how reliable the Chinese phones are specially Xiaomi in term of quality control, build quality and durability for long term use? do you guys have any experiences with these phones?

Apparently Xiaomi phones are not that bad, couple of my friends and acquaintances are using these phones and haven't heard any complain except for the battery life of Redmi Note 2 and the initial pain of installing google playstore on these devices. They all have good performance and build quality is decent too, on their price point it is really hard to compete with them really.
xiaomi actually has better build quality than many branded phone company lel. i think you thought xiaomi is rebranded bullcrap like walton and symphony and micromax. you. thought. wrong.
Xiaomi is complete bullcrap . I am currently using the MI4 and it's very bad. No lollipop update for this phone while lower tier phones like mi4i have lollipop. Phone gets hot easily while playing games. The heat is unbearable. Getting this chinese crap was one of the worst decisions of my life. Never buying Xiaomi again.
PM me your offers. Don't say I didn't warn you.

My mom's HTC one M8 has the same chipset and doesn't get unbearably hot like the mi4 . Chinese phones are cheap because they have ¤¤¤¤ build quality.
when there is official cyanogenmod 12.1 then why dont you try that. i guess your experiance with the phone will change and other than the heating issue did you face any reliability issue.
here is the link for CM 12.1 http://forum.xda-developers.com/mi-4...1-mi4-t3165625

Currently using redmi note 2 prime. Everything is great except the battery. Battery is average but it supports fast charge.Also the charger they gives is a fast charger. So it won't be a big deal.
Problem with google playstore & other google services can be fixed with international Stable Rom installation.
