Xiaomi Mi MIX Review

Score: 76.2 / 100

Xiaomi Mi MIX is a very high quality cellphone launched in November 2016, including a really big 6.4-inches screen, a high-tech 2340 megahertz Quad-Core processor, and two cameras, a 16 mega-pixels back facing camera and a 5 mega-pixels front side camera.

Xiaomi decided to build this cellphone using a Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 MSM8996 Pro chip, including a very powerful 2.34 gigahertz Quad-Core CPU with a big 4 GB RAM memory. A key advantage of the Xiaomi Mi MIX is its big 128 GB internal storage and although it doesn't count with an SD memory slot, it it is more than enough to install hundreds of applications and even the largest games available nowadays without thinking about filling the cellphone.

This device is just 0.31 inches thick, taking it to the thinnest device's category. The Xiaomi Mi MIX is only 6.25" long and 3.22" wide, but it's still able to fit a a 6.4 inches screen. The Xiaomi Mi MIX is sold in 2 color options, black and white. Xiaomi appears to have forgotten about weight optimization in this 7.37 ounces phone. Talking about its aspect, this cellphone is mainly manufactured with Ceramic .

This cellphone is equipped with an amazing 6.4 inches display with a 1080 x 2040 resolution, making everything look vivid and colorful.

This cellphone features two cameras, a 16 mega-pixels back side camera and a 5 MP front-facing camera. Although it's 16 MP might appear amazing the back side camera sensor size is quite small which makes pictures have less details and worse lighting than you would expect. It is also able to shoot 4K 3840x2160 videos at 30 frames per second, and slow-motion videos up to 1280x720 (HD) up to 120 fps (4 times slower than reality).

This cellphone uses a big capacity 4400 mAh Li - Ion non-replaceable battery that can keep it running for several hours and even reach the end of the day without having to charge it at all. An issue to take into consideration is that the Xiaomi Mi MIX's battery is non-replaceable so you won't be able to replace it when it starts to get older, while with its 4400 mAh you will probably replace this device before that becomes an issue.

The Xiaomi Mi MIX features WiFi capability (and it can be shared with other devices around, as a mobile hotspot), 4G (LTE) high speed connection type and the fastest 3G internet connection, supported by HSPA technologies. The Xiaomi Mi MIX has 2 Nano SIM cards so it's able to use 2 different phone numbers and even different carriers at the same time.

This phone also features a wide range of useful features as Fingerprint Reader, NFC, Bluetooth (4.2 ) and GPS Localization, and plenty of sensors like Light Sensor, Proximity Sensor, Accelerometer, Gyroscope, Barometer and Compass.

This cellphone is being sold for 590 dollars, not cheap for a cellphone this level. The Xiaomi Mi MIX is definitely very appropiate for you no matter whether you will use it as a social cellphone, want it to take many photographs, want a phone for work or are looking for a phone for gaming.
