According to the early reviews on YouTube, there's no option to hide the notch in MIUI, so I doubt you'd be able to in YouTube, I could be wrong though
can we remap assistant button on Chinese version to Google assistant?
wondering does most ppl prefer to crop youtube or any video just for fullscreen experience?
own 18.5:9 phone but most youtube video still 16:9 or new 18:9 (rare).
mi9 already have 19.5:9 screen, i will never crop to make top and bottom video gone just for full screen experience
In the GSM Arena review they play a game, and at either side I don't see a notch. It's really odd, because it doesn't look like there is, say, a black border around the notch either.
I will be interested to see for myself when my phone arrives

Are the buttons for back, home and apps hideable? They are part of the 1080p screen, so they take up real estate...
I was wondering if I could hide them when playing a movie in 1080p. That would be a lot nicer and give 1:1 pixel mapping.

Ahh, serves me right for not putting a movie and testing Thanks.
With all the new 18:9 phones released this year, has anyone managed to get YouTube to stretch in our mi mix to make those black bars go away? I've been looking for a way, but no luck so far
anyone ?
Search ''Vanced youtube'' that apk had got pinch to zoom feature which feels full screen.
Try VLC app, it has a "fit screen" function.
Hey guys, I am looking to buy this phone. I have one question, what is the aspect ratio of the display with notch being disabled? Someone please answer. Thanks in advance.

I believe it is back to being standard 16:9 or 16:10 with the notch disabled. Out of curiosity, why is the aspect ratio an issue?

After seeing many videos on youtube, I believe it is 18:9.
Aspect ratio is always an issue. I watch movies on my smartphone, so I need to know how immersive is the video watching experience. Thanks anyway.
No worries, videos will be shown correctly without the notch even if you don't disable it. You won't face with any issues about that.

Android 9.0 added support for the notch, and many apps have been quick to release updates perfecting it, Google's YouTube of course was one of the first. When you disable the notch in the settings, you get the full standard viewable area. With the notch enabled, you can pinch out to zoom which will fill every corner of the screen with very minimal peripheral loss. Everything I mentioned is with the nav bar disabled (fullscreen display mode). The end result is an experience not much different than with a "standard" phone.
Hello there.
It seems that HDR is not working in YouTube or Netflix although i get the HDR logo in Quality settings (YouTube) or next to the movie duration (Netflix).
The brightnes does not seem to change like it should even though the slider is on maximum and the image does not 'pop' for example in bright scenes.
I have a Xiaomi Mi8 to compare it to and side by side there is a huge difference and the Mi9T pro should have a slightly better panel. It just does not look like HDR mode is enabled on the panel itself.
I have noticed the same thing on 3 other devices like mine.
I am on MIUI Global 10.3.4.0 on Android 9.
Has anyone else noticed that or is it just me?
HDR
I have noticed the same things and maybe there is something wrong here as I have seen in other phones that reading mode does get disabled.
Try YT Vanced
When using either app and using the app control to go full screen, does the video image extend past the camera cutout, all the way to the bezel?
I'm using the OnePlus 7T right now and neither of these apps will do that. There's a black bar hiding the camera notch. Netflix and YouTube do extend bezel to bezel because their developers are using the right Android API flag to do this.
I think that OnePlus developers do not implement the "show app in fullscreen" feature the same way the OneUI does. OnePlus support says it's up to the app developers, but I suspect that in OneUI and selecting to display an app in fullscreen, the OneUI layer doesn't actually tell the video app that there is a camera cutout, bypassing whatever flag app developers use. TLDR, can one answer my above question please? Thanks.
PLEX does not, but it does go right to the very edge of the camera, though if the video is cropped with black bars, it will be in further.
Prime video also just goes to the edge of the cutout. Unless I go into Android settings and force full screen for Prime. Then it goes all the way to the bezel. Plex does not appear to do that.
It appears there are multiple ways an app can go full screen because I have seen games that extend all the way to the bezel and others that just go to the edge of the cutout.
