MI MIX 2+ at the end of March?

Hi Guys, are You speaking about "Mi Mix 2 is the new Mi Mix"?
WRONG!
Mi Mix 2 is just a new version of Xiaomi Borderless smartphone.
At the end of march/first days of april, Xiaomi will have an event to show a new device:
XIAOMI MI MIX 2+ (Mi Mix 2 Plus)
same design of the Mi Mix2 but with 6,4" Oled display.
Other technical features:
94,3% display area
Qualcomm 945 (not confirmed)
8Gb ram
256Gb memory
MicroSD + Wireless Charge (we all hope....)
Miui 9 with Android Oreo
same NOT good camera like Mi Mix/Mi Mix 2 (but with 4k 60fps Video) :crying:
*Source internal worker, confirmed from gearbest friends
What do you think about Mi Mix 2 Plus?

Honestly? Sounds Like bs

Iphone X -> iphone X+
Lg G6 -> Lg V30
all the "bordeless" have a big brother.
Have sense all this. I'm sad only that we must wait so much months. :/

Unless you have a link to this "fake announcement" i doubt anyone will believe it

So, that's was true

It's going to be the Mix 2S, not the Mix 2+. So it wasn't true. It's not going to be a 6,4inch screen.. This guy probably just summed up some specs he made up which seemed likely to happen in a newer model. (SD 945, really??)

wtf u can do with 8 gb ) ...maxim 6 gb is enough to make the rutine of the day. And second, version with 8 gb ram is not everywehere disponible. so guys, if u want more sofisticate, buy a laptop and when u want to go somewhere, throw it in ur asssss ))

He was just as accurate as most of the "leaks" on the tech websites when it comes to upcoming models. The fact that he did it a month after the original came out is quite commendable. Good for him. You need to chill.

Mix 2S made official today https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-launches-xiaomi-mi-mix-2s-qualcomm-snapdragon-845/
So which after seller usually has it first?

I wonder if it will be compliant with Project Treble
I that case may be it could be worth to change mimix2 to mimix2s....

I thought any phone that comes with Oreo is project treble by default?
Its a shame it only does 4k video recording at 30fps

Mi 8 or mi mix 2s

I haven't decide yet witch to buy.
I don't like the notch but i think mi 8 is better and i can find mi 8 with only 20$ higher price.
I have oneplus 5t now.

Mi 8 just for the AMOLED HDR display. Also to show off to your friends for the 3D face unlock. Or if you're really into the animoji stuff then good for you.
Unless you really hate the notch, mi 8 is the obvious choice. That dual gps things seems very cool if it actually works correctly

I don't actually hate notch because i have never used any phone with it but i think it's like a bitten screen.
Maybe i will use to it.
Mix 2s is far more beautiful but mi 8 is better.
All mi 8 have 3d face unlock and animoji or only the explorer?

Can we buy this version and after when it's released to install the eu rom?
Because now doesn't have global version.
It's possible to buy it now and after just flash the eu rom or i will have a problem?

No, you will not have a problem.

The mi8 has IR face unlock and the EE has 3D face unlock.

The Mi8 got mono speaker and cheap mic, the better front camera and the rest is almost the same, feels better in hand but I will buy Mi Mix 2s.

i think mi mix 2s far more beautiful and it no have notch, i hate notch

A better front camera, broken GPS for now, no dual speaker, no wireless charging, longer and no ceramic. It offers less than Mix 2s and it is about 60€ cheaper, for good reason.

Xiaomi Mi 8 vs. S9+ in DxOMark

Hello
Does Xiaomi Mi 8 make such good photos/videos as Samsung Galaxy S9+ (according to DxoMark it should make the same, both phones achieved 99 points in photo/video category)?
Thanks

Nope. Samsung videos are unbeatable according to reviewers. Photos might be better on the mi8.
It has a 105 dxomark for photo. Video dragged it down.
Also, techtablets made a video on the mi8 vs op6, the audio recording capabilities of the mi8 are very very bad (might be a software issue). You should check out that video.

For the price it's the best, only thing comparable to it is the op6b but that phone is priced at little higher. If you don't do much video just buy this phone you'll be very happy with it.

You can't freeze the action using auto mode. Sometimes you get lucky. The auto mode of Huawei Mate 10 is quite good and the phone can take good action shots.
The reason why I didn't get this phone is I can't get K9 mail to work unless you use the global ROM. With the Mi 8, K9 works but only sometimes. It's a step up from my Mate 8 though except for the manual mode. Might have to use the global ROM too but unlocking the boot loader takes a long time!

What brand and model you are reffering to in freezing?
Unlocking bootloader takes a long time in which brand?
Cause if You have Xiaomi just fill a request form in case you'd have to wait many days. You might get lucky and get it quickly.

The most expensive will be the explorers edition with a transparent back and an in-display fingerprint sensor, also with a smaller battery (3000mah).
I'm in HK and for me here the mi8 is a lot cheaper. You can just check their website and compare prices.
Mi 8 6gb + 128gb = HK$3,699
Mi mix 2s 6gb+ 128gb = HK$4,399
Mi mix 2s uses ceramic on the back I think that's why it's more expensive.
The explorers edition is not out yet so no prices on that.
The lowest end which is the mi8 se has an all together different design and a different chipset(snapdragon 710), first released on this phone itself.

Anyone jumped to mi9 from mi8?

If you want to get the Mi 9 then just a direct spec comparison is enough without asking someone who's upgraded, you're gaining better screen protector, smaller notch, better SOC, better GPU, better camera, faster charging, wireless charging... No brainer imo

Good morning and thanks for the answers! Is the camera rly better without ois??

I'm assuming there might be a Mi 9s with ois and larger battery. The Mi 9 will have poor quality in low light photos

Got an Mi 8 blue 128 gb from Amazon WHD Like New for just 320 Euro. Wouldn't upgrade to the Mi 9 bc it is about 150 euro more expensive. Also a problem would be the missing OIS. Especially in Low Light situations. Nope, Mi 8 is still a great device. Btw: the Mi 9 is having a double higher SAR value which I personally care about a lot! 1,4 vs. 0,7.

From the FCC's website:
"ALL cell phones must meet the FCC’s RF exposure standard, which is set at a level well below that at which laboratory testing indicates, and medical and biological experts generally agree, adverse health effects could OCCUR."
Also, bigger OEM's such as Samsung also have devices with high SAR values, pretty sure the S10 or S10+ is 1.5

Not yet, but if you have an older phone it's the best for the price for sure
Enviado do meu MI 9 através do Tapatalk

I was thinking about, mainly for the better screen and battery. The mi 9's screen is very dim, even Samsung Galaxy AXXs are better, and the battery is just passable. But the price of the mi 10 seems too high.

well, with that around 600-700 bucks pricetag, i will say no...not even close for upgrade from Mi9 to a Mi 10, if you have a older than 2017 "flagship" phone, then i will say yes, for sure is a good update...but from Mi9 to Mi10, no, dont do that, is minimal updates, the bigger one is the cameras and battery, nothing much.
if you want a Mi10, wait like 3 to 4 months and you can buy it from 500, then, sure worth buying it for good.
My personal opinion having a Mi9, i wont update until 2023, only if they die on me, cause the phone is a beast, have everything i need, dont worry even in think of another phone while having this.
So, be aware, Mi 9 to a Mi 10 - DONT! - only if you have too much spare money, or dont know what to do about the money, just buy it.
If you dont have eighter Mi9 or Mi10, just buy the Mi 9, is cheaper, it cost even less than a samsung mid-range (like A70, around the same depending of where you buy it) and its a good phone, it will be "on top of the chain" for much time to come.

I agree with you. Mi9 is still on top, 855 is still fast enough for a couple of years, camera is still good if you use gcam. Mi10 is a beast and for sure is an improvement, but not enough for a new investment.
Also it has curved glass, which is still a no for me.

Do you even know what a flagship is? [emoji14] By definition, flagship is the best thing owned or produced by a particular organization. So, what you say makes no sense. Oneplus makes what you call flagship phones without wireless charging, and that yes is a deal breaker for most of the people rather than what you say.

USB 2.0 is for the year 2000

Who cares about USB 3? What's the usecase? Music? There is streaming abd and if you play music from the internal memory, THATS the year 2000. Photos? Thats what cloud space is for. Videos? Cloud too. And if any of you clowns claim that you make videos for professional environment, get a DSR. Jesus, people are weird. I bet some of rhe guys complaining about USB 2.0 live in third world countries where they **** on **** on the streets but USB 2.0? That's impossible.

Usb 3.1 = hdmi output
Usb 3.1 = multi port dongles that transform your high end phone in a on the go computer
You wouldn't care about it only if you want to pay alot of money for facebook and instagram, not a top tier phone that can do anything.
