Branded by many as “The Chinese Apple”, Xiaomi has adopted many of its rival’s tactics with great success.
The Xiaomi Mi4 looks almost exactly like an iPhone 5 or iPhone 5S, and despite the flagrant plagiarism on show, the Mi4 is arguably one of the best Android devices of 2014.
It manages to combine incredible power with impeccable build quality and excellent software, and all for around N64,000 (320 USD) for the 16GB model and N80,000 (400 USD) for the 32GB model.
Some of its key features are: Snapdragon 801, 2.5GHz; 5-inch 1080p screen; Adreno 330 GPU; 3GB RAM; 13MP, f1.8 camera
