So, finally it got delivered. Congrats bro.. And it seems they're still shipping with that white sticker in the backside. Believe me, its a big pain in the (u kno whre) to remove it!!
Few useful advice from me, after using 3 xiaomi phones for over 1 and half years:
1. Never install any custom launcher. miui default launcher is much much better than any random launcher. You may
take 2-3 days to get used to the ui, but once you do, trust me, you'll just love it!!
2. Most important. Change from stable rom to global dev rom. Trust me, its as stable as stable rom, if not more. In
addition, you get many new features every week. Moreover, if any small bug does occur, in stable rom, they take
more than a month to fix it, but dev rom is very quick, as you get new features every friday via 30-40MB OTA
update(Stable rom waits for few new features to accumulate, before releasing them together, as about 1 GB update
every month). Also, dev is android 6, while stable still 5.1

http://en.miui.com/download-301.html502 Bad Gateway (bottom one). Procedure to install: Download the file, and remember
where you saved the file. Now go to updater> wait for 3 dots to appear in top right>click on the dots>choose update
package>select the file you downloaded. Confirm all prompts, and wait for about 4-5 minutes.
3. Go to settings>about phone>tap miui version repeatedly until dev options enabled.
Now go to additional settings>Developer Options>set window animation scale, transition animation scale and
animator duration scale to 0.5 from 1. Then set memory optimisation to off(because miui will do it on its own, if you
leave it as it is, your minimized apps will restart when you switch to them).
4. If you get any problem, go to
Xiaomi MIUI Official Forum or pm me.
Now, the beast is uncaged!!!!
