I was all up for installing the ROM on my personal phone until, however this not being an official update GPS isn’t currently supported, neither are OTA updates the FM radio and the ROM can’t show network speed in the status bar, however it does offer support for OPENGL ES 3.0 which should prove for a silky smooth experience.

For those of you who are more adventurous than I am you can download the stock Android 4.3ROM for the Xiaomi Mi2 and Mi2S along with GAPPS from the MIUI forum here.
