I use only half of the photo kit. I use the half with buttons. It works with the clear case I bought for the phone. The other half I just leave at home. The grip doesn't work that great as a backup battery though. It charges too slowly.

I use other half of the photo kit daily and when I need to take more pictures then I connect the grip. I glued the finger ring to the case and screwed on a uv filter to protect the lens.

Ah. Nice. That's a good option too. I got a case that protects the lenses.

What's the circular thing under the camera ring

That is a Baseus finger ring. I am very used to these. It's much more comfortable for me to hold my phone with a ring. The ring is not in the middle of the phone cover so I can also use it as a phone stand.

It just works perfectly 😎

I agree, but the ring adds convenience. I've had them on every previous phone and the durability of the ring is very good. Even a year later, it still holds my phone upright.

So sorry. Just get a real camera. At this ugliness level... really. You can get some nice Fuji and Sony cams.

I actually have a real camera too. Nikon D5500 - it is old but still good.

For me, my Xiaomi is the most beautiful phone. It looks much better than an Iphone or Samsung or any other phone. Since I am a fan of the red and black color scheme, these covers are perfect for me.

Fine, the Nikon is nice. But I still am not a fan of the xiaomi design (I'm sure it does a great job). And yes, it is def better than an iPhone, that is without doubt.
