  I wouldn't touch Elephone after my previous experiences. Random hardware issues, poor software support. Spend a little more and go Xiaomi.

    I agree with you on Elephone it severely lack quality and software support, however, I had less issues and bugs with it than I have bugs, issues and problems with my Xiaomi redmi note 2. And I already hate the guts of MIUI in general.

      Here is a thing about super-hyped Chinese phones - you are expected to flash a ROM to make them work properly and you need to do it mostly by yourself(For Xiaomi, to unlock the bootloader, you need to wait a permission from Xiaomi for weeks, yes WEEKS). Hell, many of them don't even have Google Play Store out of a box because of the Chinese government regulations. It may be a good toy for tech savvy persons, but probably not for an average Australian.

      For this reason, I usually don't purchase a Chinese phone, unless it runs stock or near stock Android. .

        True, not my case though. I flashed unlocked bootloader and tried a nu,ber of official and custom firmwares, and there's always a bunch of issues and dumb MIUI "optimisations". It's just a wrong place to get me started on all this…

        @abm77: It is not your fault. MIUI is notorious for being heavy and buggy. You are not the only one who have ever had those problems. I'd rather wait until Xiaomi actually launch a phone in either USA or Australia. Until then, as I said, I'd rather stick with Chinese phones that run stock android. Much hassle free.

        Agreed again mate. I just wish I wasn't been bought by all that hype with xiaomi. Stock android much better. I'll try though a MIUI 8, wich was announced today and if I still will be unhappy with it I will flash AOSP and be done with it. Hardware in XRN2 is actually not bad for the price.

        @abm77: Yeah, I agree, hardware-wise, you get more bang for the buck with Xiaomi. Built quality isn't rubbish either. It is just software which makes the whole thing useless. If I was in the market for a phone under $200, I'd buy refurbished HTC M7, Galaxy S4 or Sony Xperia Z1 which can be found on Ebay and Aliexpress.

    I can say the same for xiaomi. Although my only phone was the note 3. But after all the headaches and issues I had with it, I'll never buy another xiaomi phone again.

  If you buy one of these phones I would suggest doing some research and using a different OS.
  They normally come with some infected software

    This is one of common problems that I have found with Chinese phones & tablets. Manufacturers ship their phones & tablets with some pre-installed malware and infected apps. I mean are they aware selling phones and tablets with infected apps actually damages their reputation overall?
