Anyone up for Xiaomi 2S at the moment? After going through the specs, I think the upgrades are somewhat minor unless the new Snapdragon CPU is a lot faster compared to the one currently in Xiaomi 2.

Good to hear that. I will download the latest version and check it out.

If I am upgrading from MIUI V4, do I need to go through any extra steps when upgrading to this version?

The Gapps link is not for Xiaomi Mi-2?

I am still on version 3.2.22 but on the verge of upgrading to V5. Is V5 stable enough for daily usage and operations? I am using my Xiaomi 2 as the primary contact for my business so I can't afford for crippling issues that will affect me. Anyone on V5 care to comment and advise?

Opps. Sorry, the font made it looked like I meant Mi-1S. I meant that I got 2 sets of Mi-1 and 2 sets of Mi-2.

I bought all my Xiaomi Mi-1s and Mi-2s from an AliExpress seller. I paid around US$440 each for 2 sets of Mi-2 32GB inclusive of shipping. There are many fakes on AliExpress so I just went back to the seller that sold me my Mi-1. Now, my mother benefits as I gave my Xiaomi Mi-1 to her. Anyone...

Update for my AliExpress seller. I got 2 sets of Mi-1s and 2 sets of Mi-2s from this seller. http://www.aliexpress.com/store/405007

Damn... Xiaomi decided to go back on the reasoning that asian hands cannot operate a big phone with one hand.

On the contrary, MIUI source code has already been open source for a while now.

MIUI is based on CyanogenMod in the first place. Portions of its code is from CyanogenMod.

Fake products based on prominent brands in China is fairly common. It is always good to be careful and do some research before making a purchase.

I bought mine from AliExpress (http://www.aliexpress.com/store/405007). Bought 2 sets of Xiaomi and an Android tablet from the seller so far.

I am hoping that the 2nd wave on 19 Nov will have better performance. A yellowish tint doesn't go down well with me.

Yes, it is advisable to avoid something that sounds and look too good to be true. It is likely that those people saw a fantastic price and went for it. I have always been buying from the same AliExpress seller whom I bought 2 sets of Xiaomi and a Yuandao N70 Dual Core HD recently. There are many...

I was thinking there is not much difference from the Xiaomi release last year. Demand outstrips supply by a lot. When supply is slow, hype is created. Personally, I am still looking forward to Xiaomi 2. For now, I still got my Xiaomi for daily use.

That's when you follows the rules. I am purchasing from outside China. Do you think I won't buy 2 units using 2 addresses? I believe the AliExpress sellers will know what to do. How do you think they are selling multiple units then?

The first wave consists of only 50k units and was sold out under 3 minutes. The 2nd wave will be going on sale in mid-Nov with 250k units. I hope I can get the 2 units I need then.

You can't get this in Singapore. Xiaomi sells directly through their website to the China market. You will have to go through an agent from AliExpress or some other websites.

I am not saying I will be getting it right away. I am just registering interest with the AliExpress seller that I trust. Of course, once he got stock, he will inform me.
