I just want to send out some love for this model. I have got mine in January 2019. I still use it as my daily. Anytime I open the selfie camera people ask me what phone this is. 5 years in and it's still a show stopper.
Sure, the camera quality and the snappyness really show their age but I still didn't find something on the market for which I would dump this as long it's working. I just love the full screen without the camera punch hole and you can slide it open to answer the phone which I still find very satisfying.
Cheers

    These phones are a couple of years old now so be aware if you buy them, spare batteries seem completely unobtainable in the EU. Given the original battery turned into a spicy pillow in just two years, that's a completely unacceptable lack of support.

        $120?! Do it; just flash it with a new rom when you get it though.
        I'm really happy to see this phone was loved by other as much as myself.

          I have an option to buy this phone now for 120bucks,do yall think its worth it? Beacuse im not sure, Im worried that magnets are going to break

            Andy, 12 Sep 2022I just can't express enough how good this phone is. I&... moreAgreed. I hate all these notches and holes. Pop up cameras and sliders are 100% the way to go. UD cameras are a close second.

            I wish the designers responsible for getting rid of all the pop ups and sliders were all fired. Now you can't buy a good phone.

              I just can't express enough how good this phone is. I've had it since it's release in november 2018 and i still cannot find anything to replace it since. Here's why (in no particular order)

              1. The slider works like a miracle. The fastest mirror you can have in your pocket. Just slide it down and you have instant access to the selfie camera that doubles as a mirror if you need to check your face real quick. Its been 4 years, i rarely use the front camera but the magnets still have the same satisfying movement. Slider means no punch holes or notches, too!

              2. Finger print sensor on the ceramic back has zero latency and the phone is immediately turned on the home screen as you pick it up. No two button pressing or face reading necessary. Just natural slide of a finger to the ceramic back and you're in your last app/home screen. I use my phone without a case and that ceramic back finger print sensor i just perfectly placed.

              3. Cameras still holds up (2022). I cannot tell a clear difference with new flasghips. The telephoto couldve been better, but this phone was so affordable compared to other flagships during its release.

              4. Software and snapdragon 845 is still a beast!
              5. Quick charge is so good.
              6. Phones dac foe music is just so good.


              Its a shame they shied away from this slider design. Im also not in favor of moving finger print sensors that double as a power button. I wish they could bring those back to newer models. I want a new slider model. Sigh.

                Fully retired. 2019→2022. No doubt, best 2018 flagship phone. Excellent camera 10/10. Futuristic design. Overall performance was great. Battery is bad for heavy use but everything is perfect. Best feature is it's portrait camera... People always ask me if I have a DSLR camera but no... Its just mi mix 3 doing its job. Cant afford Mi Mix 4 so I might stick to lower ends until price drops.

                  I have been a proud owner of this phone Since the release of the international version. This phone has served me well and lasted through all the heavy use i put it through. I have done a lot of street photography with it and I kept getting asked about the phone to this day whenever I photographed portraits or scenery. The sliding mechanism was always a nice conversation starter. a 10/10 phone that will now retire and enter my shelf of fame of great pieces of engineering as it's screen died a few days ago.

                  I got to admit that I find it really hard to decide on which phone will replace it as my daily driver and I guess that most of you guys are having the same issue in this time and period.

                      One of the best phone I have ever had. Very robust, only minor scratches and 3 years without any issue.
                      As mentionned, the battery is quite small and I decided to replace it myself few month back. Not complicated at all. Except from the battery, the weight can be an issue for some people (even though most of the modern phones tend to be bigger).
                      Thanks Xiaomi for this phone, 100% happy of my purchase. I don't know which phone will be my next one.

                              I have the 5G version with Snapdragon 855. One of the best phones I have ever had. For selfies, this phone is great. The rear camera takes great photos in daylight too. Battery life is below average as everyone mentioned.

                                  My Mix 3 is exactly 3 yrs old today! Still a beast, barely any scratches. I rooted this when it was just 1mo old (currently unrooted but still running custom ROM). I'll turn this to a media player/caster when I'm ready to let it go. One of my smartest decisions buying this in 2018, even if I was broke af then. :D

                                    Im proud owner of this phone for 2 years. Im thinking about some upgrade, but I can not find any! Only Mix4 probably, but Mix4 is big and heavy.

                                    Full screen display is these days more valuable than salt or gold. Sliding mechanism is even more unique. Double selfie camera with flashlight even even more!

                                    Guys, Mi Mix 3 is awesome!

                                      Don't buy cheapest, I've payed about 20$.
                                      Camera is amazing with right gcam mod. Even same sensor /similar lens like Mi 8, I get better results with mix 3.
