This cellphone is a bit heavy comparing with today standards, weighting 5.26 ounces. This device is offerred in many color options: purple, orange, green, blue, red, white and gray.

Xiaomi ships this phone with a Qualcomm Snapdragon S3 MSM8260 system chip, holding a very powerful Dual-Core processor clocking at 1.7 GHz with only 1 GB of RAM memory which is a bit low for a cellphone of this quality.

This cellphone features two cameras, an 8 mega-pixels back-facing camera and a 2 MP front-facing camera. It can also film videos up to 1920x1080 (Full HD) at 30 frames per second. The camera also has flash.

This cellphone uses a 1930 mAh medium sized Li-Ion replaceable battery, which is not really enough for a thirsty device like this.

This phone offers wifi connectivity (which can be provided to other devices around, as a mobile hotspot) and 3G fast internet connection, using HSDPA, HSUPA and EDGE technologies. This cellphone works with a SIM card for GSM services.

The Xiaomi Mi-1s also features a few useful features such as Bluetooth (provides communication with other phones and accessories) and GPS (Global Positioning System), and multiple sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer and Compass.
