Its great, but certainly, not the best. albeit close.

Phone owned for less than a month

Might be Cheap, but leaves nothing essential and excess behind, and isnt a cheap phone by any means. for $225 No other phone could go close, its old, but gold, 2 years old, ready for another 2. although design shows no originality whatsoever, its fine though. better than most phone design out there, it might be plastic, but oh boy fantastic, and battery is neither good nor bad, but i really recommend you get a powerbank, oh, never heard of em before? its godsend.

Awesome phone.

Phone owned for less than 3 months

I've had this phone for 3 months, and I haven't had any problems with it so far.

For the money I got it (300 dollars), it is the best phone you can get for the money, in my opinion.

Plus, with MIUI installed on it, it has a bunch of features loaded up on it.

I absolutely recommend getting it.

Beats the S5 when it comes to speed

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Overall my favorite phone to use. Yeah, there's the lack of LTE, or 4G for that matter, but the H and H+ load pages up quickly, picture intensive sites quickly, and small downloads I may need (on average 30 megabytes) download at a very good rate (this is using it on the T-Mobile network). Performance, it beats the S5. How does a Snapdragon 800 devour an 801? I have read many reviews indicating the fact that the best processor doesn't always make it the fastest thing out there, and in this case, it is very true. I have owned all types of crazy devices, and when we compare the Galaxy Relay to the Galaxy S3, both have the same processor, but the S3 is still faster. An HTC One S puts its Sprint brother, the HTC Evo 4G LTE to shame, and both also have tidentical processors and specs.The Xiaomi Mi3 proves just that. Perhaps its the fact that the CPU/GPU don't need to be throttled, where as the S5 does due to its plastic build. Camera is great for taking pictures, but it needed more settings like Slow Motion and changing the resolution output (or the Megapixel size). The fast motion is interesting, but in most occasions, you want to slow moments down, not zip right through them. HDR doesn't seem to help at all in any picture. Sound. Lets talk about sounds. The speaker is pretty loud and doesn't sound cheap or low quality, but when held sideways, it is EXTREMELY easy to cover. I have to play certain games while removing my palms from the speaker. Display quality is very outstanding, but mine came with a kink out of the box, and developed one in a short amount of time. I have a stuck pixel on the bottom right. Not too visible, and oddly it only appears in certain tones of grey, but barely any high end device I have owned has given me this issue (lets not include the Galaxy series as AMOLED is more prone to screen burns, but have never seen a dead/stuck pixel on it). DoI recommend it? If you can get your hands on it, DEFINITELY BUY IT.

Cost Efficient Phone

Phone owned for less than a month

A great quality for an economical phone. The phone is far from comparison against others within its price range. MIUI is a smooth and fast OS. The camera which I use most of the time to harness my artistry in photography. The macroshot is the best that i have seen so far. The quality is almost comparable to the bulky, hardly-manageable DSLR. Would love to recommend this phone to my family and friends. Hoping to buy Mi4 soon!

Bang for the buck, but don't exaggerate things

Phone owned for less than a month

For me, this seems to challenge a lot of Nexus and Motorola phones priced for decent specs. But there's no flagship phone that exists without compromises, and the Xiaomi Mi 3 is not an exception to that. Its UI, despite being smooth, needs to erase some lag. Its native apps, like the stock browser, has some bugs to squish yet. But Xiaomi updates its phones with frequent intervals, so I assume this would be cured in a month or so.

Despite its compromises, there are a lot of things to praise the Mi 3 for. Its glamorous display, sufficient battery life, processor that can handle graphic-intensive games without a sweat and a lot of native apps that are very functional for the end user.

Overall, you can live with its compromises without being annoyed, as its pros definitely outweigh the cons, so it is certainly a bang for the buck.

One awesome phone

Phone owned for less than 3 months

Ever wanted a phone that was extremely fast, has the most beautiful display you have ever seen AND doesn't keep you tied to a charger? This is that phone. This phone has one of the highest scores in Antutu. It's no wonder as the SnapDragon 800 processor runs at 2.3Ghz. The screen is gorgeous and the 3050 mah battery lasts me TWO FULL DAYS between charges.

It's amazing processing speed, screen-level One HTC, sony camera sensor very good, sound quality is standard Cruising speed is better than my HTC One, is a unique and everyday phone, highly customizable and zero freezing screen.
