The thing about Xiaomi products is that they are hard to come by. Some would take their chances at eBay while others would wait on them on some global retailer site.

The bottom line is that nothing is certain and that everything is left to chance. That would now exclude however one global retailer, Gear Best, which is reportedly offering the Xiaomi Mi 4i on their end.

At Gear Best, customers can choose between the white and black Xiaomi Mi 4i. The unit is unlocked and can be used worldwide, all for just $223.69 that includes free shipping. With a deal like that, many are bound to try and get one, even the ones who plan on reselling if for their local regions.

The Xiaomi Mi 4i is a neat midrange device which many are looking for. The device comes with impressive features that may even take it out of the midrange bracket.

Among the features the Xiaomi Mi 4i has to offer include a 5-inch full HD IPS display (1080x1920 pixels) and a Snapdragon 615 chipset. It also comes with 2GB of RAM, an octa-core processor (1.7 GHz), and 16GB of internal storage.

Supporting features include a 13MP main camera and a front-facing 5MP camera, a 3,120 mAh battery and something that runs on Android 5.0.2 Lollipop. The device is actually something that comes in different colors (black, white, gray, yellow and blue) but as far as Gear Best is concerned, only the black and yellow colored ones are available.

For those who are aware, the Xiami Mi 4i does have some overheating when 3D games are being played. A software patch has already been released to address the problem (V6.5.4.0 LXIMICD build), a fix that addresses the thermal control algorithm to prevent overheating.

Eventual users who are unaware and who could come across the said issue may do well to download and apply that fix.

All that aside, folks who have been planning to get the Xiaomi Mi 4i can check it out at Gear Best right now.
