    Ibuygou unreasonable? Poor service?

    So I'm new here and you can take this how you want to, but I think that it's not worth the hassle. Twenty five bucks isn't much, and really you probably could've bought it a little cheaper from another site. I'm a cheapskate and this was just my opinion:)

    Yeah, your right I'm in a lot of wifi areas throughout the day, it just would be nice to be able to receive emails and things when not in wifi. But for now I'm sure it will work just fine.

    The only problem is that I'm on a family plan with at&t, so I only pay $15 for this non-smartphone now. So I just thought that if I was accessing data the main person paying the bill would see an increase on the monthly statement. I suppose I could just get a SIM through that provider that is...

    I know the provider, I'm just not sure if the provider I use will try to charge me for data usage with this new phone. The SIM that I plan on switching to the Xiaomi isn't on a data plan, so I wonder if they'll be able to tell that i'm consuming data?

    Just found out that the SIM has nothing to do with the data network. Sorry for the stupid question.

    :cool: What about the data plans though? If it doesn't say 2g or 3g does that mean then that that SIM card is not going to allow me access to those data networks? That's what I was assuming it mean't.

    I was looking at these plans and none of them say 2g or 3g except for the most expensive one, isn't that going to mean that I can't access their 2g & 3g network if I go the cheaper route? Also, they said that I would have to go into the local store to get the phone setup, is that going to...

    Question, there is an option to have a root firmware install. Should I trust them to do this, or is this something that I could just do on my own?

    Thanks for the links RobinHood! I've only had bad luck with Ebay, so I think I'll go with merimobiles as that works out to a nice price even after shipping. Ibuygou seems to have all the accessories though. I can't wait to get the phone!! there is so much customization that can be done...

    Thanks, there are so many to choose from. I was going to go with spellmall or geekbuying, but I will definitely check these two out.

    I agree, now the only step left is determining what site to buy from. The more reputable sites seem to be a little more expensive, but it's probably wise to pay a little more for a trust worthy site.

    I'm used to a smaller phone, so I think that it will fit me well. I initially was going to jump right into the Mi3, but after watching one particular video it just seemed to look so large, but I thought I was going to lose something in the way of processor speed with the Mi2. After doing some...

    I shouldn't have said "starter phone" it will just be my first from outside the U.S. market. I'm with you on the size and performance of the Mi2, it seems to a perfect fit.

    Your totally right, I just was thinking if I was going to pay almost $400 for the mi2s 32g I should just get the 3, but I don't know how I feel about the design of the 3. I figured the Mi2s was a great starter phone, and it appears that Xiaomi might change the design some what with the Mi3s...

    The camera issue has been the only thing that I have came across in terms of differences, but I think with the amount of music that I will want to store the 32g might be the wiser choice.

    I'm seeing the 16g for $267 + tax & 32g is $352. Not a huge difference, but after you factor in shipping it raises the overall cost. Like I said though I could just be being a cheapskate about. I'll probably need the space for all my music.
