No way still no micro sd card better to buy branded phones rather than suffer from unknown Chinese brands I meant I am doubtful of their services.

      u can change Miui for stock but sincerely Miui is more refined and has lots of themes well designed.

      The price is dropping because they need space to Mi4, maybe came out on 20 july.

      In some markets Mi3 and G2 costs more or less the same (Europe), Mi3 has some advantages in software and chassis.

Is it actual 'quad core - snapdragon 800 - LG G2/Nexus 5 smooth' or a 'substranded Chinese maker-smooth'. Don't get me wrong, I'm just clarifying these in detail. Also, Any idea of when the 64GB variant will be released in India? Thanks alot :)

                      AnonD-274516, 08 Jul 2014I'm asking you this since you're already using it, can you ... moreThere are way too many PROs and you can find them in any number of reviews spread out across internet. So, I would mention just the CONs (to be true, there are HARDLY ANY):
                      1. Limited Storage (16GB)
                      2. No 4G/LTE
                      3. Can't be used Single-Handedly.

                      Apart from these, there are NO CONs with this Phone. It is the BEST BUY in >USD 240 category. The OS (MIUI) has MANY nifty features, functionalities. The UI is very iOS like but you can change that with a Launcher from Play Store.

                      Bottomline: There are NO PROBLEMs/ISSUEs with the Performance/Quality/Reliability/Price of this Phone. This is the best you can get for such a price.
