It also has a 80 degree wide angle sensor, and f/1.8 aperture, which is great for taking selfies even in low light conditions.
In addition, the Mi 4i sports some of the usual features including Bluetooth 4.1, dual-SIM capabilities that can support dual 3G or 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 ac, GPS, and Android 5.0 Lollipop out of the box skinned by Xiaomi's MIUI 6.

Announced earlier this year, the Mi 4i was aimed at the international market that did not get the chance to buy the Mi4 last year, as well as some of the more powerful Xiaomi phones that were launched in January. However, based on rumors, the upcoming Xiaomi Mi5 flagship should make its way to markets outside of China right away after launch.
