          +2

          @cosmickinect:

          I haven't played around with the camera too much, but found it pretty acceptable. So far it seems better than the camera on my Onkyo Granbeat and Sony Xperia Z+.

          Audio quality for video recording is pretty bad, though, but I suspect you'd have experienced that with the original Mix as it's apparently a software issue.

        Even though this doesn't. Dual Sim phones where one sim slot is used for an SD card are disappointing.

        As soon as you need more storage they are a single sim phone like most others

        • L0zBargain on 14/03/2018 - 11:34

        • peterpaoliello on 15/03/2018 - 17:07

          I'd doing the run-around right now for the same reason. it's a very short list, and to find something on close to pure Android is even harder. I have MotoG4 at the moment and i might have to stick to that line by the look of things. OnePlus 5t has a version with Dual SIM and 128 onboard if that's space for you.

        • spaceflight on 15/03/2018 - 17:41

          @peterpaoliello:

          I believe that the Moto Z and Z2 have dual sim + separate SD and they would be above the G4 in specifications

    • love2buy on 13/03/2018 - 21:11

      Hi im interested in your opinion on this phone. Thanks.

      • veetor on 13/03/2018 - 21:37
        +7

        Overall I like it. It's a really distinctive-looking phone, which was one of the reasons I bought it.

        Pros:

        Battery life is pretty good.
        Band 28 is honestly a nice touch, as I don't seem to encounter as many dead spots anymore
        Decent customisation options - you can configure headset buttons, shortcuts and physical buttons. For some reason the camera has a pervy mode where you take photos by holding down the volume down button while the screen is off if you're into that.

        Cons:

        Video recordings sound like they're underwater due to a software issue
        MIUI is a bit too much like iOS, so home screen management can be a bit tedious
        It seems like I get notifications for everything my phone does and regularly get notifications for Xiaomi rubbish like their storage cleanup app
        Battery management is a bit overzealous - need to manually configure which apps you want to allow to automatically start, as I think they're actually closed in RAM after a while.

    I’m starting to think Apple ripped me off

    • cannedhams on 14/03/2018 - 06:19

      I just bought my wife one of these Xiaomi phones (the M1 A1). She's fairly impressed having upgraded from an iphone 5s. The difference in bang for your buck is pretty remarkable.

      One slight snag: the Xiaomi sim tool is a bit skinnier than the iphone one. I tried to use the iphone sim tool to crack the tray open and i could feel it scraping the sides. Best to use the Xiaomi one on the side of the box.

    • julioj on 15/03/2018 - 17:27

      I should think so, bang for your buck with these Chinese phones is unbeatable.

      Over the past year and a bit I've dabbled with the Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 (had 2, one with a Mediatek chipset and one with a Qualcomm chipset, the latter being far superior for cellular and WiFi performance), a super cheap Vernee Mix2 (bezel-less super-cheap thing, also Mediatek, it worked but very ragged around the edges) and have now settled with the OnePlus 5t.

      The mark-up for the Apple branding is enormous, and while I'll admit their products are typically of excellent quality, you still won't convince me it's worth the $1000 premium you pay. The difference in build quality between something like the new iPhone X and the OnePlus is pretty minuscule, and wireless performance and processor speeds are on both are way more than anyone needs at this point. So why pay an extra $1200 in the case of the Apple product? Not justifiable.

      except that just a good phone with google stock rom tag(exp. tag)

    • SimpleRoger on 14/03/2018 - 09:17

      Of course pixel 2 now is a rip off

    • rk1314 on 15/03/2018 - 20:27

      I had the original mix and recently got a pixel 2 XL only because I replaced the screen 4 times and the latest fall cracked the back as well. The newer mix 2 has gorilla glass and slightly thicker bezels so it shouldn't crack as easily. Honestly, the pixel 2 feels cheap in comparison. The mix feels so premium, when I first picked it up it felt almost like when I opened my iPhone 4 for the first time. Having said that, the software on the pixel 2 XL is good though I don't feel it's worth the extra couple hundred bucks over the mix's.

      The only things the mix was lacking was in the camera department and the small mono speaker, everything else was almost perfect.

    For comparison https://www.gsmarena.com/compare.php3?idPhone1=8529&idPhone2…

    • sky blu on 14/03/2018 - 07:07
      +9

      Similar specs but they are for different markets

      Nokia 8 is 5.3" and has 4GB RAM (already plenty),

      Xiaomi Mi Mix 2 is a phablet at 5.99", comes with 6GB RAM and runs MiUI.

      So it depends on what you want. Start with the size.

      I am more bothered of the fact you linked the Nokia 8 to someone's post instead of the recent post from the legendary Sky Blu (me). Uncool, bro!

      • MrFunSocks on 14/03/2018 - 11:55

        You can't really call one a phablet and the other not, when they're almost exactly the same physical size lol:

        • Jackson on 14/03/2018 - 18:11
          +1

          the extra size is due to the 18:9 screen, I guess phones now need to be bigger than 6" to be a phablet then?

        • MrFunSocks on 15/03/2018 - 06:54
          +1

          @Jackson:I'm just saying phablet is more about physical size as well as screen size. You can't have 2 phones that are physically the same size yet only call 1 of them a phablet.

        • sky blu on 15/03/2018 - 07:05

      If you can afford it, get this one. You're getting better hardware. If this was on the Android One program, there'd be no question. Personally, I'd go with the A1 for budget and the fact it's running pure Android.
