  • Great display, good specs overall, average camera performance

    Tested 2 units for 3 whole days each. Comes with pre-installed screen protector and free clear jelly case. 120Hz amoled display is bright enough and gives crisp colors to my casual experience. Camera performance is average, well lighted subjects and scenes are mostly OK, outdoor night shots even on night mode still looks terrible even if you compensated with better lighting. A bit disappointed that Xiaomi's own Game Turbo app was not included on the MiUI14 it came with but I was able to play Arknights well and a bit of Genshin Impact with acceptable graphic hiccups here and there. Wifi, mirror/cast, BT, GPS, mobile signals and FM radio works well. MicroSD and OTG also working fine. Sounds and audio quality on the single speaker are OK too but maybe tinny for audiophiles. The 5000mAh battery can last a day of moderate mobile phone usage and the included 33-watt charger and USB-type C cable charges from <10% to full in about 1.5 hours or so.

    Pros
    • 120hz AMOLED display
    • Widevine L1
    • 5000mAh battery with 33 watts Mi Turbo charger
    Cons
    • mediocre to average camera performance overall
    • some lags and glitches here and there

    Software Problems - Nice screen and robust battery.

    Positive points: - The mobile has a good design, premium style. - Amoled screen, Full HD, with a rate of 120 hz. - Good battery (5000 mAh) and fast charging (33W). Negative points: - The MIU 13 and 14 is not a good Software for this equipment, demanding the maximum in RAM consumption. This equipment falls short with 4GB of ram, slowness is noted in several applications, some apps close by themselves, and the fluidity is slow. - Camera with little sharpness at night.

    Pros
    • Amoled screen
    • 5000mAh battery
    • 120hz refresh rate
    • sophisticated design
    Cons

    I do not recommend it

    The most remarkable thing about this cell phone is the screen, it is a large AMOLED panel with good brightness outdoors. Regular cameras, nothing remarkable. Night photography is a must. Insufficient RAM, it closes applications even if I don't have many open. Very fair autonomy, it barely gives you the day, it feels like it has a 4,000 mAh battery and not a 5,000 mAh one. The biggest problem with this phone and for which I do not recommend it at all is the software is poorly optimized, the device feels slow, it takes time to open apps, it closes them out of the blue, many bugs and it is not a problem with the processor since it I have tried on other cell phones and it is a good processor. The problem lies in the software.

    Pros
    • Design
    • AMOLED screen
    • 33W fast charge
    Cons
    • Bugs, lags, crashes a lot and feels slow

What is a Ki score?
Ki is an automatic score based on the specifications and prices of devices. It is calculated using over 200 variables to rank smartphones, tablets and other devices from best to worst.
How do we calculate the Ki?

In this case, to determine the score we evaluate 5 general aspects:

  • Design and screen
  • Hardware and performance
  • Camera
  • Connectivity
  • Battery

Once these 5 factors have been rated, we introduce the price variable. This means that any two devices with the same ratings get a different Ki score for quality vs price.

Even a device objectively worse than another may have a higher Ki score if it has a better price.

Does the Ki score change?

The Ki varies as time goes by. As new devices with better specifications enter the market the Ki score of older devices will go down, always being compensated of their decrease in price.
