2-minute Review [Positives]	Good build quality, and design - feels quite nice in the hand Fingerprint scanner is reasonably quick Good all-day battery life	Top-notch build quality The polished all-metal back of the Redmi 4 makes this phone look more premium than its predecessor (and actually more similar to the more expensive Redmi Note 4) Compact, and quite usable with just one hand - fits well in the hand Fingerprint sensor works well, and is conveniently located Nice 5-inch HD (720x1280) IPS display with 2.5D curved-edge glass - bright, sharp, and with decent viewing angles Xiaomi's MIUI skin is one of the more refined Android UIs - it is clean, polished, and has a bunch of added functionality - Dual Apps, Quick Ball, One-handed mode, Child Mode, Second Space Decent overall performance - on par with those of other phones powered by the Snapdragon 430 series processor Good video playback performance Nice attention to detail overall - such as a protective ring around the camera lens Decent rear camera - a definite improvement over the Redmi 3S - is quick at focusing, and images are fairly detailed and sharp Video recording at 720p and 1080p is decent too Decent front camera - pictures taken in good light have a good amount of detail and decent colour tone Decent call quality Good audio quality Excellent battery life - with moderate use, lasts up to 2 days - there are also power saving modes to help squeeze more life out of each charge
2-minute Review [Negatives]	Slightly washed out display Meizu's custom UI is not the most refined Performance is ok but falls behind competing phones from the likes of Xiaomi Tends to get warm too, when put under some stress Average camera, again falling behind competing phones like those of Xiaomi Battery is slow to recharge No FM Radio	Camera performance is improved, but ordinary low-light shots and slow processing in HDR mode still leave something to be desired The hybrid dual-SIM, combined with a limited 16GB of storage means that if you need both the Dual SIM functionality, as well as a memory card, you will be left with no option
