Main shortcomings

• Hybrid second SIM/microSD slot limits your options
• Android Marshmallow, still?
• No fast charging so you can't top the 4,100mAh battery in a pinch

Obviously, getting so much phone for so little cash means trade-offs in one department or another. You may learn to work around the hybrid slot, or never really have any issue with it on account of using just one SIM or making do with 32GB of storage.

However, the lack of fast charging could prove to be an issue when the battery is running low and you're pressed for time. Another thing we don't like about the mi 4 is the dated Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow - you can cover it with all the latest MIUI, but it's still practically a 2 year-old OS at its core.

But we'll get to that soon enough. Let's start with a look at the hardware on the next page, and some battery life and display tests thrown in for good measure.
