they only need to keep praying that xiaomi keeps postponing the mi3 supplies
And hope poeple dont hoard these phones like Xiaomi…
moto g is no match to Mi3….
at 13k there isn’t anything to complain about. sure S410 & 2GB ram would have been icing on the cake but that will bump the price to 15k. don’t fix what isn’t broken. modest upgrade at best but no upgrade to the price. hyped, delivered. hope there is a white version this time. looks so much better.
