The Xiaomi team also answers some of the more pressing questions about the Mi 4i, like the reason behind lack of a microSD slot which was removed due to there being no space on the phone to place it. Barra has also confirmed that might be considering a 64GB model for the Mi 4i but this depends a lot on sales and popularity of the larger 16GB model. As for the Snapdragon 615 chipset overheating, Xiaomi says it’s not an issue due to the one in the Mi 4i being the second production generation of that model.
