I have this problem with face/portrait photos. Looks like there is some heavy image processing when a face is detected. Gcam photos have lots more detail of the face....

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] ushoda:
did anyone noticed that when shooting in "auto mode", if you press the 2X, the phone doesn't use the telephoto? it's just a 2x zoom from the wide camera.

You can test that covering the telephoto lens with one finger and pressing the 2X.... it shows your finger for a fraction of a second and then it shows the zoomed wide camera.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] patp:
This and some other Xiaomi phones have a skin blur effect that can't be disabled in the camera software. It's a shame because it's the only one that handles the telephoto lens nicely.

I had to give up on GCam because it would only take pictures in portrait mode, not in camera mode.

I have a Palm Centro. I have a problem where the bluetooth headset constantly disconnects (randomly) and I have to reconnect all the time. I wonder if anyone has this problem. I'm thinking that it's because the Bluetooth Software only supports 1.2. Is it possible to upgrade it to a 2.0 instead? :confused:

I have done some testing.

With QC 2.0 (my old Motorola Turbo charge 15) I charge phone from 20% to 90% with rate 65%/hour (1 hour and 10 minutes time)

With QC 3.0 (charger and cable from original Chinese packaging) I charge phone form 30% to 87% with rate 95%/hour (40 minutes)

I think this scenario is common for most users when they need to charge phone in hurry.

Later I will add also charging rate for quick wireless charger included in box and maybe also some QC 4.0+ if I get my hands on some.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] romain1672:
In my case, I bought a PD3.0 charger from Aukey and my Mi Mix 3 is charging from 0% to 100% in 1h08 !

In fact after a few research I found that Power Delivery Technology is compatible with Qualcomm Quick Charge because Quick charge is working with Power Delivery and add a few security technology, but power delivery already have some.

Nevermind, I tested it and indeed My PD3.0 charger (max 15V and 3A) with a anker cable wich support up to 5A is working faster than the QC3 charger !

I suppose a QC4.0 should be better, but for now I think PD3.0 is the best solution ! :)

I second [MENTION=9638234]romain1672[/MENTION]...I've converted all my chargers to USB-PD since I've divested from non-USB-C devices and my Mi Mix 3 flies with them. :)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] ToneLa:
I believe the wireless charging is relatively slow, think one review said three hours for full charge? But that's expected to be honest.

I've heard it said that slow charging is better for battery life, so in effect, wouldn't the wireless charger be better than cabled, if you're not pressed for time?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] Wahoux:
It took me exactly 1h45 to charge from 17% to 100% with the wireless charger. It's pretty fast for a wireless charger, but the only issue is that it heats lot of more than wired, and i read somewhere that heat isn't good for battery health.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] JMac22:
Hi guys, I just bought the Razer Phone charger (it's the only one I could get quickly with Quick Charge 4.0+ in the UK). Not the most scientific of tests, but it went from 30% to 87% in 30 mins. I tested from 30% again today with a Quick Charge 3 charger and in 30 minutes it made it to 80%.

Sorry I didn't run from 0-100%, I can probably test that more easily this weekend if people are interested?
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] invisiblewave:
Fast enough that for the first time since owning a smart phone I never have to think about looking for a charge, even when travelling.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] x1vietnguyen:
Does anyone know of any wireless chargers/charging stands that charge the mix 3 as fast as the included one? I've tried a couple I had with previous phones and they just charge so much slower
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] croques:
This charger is becoming annoying.

I place my phone on the puck by my bed. Sometimes, before falling asleep, I hear the sound indicating charge stopping.

Then, in the morning I find my phone has moved off the puck. And it is not me! The phone slips away if not perfectly aligned centrally on the puck. It is not surprising as the induction forces between the puck and phone will be opposing but the manufacturer should have spotted this and made the puck/phone with more friction between them.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] benj.perez:
Bro, I use my brothers Samsung Wireless Charger "EP-NG930" from his S8. Google it to see it. I can't post a pic of it since I leave it in the office but underneath it is rated at 9V 1.67A (15W)

I must say it charges pretty much the same, if not, faster than the included one since it has a built-in noiseless fan behind the coils :)

Hi, May I ask you how do you manage to get 6-8 SOT because I have the phone since a week with global ROM installed and I get around 4 hours ( the same I had also before with Chinese ROM)
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] Mackay53:
4 hours is reasonable, person with 6-8 hours SOT will highly likely have different usage to you.....

Turn brightness down, install another kernel, don't use high demanding apps as much, close and turn things off when not using, use power saving apps etc

I also had battery issues. Sas barely.using phone and in half a day telephone asked for.charging. whaat i did was disxharge to shut down then charge to 100% without turning on the phone. It helped a lot. Ove read aomewhere that this method is food once a year for phone battery because it helps to calbrate the energy levels in the battery.

Also it.is good. to use as dark pixels.as u can becausw.the.brighter the more.energy ia going to be used.

Also disable.services you dont need(wifi,gps,mobile data,nfc, bluetooth background processes, anything thhat is using your battery energynto.work.

With advices in this.thread you can prolong your battery by like 40%. Can confirm that it.helped me.

Just do.some reasearch on enerfy saving in a smartphone.

I have use this device in the same form that I have use my last device (oneplus 3T), on a heavy usage, the battery last about 7 hours, 27.4% of battery power is drained by the screen, 23.3% by PUBG mobile, 11.4% goes to Android system, 6.4% got eaten by Pokemon Go App and the rest 31.5 distributes on messaging apps, facebook, intagram, camera, and standby. I would have expected at least 9-10 hours under this usage, but that was not the case. On a standby and more light usage, I easily got to two days of battery life.

[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] pm-2019:
10.0.11.0 - Global

I can't believe how bad the MIUI 10 global firmware is...

I had heard the MIUI might not be to everyone's tastes, so I was prepared for a little bit of disruption...

However it's much worse I expected.

Firstly, a few positive points:

The hardware is top notch. It's a bit heavy and thick, but it's a very comfortable device to hold. I LOVE the hardware.

Visually it's actually quite appealing. The settings screen has a nice "slinky" effect when scrolling hits the top and bottom. There's also some nice animated when apps open and close from the launcher.

That's about all the good things I can say about it.

The worst things:

Notifications are just plain broken. By default, all installed apps only show notification badges. They don't show icons in the status bar and they don't show on the lock screen.

I can't imagine what MIUI designer thought this was a good design choice. Notifications is the one thing that Android does WAY better than iOS, so why MI would nerf notifications to be almost useless is unfathomable.

So after figuring out why notifications weren't working, I went through every app and for every category of each app enabled notifications in the status bar AND lock screen.

Really annoying, but I thought "hey, you only have to do this once, right? Stop complaining..."

But even then the notifications on the don't work right. They show once... when you unlock the phone they all disappear off the lockscreen forever. Consider this example, I set a reminder to for 12pm. It shows on the lockscreen at 12:01, but I'm not ready to deal with it yet. At 12:02 I unlock the phone to make a phone call. Boom notification disappears. Next time I look at my lockscreen, nothing to do. Complete and utter bollocks!

There's lots of bloat apps on the device. Why would I want to use the MI Messenger when I can use the awesome Google Messages?

So I install Google Messages... and guess what... notifications don't work. I changed all the stupid defaults to enable everything, still no notifications.

That's probably due to the very aggressive power management on the phone. Obviously MI disable this for their own apps (so they run correctly), but for every other app the defaults are set very aggressively. Why MI felt they had to rewrite the, already very competent, power management built into Android 9 I don't know... but they did and it' bad. Great you made my battery last a few hours longer, but you also made my phone completely useless...

Back to the bloat, you can't remove OR hide any of the built in schlock, also very annoying.

The iOS like launcher with no app drawer and ALL icons on the home screen, also very annoying.

I could go on and on... The Mi Mix 3 is a beautiful piece of hardware that it completely and utterly let down by abysmal software.

I'm going to try putting the "Unofficial Pixel Experience" ROM on it. If that doesn't perform well I will be selling this baby at a loss, because MIUI 10 is completely unusable.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] Mackay53:
Xiaomi phone has Xiaomi apps, you sound surprised.... Should of just got a pixel phone
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] invisiblewave:
I don't recognize any of these criticisms of MIUI 10. This is my first MIUI phone, I've previously run mostly ROMs based on Lineage, which is pretty close to stock Android. Notifications work fine for me, with the exception of Google Messages which is borked, Textra is a perfectly good substitute and works. The native messaging app does have problems, but with group texts not notifications. I've had no difficulties because of apps being killed in the background, quite the contrary compared to my previous phone with its pitiful RAM, multitasking on the Mix3 is, as I expected, significantly improved, and returning to apps much later almost always results in state preservation rather than a restart. Stock launcher?? Who the hell ever runs a stock launcher anyway? There are a million-and-one alternatives, including the Pixel launcher if you prefer, this being one of the biggest (and multitudinous) advantages of Android over crApple.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] i killed tupac:
I love the phone but can agree that MIUI10 notifications are ****. Totally broken. Over aggressive battery management. I heard they are working on that.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] mmm_ok:
I also think MIUI is... err... not my favourite flavour of Android (to be polite).

Thank goodness for Pixel Experience.

To be fair, I think their ROM is highly geared towards China. That's why they need all the custom non-Google apps.

However that's no excuse for the notifications issue. That's just bad. However I don't think this is a Mi Mix 3 issue... Its a MIUI issue and if you Google "MIUI notifications" you will see people complaining about it in MIUI 8.

Here's Android Police (a really reputable site in my opinion) complaining about it for the POCO F1

https://www.androidpolice.com/2018/...g-miui-poco-f1/#The_notification_icon_tragedy

Basically notifications are bad on MIUI and they have been for a while. And Xiaomi don't seem able or willing to fix it...
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] Mackay53:
Of course it's highly geared towards China, it's a Chinese manufacturer who's main customer base is China lol

Only bad in Chinese ROM but that's for the Chinese market.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] i killed tupac:
in Developer Settings, scroll to bottom and disable "MIUI Optimization" and it will work
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] Alexkidd85:
Mmm have you a proofs? I mean, i already did it and no positive results.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] PWn3R:
So just some perspective here, I have a Pixel XL of all 3 generations, and multiple other devices that run stock or close to stock Android. I bought this device BECAUSE I wanted to check out MIUI in more detail. I invested several hundred hours trying to get MIUI to boot on my Pixel XL. I was never able to get it to boot all the way into setup. There are a lot of cool things MIUI does, and there are some annoyances. However, I think we can both agree that the build quality and price of the Xiaomi devices are second to none at the moment. I haven't seen build quality like this since my Droid X and Droid Rzr.

The nice thing is that we should get full TWRP support and once we have a working device tree (I won't lie, I've been working on that and a TWRP build) we can get some open source goodness with a full ROM. If you hate MIUI that much why would you purchase the device? Also as far as manufacturers go, Xiaomi is far from worst about updates and ongoing device support from what I'm seeing. Especially with these "halo" devices.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] pm-2019:
There seems to be an undercurrent of "Why did you buy it if you hate it so much?" and "If you don't want MIUI apps, you should have just bought a Pixel", so let's just clear a few things up...

This is NOT me:

I really hate MIUI... but I'm going to buy a Xiaomi phone anyway and complain about it.

This is me:

Huh, that Mi Mix 3 looks really cool... Never owned a Xiaomi phone before... I wonder if I should take a chance...

Oh crap I'm not getting ANY notifications. Wow, this MIUI is really broken.

As I said in my first post, I love the hardware. Unfortunately, in my opinion, MIUI, on the global version of this device at least, is busted. I just can't believe that they would have released something so half baked.

Fortunately, I've installed a custom ROM and waved goodbye to that MIUI nightmare.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] PWn3R:
Well, that makes more sense. I haven't had notification problems on the global room, but it's flashed on the Chinese device in my case and it was dirty flashed over the EU rom without wiping data. I'm sure given what I saw with the Mix 2s there I had very briefly that they will sort out the issues on the global rom.
[Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 Real Life Review] invisiblewave:
Almost all of the issues I've had with notifications were down to the combination of Pie/MIUI, and the multitude of confusing notification settings. Once I'd got all the permissions sorted out, notifications worked perfectly with the exception of Google Messages, and the solution to that was to switch to another message provider then switch back again, I don't know why that works but it does (I have to do it each time I update, apparently). The developer option thing doesn't work, all that does is reset all the notification permissions, leading to the tedious task of setting them back again. MIUI does have a learning curve, but it's certainly not a nightmare.
