Xiaomi (pronounced 'show-mee') is one of China's biggest phone manufacturers, though they have have yet to make a huge impact outside of the Asian marketplace. If the build quality of their latest flagship device is any indicator, that may all be about to change--and soon. The Xiaomi Mi 3 launched in China late last year and then saw individual launches in Taiwan, Singapore, Malaysia, Philippines and India in the months that followed. The device has been overwhelmingly well-received by users and critics alike, and why not? The Mi 3 has a beautiful aluminum body to go along with its generous 5-inch display, which is covered in Corning Gorilla Glass 3, and it retails for just $270 off-contract. The only downside appears to be lack of 4G LTE support, but if 3G speeds are all you need, the Mi 3 might be for you.
