            So I settled with the Mi9 in the end. Gave away OnePlus "Never Settle" 6T and Galaxy "Heavy brick" Note9.

            It's so hard to find a flagship phone, as i search for this in legendary Phone Finder:
            - water resistant = yes
            - SD card = yes (oops!)
            - RAM = >=6GB
            - wireless charging = yes
            - fingerprint = anywhere but NOT in the back
            - rootability and community support !
            - decent battery !
            - weight and looks !

            Water resistant: all of them are
            SD card: Samsung only, but can live with it thanks to USB/USB-c micro flash
            RAM: is ok everywhere, OnePlus typically giving more
            Wireless charging: Unfortunately 6T ommited Qi 5W, 10W, 20W and also QC 2, 3 and 4. I'm NOT going to buy specific proprietary chargers and put them to home, car, office, parents house etc. No, i'm going to use the Qualcomm standard. Can't care less if they come up with 100W charger next time. Xiaomi is now not only fastest CPU/GPU pack, but also charging device. I wasn't sure but the Mi9 is backward compatible with all forementioned standards a the insane 20W charging is now standard too.
            Fingerprint: what stupid idea to put it in the back. That time is over. Now we got ugly notches... I actually would prefer S10E side button as on-display is NOT reliable yet.
            Rootability: Kudos to OnePlus! Easy and everything works afterwards. Extremelly annoying process for Xiaomi - terrible ROM, terrible unlock process, but all is working. I do recommend AOSP - far better. Samsung is not that easy anymore, S10 situation looks ugly and you WILL lose some functionality. Huawei etc is completely out of question here.
            Battery: Kudos to OnePlus, clear winner. But you can optimize Mi9 a lot. In the end achieved some extremely good results on wifi. Samsungs have alwas BAD battery.
            Weight and looks: Note9 has terrible weight, but kudos to S10E and S10 for keeping ideal 150g! 6T is heavy, Mi9 is acceptable. Mi9 looks sexiest, very nice thin body.
            Price: doesn't matter but hey, Mi9 is crazy cheap.

              Mi9 (128gb), View 20 or p30 (not pro). Which one is better in term of camera, gaming and battery performance, it is very difficult for me to choose. Almost same price in my country.

                  Advantages I want to point out with Mi9 over P30 is that Mi9 has wireless charging (I no longer use cable, I switched to wireless charging 2 years ago, and haven't gone back since, so if I was to buy a new phone, P30 wouldn't be considered), and the fact that huawei no longer unlocks bootloaders on their phones.

                        Anonymous, 24 Apr 2019P30 8gb ram 128 gb and freebuds and car charger for 690$.. and mi 9 6gb ram 128 gb for 700$ in... moreThese significant price increase on Mi9 would make me not buy Mi9 because this would make me think Xiaomi overpriced its phones in my country (For example, the 450€ Mi9 is 5000TRY while 680€ S10e is 5500TRY in Turkey. 150€ Note7 is 2200TRY. Therefore I will never buy a Xiaomi phone in my country as every Xiaomi phone is overpriced in my country just like these examples). Apart from my personal idea, P30 seems like the better option. P30 has a slightly bigger battery, better selfie camera (not important for my expectations) and the must-have headphone jack. On the other hand, EMUI is strict on the user and Huawei phones doesn't support Gcam. Kirin980 falls behind of SD855 especially on GPU (the differences wouldn't reflect on real life for now but the GPU superiority of SD855 may make SD855 better for long-term use.) You can consider G8 ThinQ and S10e, too.

                            I have no idea why the reviewers use only the same boring places where the photos were taken?
                            I request that you guys should take any kinds of photos instead of boring buildings.
                            Please!
