Merwyn Fernandes, 30 Sep 2017As processors are getting more and more power efficient the... moreThere is only so much an efficient processor can do, and they mostly contribute to better standby times rather than SOT times. I can give you 2 examples which shows that battery capacity is of prime importance (with/without an efficient processor leads to better usage times)
Case 1: Let's take the top 2 performers. The Lenovo P2 with 149 hour rating and the Gionee M5 with 148 hours endurance. The P2 has a super-efficient SD 625 and 5100 mAh. The Gionee Marathon M5 has 6020 mAh and a lesser efficient Meditek. Yet see the individual scores for call, web and video. The Marathon is ahead by hours. And guess what? Despite packing 6020 mAh, the Marathon M5 is only 8.6 mm thick.

Case 2: Xiaomi's own Mi Max 2 reaped the results of combining a larger 5300 mAh battery and an efficient SD 625, over the original Mi Mix with a SD 650 and 4850 mAh. Not only is the Mi Max 2's overall score better, it's individual times for call and video are also hours ahead of it's predecessor.

Xiaomi gave the excuse that they left out the 3.5 mm headphone jack to accommodate a larger battery (of only 3350mAh). Here's the proof:

Merwyn Fernandes, 30 Sep 2017As processors are getting more and more power efficient the... moreI agree. Power efficient chipsets dont need larger battery. Instead, manufacturer can shrink their battery capacity and saving a lot of resources but still have the same endurance rating as its predecessor. It make less sense if consumer expect to see battery size getting bigger and bigger each year. By now, smartphone should have 10,000mah battery going by that logic if the first smartphone had 1000mah battery 10 years ago. That just an example. Dont go all nerdy and telling me the first smartphone is not 10 years ago with 1000mah battery. Read EXAMPLE.

Why would anyone buying this phone need a dual camera setup? because iPhone has it? Nobody gave a hoot when HTC did in 2014.

Luxor, 30 Sep 2017To achieve a slimmer 7.5mm body. It has been said in the article.I was more of a rhetorical question, actually.
But seriously, Xiaomi is getting worse at making phones and better at making lame excuses.
First they said they removed the 3.5 mm headphone jack in the Mi 6 to "accommodate" the battery, which at 3350 mAh, is large by any standards (even Xiaomi's, considering how many 4100 mAh phones they used to release before this year). And the Mi 6 doesn't even have an external SD card slot!
And now you have the Mi Mix 2 with chops off the 3.5 mm headphone jack and drops the battery capacity by a whopping 1000 mAh! I don't think there is any phone in the history of mankind, with a successor so inferior to the predecessor.
