Last August, Xiaomi has made official its Redmi Note 4 which is the first smartphone to have MIUI 8 to boot. Along with it come a Helio X20 processor and a 5.5-inch Full HD display encased in a metal unibody. Let's take a look a closer look at this budget but capable handset in today's hands-on.

Redmi Note 4 配备了 5.5 英寸显示屏,覆盖全高清分辨率面板。它拥有相当纤薄的边框,并采用了三个电容按钮,分别是:最近的应用、主页和返回键。值得高兴的是,这些按钮带背光,即使在黑暗中也不必猜测该按哪里。
上方是用于通话的扬声器,两侧分别是传感器和前置500万像素摄像头。

把它翻转过来,你会熟悉到它金属一体成型的机身,手感光滑,同时散发出视觉上优雅的气质。你会注意到背板被两条天线带分割,这有助于更好的信号接收。下半部分则是Xiaomi的品牌标识。

指纹扫描仪旁边是配备 f/2.0 光圈、相位检测自动对焦以及双 LED 灯的 1300 万像素主摄像头。指纹扫描仪拥有光亮的轮廓,能够明显突出该区域。

在右侧是您在 Redmi Note 4 上唯一能看到的实体按钮。这里我们看到音量键位于电源/锁定键上方。从这个角度,还能看到这款手机的倒角边缘。

Meanwhile, the opposite side houses the SIM card slots with a hybrid setup. You may choose to use two SIM cards or sacrifice the second slot for additional storage via microSD.

Up top, we have three circles that look like they're lined up according to size. The biggest one is the 3.5mm audio jack, the middle is an IR blaster for controlling appliances, and the smallest is the pinhole for the microphone.

The Redmi Note 4 still rocks a microUSB port situated under it. There are holes on both sides that appear to be speaker grilles but that's just half the truth since the right side are the only ones that throw sound.

There are currently two models of the Note 4 -- the 2GB/16GB variant and the 3GB/64GB tandem. We have the latter which carries 3GB of RAM and a spacious 64GB of storage. From that, 55.72GB is available for use which still a lot. Browsing through its MIUI 8 is so far smooth and lag-free. This particular OS has unique features like Dual Apps and Quick Ball so we'll be sure to try those out during our time with it.
