there's nothing new

nothing gimmicky*

Xiaomi's the only one consistently putting out new stuff

now's a good time to buy a meme fan

that's worth buying

and innovating in new fields and releasing new products

where is the rest of china adoing

yeah because that happens every day right

inb4 no innovations today... sad

~~trying to survive in their polluted post apocalyptic hellhole~~

eh, just chinese things I guess

shenzhen?

is a nice place

then you see the yellow river

brr

@Tribit which one is the new meme since the original one isnt being sold anymore?

Alright, called Eastlink, and Telus/Fido, I guess Xiaomeme phones are supported, at least

The Redmi 5

@Julian Original is still sold

you can buy it here

redmi 5 is such a good looking well designed phone

xiaomi did good

isnt that a big markup though?

It comes with a 18650 battery

the battery's huge

I ordered the storm version from them (2016/2017) by asking them to swap it out

you could ask if they have the 2018 that @transience posted recently

and swap it out for that

worth it though

@Jignx I've noticed. It went from good deals to Amazon discount with slow shipping

are there any major differences?

between different years, or is it just cosmetic

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xXMSIiExJzg guy in vid says that compared to its older version, its air pressure is slightly weaker but the overall air volume is increased

@Deleted User I have the Storm version and it blows quite hard

@Tribit do you need to charge the battery for the fan separately or is there a usb port of sorts?

it has a micro sd jack and cable

so you can use it to charge 18650 batteries too

so its a 18650 charger with a fan on top?

neat
