    Appreciate this effort from GSMArena. To go and do such a time consuming test for one handset in an ocean of phones (even though it's a flagship), the conclusion will definitely clear some doubts lurking in the minds of people planning to grab one Mi 8 for them.

          So the phone sucks then. Badly designed iPhone X rip off. Stick to Samsung for flagships, Xiaomi are a budget brand. Nothing more

            It's interesting since Mix 2S seems to go full throttle instead. Does it produce higher heat or it's just better on its own?
