lol WCDMA is 3G GSM standard which uses CDMA Air space ! It will work with GSM https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif !

will Xiaomi release Mi3 32gb/64gb versions too? since it doesn’t have an external memory slot, 16gb is just not good enough for me https://cdn3.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_sad.gif

if not have to wait for the official release of oneplusone 64gb in India (priced at $350)

Will oneplusone make an official entry in India??

Mi3 comes in 16Gb / 64GB variants ! i am hoping they sell 64gb version !! But chances are less !
Regarding OnePlusOne .. Bro let them first sell in US !!! presently their inventory is all over the place !! And from the way they are managing the whole thing its not far from being a fiasco !!
Official OnePlusOne launch in India looks bleak !! Even if it happens it should be quite late !

Thank you! i thought they may have a 32gb too https://cdn1.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_biggrin.gif

64gb version is not listed in Singapore online store, only 16gb is listed and is sold out, why did not they put in the external memory slot, when they can do it with Redmi Note

will they release Redmi Note? (that might be a budget option for around 10K)

Xiaomi also has huge inventory issues !! It might face the same issues here since the demand simply outweighs their supply chain expectations !! Redmi note may be in future not presently ! Only powerbanks and Mi3 for now !!! MiPad is on my wishlist https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

2.3 GHz quad-core Snapdragon 800 (MSM 8974AB) processor

A correction, it comes with Qualcomm MSM8274AB Snapdragon 800.
Also it seems to come with corning gorilla glass though not mentioned in any English site of theirs but translating their official Chinese website shows it.

Only 4000 pieces were available at launch time in Malaysia. In India also, quantity will be less than 20000. It took 17 minutes for the mobile to go OOS in Malaysia

http://www.malaysianwireless.com/2014/05/xiaomi...

Anyway it is a Chinese phone. Please don’t buy it https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

I am not buying because this Chinese phone has a low SAR value of 0.435. I want my phone to have as high SAR value as possible; SAR value should be at least equal to iphone’s SAR value https://cdn2.desidime.com/assets/textile-editor/icon_toungueout.gif

I have made up my mind already. Seems like Xiaomi is not paying Custom/Import Tax to our government, that is the only way i can explain such a low price.
