What is the reason that Xiaomi phones don't have a dedicated SD card slot? Surely they have the technical ability to do that? I had two Xiaomi phones, both were OK but I dislike the effort to manage the storage.

Amazing phone. Served me well for 3 years but now that the updates have stopped it has started randomly turning off and doing old-phone-stuff... Might have to switch soon.

Worst customer service in india.
Authorised service centres don't know to find root cause of the issue.
For new mobiles they say fluid issue hence not covered in warranty
For mobiles out of warranty ( after 1 YEAR) , they tell its a mother board issue and need to replace mother board

anonymous, 06 Feb 2019hows the battery life & is it worth getting in 2019?I hardly get 4 hours of screen time. The battery drainage is very fast after miui 10 update. And also miui 10.2.2.0 was the last update for this beauty. Feeling sad for this. All things working good accept the battery performance.

anonymous, 06 Feb 2019hows the battery life & is it worth getting in 2019?I am using Mi5 for a very long time now (> 2 years), dropped it many times, very durable, but only cracked a little at sides but working fine as well. If battery life is your priority, I WOULD NOT RECOMMEND this phone to you. 3000 is too small to even stay for more than 1 day. If you are using mobile data out there, it is going to drain even more faster. However, the chipset is Snapdragon 820 (high end) with good graphics card. This phone is suitable for above average gaming. This phone is very cheap now considering the day since this phone is announced. You should update your budget for better phone like Mi8. Bigger battery with better camera plus chipset with full screen. I hope this review helps you. Good luck!

Please help me out.
Network signals have been fluctuating. Sim1 signal would come full while sim2 goes off. Suddenly, SIM 2 will come full while sim1 goes off. Suddenly again, the two Sims will go off and come full within some seconds.
I inserted my Sims into another phone and they have full signal.
Nobody on same network complains of signal lost.
I can't make call for complete 2minutes without signal lost. I can't browse.
I've tried different settings through *#*#4636#*#* but no success.
Please kindly help me.
