Hello guys
I don't know why this phone wasn't in my radar when I purchased the Redmi Note 10 pro maybe I was very obsessed with budget deal and 120hz but frankly after 1 year of usage I start disliking this phone I rarely use the selfie camera and I am on 60hz most of the time to save battery also the phone is a bit big for my hand and pocket.
I found the Xiaomi Mi 9T Pro to have a similar offering in addition to headphone jack, but do you think it's wise to switch from 2021 phone to 2019 ? taking into consider that my phone also lose like 100 euros in value already.

Hi guys,
1) I'm able to buy the Mi 9 or the Mi 9T Pro for about the same price. Which one should I choose if I value camera quality?
2) Does Gcam work on them both?
Overall and with more features (cause camera is about the same) go for Mi9.
If you dont like the waterdrop notch go for Mi9T Pro...
But in my opinion Mi9 have wireless charging, ir blaster - future proof.
...the good about Mi9T pro is higher battery and back design is more appealing to the eye, but more thicker than mi9.
Wireless charging and ir universal remote are very useful for me. Plus the Mi 9 is thinner and lighter. So I went for the Mi 9.
But K20 Pro has a bigger battery and a headphone jack, so...
The other thing is I'm not a fan of the popup camera. When my phone is on the desk by my side, I prefer unlocking with face unlock, which instant on Mi 9.
But you can't go wrong with either.
Hello all !
I need some help!
I'm in need of a new phone and came to the conclusion I wanted a Xiaomi. After watching some video's I came to the conclusion I wanted the Mi CC9 (Mi 9 Lite) so I've just ordered the 64gb variant.
After doing some further research I've discovered I could've got a Redmi Note 8 Pro for only £8 more.
Do you think I should cancel my order and get the Note 8 Pro? The dust and splash resistant is something I could really do with as I hate the fear of potential water damage from rain.
Also even though the Note 8 Pro features a 4500 maH battery and the Mi 9 Lite only has a 4030 maH battery which do you think will last longer? Considering it has a bigger screen and a more demanding processor do you think that the 9 Lite battery will still be better?
Note 8 pro. CC9 doesn't have support for google cameras ( buffer 3 )
The note 8 pro has got a Mediathek processor which have (at least it's predecessors) been known for overheating and poor efficiency (mostly noticable when used very heavily). Some tests say the same but it's up to you if you believe them. Considering the screen size and amoled technology as well as the more efficient processor I'd actually think that the cc9 (mi 9 lite) has better battery life.
I've actually ordered the mi 9 lite which will arrive in around 2-3 weeks. Then I'll be able to give further information. The reason I've gotten the mi 9 lite instead of the 8 pro are:
1. Screen size (didn't want such a big screen)
2. Amoled display
3. In display fingerprint sensor
4. Snapdragon processor
5. Battery life on both phones will definitely get me through the day so that wasn't really anything I've kept in mind whilst deciding
Hope this helps
Good question!
I'm not really knowledgeable yet, but I have read somewhere that the Mediatek processor ( Note 8 pro ) doesn't have much support for custom Roms.
Once the development of LineageOS for the Mi 9 lite has started seriously, I would love to get one.
Or it is best to wait for a bit......

I have to buy a new phone and have to choose between the Mi 9 of the Mi 9t pro. I prefer the 9t pro but red that they have stopped producing it, my question is: wil the mi 9t pro receive updates as long as the mi 9 or not ?

Actually, I think both are out of production.
Remember that Mi9 T Pro has been presented 6 months later Mi9, so Mi9 is the older one.
I have a Mi9, it's a good device, snapdragon 855 is super fast and every app work fine.
If I should buy a device today, I would go with the Mi9 T Pro, here are the main big advantages:
Newer
Bigger battery (4000 vs 3300)
Popup camera (Mi9 has a notch on the screen)
And about updates yes, quite similar.
Both are on MIUI 11 and will receive MIUI 12 in the next months. So, no difference.

And , better battery life too
none of them, go for the Mi 9 Pro 5G if you can find it...have many pro's over Mi9 and even more than Mi9T Pro.
Mi9 Pro 5G is a Mi9 with bigger battery and 5G, with the same wireless charging and IR blaster and AMOLED like Mi9, is a improved Mi9, if i know today i go for Mi9 PRo 5G and not Mi9 only because battery is gettin short, like 5/6h SoT after 9 months.
Hi.
I had Mi 9t pro and I switch to Mi 9.
Reasons Mi 9 has wireless charging, better set of camera. Wide camera has autofous. Very rare feature, awesome for macro photos. Better telephoto camera.
Worst battery, missing jack 3.5 (I do not care).
But because of smaller battery it has lower weight. 9TPro is little bit heavy.
Pop up camera on Mi 9t pro is good for uninterrupted display, but it is not so good for face recognition.
I do care for cameras and I really like wireless charging. So for me Mi 9 is better chooice
You can go for Mi 9 Pro instead. It's essentially Mi 9 with SD855+ and 700mAh bigger battery, the rest of the specs are similar if not the same.
The Mi 9T has a larger developer community.
I unlock using face detection, with mi9t pro that feature would be too slow/not practical
Hello everyone Should I consider buying the RN10 PRO now after 9 months of release or am I too late? the phone basically ticks the boxes for the things I want but does it have ads? or camera has become downgrade? Or battery problems? Or Should I get a 5g phone but here it is expected at least 2 years or even more. But what should I do https://showbox.tools/ https://speedtest.vet/
Edit Also I don't change phones much so this phone good for long-term like 2-3 years from now?

it's a value for money device . if gaming is not priority go for it
If 5G is not your priority, this is the best device in this price segment. I bought this phone 18 days ago, initially I was skeptical because of the 5G dilemma as 5G is not yet here in my country. Plus this device was 10 months old. But finally decided to go for a 4G phone.
Or you can go for Redmi Note 11 series if you want 5G. Most 5G phones in this price segment have a lot of cost cutting tho.
Redmi note 10 pro is a good phone. But at the same price, you can get Realme 8s 5G. Only you have to compromise with the display.

I assume some of you have upgraded from Mi 11/Mi 11 Pro/Mi 11 Ultra to 12 Pro. Do you feel any added value with 12 Pro over the Mi 11-series?
@thegios
yes, I have switched from Mi11T Pro to Xiaomi12 Pro. The Display is much better and it feels like my old S21 Ultra

Great! Thanks for you reply. At the moment I have Mi 11 Pro which is different from 11T Pro.
Any user of the standard Mi 11, Mi 11 Pro or Mi 11 Ultra who have tried 12 Pro?
I usually try out many different devices each year just for fun but if 12 Pro feels very similar to 11 Pro I may skip that one.

I have MI 11 and I bought 12 PRO. Except for the screen and processor (?), Mi 11 remains better than 12 Pro unfortunately,
12 PRO consumes battery faster and heats up quickly on games or GPS compared to MI11.
12 PRO I don't think it's worth the money

Sounds terrible. Mi 11 does not have impressive battery life, if 12 Pro is worse it must be really bad...
Better buy Mi 11
My Mi 11 just self-bricked due to MIUI 13. Not even shortening the testpoints was enough to save it. I just bought a Mi 12 Pro. My other option was a Pixel 6, but I hate the pixel series since my 3XL.
But for your own good, stay away from the Mi 11 series, mainly if you use the official ROMs. The self-bricking thing is really common, and well, it costed me 600$.

I have to disagree with that. I have read this many times before buying the Mi 12 Pro and was on the verge of not buying it because of that reason.
in my experience, the battery significantely lasts longer on the Mi 12 Pro.
it still could be better, but it is ok thanks to the 120w charging.
when I had about 3hrs SOT on my Mi 11 (had two devices, both had the same battery life), I have about 4hrs SOT on Mi12Pro. pretty much with the same settings, apps and usage.
but I also have to say that most of the phones I had, did not last over 4,5-5hrs SOT except of my old Mi Max 2

sadly the same happened for me. I just replaced the camera module after the autofocus was not working after it fell on the ground, about 5 days later it died. I normally used it (scrolled trough instagram) and then it hung up.
I did a reset via buttons and it never did anything after that. just gets warm when charging.
I didnt knew that this is a common thing. I now replaced the mainboard with one from a used mi11 with cracked screen. there are no solutions to fix/reflash the old board, huh?
I have a 11T Pro and also just got a 12 Pro.
The differences are minimal. Screen on 12 Pro is alot better and curved. It certainly has that galaxy feeling. The screen is more responsive and fingerprint touch helps with waking the phone up.
For everything else they are the same.
11T Pro has a bigger and better longer lasting battery. The performance of 11T pro is insane and in my opinion very on par to 12 pro.
I only choose 12 pro ( my other choice was OnePlus 10 Pro) because of the poor screen response on the 11T pro and a weak Virtual proximity sensor. If it wasn't for that I'd keep the 11T. It's the cheapest flagship phone on the market by far. Literally half the price of 12 pro
