Last year, Xiaomi surprised us with its smartphone My 4, Android mobile which came to sell more than 5 million units, thanks to its high quality at reasonable prices. And even though I just introduce the Mi 5, the Chinese brand has not wanted to say goodbye to the previous range.
So now we present the I 4S, device that has been completely renovated in its physical and interior appearance, still betting on very tight prices.
Xiaomi Mi 4S: High quality at a reduced price
This is what the Xiaomi Mi 4s brings us. Design and display
El Xiaomi Mi 4S It comes with a 5-inch IPS LCD capacitive screen, 16M colors, with Full HD resolution 1080 x 1920 pixels (~441 ppi pixels per inch). Although it retains the aesthetic air of its predecessor, it now offers us a much cleaner and more attractive appearance. And it has also managed to be a little lighter, weighing only 133 grams. The front or selfie camera is 5 MP, focal aperture f/2.0, the main or rear camera is 13 MP, focal aperture f/2.0, dual-LED flash.
Power and performance
The Xiaomi Mi 4S has a Qualcomm Snapdragon 808 processor Dual-core 1.8 GHz ARM Cortex-A57 & quad-core 1.44 GHz ARM Cortex-A53. In addition, it has 3GB LPDDR3 dual-channel, so you don't have lag problems.
As for internal storage, we can enjoy 16 or 64 GB depending on the version of the smartphone that we buy, which is more than enough for regular use. External memory can be added via micro SD card up to 128 GB. Another of the improvements that we find in the Mi 4s with respect to the previous model is its battery, which grows up to 3.260 mAh non-removable, although the dimensions and weight of the phone have been reduced.
In terms of software, it comes standard with the Xiaomi layer called MIUI, specifically the latest version which is MIUI 7, based on android 6 marshmallow.
Connectivity and sensors
Like most mid-high range smartphones today, the Xiaomi Mi 4S has 4G connectivity, to be able to access faster networks.
Also has fingerprint sensor, something that is becoming an obligation for the android mobiles who aspire to conquer the most demanding. And like any device worth its salt today, it also has outputs from USB Type C, thing that the Galaxy S7 does not count.
It is a Dual SIM phone (Micro-SIM/Nano-SIM, dual stand-by) with bluetooth 4.1, infrared port, FM radio,
Availability and price
The most expensive model of the Xiaomi Mi 4S will cost 1699 yuan, about 235 Euros and it is expected that the cheapest version will be around 200. Of course, despite having been presented at the MWC 2016 in Barcelona, in principle it will only go on sale in China and it will be difficult to find it in these parts. You always have to resort to online stores like gearbest, among others, to bring it imported.
