Well fat isn't a compliment...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
Beginning to look more like 6.2. But I hate going by diagonal. What is more important is length and width. For example the Note 8 has 6..3 inch screen but width, measured by me, is too narrow at 2.75". Where my Huawei Mate 9 is 5.9" and its width is 2.9". I like my screen as close to 3" as possible. So 6.2 might work for me depending on the aspect ratio. Have to wait and see.

Btw, if it makes your cat feel better here is a picture of my slightly rotund cat...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
Just did a quick calculation. Assuming the pixel info is correct (2960x1440) AND screen is 6.2 then width is about 2.71. No go for me. Hope not true.

To good to believe in...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
If this is true the Mix 2 will have a very different look. More like Note 8. Diagonal 6.2" (Mi Mix 2), 6.3" (Note 8), same aspect ratio and resolution 2960x1440. Might as well get Note 8. Very disappointed (if true). For me, Xiaomi nailed it with original Mix. Just needed better camera and additional carrier frequencies.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] lesscro:
Android 8 oreo is impossible... device will be launched quickly after press presentation with MIUI 9 !

Bezel is more than bezel, it looks like a road around screen...

i hope it's fake or i will buy a Mate 10 (not a big fan of kirin but...) or another who will have a magical touch of what i want like my MIX !!

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
As much as there is a lot to like about the Mi Mix and Mi Mix 2. What honestly keeps me from buying is a lack of LTE band support for North America. Band 12, 20, 66, and 69 are going to be essential in the coming years.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] t-mizzle:
Haven't been excited for a new phone since the HD2.

All the talk about power saving features and technologies is great but in real life usage, mAh capacity is king. My opo is getting old, I've started researching a new phone a month ago, so far I was disappointed with all the recent flagships, a high end phone needs a 4000 mAh+ battery.

Mi mix 2 ticks all the boxes I personally set for a new phone. I'll have to import but that is part of the charm, having a phone that very few others have.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] lesscro:
I change my wife's phone by a Mi Max 2... don't need a powerfull phone if u want a big battery life and she's be dispointed by screen... anyway Mix is strange but different vision of phone... now it's basic but when it has been out... damn, baby.... :cowboy:

Anyway, we'll know in 4 days :D
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
Right now I'm not too optimistic.. Well, as they say, hope for the best, plan for the worse. So what would be a plan B. That is, what phones are coming out with as big a screen as Mi Mix?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] 954wrecker:
None, everyone loves Samsung's ****ty tall skinny 18:9 ratio. I hate it and sold that POS S8+ in 3 days. It feels tiny with the stupid curved and narrow sides. Felt like half the usable screen real estate compared to the mi mix.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] t-mizzle:
The various mi mix 2 leaks differ so much, I am not worried about a single render, there has been enough trolling already on many sites about this phone. My only concern is how long it will take for the "early adopter tax" to go away. We know that the mix at launch sold for double it's going price right now.

If the screen size is indeed reduced, the side effect is increased battery life. I won't shed a tear if it's 6.2" or 6", that's nitpicking. Show me another phone with a >90% screen to body ratio featuring a high end SoC and a >4000mAh battery. There are none so a slight size reduction is irrelevant but we'll know for sure in less than a week. I've had my opo for a little over 3 years now, getting tired of it now but nothing else on the market is even remotely interesting. V30 raised an eyebrow, S8 was a meh, nothing else does it for me...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Hahaha :)

Haven't had an S8+ in my hands more than 2 minutes in shops and totally agreed...

And as our mate said, sadly all upcoming big fellows I know of are planned with smaller screens, or bigger but with the 18:8'whatever-plus-inches ratio. None with 6,4 except for that rumor of Axon Something with folded screen which sounds very unlikely to ever see daylight...

---------- Post added at 03:05 PM ---------- Previous post was at 03:02 PM ----------

V30 looks solid but good luck rooting that thing, ask the guys with G6 stuck on stock and selling as crazy...

6'2 wouldn't be so terrible but damn, 6'5 and I pay first day :)
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
Actually worse than you say. Note 8 is 18.5:9. Almost like a Hershey Chocolate Bar!
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] t-mizzle:
Yeah, that was my point. I've been here for 7 years, haven't even logged on the last two, there was nothing exciting enough for me to talk about. I've missed that excitement since the HD2 and only the mix and now mix 2 came close to bringing it back. Every site I go to I see people masturbating to ip67 ratings as if all they do is sit in pools all day long and want to use their phones under water. High end phones with minimal bezels, good battery, unlocked bootloaders and easy rooting is what matters.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jclopval:
Agree with you. I was hoping for same design but with dual cam, more frequencies and snapdragon 835 or above.

Frame leak, seems legit:
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
If you are in the market for a new phone, for a plan B, this might be a good choice. Probably better camera and supporting software than Mix 2, good battery life, frequencies should cover most need globally. Kerin 970 processor should be very powerful. Just don't expect much in flashing roms and such.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Mmm mate why do not expect much in the way of custom roms and stuff? Don't huawei devices have developer movement?

Now that I remember I had a P9 lite for a while and was really nightmarish to root and there were not many options in the way of custom roms but I assumed it was different with Mates and the big guys...
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] t-mizzle:
Thanks for the suggestion, P10 does seem to be a viable alternative. From my understanding, Kirin is a good SoC however ROM development for Kirin based phones is hampered since Snapdragon is "mainstream" and gets most attention.

More efficient display tech and die shrinks to smaller transistors reduce power demands, alleviating the need for big batteries on paper but if there is a lesson that real world usage keeps teaching me, it's to avoid batteries/phones with <4000mAh capacity. A smaller battery may be sufficient when it's new but as it ages...

Ceramic body with a little curve bit rounded

Snapdragon 835

Way better camera they claim same camera as mi6

---------- Post added at 03:03 AM ---------- Previous post was at 03:01 AM ----------

They are claiming the sound is much better when talking on the phone

Global bands supports 43 bands almost every bands in world
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] DateAPilgrim:
I guess it's just a needs/preference based thing. I personally hate the curved style, the 835 processor won't change much for me, the camera still looked bad, and the bands didn't matter that much to me since I live in Asia.

I can see how some of those things might appeal to other people for sure, but these improvements definitely don't feel like the breakthrough I think some people where expecting.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
Really disappointed. I won't be getting a Mix 2. The rest of the specs are not a real improvement. Camera sorry guys but is not bad in Mix, just need some mods and know how to use manual. SD 821 or 835 no idea if that is a huge leap in performance and/or energy management and therefore battery but those are already great in Mix. But SCREEN... Oh that was key. Less than 6" and 18:9. Awful. That's smaller than S8+ or Note8. It's like rumored Mate 10... Not sexy. Mainstream. Really not good.

I'll have to wait for some other guys to come along with something really actually exciting.

---------- Post added at 08:41 AM ---------- Previous post was at 08:38 AM ----------

I mean, it sure is a beauty and a flagship and still much more exciting and nice than samsungs or huawei to my test. I love the ceramic body. And aesthetically it looks awesome. Just a pity they decided to go with samsung's and lg's lead with the 18:9 ratio and smaller display...

Increased LTE compatibility is great, I could live with the screen size reduction but the battery capacity drop is significant. Hopefully the competition starts with this phone, with a bigger battery, camera flush with the body, removes on screen buttons and puts them in the bezel.

I really want to compromise and make this work but it's hard with so many downgrades compared to the first mix. Whhhhyyyyy?

Again, someone from the competition needs to use this phone as a starting point, jam a bigger battery in there, make the camera flush with the body, put on screen buttons into the bezel instead, then shut up and take my money!

I am very disappointed with the reduced screen size! One of the selling points of the original Mi Mix was the massive awesome screen. More global band support though should help this phone sell. If it has band 71, that just might be enough to sway me away from the LG V30+ depending on the price.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] 954wrecker:
The screen is the reason I kept the mi mix and sold the S8+.

This is just giving up way to much screen and battery IMO.

man, really disappointing
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
I definitely agree! One of the biggest selling points of the Mix line was the screen size. 6.4" was a very comfortable size for me. I can easily one hand a Nexus 6, which is about the same width of the Mi MIX 2. From what I have seen, there is no band 66 or 71 listed for the Mi MIX 2. It looks like I will be picking up an LG V30+ instead. Better camera setup, band 71 (T-Mobile's 600MHz spectrum), HiFi DAC, and IP68 in essentially the same size as the Mi MIX 2.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jaime4272:
I'm very disappointed of Xiaomi for not giving us a phone worthy upgrade to, I was really hoping for a smaller chin instead we've got a smaller phone without head phone jack and a smaller battery, what a disgrace. Well I'm sticking with my mix for another year, I love it?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] albertoduqe:
V30 looks solid but good luck with root though :(

I sold a G6 before getting the Mix for that reason, on march I believe, and they still have no root and looking like they won't. V30 is probably on the same ship.

This looks good. I'm waiting to see the Huawei Mate 10 before buying new phone as I prefer to not replace phones every 3 months!

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jcsww:
The 6.4" screen size is what I consider ideal as well. To have a phone that doesn't feel too small for my hands with a light case on it really is nice. It truly was the best phone screen size where you didn't feel like you were losing out to a tablet for media.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] ChodTheWacko:
The thing is, 6.4" is too big if the screen has big bezels.

There's a maximum phone length I can tolerate before I can't put in the front of my pockets anymore.

That's the beauty of the MIX 1 - same length as most phones, including the iphone 7+, but a signifigantly bigger screen.

An IOS X type of phone would be great - if it was just bigger.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] james1089:
Just seen side by side comparison of cameras, v30, note 8 and mix2, the mix 2 did alot better than expected I actually preferred some of the shots to the other phones.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mscion:
Yes, overall size and clunkiness is important. Fortunately I wear baggy pants so I would still go for a new 6.4 phone having bezel bigger than Mix. What I'm looking for is the larger screen with excellent specs (e.g. camera and so forth). For me, the Mix fails on the latter and the Mix 2 fails on the former. I suppose I shouldn't complain too much about a phone with a 5.9" screen (still large by many standards), but once it has shrunk down from 6.4" to 5.9" size, the Mix 2 doesn't have enough of a unique quality to separate it from many other phones. They are all beginning to look alike.

If you saw comparison on-line would you please provide a link. Thanks!
