around AUD$200 delivered and its a great phone.

    Damn.. Looks like I pulled the trigger too soon on this one. It is a little misleading I must admit - i assumed it was a global official rom. Foolish of me. MayhemVC how so you flash the official Chinese Rom in order to recieve updates? There is a way to get play services on the Chinese rom too isnt there?

      You need to download the MiFlash tool from here: http://en.miui.com/thread-272376-1-1.html

      Then you need to hunt down a FASTBOOT ROM for the Redmi 3 (not the standard ROM).
      Hopefully these links should still work: http://en.miui.com/thread-218644-1-1.html

      You should then end up with an unadulterated version of the official Chinese MIUI ROM from Xiaomi.
      You can then perform an update as normal (OTA or just download and flash manually).
      But as mentioned it won't come with Google Play Store, so no apps.

      You can try side-loading them, however, I find this a pain and it never seems to fully integrate.

      The device is officially supported in terms of custom recovery: https://twrp.me/devices/xiaomiredmi3.html and there are a number of custom ROMs out there, however, Xiaomi have started to lock the bootaloader on their devices so you have to email them requesting an unlock.

        Sweet, thanks! Isn't there a play store app in the miu App Store ? I'm a noob with xiaomi. My meizu m2 was easy to load Google framework onto.

    Just be aware there is a newer Redmi 3s which comes with a MM 6.0 Miui 7.3, has a more efficient SOC, a 2GB version with FP scanner and supposedly better rear camera. See differences at http://en.miui.com/thread-307205-1-1.html . The 3s costs a little more than the 3.

    QUESTION: After doing some reading on the Xiaomi Mi IV Hybrids, it seems I've read a few comments that they are only marginally better than the Piston III's.

    So anyone care to comment on their value here given they are three times as expensive as Piston IIIs?
