It's not bad. I might try and see if I can get one on eBay because the price is good.

The level of ripping off really is quite astonishing here 😀

But I gotta say the tablet looks great. I'm wondering whether Apple would do well to make a real '5C' mini themselves?

I would like to see more 5C DNA in Apple products. I think the 5C looks and feels better than the iPhone 5/5S.

So the jump in price between 16 gb storage and 64 gb is, what, $32?
Man, with Apple it's $200. 🙁

China appears to have top notch photo copiers........

That's Android for ya', though....

This is the first device to be announced to use the brand new Nvidia Tegra K1 chip, will be very interesting to see the performance of the chip, 64bit too which again is a first for Android.

So because some on here are under the impression this tablet copies the shape of an iPad and then the colours of an iPhone, you have claimed it transpires into Android copying...

Erm, no, it has NOTHING to do with Android, it is the manufacture you should be directing your comment to, NOT the entirety of a mobile device operating system and platform.

My guess is it's utter trash but then again I'm just basing that off pricing and what past Chinese knockoffs have delivered. I am kind of interested to see what the Tegra K1 can do.

It's hard to say, but they do seem to price their kit at incredibly cheap prices, almost Google Nexus pricing but they don't have the financial backing I guess that Google does to allow a decent product?

I did see another tablet of theirs which had a desktop that was a rip off iOS7's icon designs and colours, so they aren't very imaginative.

Xiaomi is a huge brand in China (even bigger than Apple there I believe), and undercutting the base model retina iPad mini by $100+ while having the fastest chip and the same retina screen is seriously impressive. I have also heard great things about MIUI so I will have to wait and see 🙂
