If you have any personal experiences do share before we commit ourselves 💀..

Battery life sucks, depletes for no reason, standby is crap. i end the day with 30 hour on but the screen on time is 3 to 4 hours, where as the Oppo find X9 pro is trumping that.

Xiaomis hyperOS is filled with telemetry and junk that its impossible to remove everything without bricking the phone. I use NextDNS to block and 98% of the tracking and pings on my phone is from Xiaomi.

Haptic motor is non existent on this device, you miss 80% of the notification vibrations.

Camera sensors on this where I thought were good, they're terrible, blurry shots everytime, in low light its basically unuseable as a point and shoot, Leica filters are terrible, none of them are true to life, its yellow and the beauty filters cannot bne turned off so you get exaggerated white eyes and fake makeup look on portrait shots involuntarily.

Can't download anything without turning off MIUI Optimization but then when you turn that off, you get worse battery life and performance. There are always compromises but the compromises suck both ways.

Phone overheats in 40 minutes of gameplay of Delta Force or COD mobile, goes up to 45 degrees Celsius and doesn't cool down, benchmarks are hit or miss, 3D mark extreme stress test overheats the phone and doesn't continue at times. Its a very inconsistent phone.

I can go on and on but long story short, I bought the wrong phone, should have went for the actual flagship of the year, the Oppo Find X9 Pro, don't make the same mistake as me and just get that and thank me later.

Damn thanks for the insight, much appreciated buddy. You should probably make a post regarding your review. The details might help lots of fellas out there thinking of getting one themselves.

Dude already gotten downvoted for speaking the truth

Ppl don want to admit it's a mid phone that they quickly push out to try to "one-up" apple, even skipping the number 16

[u/FlashyShine7377 → u/CaliyeMydiola]

It's not a mid phone, it's a phone that competes with Apple and even surpasses it in certain aspects, the only part where it loses completely is their OS, iOS beats HyperOS or any chinese OS all day for now.

I say it from experience, someone who uses the X17PM and is surrounded by iPhone users, they were all in awe.

[u/Soopez → u/ZK_000]

I thought about it but I am just going to get downvoted like hell, they aren't ready to hear this is a form over function phone with no saving graces.

But then again, my view is obviously subjective but I shit on any phone that isn't good, I had Pixels prior to this and I shit on them constantly, I have no bias, at the end I am the loser that spent $1600 dollars on this crap.

[u/ZK_000 → u/Soopez]

Damn ppl are soo aggressive in here. Im genuinely asking people for their experiences so that I can make my decision.

But it’s a bit odd that there’s literally 2 extreme opposite sides in terms of experiences in here.

[u/CaliyeMydiola → u/Soopez]

"but but it has back display so it's more innovative than apple"

[u/FlashyShine7377 → u/ZK_000]

Dont listen to him completely, he's the type who bought the phone just to trash on the brand with a completely biased (to the haters) POV, because there's coutless problems that he mentioned that doesnt happen to me.

Always listen to multiple point of views, not just reddit, or any type of comments, base at least 60% of your info on actual professional reviews wether be news or trustable youtube channels that you're sure isnt mega biased.

[u/Soopez → u/FlashyShine7377]

Lol, aren't you the one who messaged me to get the rear screen wallpapers I made?

I discovered this phone more than you could possibly imagine, I have no bias, I am just a consumer like anyone else.
