Faboulous Smartphone by Xiaomi.. thanks

No Screen protection… It’s the deal breaker for me. i’m a rough user ,for the past three years i had changed touch screen 3 times (for canvas 2 and yuphoria ). and from the pictures it’s seems like all the foue edges are of plastic ???, not metal… someone give clarification. and it will take 3 hours to charge( i can’t wait 3 hours). For these three reasons my mind tends to go with le 1s. off-course design is also one reason. I don’t play many heavy games. But I like to play asphalt 8. I hope it can be played well in le 1s?. now after 10% cashback I can get le 1s at 9900, it’s a good deal for me , can I go with it.
I bought my both phones based on your review, Gogi and I’m completely happy with that. Please help me for my third phone.
waiting for suggestions……….
sanjay
As per company its says 50% in 1 hour and 100% in 3 hour. I am pretty sure it will be more than 3 hour. In gadget to use they check fast charging its note supported. And no screen protection mentioned in site and SAR value also still unknown.
Ronak
Oh bro! Replacing screen is too much costlier. My bro’s moto g screen cost me 4500/ and after that he bought zenfone 2 laser it also dropped on floor and costs 5500 / in screen replacement..bro. Even if gorilla glass its not shatterproof(( moto force is costs50000 apx) hmmm u need to use better tempered glass or bumper case.
And what u said is right about note3, many said same and ryt now in. Looks n design wise CNC crafted full metal body crown goes to Letv 1s…its cons r. Lesser battery than note3 but has quick charging support wid type c charger. And not so good camera ((updates will b provided to improve)) but many reviewers told note 3 camera also not up to mark. So if u r not heavy gamer the stylish dashing beautiful le eco is best choice now.
Arun
Thanks Ronak, I’m looking to go with Le 1s.
Sanjay
by mistake I wrote karan.. I hv to write ronak..
I found ronak is more into technology.. he goes all reviews and sites..
@karan : we are not stopping u to buy.. it’s upto u. don’t behave like kid.. Luke kid do
if u say them adorable aeroplane they will say u r wrong.. a is for Apple..
Ronak
Leave them brother. They don’t care about others care views Nd comments…do U know many Chinese reviews had voted Letv 1 is best mobile. Which is not launched in India, instead of we got letv 1s, though it is better in many terms but audio n camera r far better in letv 1 than letv 1s and one more thing Hugo said they don’t have plan to launch redmi 3 in India now. It will spoil redmi note 3 sale, I am asking how? Redmi 3 will cost approx 7500 or 7000 and note is 9999, its major difference, they should launch redmi 3 quickly. What u think?
sanjay
Hi ronak u r right.. 2 year back i am big fan of xioami.. But how they treated indian is not good…They launch which are outdated products in china bascially 16Gb model.. u ll easily found discount on mi4i nd mi4 16GB.. but never on 64 Gb model.. they never again launch 32 Gb model mi4i.
If u right Redmi 3 is best in budget 7000/- If they really waant to capture market they have been launch redmi 3.
They never update to latest andriod.. i ma using redmi note still on kitkat..
All all buyers who is buying redmi note 3 asked Mi india to give gurantee update to andriod M.. else by 2018 u ll be still on lollipop..
amole
Lol!!!!! See where you have headed the whole conversation. I talked about App2SD feature, and you people have concluded that Xiaomi phones are bad!!! And now are saying LETV 1s is best!!!!
Hats off to your thinking!!!
I must be a real idiot to have argued with you so far. As KaranRaj said, never argue with an idiot, still I argued. Nobody else has said anything to you and have just ignored you, so even I should have ignored you at first place.
KaranRaj
amole bro ab bas karo.
I am sure when Gogi sir’s review of Redmi Note 3 comes up, saying that this is the best phone you can buy, it will silence all the idiot critics like these two jerks.
Fir ye log apna muh chhupane k layakn\ nahi rahenge.
Till tat time, ignore them.
Ronak
I think U r too much frustrated and cant digest others comments.i clearly said Letv One (le 1) not Le 1s…read comments properly. Le 1 has good camera and hi fi audio, many china blogger rated it better over letv 1s so don’t jump nd run here nd there before understanding what I am saying and xiaomi fones r good i never said they r bad but thy r not best infact its applicable for all companies…and by the,way many Indian reviewers said in look wise n premiumness @11 k letv1s still holds crown lol…now dun point a gun to me being a neutral analyst and why U getting hyper this much lol seems redmi note 3 is made by you lol.
Ronak
Yup.yesterday I went on miui forum.they said miui 7.2 is on the way.one user asked if it is M or L.??? No moderator has answerd him ha ha so i believe its in kitkat still for redmi 2 nd redmi note(1st) models.even they suspended some models update for timebeing nd said there are major bugs in uodate..so i ask if there updates r causing bugs then why they r making it nd why not leave kitkat nd try l or M. On XDA forum U can find Kumajaya developer ..he brutaly challanged miui developers for cheating in updates
sanjay
End argument @ RONAk with Both amole and karan thinks Redmi 3 is god of mobile .No mobile can challenge this..
@ karan : u r big time s*****.. @ amole u r right u r idiot: is bit impatient don’t have time to read before reply ….Try to help people.. who want software updates , maybe u can live with android lollipop till 2018 while others are using Android N.
I am just helping buyer who want regular Software updates android( dont buy) If u are Ok with android L its fine..
I am expecting no comment from u 2 guys… Who think Redmi note 3 is GOD of mobile ( with android L(outdated) , hybrid sim slot , no fast charging(check reviews), Avg camera, no gorilla glass )
Hope Gogi Also mention this cons.. and a slap in your face then..
Jeetu A
I don’t know why you did not get review unit from Xiaomi when others got it, in fact people are watching reviews on other sites / youtube and commenting here, that is the popularity of gogi.in, strange the company is not noticing this.
Ronak
Yeah I also agree with u. while many has hands on done and also getting review unit why gogi didn’t?
Srinivas Murthy G R
Probably because Gogi’s reviews are really unbiased and based on facts, MI is not willing to take a risk before sales start. Not confident about their product?
amole
There have been plenty of reviews out there globally. People have bought the Redmi Note 3 Pro model from china directly with their own money, plenty have said its the best phone out there.
Gogi bro has, in his all reviews of Xiaomi phones, said that their phones are very good for the price and given excellent ratings. I don’t see any reason why he will say this phone is bad.
deep thinker
OK so this phone can run high end games …that’s it??
deep thinker
Right if you want to play games on a decent laptop or computer there are way may many games for PC than android…and yes you can even play android games on PC if you like with blue stacks.
Manideep
I have been following all your comments! U r too pessimistic my friend! You are such a type of person who will critisize every possible thing about a decent smartphone manufacturer! If u so want premium products go for apple my friend, nobody is stopping you! But u know xiaomi too provides smartphones of top notch quality! But please if u don’t like this product, let it be, u do have to comment a number of times regarding the unworthiness of this redmi note 3!
deep thinker
Thank you for following all my comments critics helps in making everything better. 😉
deep thinker
And actually my point was that so much hype is useless, cause we don’t need specs we want quality, now understand.
amole
Xiaomi gives best quality, there is no denying that. About the specs, 15 years ago, pc with 800mhz speed, 128mb ram, 10gb hdd was enough, but will you use such pc now? Take example of latest games, they need faster processors, more ram. We will be seeing more & more games and apps in future which will be more resource hungry. And not just processing power, latest mobile cpus support more bands like global 4g, volte, which is latest technology. Its better to invest in latest technology.
Ronak
Exactly!!! We r demanding in software updates part too.ex.motor Samsung Sony gives few updates. I mean kitkat to lollipop Nd lollipop to marshmallow. They don’t keep creating updates in given rom.what xiaomi doing is they keep giving updates n updates fixing small small bugs.they sud work hard nd try to solve bugsls in 1 or 2 updates..i have updated my redmi 2 6.0.0.0 to 7.1.1.1 almost 4 times and os version is still kitkat can u guys undrstanding what im saying?? I got moto g also it gve updates which they ol promised.never gven updates of useless apps adding n all…in fact sometimees after updating redmi 2.it starts going problems..
Ronak
Investing in latest technology isn’t so smart choice ( many of my friends so happy with apple 4s, 5s and moto devices.they r buying it still if they get cheap deal). Quality always matters and so is hardware utilization. A proper OS version with good stable rom on sufficient hardware can make u feel buttery smooth experience ( vivo xshot, one plus one, moto g n 4s,5s? ) And if these goes wrong disaster happens.
Ex….all yuphoria and world’s, best yutopia lol Daal me jab tak tadka ache se nahi lagta daal achi nahi banti…..lol
Shibu
I sold my Le 1s. Now time to grab RN3.
amole
Why some people want App2SD feature and depend on sdcard so much? Internal memory speed is 150MB/s read and 55MB/s write, while class 10 microsd card gives speed of 30MB/s read and 24MB/s write.
Since the performance is also far better than class 10 card, then definitely its cost will also be high and hence price difference in higher memory capacity models. I think it’s worth it.
For other multimedia features, you can use USB OTG pendrives, which we get for 500rs 16gb these days.
sanjay
Gamer freaks need App to SD……. mostly game come with 2Gb , 3 Gb .. minimum is 1. Gb like asphalt 8.. batman game 3 Gb approx.. If user want to install 10 High end games. ( approx he need 18 Gb). They need app2sd…
@amole : different ppl have diff requirements…….
like le tv 1 s i didnt buy because no FM.. i like FM……..
Mi phones are bad never support app2Sd until u root and install some third party applications
amole
Don’t agree with you. People who install 10 high end games (really?) in their phones should rightly be called as freaks. And those freaks can call Mi phones bad, nobody cares.
Really 10 high end games?
True high end gamers will never be in favour of installing their games on microsd card coz they will certainly feel lag, no matter what class sdcard they use. True gamers hate lag, period.
Really? 10 high end games in one single phone?
Ronak
Dude Don’t act like you are the only smart.. OK..Sanjay is right about app2sd feature. And who are you to tell one should install number of games or not. Some games like Batman Asphalt r so big and we want to move data in sd cards and if other mobiles can play decent graphics if it moves in sd card then why not xioami??? Amole get the life and respect others views, don’t b a jerk, god bless you.
amole
Ok so here is a challenge for both of you.
Find a phone which boasts same GRAND specs (by specs I mean everything, processor, ram, camera, battery), plus has beautiful metal body and premium looks, plus has a sdcard slot with app2sd feature as per your requirement, and is priced under 15k.
If no such phone is available right now, you can suggest me if any other manufacturer is thinking about launching such phone in near future.
You can answer after three month as well, no issues.
If 32gb is insufficient for you, then even 64 will be insufficient for you in few days.
I don’t give respect to those real jerks who cringe so much even if a company is giving so so so much for that price.
I will put all my data like pics, videos, etc in either sdcard or a USB OTG pen drive and dedicate all internal 25gb remaining to apps and games. I will still have plenty of space.
32gb is more than enough for majority of us. That will be proved in flash sales. This time, I am sure the phone will be sold out in microseconds.
You, please go find another phone.
sanjay
@Amole: don’t become so hyper.. Don’t comment stupidly according to your requirements……
Suppose my priority is dual sim always on and 64 Gb memory (with SD card or internal )….Redmi note 3 will not be my choice…
Redmi note prime Wins here in 7999/- So its all about why you need…
Don’t compare your priority with other : I listen 30 Gb plus mp3 songs.. its depend on mood which song we want to hear..
amole
I said, look for another phone and if you get such phone then let us all know, was that so hard to understand?
amolemole
There are plentyof phones out there which might not fulfil your requirements, but you just chose the most popular phone these days and come here and cry like a child for what the phone does not have, and call them stupid who argue with you?
KaranRaj
Amole bro, please stop arguing with these two jerks named Sanjay and Ronak. I have not understood what their argument is all about. Moreover they have used abusive language and have insulted you at first place, and they talk about RESPECTING others views.
I have not seen their comments like this in any other phone posts. Seems they are frustrated after already buying other sub-standard phone and have come here to let out their frustration. Stupid people who cant argue in the right manner start to be abusive, and they will keep on getting abusive, so just ignore them.
sanjay
@KARAN : READ ALL THE COMMENTS WHERE i USE AbUSIVE wORD……… IF U DONT FIND ABUSIVE WORD IN MY COMMENT..
@AMOLE ASKING WHT THR NEED TO APP2sd.. I EXPLAING HIM,.. WITH DIFF VIEWS. he frustted with ans,,, he reply blindly and challenge..
u GUyS ARE CRYING AND aCTING LIKE foolS.. TO PROVE redMI NOTE 3 IS BEST…..
amole
These are your lines for me. ‘@Amole: don’t become so hyper.. Don’t comment stupidly.’ These are abusive.
You said that MI phones are bad, why? Just because it does not support app2sd? Do you say the same thing for all the phones which miss out on any feature?
We are not crying to prove Redmi note 3 is best. It is the best phone as of now. Its you who is crying to prove it is not the best phone.
The last and most important thing, I just don’t get the point that why would we degrade the performance of phone by this app2sd? Now, you said you have 30 gb of songs, then where are you going to put game data? Don’t you know the performance will be hampered with more usage of sdcard? Why would we depend on low performing app2sd feature if internal memory is giving best performance?
sanjay
Forget about comments, I am just explaining why we need app2SD. Mi phones are bad because they never release android updates,they release only MIUI update.. which ppl don’t want.. Check their FB pages, there update are always full of bugs.. low battery life/ after update ….
If u buy.. Never update your phone till android 6,7 come by 2018.
I don’t play HD games now, earlier I played so I know how much imp is app2sd.
Note 4G still running kitkat, launched 2 year back in china.
Ronak
Who is saying this phone is not good/?? Where did I said note 3 isn’t a good mobile, read my comments. I own redmi 2 too and moto g. And my bro is using asus zenfone, we play games in our mobiles so we are asking that data to sd card is needed. Whats wrong with u??? Go to doc man.
KaranRaj
You are still using abusive language. From all the conversation here, It is clear now that who needs to visit the doctor. Wrong is with you. You are not able to clarify your point and just insult others here.
amole
And everyone knows that xiaomi gives freedom to root their phones. So root your phone without voiding warranty, install GL to SD app (paid version preferably) and move game data to sd. Problem solved.
Nil
Phone should not be used for playing games as per my opinion. 3 to 4 High end games are fine. I feel like playing high end games install them and feel bore in one week and never play again.
Phone primary function is for communication, including talking, message, social networking, browsing, navigation, shopping,email i would never play 10 high end game all the time, may be 2 games in a day.
Well bottom line is you need to manage space.
Some phone which support app to sd have less space allocated for apps. They eventually fill up fast.
So at the end this phone filled up with many new technology supporting telecommunication, if you want to play game then this is definitely not for you. You can get a tablet or play in computer ?.
amole
Bro, this phone is a beast for gaming, but filling it up with lots of high end games unnecessarily is a terrible idea.
sanjay
If you don’t want to play high end games even 1.3 Ghz quadcore processor launched 2 year back run all the applications, whats the use of powerful GPU.. don’t spend money buy 2 year back processor in range 6K.
@Gogi : Thanks to gogi.. he always showing in game section low end processor lags.. but overall performance is smooth..
Nil
That’s right but we are talking about numbers of game one should install, install game but don’t blame on space which is enough. Also game is not a primary need according to my opinion.
The X8 modem that comes with this chipset is not available in old chipset. It helps in data packets management efficiently without any network drop.
deep thinker
Yes experience triumph specifications.
amolemole
Nobody said we dont want to play high emd games, but filling your phone with just high end games is just too stupid. This phone gives overall great experience, not just games. I repeat again, let us all know if you have any other phone with same specs for the given price.
KaranRaj
I agree with Amole bro. This phone is very powerful and high end games will work like charm, much better than low end phones. But large population will be happy with what Xiaomi is offering.
Xiaomi don’t manufacture phones for lakhon me ek fools who install 10 high end games or have 30 gigs songs, and still want everything from top notch processor and build quality for the price of peanuts.
They produce phones for the masses and their flash sales will tell their success story. So go get low end phone as per your requirement and stay happy and stop abusing and insulting other members here.
Ronak
Bro u will say phone Sud nt b use as camera buy digicamera…phone Sud not b used as music player buy apple iPod..phone Sud not used for movie watching go to cinemaaaa bla bla….cmon dude it’s 2016
KaranRaj
He said the phone should not be used for just single purpose. He did not say for gaming get a gaming device or for camera get a digicamera. Its you who is arguing unnecessarily.
Phone is a multiple use device, and this phone has given enough specs to satisfy all the needs, that too with great great specifications, and the most important thing of all, the affordable price. So get over with it. Stop cringing like a child.
sanjay
@ronak : u rock
amole
And you ask me to respect others views and then call me a jerk, why dont you respect my view and opinion then? What I said is absolutely true.
amole
And even if a phone has so so many things but it misses on some things, then it is just too stupid to call it a bad phone. You people are calling this a bad phone. You are saying xiaomi phones are bad.
There is no phone in the market which will give everything a buyer wants, there never will be such phone. So try and adjust with what you have and stop calling the best phone a bad phone just because it does not have those few things you want.
KaranRaj
Agreed bro, but just try and understand one thing here. You should never argue with an idiot. They will say they are right and will abuse and insult others no matter what.
And just see where the conversation has headed. They are just jumping from one point to another and filling abusive words here and there and have labelled you jerk idiot stupid, go to doctor and what else. So just chillax and ignore these brainless people.
Benny
Stop arguing guys. Redmi Note 3 is the next big thing in the market. As Amole says the first flash sale will prove it. Those who are not happy with it can buy some other shit. Sanjay and Karan stop crying like babies, this is all u can get for now.
sanjay
@karan : dont reply to them…. they support redmi note /… for them no phone is good as this one………
we are not crying we are just saying cons.. so people will choose according to thier requiremnts.
Gogi also review positive and negative things…….i think u will comment gogi how can u give negatve .. Redmi note 3 is GOD for 3 months.
KaranRaj
What? Are you alright? Lol!! I don’t agreee with you at all. I agree with Amole Bro.
You have been calling Xiaomi bad for just one thing, sure you are a moron.
You have even termed the best phones of xiaomi as bad.
And now dragging Gogi bro in this silly argument of yours, lol!!!
Gogi bro has always said in every review of xiaomi phones that how good their phones are.
Now I dont want to argue idiot like you any more.
Ronak
Who is abusive??? See ur comments and my comments…Lol something is burning ha ha..I think u guys think we r hater of xiaomi?? I’m red mi 2 owner my friend own mi 3 so don’t say anything before knowing..ur smile is saying why Sud people install games in mobiles??? mobile and root mobile?Who is he tell us what we Sud do with our mobile.many reviewers do install at least 3 heavy games in mobile while reviewing and also mentioning about data storage location((( check Gogi ‘s all review)) and if the data is stored in internal memory they surely mentioning it …so grow up karan n amole..read comments nd then reply…by d way I’m waiting for mi 5 lol
Ronak
Agreed Bro! I have gone through many Chinese bloggers and Indian sites too, all says it’s not the best phone by xiaomi, even geekyranjeet said phone getting warm while doing heavy stuff, xiaomi claimed heating is less so what that? And in look wise this phone isn’t so eyecatchy said by many bloggers. I’m xiaomi redmi 2 owners @karan n ample(so called gods of mobile phones lol).

Is this a new technology ..just a faster processor …how far can I use this phone 2 years max ..max …and there would be new phones better than this …oh phones better than this would be there in just 3 months +-

I am using Redmi 1s since sep 2014 not any problem
Ram.G
Right. Wait, 3 months down the line, you will still be in the same dilemma, because, may be in a further 3 months better phones will be in the market. Cutting Edge Technology comes at a cost. For common public, VFM is the manthra.
deep thinker
for common public whatsapp is enough…
Shrikant
Build and durability Xiaomi phones are better than Lenovo…
KaranRaj
If you are satisfied with older technology, then why you come here in this blog where we get updates for latest technology? And why do you think that the latest technology is just little bit faster processor and nothing else, hence useless?
Do you even care about all the features of this phone xiaomi has added?
Do you even know the vast difference between the phone launched two years back and the phone that we are getting now? Your comments are like, Maruti bhi car hai, BMW bhi car hai, BMW will run fast that’s it, so BMW is useless, Maruti is best.
deep thinker
Hey gogi what do you think. Do we really need this amount of processing power, a moderate user?
Gogi Rana
Most normal to moderate users will hardly notice any difference, but it always makes sense to invest is new technology.
saurav bhandari
Specification is really good at this price point seriously. I guess its a first phone offering this type of awesome feat. At this price tag.
chandan
Although most people are praising this here….I got this info on another forum…the camera on this phone sucks big time! Redmi 1S has a better camera as per that reviewer
My problems in this
1. Hybrid SIM
2. Bad camera
sanjay
Same asus zenfone 5 camera is better than zenfone 2 series.
hariz
Bro I found one reviewer praising its camera & other saying its average, I think its partially better than le1s’ camera. Just wait gogi bro to review this.
Rahul
Some says its very good
sanjay
Those who are praising earlier they used might Indian brand like lava micromax and intex for them camera is better. Those who shifted from asus, motorolo they can see cons.
amole
Oh, common, camera is definitely not bad. It might not be the best, but its definitely way better than plenty of phones. Just let us know which reviewer has said the camera is BAD. Probably a link to that post.

There are many reviewers out there who are not even able to shoot product images properly with a dslr camera and they are giving verdict about the Note 3 camera quality :-).
