Was a little unsure of the phone before buying as I haven't heard much about Xiaomi phones before. But after opening the box the phone feels like a premium flagship with a glass back and metallic feel frame. The phone is very quick and responsive and can handle gaming with ease. The OS itself is very clean and runs very smoothly and comes with an amazing 30w fast charge which charges the phone extremely quickly Was a little unsure of the phone before buying as I haven't heard much about Xiaomi phones before.

Overall very impressed with this phone.
Solid 2 day battery, large bright screen, awesome camera setup.

2 features I would of liked to have that aren't present on this phone are Wireless charging and OIS for the camera.

If you are deciding between this and the Note 9s, the 2 key differences are this one has the 64mp main camera vs the 48mp main on the 9s and this one has NFC, which the 9s does not. Otherwise they're identical and share the same cases and screen protectors. Overall very impressed with this phone.

This phone has done everything i need, i was a Samsung user and was dreading buying another phone as i would have to buy the S20 or Note 20. I gambled with this phone and i wasn't wrong. It has run all apps that i have loaded and is a speed demon. The 6GB of RAm and the 720 snap dragon are sweet. The 64MP camera is handy as well as the ultra wide lens is top notch. There are a few things that could be improved, one would be having the ability to silence notifications only as the volume controls the ringer, notifications and reminders. I have messenger going off all the time and with my old note 4 i could just mute notifications.

I have messenger going off all the time and with my old note 4 i could just mute notifications. Also the phone needs some getting used to as with Samsung you could have the keypad appear by default and type a number then click on that number to dial but now i have to click another button to dial the number. But having the same phone for 5 years i'm sure you'll get used to that.

The screen is not as good as a samsung phone but for its price (less than half of a samsung note) what do you expect.
I'm very pleased to have this phone. The screen is not as good as a samsung phone but for its price (less than half of a samsung note) what do you expect.

Confirming all those positive comments, good performance of CPU and RAM, good quality camera, high battery capacity, very fast charging (almost 90% in 1 hour),...
I just want to notice about the speaker. I am disappointed with the loudness and the quality of the speaker. If you usually use your phone as a portable speaker, I don't recommend it. However, for usual jobs, it's ok for its low price.

The big selling point for me was the long battery life as sometimes I am unable to charge it daily due to work and I have not been disappointed. With moderate use I am getting an easy two days from a charge. I was worried about the advertising but to be honest I am only getting the odd add, google how to reduce the number of adds on these phones. Not too large and a nice display make things easier if I do not have my glasses with me. Happy with the camera quality and it gets a nice shot, the macro mode is a bit of fun too.
UI works nicely and I have no complaints about speed (though the phone I had was getting quite old).

This is my first Xiamoi phone and after a few weeks of use I have no regrets at all about the purchase.

Value of money. Great battery life Value of money. Great battery life

Really good battery last for 3+ days and a good phone to use Really good battery last for 3+ days and a good phone to use

After sales service was good and my efforts were a smooth transition.
In no time I'd achieved the desired outcome...
As always will trade again. After sales service was good and my efforts were a smooth transition.

Awesome phone for its price, no hiccups so far, very fast OS, great camera quality, don't need to buy expensive phone when you can buy a year 2020 phone for $550 Awesome phone for its price, no hiccups so far, very fast OS, great camera quality, don't need to buy expensive phone when you can buy a year 2020 phone for $550

I bought this phone for my partner and she's loving it. In particular she loves the camera and talked about how much detail she gets even when she is zooming into an image. She also said she easily gets a day or more out of the battery. I bought this phone for my partner and she's loving it.

the phone is overall good but there was some problem with the wifi function. Wifi frequently turns itself off and cannot connect to a certain wifi. the phone is overall good but there was some problem with the wifi function. Wifi frequently turns itself off and cannot connect to a certain wifi.
