El celular junto a un forro de silicona en la tienda tenía el precio de 342.51 USD o HBD. Pagué con la aplicación de cashea una inicial del 40%, ya que estoy en el nivel 5 de 137 USD o HBD en moneda de curso legal venezolana. Quedé pagando tres cuotas de 68.50 USD o HBD, cada quince días. Por cierto, que la última vence el 6 de diciembre. Yo soy de las personas que adquiere cosas a crédito útiles e inteligentes. Tener conocimientos financieros ayuda mucho. No se trata de comprar un equipo para que sea un pasivo; sino para que produzca.

Luego de pagar en la tienda decidí desempaquetar el teléfono en una cafetería que estaba frente a ella en el centro comercial Sambil llamada: Zootea. Hice una reseña de esa cafetería que puedes leer aquí.

La caja del equipo era minimalista. Simple, elegante y muy estética. Además, destaca tres elementos importantes: La marca Xiaomi, el nombre del celular y su fotografía de como se ve en la realidad. Al abrirla estaba el celular en una bolsa que tenía las particularidades del celular, luego del teléfono había una caja donde se encontraba un forro, la llave de la tarjeta SIM, instrucciones y políticas de seguridad. Tomé algunas fotografías de eso.

Debo destacar que compré un forro adicional de color azul; porqué no me convence nunca los forros que traen los equipos. Son muy sensibles, les dejo algunas fotos del forro, como lo desempaqué y como se ve en el teléfono. El forro de silicona salió en 5 USD, o HBD.

En la parte final de la caja se encontraba el cargador, y el cable USB tipo c. Esto es un aspecto importante; ya que los celulares Samsung y IPhone ya no traen los cargadores. Es algo notable que éste teléfono lo tuviera.

Elegí adquirir el celular de color negro porque es la tonalidad más elegante y la que más se adapta a mis gustos. Aunque para trabajo siempre elijo los equipos de color negro y blancos. Son tonalidades neutras. Lastimosamente; quería el forro del mismo color; pero no había. El único disponible era el de tono azul.

El peso del teléfono es maravilloso; aunque yo no lo voy a utilizar, me encantó que no pesara tanto. El teléfono posee una estética muy atractiva y elegante. Debo destacar ése aspecto. Igualmente, desde que lo compré funciona perfectamente. La persona que está trabajando con nosotros siente que es un buen equipo. Es lo ideal, después de todo ella lo utiliza. Objetivamente, es un equipo que puedo recomendar para uso personal y si es laboral debe ser a corto o mediano plazo.

Usar cashea para ésta compra fue genial porqué me permite visualizar que he usado la App muy bien. La idea es hacer que el sistema de cuotas me permita acceder a cosas realmente útiles y que sean una inversión tangible. Me gustaría leer en los comentarios que te parece el celular y sobre como usas cashea si estas en Venezuela.

ENGLISH VERSION (click here!)

It's been a long time since I've written here in Geek Zone, and the most amazing thing is how time has passed so fast. So many things have changed. I bought this cell phone more than a month ago with the purpose of having a new operator join our work team. The idea is to try to lighten and distribute the responsibilities proportionally. We incorporated a close, trustworthy and hard-working person into the team.

Obviously, I acquired the equipment in one of the stores that accept cashea (the installment shopping app and one of the most relevant Fintech startups in Venezuela). In the Sambil mall, there is an authorized Xiaomi store, and it accepts installment payments with cashea. I wanted to buy a Samsung cell phone, as I am a loyal consumer of this brand. However, there was no store that accepted cashea payments to purchase it.

I thought about going to the Damascus store, but the products there are very expensive. Although I did not fully agree with the acquisition of this brand of cell phone for work, it was the most advisable thing to do for the moment. We are not to be picky, ha, ha, ha, ha.

In the store there were Xiaomi and Redmi products. I opted to choose the one with more storage capacity and processor. After all, the cell phone would only use four applications, but obviously the Screenshots are the ones that take up more space.

Some of the features that led me to choose the phone were that it has an ultra sharp 200 MP camera (although we will not use it for photos; it is an important aspect), the Display is 120 Hz FHD and AMOLED, the charging is 67 w turbo with 5000 mAh battery, the processor is a MediaTek Helio G99-Ultra, and it is 8 G of RAM and 256 GB of storage. This allows it to really be fast and can meet the goals we have in the short term until 2025.

The cell phone along with a silicone liner in the store was priced at 342.51 USD or HBD. I paid with the cashea app a 40% down payment since I am at level 5 of 137 USD or HBD in Venezuelan legal tender. I paid three installments of 68.50 USD or HBD, every fifteen days. By the way, the last installment is due on December 6. I am one of those people who buys useful and smart things on credit. Being financially savvy helps a lot. It's not about buying equipment to be a liability; it's about buying equipment to produce.

After paying at the store, I decided to unpack the phone in a coffee shop that was in front of it in the Sambil mall called: Zootea. I did a review of that coffee shop, which you can read here.

The equipment box was minimalist. Simple, elegant and very aesthetic. In addition, it highlights three important elements: the Xiaomi brand, the name of the cell phone, and its picture of how it looks in reality. When I opened it, there was the cell phone in a bag that had the particulars of the cell phone. After the phone there was a box where there was a liner, the SIM card key, instructions and security policies. I took some pictures of that.

I must point out that I bought an additional blue liner because I am never convinced by the liners that come with the devices. They are very sensitive; I leave some pictures of the lining as I unpacked it, and how it looks on the phone. The silicone lining cost 5 USD, or HBD.

At the end of the box was the charger, and the USB-C cable. This is an important aspect; since Samsung and IPhone cell phones no longer come with chargers. It is something remarkable that this phone had it.

I chose to buy the black cell phone because it is the most elegant color and the one that best suits my tastes. Although for work I always choose the black and white devices. They are neutral shades. Unfortunately, I wanted the lining in the same color, but there was none. The only one available was the blue one.

The weight of the phone is wonderful; even though I won't be using it, I loved that it doesn't weigh that much. The phone has a very attractive and elegant aesthetic. I must emphasize that aspect. Also, since I bought it, it has been working perfectly. The person who is working with us feels that it is a good piece of equipment. It's ideal; after all, she uses it. Objectively, it is a device that I can recommend for personal use, and if it is for work, it should be in the short or medium term.

Using cashea for this purchase was great because it allows me to visualize that I have used the App very well. The idea is to make the installment system allow me to access really useful things that are a tangible investment. I would like to read in the comments what you think of the cell phone and how you use cashea if you are in Venezuela.
