[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] ChilliJesus:
I'm disappointed too

No 3.5mm jack

No OLED

and why!?! 5.99? I want at least 6.4 inch

The camera stands out

and a 1000mha smaller battery?

besides, I don't like the speaker upstairs either,

Only the band 20 support would be useful for me as a German.

But there I can also get a NOTE 8....

but now it will probably stay the good old mi mix 256 for a long time.

or the iphone 8
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] james1089:
No reason to buy 1 if you have the mix, thought it was going to be something special:(
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] ChodTheWacko:
If this is their idea of a better phone, then sadly I see my next phone being the Note 9.

For now I'm sticking with the Mix 1.

It's a notable drop in screen size from the Mix 1.

It's like 15% smaller (roughly 15.64 vs 16.93 sq inches).

Smaller than the galaxy note 8, although it's 'shorter'.

It's nice to see them fixing the major issues from the Mix1 (camera, speaker).

Hopefully it's more drop proof now, too.

But it's no longer the biggest screen/battery for a pocketable phone, and that's a major loss,

So now you ask - what's the point? It it really THAT much better looking than other phones?

Not really.

---------- Post added at 12:16 PM ---------- Previous post was at 12:07 PM ----------

I was a VERY early adopter of the Galaxy note 1, and I can assure you - the galaxy note 2 was significantly better than the galaxy note 1 and I can't recall a single negative. The note 1 was definitely a 'market test device' as there were NO large screen phones at the time. It was clunky as hell, while the note 2 was a wonderful phone

One arguable downside was the screen aspect ratio 'dropped' from 16:10 to 16:9, but they made the screen size bigger (5.3 to 5.5) to compensate and the overall screen size stayed the same..

I would have been nice for xiaomi to release a 'full size' 6.4 and the current 'smaller' version for people who REALLY want one handed use or whatever. I guess they don't have enough 'ceramic' capacity to do that. Really quite a shame. I imagine the screen to bezel ratio would be even higher on a larger phone.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jaime4272:
I'm also disappointed of Xiaomi I was hoping for a smaller chin instead we've got a smaller phone without head phone jack, that's messed up yo, I'm sticking with my mix till next year when they come up with a worthy phone to upgrade to. No head phone jack? now they are copying apple on that, damn you Xiaomi,
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] csabreu:
I'm bound to get the better products developed by phone manufacturers it seems :D... Oneplus One was an amazing phone and already is a legend, Mi Mix a stunning concept phone that set new grounds in the industry.

I'm glad I made the right choice 2 months ago and went for the 1st gen, instead of waiting for the next one and spend more cash for little to no improvements in what's definitely more crucial to me, i.e. screen size and battery than a better camera. Next gen SoC won't make much of a difference in daily use, since the SD821 is already a great performer. Bezels seem even larger than the 1st gen :(
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] oofol:
I got the Mi MIX in pre order so roughly 10 monts ago. Time files and I still feel like I would buy it a month ago.

The new mix did not bring in anything appealing to me... Samaller screen and no amoled... Smaller battery... the only two thing I like about it more than v1 is the metal frame and OIS..

No I will not buy it.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] ed.jeremy:
I'm disappointed too:

No P-OLED/AMOLED

No 2k/4k screen

Smaller batterry

Smaller screen size (not critical)

No way guys

Wrong way, china guys.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] benziii:
Seems like the top bezel is slightly larger on the new MIX. Cost of jamming a speaker in there I guess. I'm very content with the sound on the original anyway.

Special edition without 256gb??

Like the small rounded screen corners on the first. MI MIX 2 seems to have the same wide corners as the rest of the 2017 smartphone lineup.

Was never going to upgrade now anyway. Waiting for next 8XX chip + way....waaay to happy with my MIX.

Only compromise I would be ok with on the MIX 2 is the camera hump. OIS is sweet.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] angryharambe:
I have mix and mix 2 is absolutely terrible because it doesn't look like unique phone anymore. I got tired of charging my phone every evening, so a +4000 Mah battery was a nobrainer for me to get mix, now its ughhh.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] lisbon2004:
Yes, i'm very disappointed...

was hoping that could have been a decent replacement for Note 4 with promised 6.4 oled screen and 4K battery, but....

with IPS, without 3.5 jack, smaller 6.0 screen and without microsd card slot this phone is not even an option. Very sad.

Also the bezels look huge in comparison with the renders distributed by xiaomi to create hype, which has left a very disappointing feeling that you were promised one thing and offered a very different one...

at the end of the day, the phone did not meet all the hype created, and is a flop (imho)
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] shoeprano27:
all im gonna say is.... ill definitely stick to my original mi mix.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] KimUyLong:
Because some people (maybe alot) dont accep the 6.44' size. Their cant use, cant handle it. Then Xiaomi release Mix 2 to help their product come to more people and not to kill the Mix 1, smaller screen size make Mix 1 still alive.

But...the point is...Xiaomi next step...equal to turn back into their fan. I cant accept that. I want bigger screen..!! 6.44'..!! 7..!! But not... If the screent cant bigger.? I want better camera. Yes, they update it. But not enough. I dont care about snap 835. I care about 3400Mah battery. And yes...Mix still alive. Because I will stay with my Mix. My next phone is Note 8. I have hand-on it already. "Wow.! Beautiful". That all i can say. Bye bye mix 2. We will talk again when mix 3 release.

(Sorry about my bad English. But i really..!! Really want to talk about my dissapointed)
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] scdoyle:
It seems Xiaomi used the Mix 1 has a test prototype to see if the technology was feasible and if there was a demand for the bezel-less concept. Since then all the big manufacturers jumped on board too and so the Mix 2 appears to be Xiaomi's attempt to compete with a more mainstream design. This is clear from the smaller width and the use of the more traditional speaker earpiece. Unfortunately this means it no longer stands out or looks futuristic. I still love my Mix 1 but I still like to try the new models so am now on the fence whether to get the Mix 2 or the Essential. The all-ceramic limited edition is tempting as I am a sucker for build quality and advanced materials.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] adwinp:
#1: the screen size is a matter of personal preference; you can't please everyone.

6" might be the sweet spot for me in such a package.

#2: I like the fact that Xiaomi introduced another colour & diversified the choice of materials.

It's much harder to scratch a frame, however, most Mi MIX fails were devices which fell on a corner & cracked.

This shouldn't be an issue now with the aluminum frame. Ceramic is still there where it matters - the back.

#3: the camera was an epic fail on the original MIX, & an update to the IMX386 is welcome.

#4: epic fail on the form factor: a slim phone might be easier to hold, but as difficult to handle in 1 hand mode - example: reaching the top parts of the phone.

In addition, there is little to no content in 18:9, thus leading to letterboxing & waste of screen realestate.

#5: the drop in battery capacity to 3500mAh is a huge step back.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] vukovuko:
totally agree...

Battery, Headphone Jack, reduced screen size. Why did you remove all these major features, Xiaomi?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Bimchi:
What new color?

Same as Mix 1, black and white (special edition only)
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] mudnightoil:
Lack of AMOLED (combined with smaller battery), no 3.5mm and camera are all major disappointments.

The camera is weird to me. It's their flagship device, and they're using a much cheaper, inferior single camera module to the vastly cheaper Mi5S (IMX378, which the Pixels share). Yes it's an improvement, but could they really not have used the IMX378? At least it's not dual though, so custom ROMS should be fine.

No 3.5mm speaks for itself.

Neither of those are deal breakers though. No AMOLED (or P-OLED) in late 2017 is however unacceptable in a device of this price.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] xpen.xda:
Yes, I've been disappointed with the specs of the Mi Mix 2

I was ready to purchase it, sure it would have been an improvement over the previous iteration, but then...

A smaller screen, a smaller battery, no more a 3.5 audio jack, how can this be seen as an improvement???

I'm even wondering why they took the effort of presenting it the day before the iphone 8 launch, there it was nothing there Apple should have been worried about. Not like last year's v1 launch, I mean.

So in the end I've saved some serious money, by purchasing me the v1 Exclusive Edition :D
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] santor:
[MENTION=4736247]satishp[/MENTION] lol here you are. Mirocks55 at miui forum :D .

Yep I'm disappointed. I just can't get over the design of mix 2 . Mix series is supposed to be unique in design.. now the magic is gone. Plus , the pricing is just too much. There is no software support for any high end mi phones. Just miui updates that are not including latest Android features. It's a disappointment for the price we pay we are truly neglected. I'll not go for mix 2 . I love my original mix and will stick to it. Maybe even I'll move on from Xiaomi.

In miui forums , they can't handle disappointments and criticism from users lol.

Ps. It was so funny that the guy on miui forum adviced you to work hard and get to his position on miui forum as a resource team person instead of criticizing lol
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
True. I started the same thread on MIUI forums and those "Mi fans" can't handle any constructive criticism. Can't have a proper discussion in the MIUI forums.

This is warhawk007 on miui Forums :) I knew arguing with the chinese guy was a waste of time when I realized that he was there just to promote the Mix 2 and Xiaomi. Its a pity that people like him are on the resource team as I doubt he has anything at all to contribute to MIUI.

For owners of the Original Mix, there is nothing new in the Mix 2. And in terms of speed our 1st gen. mix is on par with the S8 in day to day use. So considering the fact that camera wasn't a priority for people who bought the original mix, there aren't any exciting devices to upgrade to, this year.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] nufclad:
I'm moving from the S7 Edge to the mi mix 2. Still a bigger screen. The way the £ is at the moment I got a 6gb, 128gb mi mix 2 for £494.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] santor:
Good choice, I would've done the same.. s7 edge to mix 2 for the price is a amazing choice. No doubt about that. Original mix to mix 2 is the only thing that disappoints me.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] satishp:
In some markets, the S8/S8+ costs almost the same as the Mix 2 after the recent price cuts making it a better deal than the Mix 2. Ofcourse, this doesn't apply in India as the S8 is still in the 50k(rupees) bracket. But previous experience with Xiaomi leads me to believe that Xiaomi might only launch the 64GB variant of the Mix 2 in India (or max 128GB) at a decent profit margin.

I've also noticed online International retailers like Flosmall stocking only 64 and 128GB variants.

Even from the product packaging, its obvious that the Mix 2 wasn't intended to be as premium as the Original Mix was. Its a mass market device and Xiaomi may not produce many of the 256GB variants if the 64 and 128GB versions catch up in most markets.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jaime4272:
if i was to choose between this phones I would go with the mix 1 gen it has bigger screen, bigger battery and head phone jack.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] dark.wizard:
I waited for the Mix 2 launch, and the only thing that makes me happy about it is the price of old Mix :)

Already ordered first Mi Mix, now waiting for it
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] Chainz007:
Did the same today. Around 470$/410€ is acceptable for the Mi Mix :)
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] smallballl:
Totally agreed and disappointed to Mix 2 with no surprise/downgrade spec. Also from the Mix 1 I could find the unique design without 3 way bezel which is fabulous but the phone design of Mix 2 is not as special as I expect. Luckily I could buy the 256 gb Mix 1 in the past 2 week (already discontinued in China official website now) which is happy to use now.

Hope Xiaomi would know more the current situation and improve in Mix 3.

[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] reeco:
Sold my note 8 and went back to Mix 1. Mix 2 look awful in comparison.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] ispeedca:
Good points!

After owning the mix for 7 months and being offered a s8+ to renew my contract, I decided I was going to sell the s8+ directly when I got it since I would be waiting for the mi mix 2 release as the ONLY problem I was having with the mix was that the camera quality was sub par for a phone of this caliber. After seeing that they reduced the screen size and added pretty much nothing to it I was really wondering what they were thinking. Everyone loves the mix for screen size (with the new aspect ratio that I hate, screen is close to 30% smaller) and it's long life battery so why take these 2 amazing traits and just remove them? Anyway I ended trying using the s8+ but came back to the mix because it is so much better to hold and surf the web etc. I wish someone over there had any sense and bring back our big screen with an amazing camera and the hifi dac that I use almost everyday to get the best sound possible.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] jr313:
I actually have both Mix 1 and Mix 2. Yes the screen size is a big difference and about the only thing that really bugs me. But seeing as the 2-1 (18.9) screen ration is the way all companies are going with I decided to take a shot and start getting use to it. I got it on sale and paid about $430, it took a month and a week to get to me from China but at that price it is worth it. I have the 64 gb version and I like it more than I thought I would. It came bootloader unlocked straight from China so I'm rooted and have a aosp rom on it. The stock camera to me is a little better but I have installed a camera mod and I have no problem with it at all. It feels smoother to me maybe it's placebo because it is a new phone with the 835 over the 821. Overall to me personally it is an upgrade even though it may be small.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] hquant:
In fact I got the Mi Mix 1

With the original Mi Mix it was love at first sight. The Mi Mix 2 rather reminds me of the failed attempts by the Mi Mix copycats (Doogee Mix, Umidigi Crystal, Leagoo Mix, Ulephone Mix, Vkworld Mix, Ulephone Mix). Bigger bezels, heavy top bezel with ordinary speaker, smaller screen. Less experimentation, more mainstream. I did not get it at all, so I ordered the original one with 256 GB, still stunning, even in the Times of the iPhone X and Galaxy S8. I tried some of the copies, but ultimately shelled out the money for the real thing. Love it!
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] VeEuzUKY:
Just see the renders of the new Mix 2s! The more new versions of the Mix come out, the more I love the original Mix. The boldest, biggest, better yet. I doubt they will ever make a better Mix than the first one.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] 954wrecker:
I wish the new version had the 6.4" screen. I really like the lack of bezels and the in screen fingerprint sensor. Just not a fan of the 6" screen size.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] VeEuzUKY:
Yes agreed. The whole point of this phone and gorgeous dispaly is to stay in it's larger phablet form factor. The standard sub 6" smaller sizes is whatever else everyone is doing. And that mini notch on the right hand corner to put the stupid camera kills it for me. Put it in the center or just take the stupid selfie camera out altogether. The original Mix was and still is the reference design that is yet to be matched.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] claudioita:
what do you mean?
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] 954wrecker:
In think he means the s8+ feels tiny compared to the mi mix. I had one for a few days and got rid of it. Felt like half the size especially when you factor in the useless curved edges and the super tall narrow screen.
[Xiaomi Mi MIX  Guides, News, & Discussion] claudioita:
Understand, yes agreed 100%, I do not want the 18:9 format. Ugly
[Galaxy Tab 10.1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] filifranci:
HI,

I have an old Galaxy TAB P7500 and wanted to upgrade the Android version. I followed a guide and tried to install a custom ROM, but it failed. Now the tablet is stuck on the CWM screen and when I reboot it it goes back to the CWM screen. I can't connect to the computer via Odin or Kies since the computer does not recognize the tablet (drivers are installed) and I can't try any other ROM since the tablet does not have any external sd card, so it can read the data only from the internal memory, which I cannot reach.

I'm desperate. Any suggestion?

Thanks

My Moto 360 2nd Gen started behaving strange some weeks ago.

After one afternoon powered down, it couldn't be charged or have it's screen powered on when I was placing it on the charger.

Now I took it for a check at the service center and when they checked it with their charger, then the screen came back to life.

So I guess, I will need a new charger or cable. But how can I identify what is the problematic part? And from where can I buy some new original parts?
[Moto 360 2015] esoh:
I would experiment with power supplies and cables and see if it works. The LED at the bottom can help you figure it out, i.e., it will light up or not. If it's the actual charger, then you probably need to hit Amazon. I bought this on Amazon for $9 as a travel charger.
