There are a few different modes to choose from including a hi-res 48MP mode, Night Mode, and even Pro Mode. So you’ll be able to turn that “serviceable” picture into something that looks really great. Xiaomi also includes AI enhancement, as it can determine the scene and adjust the settings on the fly. Obviously this isn’t earth-shattering or anything, but it’s a big vibrant display that is super-responsive and just looks fantastic.

• Flashing will fix software issues, IMEI related issues, and improve device performance.
• There is an insane 720Hz touch sampling rate, too, which Xiaomi claims is the industry’s best on a mobile.
• Regardless, in real-world use, it translates to a phone that doesn’t get a single hint of slowdown no matter what games you throw at it.
• If you’re going to put out a gaming phone, then you have to make sure it scores high in terms of performance.

You won’t find any jarring tattoos or bright contrasting colors, this one’s a white-collar worker.

That doesn’t mean that added accessories are not available, as you can grab an addition cooler priced at around $30. It just goes to show that when it comes to comparing the Snapdragon 870 versus the newer Snapdragon 888, the differences are negligible.

Regardless, in real-world use, it translates to a phone that doesn’t get a single hint of slowdown no matter what games you throw at it. Same goes for your everyday tasks, including multitasking and swiping between apps. Yes, there are newer components offering faster speeds, but you’re getting a good price-to-performance ratio here and while it can get hot under intense use, no temperature spikes hamper the speed of this phone at all.
