The new Mi VR headset which was announced 2 days ago only supports the Mi Note 2 and the Mi 5, not the Mi Max!
I was really disappointed by this. I have been struggling to find a VR headset for the 6.44" Mi Max. Most either don't fit the phone at all or crop the visible area to around 5" making the extra large screen useless. Why on earth would Xiaomi launch a new headset for current models and not include this one? Even their previous really basic VR Play headset supported it!

Hi Guys, are You speaking about "Mi Mix 2 is the new Mi Mix"?
WRONG!
Mi Mix 2 is just a new version of Xiaomi Borderless smartphone.
At the end of march/first days of april, Xiaomi will have an event to show a new device:
XIAOMI MI MIX 2+ (Mi Mix 2 Plus)
same design of the Mi Mix2 but with 6,4" Oled display.
Other technical features:
94,3% display area
Qualcomm 945 (not confirmed)
8Gb ram
256Gb memory
MicroSD + Wireless Charge (we all hope....)
Miui 9 with Android Oreo
same NOT good camera like Mi Mix/Mi Mix 2 (but with 4k 60fps Video) :crying:
*Source internal worker, confirmed from gearbest friends
What do you think about Mi Mix 2 Plus?
1) Source?
2) March/April is 7 months away (long time) and its near the launch of the Mi 7 so I think its not worth the wait.

2) i Know, 7 months are so much... but is completely different device 6" and 6,4" so if your necessity is just a normal display device is good Mi Mix 2, if like me you need bigger display, will be better to wait
So long time to be disappointed(again). Lovely job Xiaomi.
if what you say is true, than I hope so, because the one they release is a disappointment, it's hardly an updated version .

Xiaomi another smartphone Mi 6X with 18:9 ratio display is about to launch in the global smartphone market. As per the online leaks, After, Xiaomi Mi 5X, Xiaomi is working on its next model Mi 6X to be a successor. Expected Price in China CNY-2,208, in India Rs. 31,999 and in the US 499$ check out the video below and comment your opinion.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JGESSbHwwJ8
Xiaomi Mi 6X Full Specifications:
Mi 6X Display: 5.5" IPS LCD Touchscreen with 1080X2160 Pixels.
Screen: 18:9 screen size with corning gorilla glass 6.
Camera: 16MP+16MP Rear Dual Camera with f/1.7 OIS & dual Led dual tone Flash. Front Camera: 12MP
OS: Android Oreo 8.1.
Processor: Qualcomm Snapdragon 835.
RAM: 6/8 GB
Storage: 64/128 GB
This price is joke. I wouldn't buy even for 399
Hi end phone with low end software
For that price I would definitely buy OP5T
What do you mean with low-end software though? Afaik xiaomi is one of the few vendor who updates regularly even their 5 y/o devices & always update android's latest security patch & their flagships line-up get comparably faster in update of latest android version. From customer's standpoint, that is pretty high-end maintenance there.

Exactly even I also think same for the price it offers. OP5T is a fantastic device in its price range even beats all competitive devices like LG V30 Plus, Honor View 10 & Samsung devices :fingers-crossed:
I have both the OnePlus 5T and the Mi6 Blue ceramic.
They are VERY different phones.
The OnePlus is excellent - very fast, very smooth and the OS has the biggest development community on XDA.
The Mi 6 is excellent also. If you know what you're doing, it photographs better, the oleophilic coating on the screen is much nicer, the feel in the hand is better than any other phone out there. And it's fast.
It's like BMW vs. Mercedes. Very different. Very capable.
The biggest difference is that the OP it's OLED and the Mi6 is LCD.
So.
I'm looking forward to seeing the Mi 7.

Mi 6 is good but the price is the main factor that we all should look before buying the device. In my opinion, OP 5T is a fantastic device that offers worth for bucks what we spend on it. :fingers-crossed:

What about asking these questions in your device's section next time as here's not for your device but Mi 6? But I'm sure all of them are asked there dozens of times and answered as well.

Looks like you'll be at mi a2 forums as the two devices are actually identical apart the software that they're shipped with.

Not really. Xiaomi thought about this so they f'd up some things. Mi 6X has only Treble A partition while A2 has AB.

Hello everyone, I'm intending buying a new phone in the Middle range prices and after some researches i sticked to this 2 choices: Mi A1 and Redmi 5 Plus, i'm not fascinated by the 18:9 aspect ratio, i'm just looking for handy Value for money phone especially in terms of future supporting by developers.
what do you think?
After my Redmi 4 Prime i can say you one thing..
NEVER BUY A REDMI PHONE.
Redmi Note and Mi series are ok.
Sent from my Mi A1 using XDA Labs
Got a Mi A1, in love with !
Mi A1 Best choice for me
I'm satisfied with my A1, no issues.
Running latest stock Oreo, Jan 1 update.

Buy Redmi Note 5 pro
Few weeks back, my biggest headache was to choose between the A1 or Redmi Note 4. Both phone are great, and of course the rn4 has big battery. And undoubtedly, the rn4 developer support is really really great. Unlike Mi A1 right now, well, there is development going but..hmm..
The rn5 looks nice with that 18:9 screen.. not sure bout how will the dev support be for that device tho. Anyhow, loving my A1 :victory:
Easily redmi 5 or 5 plus. Mi A1 is good but the redmi will probably be so much supported on xda and that 18:9 display is gorgeous. And the battery!
It really depends on the taste of android u want. Mi a1 offers pure stock vanilla Android just like in Google pixels and redmi note 5 offers miui a heavily skinned custom Ron with loads of features.
Also mi a1 has dual camera for portrait mode shots and redmi note 5 doesn't ( I suppose). If u are a big fan of the latest updates offered by Google then mi a1 is the way to go.

Since Mi A1 didn't get any stable custom roms yet even though Xiaomi releases the Kernel Source, i'm afraid the developers left this device!
Hopefully redmi 5 and 5 plus get Xda developers Support, but till now no independent
thread for both of them

developer support for the phone is a MUST!
I was going to buy Meizu M6 note... same Mi A1 price and defiantly beats it specially with both Cameras, but since it doesn't have any Supporting i left it!

If developer support is a must for you, then I guess you should wait for xiaomi to release rn5 pro kernel sources and then get that phone. The A/B partition in the A1 might be one of the reasons why the A1 have not been getting much love..

Go for Redmi Note 5 Pro period.!
I have the Meizu m6 note and it's a great.
Great battery, good camera, no lag, but also no development either.
I have the Redmi 5 plus on order and had hoped it would be here by now. Ordered it January 29.
Hopefully it is supported.

IMO, since the 18:9 screen doesnt fancy you, then it comes to camera vs battery. A1 for camera and R5+ for battery.

According to camera comparisons, Redmi Note 5 has a vastly better camera even though it's single vs dual.
Not much seems to be going for A1 unforunately, except Oreo.
actually i was about to buy mi a2 but after i heard about that xioami app camera is trash and with google app you get very impressive results
so now
is the improvement that googel app makes to mi a1 camera makes it worth buying over mi a2 ? espically mi a2 has no headphone jack and no sd card slot which makes me thinking over and over ... is there a huge difference btw mi a2 in camera that makes it worth buying or mi a1 with google app camera makes it slight difference ??
You can go for Redmi note 5 AI instead and use google camera with it, if Android One isn't mandatory.
Google camera is the best choice, Xiaomi stock camera app is trash, I mean, it's OK in good lightning condition, but in darker situations it is trash.
Go for Redmi Note 5, it is better choice than Mi A1 and it's newer. A2 is great too, don't know if someone made working Gcam for Mi A2, if yes then buy Mi A2, but it doesn't have 3.5mm jack if thats important to you
Or if Android One is the trick, check the Nokia lineup... definitely after the time Xiaomi took to release updates, plus the lack of support for GCam, my next phone will be a Nokia (I do want Android one, and they have a better track record for updates).

I thought about a nokia too but actually there's only one device that can be unlocked without a signature (key) binary and that's the nokia x6 (6.1 plus/sd630). Not sure about unofficial ways but nokia closed the doors via august OTA. Also it has a notch.
