Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 5.5" Phablet - $210 AUD - GearBest (Is this a good deal?)

Hi all.

I haven't paid much attention to Xiaomi's phone (there seems to be a lot of them, with similar names)?

Is the following listing a good deal?

Just looking for a cheap phone for my Mavic.

Thanks.

  • What's the difference between the phone in OP and this one?

      identical products.

      lowest price seen on Singles Day was 185.06 AUD for BLACK version

      • Many thanks. Wish I had decided on a dedicated device for my Mavic, back then. Would much rather black than white & gold.

  • There is a new Redmi Note 5 rumoured to be announced soon. Disappointing to see they are most likely sticking with the SD 625, which is a great processor, however newer and improved processors have been released by QC such as the SD 630, which would've been nice to see on a device replacing the current generation

    If you will be live streaming from your mavic to your phone consider the Xiaomi mi max 1 or 2 for a bigger screen and bigger battery life 4100 mAh vs 5300 mAh / 5.5" vs 6.4" but more pricey but imho the extra costs are worth it.

    And I think the note 4x didn't have quick charging but don't quote me on that one not 100% sure.

    • Oh shit. That battery life, that's what I want!

      Is there any reason why I shouldn't have just bought this?…

      • Save some money and buy from this deal instead.

        Roughly $250 AUD.

        I am just praying/waiting for a rep to maybe add some more incentives.

        I think the lowest price has been something like $162 USD or $212 AUD so keep that in mind if the buy is not time sensitive.

  • I paid $240 a few months ago for that same phone.
