Guys I am trying to decide if I should purchase this phone or keep the Umidigi Power 3 6150mah Helio P60. Performance is good enough for me. I use my phone heavily all day, I use 9-10h SoT in one day, my battery is in the 40s% at the end of the day. Umidigi claims 29hr video playback sot but with my usage its less. I use a USB sound amplifier which sucks power through the type C and I listen to music all day while using the phone. The Umdigi has pure Android 10 similar to the Pixel. The Xiaomi doesn't support Band 4 and 7 so not sure if LTE will work. The Xiaomi is 50$CAD more than the Umidigi.
Its a tough decision...
Oh yeah also I like the Umidigi left dot camera more than the Xiaomi design. Also the Xiaomi is only available from China through AliExpress and the post here is not delivering China packages during Corona. I got the Umidigi from Amazon same price as AliExpress free one day shipping. I have one month to return it.

Well, it would be better to answer his question, than to say that.
I would rate it 8/10. It the 10,400 mAH one.
Its been a year since I bought it and its still going strong. No issues at all. I am still able to charge my Mi3 at least twice.
I have the 10,400mAh one, 10/10 for meeting its specs.
However, it weighs over 250g - 1/4 kilo! Also very bulky.
If you want/need 10,000mAh, nothing can be done about the weight or bulk.
But I would recommend the 5,000mAh variant, with a form factor like a phone and similar weight. Bought one for the wife, wish I had that one myself now...
10000mAh on 3.6V, 7000mAh on 5V...
Using 3 years positioning like 10400mAh battery - no any problems!
Stable charge of my Mi3 with 3050mAh battery for 2 times!

Its awesome still working great after 2 years of use.
I would rate 9/10.
As well as a 10,000mah battery Ive used for over a year which outperforms any other battery that I've bought, I also have a 10,000mah MF885 4G wifi hotpost and it is honestly the coolest mobile product i've ever owned. I've had situations where I want to do something at school like throw the output of my 12" ipad thru reflector on my macbook onto the projector so kids can write on the ipad pro in front of the whole class while also streaming the content they're working on from google drive but the school wifi isn't fast enough for the local mirroring so I use the MF885 and I pull 50mb/s over LTE while also getting seamless wireless desktop mirroring, and if i turn off the macbook display while it's outputting to the projector I can do this all day long and still go home with over 50% charge on all my devices, including my Mi4LTE which I use to film and photograph and charge off the other battery. When I go to the countryside to visit my wife's family, I chain the two xiaomi batteries together and provide wifi to the house for weeks without even plugging anything in. I rate Xiaomi batteries above anything for reliability and usefulness. My life wouldn't function without them.
HI guys. I'm very interested in buying this 6000 battery? and i wanna know if its a good legit battery for my 20x.
https://www.aliexpress.com/item/33047747490.html?spm=a2g0o.search0305.0.0.34b96217yInvge&algo_pvid=aba6baae-5371-44ba-bab7-97a87ae71e6f&algo_expid=aba6baae-5371-44ba-bab7-97a87ae71e6f-1&btsid=0bb0623316212957389992031ed1e8&ws_ab_test=searchweb0_0,searchweb201602_,searchweb201603_
And how do you came to your conclusion?
It comes with a 5000 mAh battery, right?
This one is 6000... how could it possible be legit!!! The manufacturer squeezes in as much battery as is safe and possible!
Replace with OEM only.

If it was a compatible graphene cell I be tempted but otherwise it's a high risk venture.
When an Li fails it's not a pretty picture and can easily destroy the phone.

Yes a graphene battery would be ideal if one were compatible for the 20X. Amazon sells graphene batteries but how would one make them compatible inside the phone takes guesswork.

The power controller/hardware as well as firmware would likely be incompatible.
You would need to modify the battery connection as well. If you could find one with the right dimensions the phone would be likely incapable of super fast charging it.
Be nice if a company made retrofits for older phones but this seems unlikely.
So... keep throwing Li's at it
I may go to replacing them every 6-12 months. The ignorance/fear factor is gone in me. Routine maintenance now.

Yeah I hear you. Honestly I dont mind replacing my 20x's battery. But I'm headed down that end of the road for the phone for sure as its showing its age and wrinkles. It may be time to replace it with another phone with better, up to date specs as I'm eyeing the black shark 3 pro and note 20.
The 2 issues with the BS3 pro are the camera and battery. In reviews its cam isnt that good which is a downer and the battery drains fast despite its 5000 mah capacity. The Note 20 on the other hand has a very sharp screen but its still small relative to the 20X.
I'm caught between a rock and a hard place in deciding which phone is best. Ideally if there were an ultra crisp amoled phone with the same screen size and aspect ratio as the 20X I'd jump at the chance of buying it in a heartbeat.

Meh, wait till the right comes along. I'm in a holding pattern myself with the Note 10+, Pie
Other than the battery it's aging very well.
Got 5 years out of my S4+ with only battery replacement so...
Hi so this week i intend to buy the Pixel 2xl but when i researched on this phone some websites says that it can go upto 27w but when i check on gsmarena it only shows that is 10.5 wats im not really sure can someone help me. I also found a pixel 3 for the same price which one should i choose.

It doesn't support 27w charging. It comes with an 18w charger but is capped at 10.5w I believe.
Definitely go for the 2XL over the 3. There are a ton of reports that the 3 is bricking all over the place out of nowhere. Plus, imo, the 2XL is better anyway. I have one and it's still running great. The 3 is probably the worst in the series so far, imo.
Pixel 2 xl supports upto 10.5W. 1hr charge will take you to 75%
Full charge 2hrs 20minutes
Pixel 2 xl has great battery when compared to pixel 3. So go for it.
Hey folks,
The phone doesn't charge anymore, so I just ordered a micro usb charging port board and also a new battery. I already disassembled the phone, waiting for the parts to arrive.
After 3 years using it, the Lenovo P2 it's one of the best phones I've ever owned. I'm thinking to either keep using it or keep it as a backup phone.
What are the alternatives in the market these days? I did a brief research online but it's very overwhelming, too many models out there. Main priority is a good battery performance, probably above 5000-6000 mAh capacity. Ideally with an Amoled or s-Amoled display coz those screens consume less power than other types.
Thanks
1. Samsung M51.
2. Replace the battery.
I went with OnePlus Nord because I don't like Samsung and it seemed to provide the most value for 270$.
If battery is a major issue and you're looking at the mid-range, I'd consider a Motorola phone.
Maybe Motorola Moto G200?
Has amoled screen, 5000mah battery, SD888.
I personally have the G100 and its a very good phone. Very good value too.

Too weak battery. Go for Realme GT2 Neo.
Oneplus Nord CE is also a viable option.
I correct myself: Realme 9 actually has a strong battery. If we are talking about the 4G version. But overall not well-built phone.
The closest you get to a successor would probably be Moto G52/82.
Redmi Note 11 NFC is my alternative.
Xiaomi Redmi Note 11 - Full phone specifications
www.gsmarena.com
Realme 10 Pro plus just made it to the top of GSMArena's battery life test: https://www.gsmarena.com/realme_10_pro_plus-review-2511p3.php
Would choose it over Realme 9 4G (RMX3521).
Not really a worthy successor, but a substitute I guess.
I've had my Mate 20x for coming up to 3 years now which is the longest I've ever owned a phone. I run my whole life and business from it and haven't found a reason to change other than storage so I bought a 5G version, only to find out it's a crippled version of the 4G that's been stripped of the top speaker, audio jack and most importantly, has a smaller 4200mAh battery. I could do with the extra storage the 5G has but the smaller battery is a deal breaker.
Will a 5000mAh from the original Mate 20 x fit in the 5g?
