If you see this lab screen review mi 8 amoled should be better rather than mix 2s ips. But in reality if you see side by side you will found mix 2s have better colour reproduce. Very strange

Vegetaholic, 25 Dec 2018Most disappointing Xiaomi flagship ever, shitty termal managment and avatage camera, better avoid itDo you own one? What are you doing when the phone's temperature rises? Are you using a custom ROM?

I am about to buy one but (I don't buy very often smartphones)....What was bugging me with my old Xiaomi MiNote pro 2 was the white noise when video recording and how easy the sound distorted when recording music live - were these issues resolved in Mi8?

Funny thing: my Mi 8 uses the same lens for photo (1x and 2x), only portrait mode will use the second lens.
Simply tested with my finger finger. Keep it for a lens. The top lens is the portrait lens, the bottom one for the Photo, hitting 2x means zoom. That's why it's not really sharp, it's half resolution.
That also explains the small blurred lag in the Photo app going from Portrait to photo mode.
Confirmed by exif info:
Top lens (portrait) has focal length: 5.2mm
Bottom lens (Photo 1x and 2x) has focal length: 4.216
Is Xiaomi selling different models, or is everybody mistaken with the telephoto thing. It's nowhere 2x focal length.

My Mi 8, which I've had for three months does not have video EIS... I mean the option is there ("stabilization") but turning it on has no effect. How are they doing this??

I love this phone -
I just bought mine two weeks ago - having never owned a Xiaomi before - and I have to say I'm impressed.
I've always only ever used iPhone- and this phones build quality is every bit as good.
Performance is stellar - the Snapdragon with the 6 gigs of RAM - there's nothing I can do to this thing to slow it down it just flies.
The only thing I would suggest is that you pay attention to the size of the phone in the hand it's not a very small phone compared to your standard iPhone or even Galaxy.
So the size has taken the most to get used to -
But otherwise I would highly recommend

The GPS doesn't make use of the dual band yet.
It may be solved in future firmware releases but till now most users get very low accuracy, worse than with other phones, near 16 meters. The accuracy increases when you are moving because of the algorithms used.
Only users in China get good results, but not because of the dual band (L1+L5) but because they use the Chinese Beidou signal. Anyway, far from the alleged 30cm accuracy.
