Xiaomi launched the Mi Max last month and the first sale will begin today at 2PM. This is a big handset as the name says, sporting a 6.44 inch screen with FHD resolution. It is powered by snapdragon 650 / 652 processor and price starts from Rs. 14,999.
Key highlight about this smartphone is a powerful processor, dual SIM (hybrid slot) with 4G LTE and VoLTE support, finger print sensor, 16MP camera, 3GB RAM and 4850 mAh non-removable battery. Check the review to get an idea about the performance.
It is a very good handset and the only criteria when making a choice will be the size. Will you be comfortable using this big handset, specially carrying it around? though it is light weight and slim, and will fit in most pockets.
Mi Max comes in two big flavors, the one with the Rs. 14,999 price tag is using Snapdragon 650 hexa core with 3GB RAM/32GB ROM and the Max with Rs. 19,999 price tag comes packed with Snapdragon 652 octa core with 4GB RAM and 128GB ROM.
Xiaomi Mi Max will be available on Mi.com and other online stores – Flipkart and Amazon.
My Mi Max is shipped today..
I wonder why they post such weird timings…
1. The order was unprocessed till 11th July 7.00 pm but it shows they processed the same on 6th July 3.11 pm
2. It shows product was shipped on 12th July 7.40 pm but actual tracking shows that it was picked up by Blue Dart on 13th July 2.46 pm
why such wrong info, I’m just worried as the shipment is from Bangalore to Mumbai…
Hi Gogi,
I have placed order for MI Max on 6th July Sale. Usually they ship products fast, however for max they have not even processed it since a week. Order status remains as payment received. I spoke to Mi customer care for several times they are telling copy paste answers. There is some major issue. they are not able to deliver our products (may be they put sale before the stock came). Can u speak to them? can you help me in this?
Mine is also same case. 6th july payment made, there after not a single information about the shipment. Today their customercare says it will take another 4-5 days to deliver the shipment! because of heavy response from the customer! i am planning to cancel the order. This looks like complete failure of their marketing people.
Dont cancel. I consulted with xiaomi people. they say 13 july orders will be in queue. so they might take longer than us.
Xiaomi Phones also available on Paytm – https://paytm.com/@mi?src=1&q=xiaomi
Do not buy any redmi phone because their service center are worst they took your phone and hold you more than 1.5 months i am facing the same . I you want to buy then buy 2 phones one for use and 2nd for spare part.Shame on u Xiomi.
from yesterday. 7th July.
Mi3 & Mi4 getting marshmallow update. Added alot of new features including ios like shortcut icon. Ram usage also decreased significantly. Good work Xiaomi.
when ???
I sent e-mail to Xiaomi to confirm the SAR value of mi max indian version. But in reply they sent me the mail stating there is no official information with us regarding the sar value of xiaomi mi max. This is the formal mail they have sent me. Gogi Bro then how in india they are allowed to sell this mi max ??. Haven’t Indian authorities checked whether the sar value is below our indian limits or not ? ?.
gogi sir any info of redmi note 3 next sale
you can buy from mi.com
Its available.. Go fetch
yaar 2gb ram version(silver colour) available nhi hai vo chahiye
Bro, it’s available in Amazon. Just placed order for Redmi Note 3, 32gb (gold) version after lots of research… It will be delivered on 11-July…
@Sanjay, thanks bro
A new 2gb/16gb variant of Mi max has been launched in China.
Got 1 from mi app….
Tried other one from browser after 10 secs……..gone out of stock……
Only one variant 32 gb is available for sale..
Lets see the real world performance from user reviews.
Got one too through Mi website waiting to experience it too
has anybody bought this in MI site? I have not seen Buy now page at all from 1.55pm to till …..
Got one 32 gb but confused for camera issue
Why camera of my friend Redmi 2 is way way better than my Redmi Note 3 but im not a camera lover though,i sold my rn3 2gb ram 1 month 28 days used for 8500 yesterday and ordered Le 2 waiting for delivery.
Dude, you have made a big mistake i have all of these phones for my family using all these personally- buy Redmi.note 3 for overall usage. Buy Le 2 for looks and clda.. Buy honor 5c for camera or buy m3 note for design. le 1s camera is even better than Le2 you will know after using it. PErsonal experience
Buy a samsung if you are too much focused on the camera
I bought Le 2 only for gaming so i can hook it with my hdmi tv through Mhl with amkette bluetooth controller, as LeEco has replied me that it does support mhl but flipkart did not mention it in description.
Mhl sounds like a really cool feature to me. I didn’t know about mhl and about its usage. I think i should even try it once.Thanks for the info.
Thats why i like this website so much, a lot of info to get. 🙂
Like the Newly launched Tata Nano car. This new big concept phone has to prove in market not its functionality but its handyness and portability. This can happen by YouTube reviewers. This gets decided by consumers who own to use it and give their impression s and feedback s
Not interested in a device with such a poor camera , shame u mi
When can we see a good 5″ phone?
There are so many good 5 incher. Moto g4 play coming with 5″ under 9k this summer. Already imported to India from USA.
I already know this. There are already lots of phone with similar specs available but i am look for something killer like redmi note3 at compact size.
too big to handle, will be falling from hand so many times for sure. so avoid. 5.5 inch is OK
Will Mi max & Redmi note 3 get miui8 or not?
Any idea.
mi max — never to buy this big junk.
Don’t worry about MIUI8. It’s already released for you to download and install it manually. but it will be available in OTA later in August. I tested the same in my Mi3, it’s super smooth and faster as compared to MIUI 6 and 7 and it’s in Marshmallow. Since Mi3 is getting it then there is no doubt about others not getting it.
yes they r….
Yes they will get nd almost all xiaomi phones will get miui 8 but do note that its just miui update not OS updates like lolipop to mashmellow. For more info check their official forums
Whats the point of update when they did not provide android update which is more important,i think LeEco will release android nougat vulkan graphics for latest phones since they running marsmallow.
@lambha48 – you are wrong. xiaomi provide most of their snapdragon phones with latest android version. I have xiaomi mi3 and i received miui7.5 which is around 850mb and its based on android 6 marshmallow. Now am waiting for miui8 although miui7.5 has most of the features if miui8 and its super smooth. Note-Only their mediatek phones are left behind because they dont provide source codes
Tiktak infact you are wrong dude.
Xiaomi is poor in providing OS update. If u dont believe it check their official site forum nd user talks. Nd im using redmi 2 since itz launched but it is still on kitkat. They juz focus on flagship high range mobiles and im not saying miui is bad but they should at least give os updates too
@ronak oh sorry. My mi3 got the android M (directly from kitkat) update with miui 7.5. So i thought they updated most of their snapdragon phones to android M. Redmi 2 might get android M with miui 8 maybe?
@vineetv
not only redmi note 3 and mi max even older devices like redmi 2 will also get miui 8 don’t worry even i am sure note 3 and mi max will get miui 9 too.
Wanted to buy the top-end variant but its close to OP3 !! So much confusion and as MIUI8 is full of features , it will be not too much for 3GB ram to ork in future!!! Oh man!! Hopefully a NEXUS saves me!!
is the sale only for 3 gb with 32 gb of storage or its also for 4 gb of ram and 128 gb of memory ?
On mi site both are mentioned, I doubt if they will have 128GB ROM version made available today.
3rd class camera for indoor and night
Yes, you are right.
Today’s smartphone identity is a best camera and battery life (min. 2 days), because following features are common for all smartphones:
–4G
–Dual sim
–Quad – Octa core processor
–HD display with scratch resistance
–Lollypop or marshmallow
Flash sale ? But in last article you have written open sale ?
Sorry it is open sale, one can directly buy, if in stock.
Thanks for confirming sir . Already registered yesterday on mi india website. Hope to get one today at 2 ☺
Today is the Flash Sale only on mi.com @ 2pm. from 13th it will be open sale on all platforms such as mi.com, amazon.in, flipkart,snapdeal,tata cliq & paytm.
Still the big question is SAR value.
Gogi, can you confirm it by talking to xiaomi officials?
Yes rightly said bro. Please Gogi bro or some body pl. Confirm the SAR value of mi max.
Its very very very important.
