YSREDMI

Hi all,

In my new role as sales representative for Yoshop I've tried to negotiate the BEST deal for you on the Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime (Released November 2016).

Yoshop http://www.yoshop.com/ are a 'Lifestyle' store based in Hong Kong and sell a range of items online inc. Phones, Menswear, Gadgets, Watches, Bags and Electronics. They offer a range of postage options, the security of PayPal payment system and also have an iOS and Android App.


Today's deal:

Xiaomi Redmi 4 Prime - Released November 2016 to top reviews e.g: http://www.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_redmi_4_prime-review-1526.php

Comparison with Samsung Galaxy S6 and Mi5 http://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8263&idPhone2=… show it holds it's own in quite a few categories as a great low budget alternative to other handsets, especially for the price.

Cheaper than nocure's S5 Android recent post which I think is a relevant comparison point.

YouTube Review

        • Hi 1Cawk,

          Unfortunately there are no peripherals sold by Yoshop for this phone, just the handset.
          I'd recommend this link from Gearbest. They sell a wide range of screen protectors/covers for the Redmi.

        • @rawm: Thanks for the quick replies. Will grab a phone now :)

  • REP:I want to buy the gray color. I am not able to use the coupon. Please advise

    • Hi Dealsclaw,
      The current promotion is only available for the White variant. This is why the code cannot be applied.

    My Phone arrived today with 8.0.5.0.0 firmware. According to the Miui forums this firmware is vendor firmware and NOT official (see here: http://en.miui.com/thread-472947-1-1.html )
    I would recommend downloading the official global firmware and updating before you use your phone.

  • I'm getting a price of AU$221.79 on yoshop

    https://www.aliexpress.com/store/product/Original-Xiaomi-Red… Aliexpress fantacy AU $211.85

    They are the same phone right?

  • the price went up!

    • Yeh it is A$242.23 with the shipping and promo code :(

  • Sales Rep. I have ordered mine, I really need it in 5-7 days. Let's pray to get it on time.
    Price was as advertised. Only thing is that some credit cards charge you conversion fees from USD to AUD, not much thou.

  • Anyone receive the mobile from yoshop yet? What is your experience? Is the mobile working fine with Optus 4G?

    ATM I have trouble to login to the site…..

      I ordered mine on the 21st of Jan and it arrived on the 3rd of Feb (I only got to pick this up from Auspost on the 6th). Packaging was very good. The phone works fine using Amaysim (which uses the Optus 4G network). As I mentioned previously in this thread, I suggest you update the firmware of the phone as soon as you get it as the default phone ROM is an unofficial vendor ROM. One thing that is odd is that there is no ability to select 'Australia' as a region for the phone. As per the Miui forums, I set the region to 'Singapore' and everything works fine. This issue is discussed here: http://en.miui.com/thread-245055-1-1.html

      • Thanks a lot dude! Your posts will make it a lot easier for me as soon as my phone arrives

        • +2

          An additional step I had to do was unlock developer mode as follows: go to SETTINGS>ABOUT PHONE and tap 'miui label' 6 or 7 times (just like in this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Jg32xUH18GA )

          You can then access advanced USB settings and turn on "Developer options" and "USB Debugging" as explained here: http://xiaomiadvices.com/miui-7-enable-developer-options-and…

          For some reason I needed to do this to get MTP working on the phone and to move the official Global ROM from my PC to the Phone's internal memory.

          Also note that you must transfer the ROM as a .rar file (do not attempt to extract this file as it will not be recognised). Finally, once you have the Official ROM transferred to your phone, simply use the 'updater' app that is on the phone to select the ROM and install. This requires you to be connected via WLAN (wifi) so that the ROM can be verified. http://en.miui.com/a-232.html This will take around 10 minutes to flash.

          As a final warning, please ensure you have the 'Global ROM' and not the Chinese version. The latter can apparently brick your phone if you are not careful.

  • Finally after downloaded a new Chrome browser, the site is working properly!

  • Hi Rep, I still haven't got my phone, i have a tracking number and it just says waiting for collection, any help?

      Hi eunnip,
      Please PM me your tracking number and order number and I'll get back you ASAP. Cheers

      • I sent you a PM! Thanks.

        For anyone wondering, I ordered on the 23rd of January on express shipping and still haven't got it. I'm thinking I may cancel and then buy it again somewhere else.]

        • Mine is the same details as yours on the tracking. Maybe they're sending as a batch ?

        • @nekov:

          Did you get express shipping as well? When did you order?

        • @eunnip:
          Ordered on 24th with expedited shipping.
          I think it was 3-7 business days for delivery.
          I'm now guessing it's 3-7 Chinese business days.

        • Mine's identical. Ordered on 21 Jan with expedited shipping.

  • Hi Rep

    I ordered last week and my phone hasn't been sent yet. I posted a ticket and the response was the phone is being restocked. Can you confirm when it will be restocked? Thanks!

    • Hi Serial,
      Please PM me with your Order number/ticket number and I'll chase this up ASAP. Cheers

      • Hi rawm,
        Thanks for the quick reply! I just made this account so I can't send you a PM today. I will send the details through tomorrow.

  • Hi Rawm.
    I am really unhappy. I purchased on the 7th and up until today I don't have a tracking number and to make it worse I am also not able to log in to your website, I don't even get a error message, just click ok after typing my username and password and nothing happens. This was a gift that I am taking overseas in 5 days, if I don't get my phone I will ask for a refund. I asked you a few days before in this forum and got NO answer, scroll up and check it out. 07/02/2017 - 12:58

    • I've had the same problem logging in.
      It only worked with my home computer and mobile device.
      Couldn't log in via work computer, I suspect it's making a call to some banned site.

    • Hi lucasocampo,
      Please send a PM with all information (order number, postal address) and I can chase this up.
      Cheers,

    • I purchased one on the 3rd and they haven't shipped mine out yet either. I put a ticket in and the response was that they are restocking. They could not provide a date for when it would be sent (they said 7-15 days). I guess you're probably in the same boat!

  • +2

    I think the whole 'select expedited shipping for delivery and get your phone within 1 week!' Was a bit deceptive.

    I too ordered on 4th February with expedited shipping and then radio silence, OP/rep did their best to follow up but I ran out of time and requested refund through PayPal yesterday and to their credit it was processed within a couple of hours.

  • I purchased and paid for the phone and expedited shipping (extra 20-30AUD ) on the 30th Jan. Still waiting………. apparently delivery is 2-7 days. Its been more than 2 weeks already.

    • Total delivery time = Processing time + Shipping time

      Processing

      A: We will prepare your order after it have verified, such as strict quality control, arrange the suitable carriers.
      B: The most orders can ship out within 24 hours now, it is a small quantity orders need 3-5 business days to ship out in this part. If any issue, you can submit a ticket to our support center.

      Please PM me with your order number and postal address and I will look into this. Cheers.

      • +2

        No worries will PM.

        I understand there is processing time, which I can only assume is ordering from someone that has it in stock because you don't and then sending it to us.

        Processing time of 3-5 business days is totally unacceptable, same day or the next is what I would expect, as that is the standard for any company that on sells goods. Therefore as your first line reads "most orders can ship out within 24 hours" is what I took as what has occurred in this case, as it is only a small item.

        Taking your long lead times into account it should still have been delivered by now. I feel you are misleading customers indicating a 2-7 day delivery time if they pay extra for delivery.

        I also submitted a second ticket, and there has been no response.

        EDIT: Can't PM as it is a new account and currently I cannot login to retrieve my order #

        • UPDATE: I received my phone yesterday afternoon. The phone is great, other than having to update the ROM to the official global Rom I am very happy with the product so far.

          As for delivery time, I still find it misleading and deceptive.

  • Finally… phone arrived today. Ordered 21 January with expedited shipping. Arrived 15 Feb. Even allowing for Chinese New Year, 25 days is a bit more than the promised 3-7 working days.

    • Thanks for the update stralya. Great to hear you received your item.

  • +1

    Just an update for everyone. I ordered on the 3rd and the phone hasn't been sent out yet. I have been in regular contact with YoShop through tickets. They initially said they would restock in 7-15 days. It will be 15 days from my order tomorrow and their last message in the tickets said it would take a "little longer time". I've gotten tired of this and have requested a refund, I'll order one from the big AliExpress sellers.

  • Hey can anyone confirm the wait on this? Was told another 7-15 BD until its in stock.

    • A long time.

  • I am still waiting, I'll leave them a week before I claim with Paypal

    • Hi ntt,
      Please PM me with your order details and I'll follow this up for you ASAP.

  • Extremely disappointed with Xiaomi on this phone. The first 3 weeks of having the phone seemed great then the battery just stopped working. It was on about 30% charge then turned off in my hands and will not charge up. Will not buy another Xiaomi phone again.

    • Hi TruthBringer,
      Please PM me with your order number and I can look into your specific order details to determine what can be done.
