Xiaomi smartphones that cannot be bought in 2020

According to other characteristics, at the start of sales, he stood in one place with competitors, such as the Samsung Galaxy A50 and Redmi Note 8 Pro. With a Snapdragon 665 processor, the device pulls PUBG Mobile at high settings, and with a 4000 mAh battery, the charge lasts for one and a half days of moderate use (social networks, instant messengers, music at high speed Internet). By winter, the smartphone has fallen in price below 15 thousand rubles, but even here it is not the best – in this segment in terms of price and quality ratio the undisputed leader is realme 5 Pro.

Alternative: Redmi Note 8 Pro

The screen here is normal. IPS technology, diagonal – 6.3 inches, resolution – Full HD +. But the camera is a big plus against the background of the Mi A3. Four modules – 48 + 8 + 2 + 2 Mpix. The main one behaves with dignity both with a large amount of light, and with its lack. The main module shoots at 48 or 12 megapixels. In the first, it is better to take pictures with a large amount of light in order to capture more details, in the second – in low light, so that the pixels let in more light.

–

But the performance is minus the smartphone. With the same Snapdragon 655, demanding games run only at the minimum graphics settings, and the interface is slow. But there is NFC and the ability to pay for purchases contactlessly.

Mi MIX 3

A model for those who are tired of everyday life and want a smartphone with a new form factor or just avoid cutouts for the front camera. This is a slider, and the kit includes wireless charging.

–

The design follows the trends of the second half of 2018. AMOLED screen, glass case, fingerprint scanner located on the rear panel.

–

The cons begin further. First of all, the smartphone lagged behind competitors in terms of camera performance. It is double, there is a double optical zoom, resolution – 12 + 12 megapixels. Last – minus devices, modern models offer the main module at 48 megapixels and higher. With them, when increasing the frame, the quality loss is less noticeable. Optical stabilization is provided, but it works poorly – the frame still shakes.

–

The smartphone runs on last year’s Snapdragon 845 chip, but you don’t feel any problems – the power is definitely enough for three years of work without any restrictions. But autonomy is the weak side of a smartphone. The battery capacity is only 3000 mAh. With moderate use, he barely survives until night, with active energy lasts a maximum until the end of the working day.

–

Alternative: Mi 9T Pro

The camera is a plus against the background of Mi MIX 3, the main one is triple: 48 + 12 + 8 megapixels. This is the main sensor, telephoto and ultra wide angle. There is no optical stabilization, but the camera eliminates this disadvantage with a high resolution of the main sensor.

–

The second advantage of the Mi 9T Pro compared to the Mi Mix 3 is the battery. Its capacity is 4000 mAh, with it the charge lasts for a day and a half for moderate use. Otherwise, the device is just as good as a competitor. AMOLED screen, 6.4 inches, Full HD +. Processor – Snapdragon 855.

Mi 9 SE

The prefix speaks for itself. The Mi 9 SE is a compact smartphone like the iPhone SE. The screen diagonal is 5.97 inches. The device is easy to control with one hand, it is not heavy and does not rest in the hip bone in your pocket. AMOLED screen with Full HD + resolution.

–

Dimensions aren’t the only things that make the Mi 9 SE good. The second feature of the device is a camera with a telephoto module. With it, he takes off with a double increase without loss of quality. The chip is Snapdragon 712, there are no restrictions with it, demanding games are automatically launched at high graphics settings.

–

But all the advantages come to naught due to one drawback. The main disadvantage of the device is a 3070 mAh battery. This is not enough even for a 5.97-inch screen. With such a battery, the device will survive until the end of the day. And if you do not spare the charge and actively hang in social networks, then the connection to the wire will be needed already in the early evening.

–

In addition, the smartphone turned out to be problematic: an inconvenient and slippery case, poor display performance at a low brightness level, an unsuccessful camera and complaints about a fingerprint scanner.

–

Alternative: Xiaomi Mi 9 Lite

Six months after the release of Mi 9 SE, Mi 9 Lite was presented in Russia with a more favorable price-performance ratio, but at a lower price.

–

The battery capacity of this model is 4000 mAh, the charge is definitely enough for a day, if you do not hang all day in PUBG or Call of Duty: Mobile. Processor – Snapdragon 710, this is work without restrictions and a fast interface. AMOLED screen, Full HD + resolution, 600 nits brightness.

–

The camera is ordinary in characteristics. There are three modules: the main, ultra-wide-angle and the sensor for analyzing the depth of field. Its software features are much more interesting – in AI Skyscaping mode, the system recognizes the sky and changes it. For example, you can turn a cloudy passage on a sunny day.
