OLED screen to bracelet information can be visually displayed, especially the time display is very convenient.
Lift the wrist bright screen, with a slight delay, to get used to the rhythm.

        I'm really happy with my Mi Mix 2,it's really a stunning phone.And my girlfriend has a Mi Mix 1,so I can compare really good.Already two weeks of use.Sound producing and especially the camera's on the Mi MIx 2 are way better.Battery life is at least 6h screen on time with heavy use spread over 2 days,with heavy use you can reach 8h SOT in 1 day for sure!!!I am coming from an Iphone 7,and I am really happy,didn't expected it that good!!!

Anyway, good for you that you don't need a SD card slot. Good for you to be willing to spend more for uploading and downloading data from cloud all the time. For me, i won't ever buy a phone without a micro SD card slot unless all mobile phone company decided to get rid of it altogether.

And I backup my important data every night before I go to bed. So in the event something does happen that renders my phone unusable, my loss will be minimal.
                    I haven't swayed from this backup habit in the last 4 years.

                        CM3, 11 Oct 2017Like you said. Depends on how you see it. I use filezilla t... moreYea, storing data in cloud is good but wait till one day your touch screen malfunction that you cannot unlock your phone at all and that you have not upload/backup your important files to the cloud. Then you will know how good if you have stored data in the SD card too.
                        That's what happen to my previous phone with 64GB storage on board and without a micro SD card slot. I thought 64GB with Google Drive of 100GB subscription is more than what i need. Until my touch screen suddenly spoilt!! Cannot register any touch at all. Can't even unlock and i didn't backup my photos for months.
                        So i was left with the option to either spend money to replace my screen or lost my data completely.
                        I hope this won't happen to you.

                              AnonD-691126, 11 Oct 2017Wow- I think 18:9 is a mistake. Soon we'll have phones long... moreSo very true, more and more manufacturers are doing this sick 18:9 ratio now, they simply don't care about usability anymore.

                              "There are a lot of improvements..."

                              Oh please, stop the bs. There's only a single improvement, and that's the camera quality, the only thing that was really bad about the Mix 1. (Okay, the CPU is a bit better, but as the old one was already good enough, this was unnecessary.)

                              Other than that, it's a great deal worse than the original Mix 1 in numerous regards:

                              - the battery is a whopping 1000 mAh smaller! Are they playing catch-up with Apple's tiny batteries or something?

                              - smaller screen, and using that horrible 18:9 ratio with poor usability, to make matters worse. Due to that blasted 18:9, it isn't actually 5.99", but rather only 5.5" with a little useless space on top.

                              - the bezelless design of the Mix 1 was revolutionary. The Mix 2 looks rather ordinary, with bigger bezels and a worse screen to body ratio.

                              - while the camera got better, it comes with an ugly camera bump. Yet more failed design. Just make the darn thing a bit thicker, and you don't have an ugly bump and can fit a bigger battery.

                              - headphone jack was removed. Sick trend.

                              - instead of adding the missing SD card slot, they add a version with even smaller, non-expandable memory.

                              - because it's so much worse in many regards, it's now 100€ more expensive. What a rip off.

                                This is just my opinion... The bezel less screen, even though it is big look very small compared to moderate bezel screen..

                                  The side bezels don't look good at all compared to the original. It looks much better on the white version. I might consider getting that one but its going to be expensive.
