Dual sim is my requirement.
The above models were my choice.
i) HTC desire 820 - Features are good but its very huge i cant carry/keep it in my pocket.
ii) Sony xperia M4 Aqua - Was waiting for this around two months. specs are good but these people keep delaying things and it will come up with more than 20k i believe.
iii) Samsung - Tired of seeing this brand itself.
iv) Xiaomi MI 4i - All my requirements are available in this phone. so finally landed with this. Hope this would give good sense of usage.

    I feel worthy buying this phone bcoz i use moto e now which has got 4 gb internal memory with 1 gb ram and sd card slot is available where i have only 4 gb. My requirement is dual sim with few apps with good speed and battery. I feel this has got all my requirement and price is also not very high. Its reasonable and i dont think memory card slot is essential for my usage. I have already registered for it with flipkart and i gonna buy this one today.
    Used many phones, From the beginning i never unsatisfied with the mobiles i purchased. Hope this one also will be the same.

        As per the specifications for Xiaomi Mi 4i in India Website:::

        http://www.mi.com/in/mi4i/specs/

        This phone does NOT support 3G Band for 900MHz and 4G Band-20 for 800MHz. These bands were recently acquired by Indian Telecom companies in March-2015 spectrum auction.

        Recently Idea telecom operator started 3G in Delhi or Mumbai using 900Mhz band and other operators are planning the same.

              Many Europe networks use 900 mhz 3G,especialy outside big cities,so it is better to order MI4.

                      Xiaomi explains why Mi 4i lacks memory card
                      slot and its argument is convincing.
                      Yesterday we talked about one missing feature in
                      the Xiaomi Mi 4i. It lacks a slot for microSD card
                      and hence you can't add more storage to it.
                      While it will not be an issue for most people,
                      some users have already voiced their concerns
                      at the lack of microSD card slot in the Mi 4i.
                      However, Xiaomi has now explained that a
                      microSD card slot is not part of the Mi 4i
                      because there are some good reasons to do
                      away with it. Hugo Barra, vice president for
                      international at Xiaomi, says there are several
                      reasons why the Mi 4i lacks a microSD card. We
                      have seen companies defend product decisions
                      even when they don't make sense. But in this
                      case it is different. Xiaomi's argument is solid
                      and the reasons why its latest phone lacks
                      microSD card slot do seem genuine.
                      So what are these reasons? Here is what Xiaomi
                      told us:
                      -- MicroSD card requires a large motherboard (25
                      per cent larger in the case of the Mi 4i because
                      its motherboard is already very slim) and a
                      significant redesign of the device that leads to
                      considerably larger form factor.
                      -- If Xiaomi had put a microSD card slot in the Mi
                      4i, it couldn't have put a bigger (over 3000mAh
                      battery) in it without increasing the thickness of
                      the phone.
                      -- Xiaomi says that SD cards can significantly
                      slow down system performance and lead to apps
                      crashing. In fact, according to company's
                      surveys it has found that SD cards are a
                      significant cause of device failures (up to 30 per
                      cent of customer support complaints) due to the
                      poor quality of SD cards in the market, many of
                      which are actually fake.
                      These are valid reasons. Also, these are the
                      same reasons why most of the high-end phones
                      nowadays don't come with a microSD card slot.
                      But what about consumers that require more
                      space. To start with, Xiaomi believes that 16GB
                      in the Mi 4i is going to be enough for consumers
                      even if they want to carry full-length movies in
                      the phone. But in case, users need more space,
                      according to Xiaomi, they can use Mi Cloud
                      feature that allows users to automatically save
                      full-resolution photos in the cloud.
                      And finally...
                      Xiaomi says that it will sell the Mi 4i with more
                      internal memory (most likely 32GB and possibly
                      64GB) in the coming months in India for users

                                Its my dream budget phone specs but with only 16GB memory we can't live in 2015.
                                12.77GB user avaiable is very low.
                                ,if it upgrades to 32GB I would definitely buy the phone.

                                    Why is everyone so worried that there is no SD card slot in these days everyone has access to cloud storage for free. Also, lets not forget the Mi4i supports usb-on-the-go so you can transfer data seamlessly anytime you want.
                                    I would agree that its more convenient having a SD card slot but that's fine, I don't think its a big problem. 12GB of user available space is plenty for apps + few movies & music.
