Good looking phone. Nice features. Though I would say to anyone wanting to buy a xiaomi phone to please go through the xiaomi forum like the mi 8 and mi mix 3 forum. it is full of complains and issues. from what i understand xiaomi does not provide support or customer service. i read the forum just now again and see much much more than 3 months ago. whats happening?. auto brightness issue in 2019? i was nearly going to buy mi8 but decided to stay far after reading up on the bugs and hardware issues. i owe a oneplus and huawei as backup. oneplus support is among best i experienced. next phone will probably be sony. i want to give them a chance again. My adivce is to spend little more. do not see specs like cpu or ram. also see software. software optimisation is most important.
Please, are video slow motion avaible at 1080p@960fps or 720p@960fps?
Thanks
Nicolas F, 20 Feb 2019It's anyway too much more than anyone would need in just a smartphone.Its never enough if you play demanding games for long duration, especially because its inside a phone.

Whackcar, 20 Feb 2019I do. Single Core scores are terrible. It is actually behind last year's Exynos. That's really... moreWhen looking for improvement, look at the previous model from the same company. Samsung uses wide cores like apples in their mongoose cores.

Mongkok, 22 Feb 2019I live in HK. It is about 3000 HK$ ($380) here in HK for a new mi8 128GB. Refurbished 128G one... moreGo look up Fortress website
zamroni1, 23 Feb 2019it's not waterproof. that's why it can be cheaper than flagship of samsung and AppleYeah because making it waterproof costs 600$
Anonymous, 23 Feb 2019It’s not better after A12 chip iPhone XS Max antutu still the best 350K second between SD 855 ... moreBecause of ram size. 10 GB 8 GB ram scores much than A12's 4 gb ram. Difference is coming from this i think
Gary, 22 Feb 2019No OIS, but video sample is very stable. Strange. There is EIS in video up to 30fps

Anonymous, 22 Feb 2019Why snapdragon chipset have less single core multi core and gfx than competitors(in this case ... moreBecause they graphic chip is much better maybe? It is the same with a pc,it is better that you have a highend graphics card,then only a highend cpu.Your pc will run smoother with a highend graphics card than only a highend cpu.But if you have both,it is even better.Gfx bench is only cpu performance and Antutu is cpu(processor)and gpu(graphics card)!!!
Why snapdragon chipset have less single core multi core and gfx than competitors(in this case A12) but higher antutu ? Are they cheating? I noticed this in many snapdragon chipsets
Gary, 22 Feb 2019In Hong Kong, I saw Mi 8 on sale for 2100 HKD (US $267), 128G version. I live in HK. It is about 3000 HK$ ($380) here in HK for a new mi8 128GB. Refurbished 128G ones goes for $300 that is about 2400HK$. Either you are looking at stolen ones or just plain fake ones. Yes! They do make fake Xiaomi phones. Go figure!
