If you are looking for a new Android phone in the budget bracket, Big C has a relatively new release which gets rave reviews everywhere.

The dual SIM (4G/3G) Xiaomi M1 A2 Lite is priced on special at TBH4,394, which is about TBH500 cheaper than the best on Lazada, TBH1800 below the normal Big C price, and a few dollars cheaper than if you import from China.

https://www.techadvisor.co.uk/review/bu ... e-3682640/

It is showing as locked to AIS (hence the cheap price), however there is no lock in place on either SIM. I bought one today after testing with AIS + True Move H SIMs, swapping them around into the opposite SIM holder, and then just with True Move. Everything works hunky-dory.

Has all the Thai bands, and fine for international - not sure about US, check first. One of the biggest attractions is that it has the latest Android 9 Pie + Android 1, which gives it a nearly pure Android experience, and means the phone will get OS updates directly from Android for at least another 2 years. :D

I had an xiaomi smart phone a year ago and can say i thought it was terrible, the back camera packed up almost straight away, the phone kept on freezing and the battery life was dreadful. They may have improved since then but id be careful when buying these and compared to the quality of a Samsung its night n day.

My Xiaomi Mi Max 2 has excellent battery life , no problems at all for more than a year now. My wife's Samsung J7 has had many problems, short battery life, but better wifi connection. YMMV...

In Thailand warranty for phone -including camera- is one year. Have you got a new phone or old one repaired? Battery warranty is only 6 months.

Battery life is interesting, must be something related to User Interface. First two weeks I had to charge every day, now only every third day. So phone did adjust something during my 1st two weeks use and now it shows 66% after 19 hours use. Still good for today and tomorrow I have to charge.

We used to have Samsung phones, still two J7 and one J6Plus in house, but now Xiaomi seems to be our phone. Redmi Note 4 and Redmi Note 6 Pro.

Ps. Did you verify your phone? They have plenty of bad copies of MI and Xiaomi sold also in Thailand. Price is about 1000 thb cheaper than real one. Quality really different. Same applies to Samsung also.

For all: it is easy to check Xiaomi phone at shop. If you are getting earphones, phone is a copy. Original phone does not have earphones included to package. Most of the copies do. Authorized dealer usually bundles earphones to deal.

For us, I hope some other does not know, could you explain difference? Pangasius is catfish and quite soft. How about pollock?

Like I have been making fish soup with Sea Perch (instead of Pike Perch, medium), Plaa Nin (instead of Perch, hard) and Sole of pangasius (instead of Common Whitefish, soft). How you could describe pollock? I know that I can smoke it, but need also to know type of the fish.

I feel cod is better than pangasius, but pollock is new to me. Did live in Finland and we did have different kind of fish there.

Just like to know before rushing to Makro...
