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.

Hello guys I'm looking to buy new phone. Anyway I sold my old Xiaomi Mi5 few days ago and now I want to buy Mi5S or LG g5? What's your opinion and why?
I need a phone with good batter, NO overheating, fast, good display quality with best colours and sound and hands-free sound quality
Sorry for my bad English
Ps** i will buy one of these phones at 250 euros.... second hand
Of course Xiaomi mi5s....it is more powerful device than g5....i say more....mi5s is using the same processor that is in G6....yes G6.....after this you decide. And im using mi5s like a half year....after lg G3....and i must say....that LG SUCKS....sorry....but really....g3 is overheating like 90 celsius....and was a terrible phone.....buy the mi5s....and the best camera ever in mi5s....same as google pixel
i payed for new mi 5s 270e few weeks ago, dont buy used one for 250. mi 5s is more powerful but support for it is horrible, you will not be able to google and solve any problem, installing roms and making them work is nightmare(no good camera app on roms too). i think g5 is much more reliable and has better softver but mi 5s hardware superior
I'd recommend mi5s
Gearbest is selling it for 217.00EU using this link (coupon code) https://www.kimovil.com/to/special/R4OkA7
I had the G5, it has a lot of problems. The front glass is so thin that every even slightly harder press smudges the colors on the screen. Depending on your luck your module might be fine or uneven. Low light camera performance is really poor and good light performance is worse than the Mi 5s. After the screen on my G5 started having burn-ins (shadowing) I sold it and for the same price bought the Mi 5s. Never looked back.
I'm contemplating of buying this phone or should I wait for MI 8. The price is very tempting to buy now or should I wait for Mi 8?
The things to consider is I want to try the amoled screen at mi 8. Also I want to have a borderless screen. But is it worth the wait? I'm time limited because the buyer of my current phone will leave next week.
Is the camera quality of the new sensor so good as the mi 6?
I'm torn.
Wait for mi 8 then but mi 6 ?. Seriously this is a really solid device. For the price range we're talking about, mi flagships offer very high value/price rate and don't get deprecated as quickly as the other brands' same price devices.
Camera etc all good and unless you are a freak that counts every pixel in a photo you won't notice any great improvements over this phone on mi 8 or so.
About amoled vs ips lcd, I think they're nearly identical in terms of power usage (in real life, "normal" applications) hence the whites are everywhere, inevitable. Color reproduction of the screen is great here too.
But for borderless screen and having on screen navbar things on a 18:9 phone vs capacitive buttons + 16:9 screen, that's up to you. I don't see any great improvements on user experience with one over two unless we're talking about a serious gesture based ux like on sailfish os devices so I don't care here.
I think the most obvious change between the two is the chipset so decide yourself, whether you want to pay more and get mi 8 or get mi 6 for real cheap (when mi 8 starts to ship). Again expect no dramatical changes between the two chipset as they're both 10 nm architecture.
Wait for mi9, Buy mi6 or just buy the mi2x instead.
Hi.
I have a Ulefone Be Touch 2 and I want to buy a new phone.
I don't know if I should buy a Xiaomi Mi A2 Lite or a Redmi Note 7.
The Android One of the Mi A2 Lite is more appealing, but the RN7 has a bigger screen.
My eyes are not perfect, but if the Mi A2 Lite has at least the same screen width as the UBT2, then I'll probably buy the Mi A2 Lite instead of the RN7. The UBT2 has a screen width of about 68.5mm (2.7 inches) and a total width of 77.4mm (3.05 inches).
Can someone please measure the screen width of the Mi A2 Lite? I know that the total width of the Mi A2 Lite is 71.68mm (2.82 inches), but I don't know it's screen width.
Thank you.
About bugs, anyone experience anything bad? GPS and bluetooth work fine?
Should we expect updates until Android 10 or until Android 11?
Concerning privacy, do you recommend me to install a CFW to prevent any kind of spying by Xiaomi?
Why do you wanna know about screen width though?
Mi A2 Lite display have 5.84 inches, 85.1 cm2 (~79.5% screen-to-body ratio), and Ulefone Be Touch have 5.5″ screen.
I recommend buying Redmi Note 7. It has way more peformance, the design is beautiful and has a 48mp camera, has a headphone jack, etc. I don't think Android One is appealing. Android One is stock android and has almost no features. It's just boring. If you don't like miui, you can install custom rom in the device later.

Thank you very much for your help.
I want to know the screen width because I can't see very well (my eyes suck), and I need a phone with a big screen width. I understand that the diagonal of the Mi A2 Lite is 5.84 inches and that the diagonal of the UBT2 is 5.5 inches, but what about the width?
Regarding the RN7, I don't really like the miui. I've asked about the RN7 in another thread and they told me that custom roms for the RN7 still have a few bugs... maybe the bugs will be solved in future updates, maybe not.
EDIT: asked an eBay seller, he told me the screen width is 64mm (don't know if he measured it correctly or not).
Hello all !
I need some help!
I'm in need of a new phone and came to the conclusion I wanted a Xiaomi. After watching some video's I came to the conclusion I wanted the Mi CC9 (Mi 9 Lite) so I've just ordered the 64gb variant.
After doing some further research I've discovered I could've got a Redmi Note 8 Pro for only £8 more.
Do you think I should cancel my order and get the Note 8 Pro? The dust and splash resistant is something I could really do with as I hate the fear of potential water damage from rain.
Also even though the Note 8 Pro features a 4500 maH battery and the Mi 9 Lite only has a 4030 maH battery which do you think will last longer? Considering it has a bigger screen and a more demanding processor do you think that the 9 Lite battery will still be better?
I can't do you a comparison. However, I got myself a Redmi Note 8 pro just over a week ago instead of the K20 pro or the mi 9 pro. I can tell you I am pretty happy with my decision. I didn't care for the pop up camera, nor the OLED screen or in screen finger print sensor. On the 8 pro, the screen is good under most condition. The battery is way better than what I have on the iPhone 8 plus. The processor is fast, everything is snappy and the finger print sensor on the back works very well.
Hope the above helps. Good luck on your purchase.
Redmi note 8 pro is definitely a better option right now at this very moment, any other phone will be a waste of resources, i own one and totally loves it!!!!!!

How is the display? I want AMOLED but also want the dust and water resistant that the Note 8 Pro has

Also why will any other model be a waste of resources? The Note 8 Pro has a Mediatek chip which has a bad reputation for optimisation and regular updates, as well as going crap after 2 years.
The 9 Lite has a snapdragon which from what I've heard will receive more updates
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
