You know why the ZTE nubia Red Magic 3s is still my favourite? One of my favourite feature is those two built-in fan.

            Conclusion: I always have a fluid and fast functionality on my phone and I can achieve 2 days of normal use, frequently using apps (even with a quick gaming session of 30 or 45 minutes)

                Thats not for show try to play pubg there. Max settings and you'll feel a hot air outward (like a vent).

I just don't understand if I want a file transfer application I can download it why the heck mi drop needs to be added? This is just one example I can say more name of bloatwares I hope you know it since you know MIUI.

                          After the shame of the newest Nokia models being ridiculous phones (I got myself a 9 PureView and I sold it immediately after because battery drained like crazy and camera being a parcial placebo, or by the fact the 7.2 model having plastic in its construction and Gorilla Glass 3!). . .

                          Now this time it's Asus that is showing that even its gaming brand doesn't worth the actual price they ask.

                          I think this will put Xiaomi in a higher stake. They are constantly scoring points with their gaming brand (one friend of mine has a BS2 and it's actually very good!), with their new "luxury" model (Mi MIX Alpha) and other Mi powerful and gorgeous models and with their great price/specs and very good looking affordable Redmi models,. . .I think Xiaomi could became even the 2nd brand, right after Samsung, if Huawei falls by not having top models with Google services anymore (Mate 30 series are missing the spotlight).

                          P.S.: I like the combination of MIUI (Android with skin) + Snapdragon SoC (powerful GPU, and more compatible with Google Camera)

                                That's the major problem with Chinese brands..they cut cost in the place of affordability but will still tell little lies while over hyping each of their devices..take a look at specifications of thier phones on their official sites..you'll find out only about 70% is true..and even their most premium brand(Huawei) has gotten fond of it in the last 2yrs. Apple & Sammy may have slow charging or some other questionable specs and ommisions but they don't lie about it.I was actually considering this phone..shame

                                      That title is biased. People who scroll though your main page without actually reading individual articles will be left with incorrect information in their brain.

                                      As Zack (JerryRig) points out in the video, this phone actually has the largest vapor chamber on any phone yet. That certainly deserves appreciation.
