Sounds interesting, I will check it out! I know that China has some seriously epic phones for the price I just haven't looked too much into that market. Thanks for the info and I will for sure try to become more knowledgeable about the phone industry!

For $200 today: Moto G

For $200 some time later this year(not quite sure): Zenphone 2. This will be a beast of a phone, especially for its price. Once it gets released, the Moto G/Nexus5/OnePlus One won't make any sense.

 

If you have a decent phone now, I would hold out for the Zenphone.

Xiaomi makes excellent devices. By the way, what carrier are you on, and up to what network speeds do you get on your Redmi Note? (Like 2G/EDGE, 3G/HSPA/HSPA+, etc.)

ZenPhone for sure.

Should easily squash pretty much everything else. I have no idea how they managed to keep the price so low.

I can only assume Intel is selling their chips for less to gain some market penetration.
