E5 MiMi Mix 3 en 6+128 Onyx Black

1 year later...• Slider still works flawlessly• Camera still amazes (especially front cam)• Battery life has actually improved• Not many updates, which is a shame• Not a scratch or mark on itOriginal review 30/01/2019This phone is worth every penny. I've had it for about 2 weeks and so far it has been as good or better than any other phone in every category.Battery life is very good, nothing special but easily enough, and surprising for its smaller than usual capacity and big screen. Charge times are pleasant and the wireless charging is a plus.The screen is bright and vibrant without going overboard, and it's easy to see on max brightness in the sun. The single mono speaker is loud and clear, and doesn't make me too annoyed to lose stereo from my previous Galaxy S9 speakers.Side note - the headphone dongle in the box is average at best, but I used a 3rd party adapter and the slider still works well enough with a slightly thicker USB Cable head, and now the music with the adapter gets incredibly loud and clear, so the phone is capable as even my S9 didn't get that volume out of the adapter.The camera is interesting. It's absolutely fine, basically a OnePlus 6 cameraBut I downloaded a Google camera port and it's pixel quality. Exposure, HDR, contrast, sharpness, all flawless. So again, this phone is capable, with a modification. (Front flash is nice for selfies in the dark, and performs very well for a proper LED flash)Overall this phone is fun, different and just as good as the mainstream. I am more than happy with it, and I enjoy the exclusivity it currently has.

I love this phone. It has decent battery life, considering it has a small battery, it has a brilliant amoled screen, lovely dark mode features, and the selfie camera slide screen becomes almost addictive to slide up and down. My only negative is the camera quality has been taken down slightly. However considering the price and the value for money, and the fact that at the time I bought it the CPU was the best cpu on the market you've got to step back and think that to get the price down compromises had to be made, and the company decided the camera was the area they were going to cut back. Also it's not a terrible camera, it's decent, just not 2019/2020 amazing.

I've owned a Mix now since UK release, theres a few annoying bugs in software, things like when you quick launch the camera app it doesn't always save the photos, or getting pop ups from Xiaomis built in store in Chinese. I've really enjoyed it, the screen is rich in detail and has good brightness, the camera does take some tuning, but can produce amazing photos, and things like the dedicated selfie light are amazing for night shots with friends. It is on the thicker/heavier side because of the ceramic build by my goodness does it feel solid, most premium phone I've ever held. Could not recommended it enough, my friend has a OP 6T, and I've always been a fan of oxygen OS. But MIUI is actually world's from where it was, best phone purchase I've made for a while. Not to mention it's flashy to show the slide off to people ;P that's a conversation starter haha.Edit: with the recent MIUI update all the bugs I experienced have now gone! Even happier!

I bought this phone and am returning it. I powered it on and looked up the privacy policy. What you consent to is really quite scary. Things like banking and identification is collected and stored.

Bought at £249, absolute bargain.One of the best Android phones on the market.Camera is outstanding, I've had the Huawei P20pro which supposed to have a better spec but the image quality is easily better on the Mi Mix 3.Well designed, great performance. Battery Life not the best compared to other phones but should easily see you through a day with medium to heavy use.

Great phone for the price but poor battery life and okish camera and a wireless charger in the package... ended up selling it and buying the huawei mate 20x better camera bigger phone more powerful and excellent 2 day battery life

Paid 449£ with limited time amazon offer i can easily say as a phone geek this is the best phone for the price, camera top 3 in the world (check dxomark), selfie also top 3 in the world, innovative bezel-less design, flagship hardware.I made switch my girlfriend from her iPhone and she is in love with the phone, I can't even imagine how Mix 4 gonna be! God job Xiaomi!

Brought as a replacement for my much loved OnePlus 3t and what a replacement. Its a great with some really lovely features. It is however a bit on the heavy side in hand and the battery life isn't as good as some of the other devices on the market. But don't let those negatives detract from a great phone. The slider for the front facing camera is a nice touch, the finger print sensor works nicely
