Shop.GizChina.Com are offering the 32GB, flagship Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime shipped from Europe for just $219.99.
Yes, there are more affordable options for buying a Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime but those options include buying from China and the worry of customs getting hold of your phone before you do. Then the cost of import duty, and the fact you will have to ship the phone back to China to have it repaired if the need arises.
Gizchina News of the week
Buying the Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 from shop.gizchina.com means shipping form the European warehouse, super fast delivery and easy service, repair and customer service!
The phone itself is pretty damn stunning too! Featuring a powerful Mediatek Helio X10 64bit chipset, 2GB RAM, 32GB internal memory, 5.5-inch 1920 x 1080 display, dual SIM support and room for an SD card.
Also the store is offering a free screen cover and leather look flip case with every Redmi Note 2 Prime order.
Nope it was a false spec I think before the release. It’s the only fact that’s holding me to buy this.
I think there is no big deal to go from the advanced to prime version if it’s only the +0.2Ghz that matters. The 16GB to 32G is not a big deal cause the phone
supports micro SD
Difference is the amount of build in memory and the speed of the processor. RAM is the same.
ist there difference in gpu speed. some info says prime has gpu clocked at 700Mhz vs 550Mhz on regular. do you know if that’s true?
Will you review it Andi?
(Is there a way to get around the new “big picture” home page? Now it needs a lot of scrolling at least on my laptop. …and I see a lot of redundant links.)
Pity it doesn’t have 4G 800/900. You pretty much need those in the Netherlands (and I suppose in other European countries as well?), next to 1800/2600.
How is the gps on this phone
Not saying it won’t work. From what I read, the lower 800/900 give better reception indoors than 1800/2600. Here in The Netherlands every provider uses a combination of low (800 or 900) + hi (1800 or 2600).
