This is a fantastic device! I've had HTC Desire A8181 and Samsung Galaxy S3 before. Both are not anywhere near in abilities and ease of use.
MIUI is awesome. Surprisingly to me, because Samsung and HTC both taught me that vendors put tons of bloatware you will never use in a device. I can't remember bloatware in this one. And you can actually delete programs you don't want. Except for Gmail (I use Google Inbox, so Gmail is excessive).
Battery life is extremely long. After whole day of navigating with Google Maps (and using Internet in the process), talking on the phone, then some youtube in the evening, it might still have ~30% of charge left. And it charges to 100% in 1 hour. I'm so pleased and amazed with this I want to squeal in joy.
And paired with Xiaomi MiBand 2 is becomes even more awesome. Highly recommended to have this pair.
And then I remember how much I paid for this device... And I want to scream "Thank you Xiaomi for this wonderful present!"

Good hardware but flaky software. Falls over and system apps randomly stop working or hang requiring reboot. Also full of ads and pesters for email, phone number etcetera, as well as non-standard Android apps which are hard to replace with Google's.
As Xiaomi have not (contrary to the Linux GPL) released the source code for their version of the kernel, developers can't port alternative and better versions of Android than Xiaomi's MIUI.
For that reason the Xiaomi Mi 5 or a OnePlus phone would have been a better choice for me.

Impressive except the glass protection and LCD display where the OnePlus3T is superior but more expensive. I would love to have a camera spec like here on my next phone.

There is no a spare display provided by Xiaomi. If you broke the display you would throw the phone away.

Love it! Best phone I've had. No regrets, best value for money. Only wish it was water-resistant.
