Over the past few days, three models of smartphones have been the objects of analysis and comparisons of most tech sites: iPhone 6, Galaxy S6 and the newly introduced LG G4. Of course it justified, after all we are talking about the flagship of Apple, Samsung and LG, three of the largest market makers. But the American site re / code decided to leave the square and sent one of its analysts, Walt Mossberg, to China to test the darling of Xiaomi: IM Note , and he really liked what he saw <. /> p>
“After testing it, I think he has the kind of quality and beauty that makes it a rival worthy for the latest models of Apple and Samsung -.. but for much less money “, Mossberg said
It starts at about $ 370 for the 16 gigabyte model, approximately half than the iPhone 6, plus costs in the US, with the same memory. A second version, with 64GB, costs about $ 450, about $ 300 less than the full price in the US Galaxy S6 with the same amount of memory. “It’s thinner, lighter, shorter and narrower than the highly successful iPhone 6 Plus Apple, but with a 5.7-inch display compared to 5.5-inch larger version of the iPhone, too good battery life, a very good and decent camera software. “ says the developer Re-Code.
But what is really important is that the Xiaomi Mi Note is tangible proof that Chinese companies consumer technology can make very good products. This means that they represent enormous potential challenge to all Western companies that have for many years seen China as mainly a place to manufacture and then sell products designed elsewhere.
Although Apple’s sales are growing in China, with a increase of 71% in the latest quarter, Samsung has been down there for a variety of Chinese mobile phone makers, and the Xiaomi claims to have been a leading manufacturer of smartphones in China last year, up from Apple, Samsung and LG and came assume at times the position of third largest manufacturer in the world.
“The Mi Note is beautiful, like something I would expect to see from Apple. It is a big screen flagship, with a brilliant 5.7-inch screen installed in an aluminum frame with curved Gorilla Glass on the front and back. The overall effect is elegant and comfortable to hold, for a great phone. “
Because of the Chinese government’s censorship and other restrictions, the Mi Note of Mossberg did not come equipped with Google’s application standard set including the Google Play Store, even though an Android phone. “I could only download and test many familiar applications to North American users, since it departed the mainland”
In tests Walt Mossberg reports that the Xiaomi Mi Note was fast, fluid and easy to use. The Xiaomi interface is clean, unlike Samsung, avoids the addition of many extra features only pollute the device. The user interface has interesting features such as a “read mode” that reduces the backlight brightness and can be used in all applications, or just you select. There is also the possibility of realigning the icons of apps and eliminate unused space on the screen for just shake the device three times.
The curved glass of the Xiaomi Mi Note gave him a stylish look. Like the iPhone 6 Plus there is a feature that lets you use the device with one hand. The battery and took the hit, even though it was made several voice calls, streaming video, text messages and access various social networks, battery power lasted more than 01 days. The camera had excellent performance, pictures and videos with clarity and vivid colors, the control of various camera features are hidden in a sliding panel for the picture screen does not get polluted. As in the iPhone 6 , the Mi Note offers optical image stabilization, but unlike the iPhone 6 Plus, the camera is flush with the housing smartphone.
Mossberg points two points negative in Xiaomi Mi Note:. the existence of two browsers at the interface, which causes some confusion, and the speed limit via Wi-Fi which was below the iPhone 6
In an overview, the Mi Note the Xiaomi, can be considered a impressionate smartphone or come to the international market with a pricing strategy that practices in China, will give a lot of headaches for Apple, Samsung and LG. In Brazil, the Xiaomi already approved by Anatel, the Redmi Note 4G model that has a 5.5 inch screen, but with more modest setting. We are hoping for the Xiaomi start soon to operate in Brazil and will soon bring the great Mi Note
