Xiaomi Mi4C review

The Xiaomi Mi4C is the latest smartphone from the Chinese company, packing in a 5-inch screen and plenty of impressive specs. Is it good enough to make the grade though? We tried one to find out.

Despite not having an official presence in the west, Chinese firm Xiaomi has nevertheless become a big name in tech circles, thanks partly to its high-quality hardware and software, and partly due to its love of copying the work of Apple - the latter...

On the downside, there's no NFC or fingerprint scanner, so the Mi4C won't be able to join in with the contactless payment party which is due to begin when Google launches Android Pay next year. It's also worth noting that although resellers like...

While the Xiaomi isn't the perfect device - no NFC is a real shame, especially as mobile payments are likely to explode in 2016 - the fact that it costs around £150 is nothing short of amazing. Compared to devices in its price range, the Mi4C is a...

Xiaomi Mi 4c Review

By now, you've probably heard of Xiaomi – the Chinese company, which is in the habit of selling smartphones with some pretty powerful hardware at unbelievably low prices — in eastern Asia, at least. Indeed, trying to get your hands on one of these...

Likable design, solid build ; A price-to-value ratio that is hard to overlook ; Very good camera for the price ; Appealing user interface

MIUI often kills all push notifications ; A lot of Chinese bloatware and region-specific functions ; Battery life could be better ; Slight, constant delay with its response

The Xiaomi Mi 4c has certainly earned its number of praises – it's sleek and elegant, its user interface looks great, it packs some pretty respectable hardware, and has a very good camera, all for a price-tag of $240, sans shipping and tax. However,...

Xiaomi Mi4c review: the half-price Nexus 5X

The Xiaomi Mi4c is now available, with a specs sheet that's very much like the Nexus 5X 's, at half the price. In many ways, it's the phone we all wanted the 2015 Nexus to be. I spent a few days getting to know the Mi4C, putting it through its paces...

Great Full HD screen ; Very responsive software ; Latest version of Lollipop ; Well-finished design ; Useful additional features ; Solid picture quality ; Infrared to control the TV ; USB Type C ; Good battery

Non-removable battery ; No microSD slot ; Slippery in the hand ; No Google Play Store (but it can be added) ; Not officially available in the US ; Weak speaker

You might not expect to get top-tier Android experience in a device that costs less than US$250. But don't discount the Xiaomi Mi4c on account of its price, because you would be missing out on one of the best budget phones of the year. With a specs...
