6p or mi max - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

Currently have a s7 edge but want a bigger phone
I am interested in 6p but seen the mi max
How good is the camera
And will the 650 suffice

Well, 6p doesn't offer too much screen size difference, AFAIK.
It is also a late one. Go grab a Pixel XL if you want stock android experience.
You can also try a Mi MIX for it's uniqueness.
And since you have tasted S7 speed and screen res, I won't suggest you a Mi Max.

There are a few larger phablet than 6.44" Mi Max, like 6.6" Huawei Honor Note 8 & 6.8" Asus ZenFone 3 Ultra, they both offer better camera than Mi Max.

Xiaomi Mi Note 2 is better than Google Pixel XL { True or False }

This question is bothering me since I saw the specs of Xiaomi Mi Note 2. When I compare the both phones I found that somehow Mi Note 2 is better than Pixel XL. Come to this conclusion after 4 major points :-
1- Mi Note 2 have more Battery Life (4070 mAh) than Pixel XL (3450 mAH).
2- Mi Note 2 Rear Camera (22.56 MP) than Pixel XL (12.3 MP).
3- Mi Note 2 Screen Size (5.7'' dual-curved OLED display) than Pixel XL (5.5'' AMOLED display).
4- Mi Note 2 Price is way less than Pixel XL.
But still not pretty sure about Mi Note 2.
What is your suggestion
Completely subjective question. No right/wrong answer.

Unless you live in China, it's a moot point.

Dumb question. One would need to have used both to give their subjective opinion.
Also, "(4070 mAh) than Pixel XL (3450 mAH)" does not necessarily mean "more better life"
And more camera pixels does't necessarily mean better camera.
Silly.

It can be generally stated with the same hardware (CPU/GPU) and similar screen size, they'll draw similar amounts of power. Unless they do something horrible with their software, it can be easily assumed the Mi Note 2 will have better battery life.
Personally I don't think a barely better phone than the 5x I just got is worth $600+.
But you are right with the camera. Though I liked my Mi4C camera better than my 5x.
Pixel camera will no doubt blow it away. Other than that Mi Note 2 is legit.

Larger numbers are marketing tactics, bigger=better. Cameras are subject to a lot of different things for picture quality, even if it has 100mp. The battery life matters how efficient the hardware and software used. Gotta wait for numbers on how it actually performs.
22mp....but whats the aperature? Whats the pixel size? Is it dual pixel?
Megapixel alone is not much to go on. And generally when its a high megapixel, the other specs seem to suffer

Redmi 5 Plus (Note 5) vs Redmi Note 5 Pro - What to buy?

Apart from the dual cameras and the new 636 SoC, what else is there to upgrade to this from a RN5?
Lacks all the Mid-Range premium features like NFC, USB-Type C etc.
Obviously the Note 5 Pro!

Well I think I am gonna wait for Moto G6 Plus. It will surely have NFC and probably USB-C too. I am using Android Pay (G5 Plus) and although I don't need it, it would be annoying to go back.
If you're going for the Redmi Note 5, then go for the 3GB/32GB variant. And if you're going for the Redmi Note 5 Pro, then go for the 4GB/64GB. Both are worth are that price
Note 5 Pro
Redmi Note 5 Pro has many features that engaged you to buy it. It has a stunning 5.99-inches full-HD+ (1080x2160) display with stunning image quality. It's dual rear camera makes it more beautiful.
Pros:
Gorgeous Display
Great Camera Quality under daylight conditions
Excellent Battery Backup
No lag while multi-tasking and gaming
Fast and Accurate Face unlock
Cons:
No fast charging
Hybrid Sim Slot

Refresh rate vs Mate 20 and Pro?

I upgraded from Oneplus 3T to a Mate 20 and the first thing I noticed was how choppy the refresh rate was when scrolling. Then I tried a Xiaomi Mi Max 3 which looks much smoother (on par with the 3T) yet when I tried the ufotest they both come up as 60hz. Both the Mi Max 3 and Mate 20 have IPS screens and 60hz refresh rates, yet they feel completely different. The Mate 20 X has an AMOLED, but if 2 IPS screens can be so wildly different I don't know if that's the cause.

Both the Mi Max 3 and Mate 20 have the IPS LCD screens, both 60hz, but there's a huge difference anyway, I don't get it.

Mi 10T Vs Oneplus 8T due to price

In my country Oneplus 8T is 809$ after taxes where's Mi 10T (not the pro version) is 435$ after taxes, which one should i get? Is 8T really worth the higher price?
I tried both, and for the price, I would get the MI 10T
the only difference is the screen and the UI, if you like OLED blacks and are ready to spend 400 more then go for the 8T.
other than that the MI10T is better in battery and main/Selfie camera
to my eyes, the LCD from the MI10T is quite good and almost on par with an OLED
there are huge problem with the mi 10t / pro
proximity sensor no fix yet
loudspeakers mic
DnD
etc
I had the same doubts as you.
Go for Mi 10 T Pro.
After years of using Samsung's and OP's with AMOLED screens I have switched from OP 6T to Mi 10 T Pro and have no regrets. To be honest, my advice would be go to the store first and check does the size of the phone suits you because it's a bit bulky phone, but looking at what you get for the price I don't see reason why to pay almost double the price for OP 8T.
I have read many reviews and my only worry was the screen as it's LCD, but the screen is excellent. The difference is only visible if you put phone with OLED side by side with Mi 10 T, otherwise I can say only the best for it.

Mi 10T Pro or S20FE

I asked the same in the S20FE Forums but thought i'd ask here too.
I'm looking to replace my S10e with a larger phone. It's down to Mi10T Pro or S20FE. I will have to get the Exynos Version of the S20. It seems to be a toss up between the OLED Screen on the Samsung and the easier unlock plus Snapdragon on the Mi10T.
I don't care for cameras too much, i don't consume media on my phone, i know MIUI and OneUI and don't mind either. I've had great experience with Xiaomi and Samsung in the past. The only thing i'm a bit worried about is coming from an OLED Screen (S10e) to an IPS one might be a bit jarring when it comes to text contrast.
The xiaomi will be marginally cheaper (a few bucks).
Since i'll get it through my carrier, i can't get the regular Mi10 anymore. I debated waiting for the Mi11 but that will be quite a bit more expensive and i really don't need the increase in performance.
So what do you think? AMOLED + Exynos or IPS + Snapdragon?

Its up to u, s20 fe is really good phone too. I actually decided to go with mi 10t since fe and 10tpro are 100e more than 10t and they are not that better for that much difference, camera is 5% better and mi 10t is still capable of making some great shots. According to screen ive used 9t before and i can tell that i like IPS more and its faster refresh rate is amazing, but it doesnt have aod and super wallpapers so its one downside for me.
Mi 10T Pro is a much better phone overall, which is amazing given it's way cheaper than the S20FE. One of the best value phones hands down.
Software wise is less bloated and offers a better Android experience.
Hardware is so much better in every single area. The camera is very very good, the battery performance is stellar, the screen is top notch for an IPS LCD screen. Then Exynos vs Snapdragon, dilemma in which I prefer Snapdragon.
Now there's a few things which might be deal breakers for people:
-No IP68 (I've never had the need for this in my life, phone is unusable when swimming anyways), but if you love boating, beaches or swimming then this might be a deal for you.
-ANY AMOLED screen it's light years ahead of even the best LCD screens. It's day and night difference: the contrast, the colors, everything. Pictures with bright colors on day light they're comparable, as soon as there's an image with heavy contrast, shadows or black on it then it's VERY obvious the differences specially indoors. When web browsing or scrolling around the menus you won't notice, as soon as you open a photo or a nice wallpaper, you'll see how bad LCD screens are compared to AMOLED.
-Developer community is still dead for the Mi 10T.
I came from a Mi 9T Pro, and the AMOLED screen it's a big deal... But I really wanted the infinite lasting battery of the Mi 10T and the IR blaster. As an added bonus I found out the camera, specially video recording and low light photos is so but so much better. But once you go AMOLED is very hard to go back to LCD.
Just because of the Samsung bloatware I'd avoid them like a plague, and you'd think a Chinese manufacturer would be worse but overall Xiaomi is better than the rest, they have done a pretty good job from hardware to software. It's a solid and nice product.
And for the money of an S20 FE you're better off buying a Google Pixel 5 which is pretty good if you don't mind the "OK" battery.
Or better yet go for the Mi 10 Ultra or Mi 11 Pro which is around the corner.

Snapdragon 865 in Mi 10T Pro is 30% faster than the Exynos on S20... and also better thermal control and less throttling.
I agree the LED on 10T vs Amoled on S20 is a slight downer, however the 10T PRo is 144Hz refresh vs 120 on Samsung S20
Battery life is undoubletly better on Xiaomi compared with Samsung, and also the battery in 10T Pro is a lot larger (5000mah)
Look on eBay or FB for best prices on borh phones before you make your final decision.
(I got a 2nd hand Mi 10T PRo brand new - with genuine UK Mi 30w charger, but no retail box - for £380 on FB Marketplace )
I'm also excited about the upcoming Mi 11 range but agree with you... Mi 11 prices for next 3-6 months will be much higher than for Mi10 , even 2nd hand ones.
Either S20 FE or Mi 10T Pro will be a great device for you, but my vote goes for the Mi 10T Pro.
(P.S. go for 256GB storage option as Mi 10 devices do not support SD Card expansion).
well it's not a direct comparison , but i've upgraded from a Samsung Galaxy Note 8 , and I miss the Note 8's Amoled screen.. it's much much better that Mi 10T Pro's LCD if you factor out the smooth 144hz screen , everything else is much bettter on the Xiaomi... oh forgot about note8 is thinner at that Spen
The contrast on Mi 10T/Pro is high but not on the same level of OLED screens. Probably the best LCD I've seen on a phone.
guys i found the s20fe 5g and the mi10t in the same price wich one should i choose both of them are equiped with sd865
