What's our thoughts on the Xiaomi Mi MIX 2?

Review Overview:
The Mi MIX 2 is a visually impressive smartphone from Xiaomi, combining a sleek, full-screen design with a robust set of features. Its performance, camera capabilities, and battery life make it a strong competitor in the mid-range smartphone market. However, it may not fully satisfy those who seek the highest-tier camera performance or the most extensive battery life.

Overall Score: 3.0/5

Price 3.0/5

Price: 4.5/5
The Mi MIX 2 is priced fairly for the features it offers. It offers excellent value, especially when compared to other smartphones in its range. With a high-end design and solid performance, it's hard to find a better deal at this price point.

Cameras 3.0/5

Camera: 3.5/5
The camera setup in the Mi MIX 2 is decent but not extraordinary. It is equipped with a single 12 MP rear camera that takes reasonably sharp and vibrant photos in good lighting conditions. However, it falls short in low light scenarios and lacks the advanced features of higher-end smartphones. The selfie camera is a 5 MP unit that delivers satisfactory performance for casual use but nothing breathtaking.

Power 3.0/5

Power: 4/5
Powered by a Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 processor and 6 GB of RAM, the Mi MIX 2 provides a smooth and responsive user experience. It handles multitasking and gaming with ease and shows no signs of slowing down during demanding tasks.

Battery Life 3.0/5

Battery: 3.5/5
The Mi MIX 2 comes with a 3400 mAh battery, which is pretty standard for smartphones of its category. It can last a full day with moderate use but may require charging by evening with heavier use. The inclusion of Quick Charge 3.0 technology is a plus, allowing for rapid charging times.
