THIS GUY AGAIN, seriously though I actually have this phone on T-Mobile US, South Carolina Upstate area. It connects at 4G LTE in almost every place my wifes Samsung S7 Edge does. Durability wise you have to keep in mind its slippery and needs a case if for anything else to keep a grip on it. Screens fantastic, connections on par with US models and the storage /ram is unequalled currently. Had a mate 9 just before it and there really worlds apart. Now the camera is MEH, be prepared for that - its not bad just MEH. Everything else is really good, bonus it has built in equalizer for head phone playback [which means I didn't need to root it to put viper on].

I use the shipped Chinese official, google apps all installed with no issues. You can buy the S8+ if you want to step down in storage, ram and over all screen to phone. Personally the S8+ and the LG 6 are basically the same compromised high price devices. But its your money, both break fast when dropped also.

Haven't had a single head ache out of the Mi Mix or the MIUI [been using it on other devices for years]. Shoot me questions if you want.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] jr313:
Thank you all for your posts they have been helpful. I definitely wouldn't buy another Samesung ever again. I do love rooting and romming my phones, I have been following the ROM section and yesterday when I checked up on it I seen the additions of lineage and RR both I ran on my Nexus 6P and OnePlus 3T. Those were a big deciding factor for me because I can't live without my aosp, and now with the reassurance of LTE working I think I will be jumping in on this beast.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] MadCow809:
Go for it. It's one of the best device I've ever owned.

Don't worry about it when people say that they are having trouble with softwares that are not "localised or optimised". They don't know what they are talking about. The ROM is not really an issue at all, just flash to third party ROM like EPIC Rom, or you can use Xiaomi's Global Rom.

And don't be misguided, you don't need a MI account to use any Xiaomi device, that includes the MI MIX.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] ekierans:
This is my second Xiaomi phone and I'm running off the stock Chinese Rom which I have no issue with. There's no need to create a MI account to use this phone.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] xchatter:
Here is my opinion->

- The phone is great in build quality with the most premium material(ceramic);

- It has huge amount of storage(I have 256GB);

- It has a lot of RAM(6GB for me);

- It has the best Android iteration - MIUI;

- It has quite some innovations brought at once in terms of tech;

- It has great battery life;

- It is too big;

- It has the worst camera I've had for quite some time;

I will stick to mine for the good reasons, but really regret for the camera. :)

Make your math and good luck.

P.S.

If you buy one, install Camera FV or some other app. You will get far better shots.

P.S.2

Don't mind the comments about that this is for chinese market only, or the MIUI account is bad....etc. The phone works perfectly on most places(but still do a check for your country) and MIUI is great performer with lot's of cool stuff. I am using their system since my Samsung Galaxy Nexus
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Nikos2k:
The problem with MIUI is not that it doesn't perform well.

It may still be on Android 6 and it is missing the enhancements of API 24 and API 25 but it has other additional features that compensate for this.

The problem is that it is closed source and you cannot know what the code does in the background, and whether it sends data back home. But thank god, there are now ports of LINEAGE and RESSURECTION REMIX roms. So no reason not to get the device from a software perspective.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Phaze1585:
Well, you got a lot ppl here telling you some good, some, but here my 2 cents. I love the phone! I love the big screen, I dont use the camera so I dont care, I like the call quality. Its cool being that there is no earpiece yet, you can still hear the ppl youre talking to. You may have to turn the volume all the way up in certain situations, but its fine. I love the fluidity, moving around the phone is very snappy, I never have any issues. I do play Pokemon Go, a lot, and that isnt as smooth as it is on the iPhone, but its not bad. It did freeze on me when I dropped a lucky egg and went through to try and evolve as many Pokemon as I could. The battery life is the BEST IVE EVER HAD on a phone before... well, maybe the battery life on the Nokia Lumia 1520 was better, but I cant recall. Now, EMUI as a whole isnt bad, it really isnt! I am currently using stock, chinese ROM. and as far as I know, im on the latest firmware. But, as soon as I get my hands on a Windows based computer, im going to root it and install a custom ROM. Ive heard Epic is supposed to be the best, but im the type of guy that will flash a few ROM's before I settle. I could go on and on about this phone as a daily driver, but, I really do like it. If you have any specifics, hit me up and id be more than willing to answer your questions. But long story short, I love the phone.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Tangopro:
Don't do it!

You're gonna get addicted, especially to the screen and build materials! Have seen tear-down videos, and even the inside is beautiful! I rotate to different phones often and you will find yourself wanting when using phones after this one. Questions will subconsciously creep into your head when you go back to a different phone; ie. "why is there a bar at the top of this phone?""why does the back of this phone scratch so easily?" Its like seeing a slice of the future in a dream and then waking up to a disappointing reality as you grab that iOS or Pixel device. You've been warned.

;)...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] juggaknot77:
I recently picked one up, I have the Chinese Rom version, 256gb 6gig of ram. I've been using it for a month now in CA and NY and I can say without a shadow of a doubt that this is the best device I have ever owned, hands down, nothing comes close. I honestly haven't had a issue with the camera but I don't take many shots with the phone so I don't care. As for MIUI I really like it, as a 1st time user of it, it has a very different feel and look to regular stock android which is very refreshing to me. You end up purchasing one, you will not regret it.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] addicted2phones:
I've also had the phone great phone but I'm one of those people who likes to change phones every few months.

MIUI was great to use and if you get board just us a different launcher, now only thing you need to know if your staying on Chinese build is disabling a few power saving features to get push notifications like what's app, email etc

My only issue letting it go was I wanted the 7.0 to use 2 app support and I really didn't like the notification tray, tried exposed but couldn't change it the way I wanted. Again this will probably not bother you but overall it's a great phone once you fiddle around the software.

Pros and cons

I've had my Mi Mix (International stock rom, 6gb, 256gb) for a few days. I got it on sale on Gearbest for $606! Here's some pros and cons so far:

Pros:

-I'm on AT&T and I get 4g LTE all the time in my area.

-Insane amount of storage. I can't imagine ever maxing this thing out.

-A very good screen (though not as colorful or as sharp as what you'll find on Samsung's new phones).

-Excellent performance (though again, not quite as snappy as the S8+, which my wife owns).

-The most beautiful device I have ever held! Pictures do not do it justice. It is simply exquisite.

-The camera is plenty good for my purposes (taking pictures of my kids when we're on outdoor adventures).

-Watching videos and playing games on that bezel-free screen is awesome!

Cons:

-MIUI does have a bit of a learning curve.

-You have to change battery and notification settings quite a bit to get push notifications working properly (though this only takes 15 minutes to do).

-I had issues with text messages for a couple days before I found a fix. Now they work perfectly.

-The phone is very slippery.

-Ceramic, while very scratch resistant, shatters easily. (I'm using the provided leather case most of the time.)

-Despite the tiny bezels, the phone is still big and heavy. There's no way to make a 6.4 inch screen feel small in the hand.

-Call quality, while adequate, is nowhere near as clear as on my Moto Z or my wife's S8+. It sounds like the other person is on speaker phone.

-The camera, while fine for me, would never be good enough for my wife (she has a blog and needs professional-quality images, which she really can get with her S8+).

All in all, the pros definitely outweigh the cons FOR ME. But they might not for everyone. I hope this helps.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] santor:
Hey I'm using this phone since Feb and I'm loving it. Only drawback is camera, if that's not a deal breaker for you, then you would love it too. I would suggest you to wait a bit because mi mix 2 would be soon released as per rumours, it's supposed to have the same screen size and bezel less design with SD 835 and possibly a better camera , dual camera as per leaks. Maybe the only drawback would be using MIUI until custom roms begin to develop. Miui is not bad though. Presently I'm using RR ROM and the phone feels so good to use.

As for the next question. Lithium = mi mix. Hydrogen = mi max . Both are different phones.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] jr313:
So I pulled the trigger everyone. Should be here by Thursday or Friday this week. Thank you for all the feedback it did help to make my mind up on joining this community. I been reading on unlocking and rooting already and will be flashing either one of the aosp roms as soon as it is in my hands.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] hassonrashad:
Thats awesome

I'mnew to XDA and I have this phone. It works on all top 3 carriers in the USA. Verizon, ATT, and TMobile. Personally I have tried all the roms the day they come out and I always go back to Global Release 8.2.1.0. I can use Samsung pay and Android on my device. Like someone said earlier: Best device ever. People with their Samsung S8's put that phone down, I was told by an AT&T person that it was the most beautiful phone he's ever seen. That compliment is what I love hearing aboput the Mix.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] juggaknot77:
When you get it, let us know what you think. I'd like to hear your thoughts on the Mix. Personally for me I usually run through devices like water, phones usually don't last more than a month or 2 for me but the Mix is the only device I can say without even thinking twice that I will hold on to for a very long time.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] alberto8523:
Hello everyone!

Ordered Mi Mix 256GB today, I'm counting the hours!! :)

I've seen there are many custom ROMs to try (rr, lineage, etc)

Before I've had a Oneplus 3T, great smartphone, but this seems amazing

I haven't problems with dimensions (I've big hands :) ) and I've ever used a tpu cover with every smartphone I've had.

Some suggestions before starting using it?

Which model do you have, Euro or Chinese?

I kept the chinese rom and installed gapps through the xiaomi apps store, pretty easy and straight forward.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] caniranges:
Dude, dont you realiase that you can simply log out of your account on the phone and factory reset before selling? This is very obvious.

The phone is for enthusiasts who have the capacity to solve problems.

If you want an easier product, why not just use an iphone

But if you wanna ride on the wild side, this is THE phone
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] AsnNasser:
Don't waste your money

This phone is a cheap overpriced peace of phone. For $550-$660 I would just spend more for a well-built phone like GS8.

Even the price of this phone is dropping rapidly, not suprised if it will be sold for $200 after two months.

Also the software is terrible. If you chose to use Lineage OS, you will basically have the same software as 6 years old phone that run Lineage 7 but in a bigger screen.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Nikos2k:
Then wait two months and buy it for $200

The LineageOS Rom for MIX is based on Android release 7.1.2_r8
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] AsnNasser:
That is what I'm gonna do. Buy S8+ and wait two months and get it for $200 as a side phone.

Android release 7.1.2_r8 can run on galaxy s3 if not s2.

I hate Chinese bloatware, so I will install an European ROM.

It isn't a problem for me to unlock bootloader, so I can install any ROM I want.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Nikos2k:
So?

I don't really get your point

You said that the LineageOS that MIX runs is six year old. Android 7 is six years old?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] mattans:
I just bought a mi mix and I love it. I am in Canada and it works in all the same places my note 5 did.

I don't even mind the software as is.

I would entertain a room that was stock Android if someone ever figures that out.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] AsnNasser:
Not the Rom

I mean that LineageOS that MIX runs can run on a six years old phone. Same SOFTWARE features.

---------- Post added at 06:02 PM ---------- Previous post was at 05:54 PM ----------

Think about it as a 2011 $40 phone can use a Rom that you use in a 2017 $600+ phone.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] Nikos2k:
Sorry, I still don't get the usefulness of any such comparison.

My 15 years old Huyndai runs on the same 95 octane petrol as a new 2017 Porsche. Does this mean they are comparable ?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] AsnNasser:
Mi Mix is a phone

When you compare the lineage that runs on galaxy s3 and on the Mi Mix. You get the SAME features, same apps, same themes, etc.. So you basically got the bigger screen and better performance, BUT the features are the same. Got me?

---------- Post added at 12:17 AM ---------- Previous post was at 12:09 AM ----------

I know it is a nice phone but the software is not good and if you just change it to RR, you will just ruin the phone even more. RR is running on a lot of older devices with the same features, so nothing special that you will have except for the hardware.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Questions & Answers] VerucaSalt:
Glad to hear OP got the phone.

I picked one up just last week too. Incredible looking device with a not great camera.

Nothing else really comes close for media consumption or wow factor.

I've wanted something like this since I gave up the Sony XZU years ago. Same size screen without bezel central.

By the way, I'm coming to this from the Pixel XL and I'm not missing the XL at all.

[Sony Xperia T, TL, TX, V] SMessy:
I use my Xperia T for handling the verification codes sent by some websites, mainly so I don't encounter issues if the phone was lost.

The Xperia keyboard app stopped working and I was getting by using a different app, but it was annoying me so I decided to re-flash the 'LT30p_9.2.A.0.295_CE_Skyfall' stock rom I was already using back onto the phone.

For some reason the FlashTool v0.0.23.1 does not recognise the FTF file ??

So I thought I would flash the Lineage Mint Rom , however something went wrong and the phone will now only get to the Sony logo and stay there. Controls would not respond so I took the back off and disconnected battery for 20 minutes.

I then downloaded a generic version 'LT30p_9.2.A.0.295_Generic IT' which I managed to start to flash on to the phone except it failed on "Processing of system.sin failed with errors".

Downloaded a number of other LT30p roms, some were not recognized by Flashtool two were but failed with same error.

I managed to flash the generic rom by excluding system.sin but phone remains the same. I tried flashing just the system.sin which fails with same error.

Any suggestions or ideas would be greatly appreciated.

:confused:

<Solved>

Un-installed current FlashTool and re-installed older v0.9.18.3.

All FTFs recognised by older version

disconnected battery and successfully Flashed my preferred FTF.

Reconnected battery Phone boots and works fine.

:)

I am still not making any progress with problem.

I have tried to hard brick reset method of disconnecting the battery and grounding the third test point pad - the phone responds but gives an undefined error.

Would protecting the phone with Avast anti-theft be preventing the system.sin flashing ?
