    Vegetaholic, 12 Dec 2017Just buy S9 and you will be fineS9 is going to be a beast.

    And tbh if he is short on money, S8 is also a better option than Xiaomi... quality of built and features... not just chip like Xiaomi does.

    Also no security breaches and pre installed spyware like with Xiaomi and other Chinese phones...

      Far123, 12 Dec 2017Are Xiaomi Mi Phone sofware greater and update faster than samsung?Some parts are. and some are not. there is no definite way to say which skin is better.
      I can pretty much conclude SE 8.1 VS MiUi 9.0 though.
      SE 8.1 Over MiUi 9.0
      Youth inspired appearance, unique gestures, lively appearance.
      Costumisable font. (WITH NO NEED for Rooting/APK!)
      Ability to hide apps in the app drawer.
      impressively ample notification center. (basically the ability to add bars like the samsung connect, quick connect, etc.)
      very clean and intuitive camera app.
      GORGEOUS music player! (albeit annoying if you have edge display. -_-)
      MiUi 9.0 over SE 8.1:
      Clean, Easy-to-understand interface.
      very informative status bar.
      natural gestures.
      beautifully designed notification panel. (albeit annoying if you want it minimised but not hidden in appearance)
      wide (AND I MEAN WIDE) selection of camera modes. skilfully built UI.
      Music player is intuitive, gets the job done and does not try to impress in any way. elegant and pure.
      All in all scores:
      SE 8.1: 8.2/10 Imo.
      MiUi 9.0: 8.3/10 Imo.
      as you can see the difference is margin one percent.

Also rumers off a new sort off 12 minute fast charging that holds the battery power for longer.

            Astonishing phone. Will have all the fetures off Apple 8, but no wireless charging no missing headphone jack and includes bezeless screen design at less then 1/2 the price.

                              Bixby was a bad idea from Sammy.Also the fingerprint in galaxy S and note 8.

                                  Well, losing the bixby button is definitely a positive, it would be great to see this carry over to the S9’s & Note9, along with a centered and lowered FPS, instead of the idiotic position it now occupies.

                                      I really don't like most of the midrange Samsung because of the side speaker.

                                        Great phone except chip set but rest assure you can buy a one plus phone in the cost with which this smartphone is going to launch
