Be... moreYeah I have seen those test as well. since the SD 21 ultra scores less than the MI 11 looks like Samsung down-cloks the 888 or limits the power-draw. the two popular theories why they do this are, that they do it to make their own chip seemed comparable to the 888 or to keep the heat and battery drain under control since apparently the MI 11 gets so hot it's uncomfortable to the touch. Pick your poison.

      At that price I'd rather buy a S21(+) which has better quality and no useless macro cam

        Because, in this test it consumed about the same power as Exynos 2100...

        And also in this PUBG test:

        But it's S21 Ultra(E2100) vs S21 Ultra(SD888) here, not S21 Ultra(E2100) vs Mi 11(SD888).

Being the 3rd manufacturer in the world, they know how to sell unlike some dinosaurs who used to compete with Samsung in the early days of smartphones are now close to extinction.

                                LOL, u people never cease to amaze me in badmouthing Chinese smartphones.

                                If not for Xiaomi, nowadays people will still pay 350$ for SD4xx powered smartphones!

                                You people r the reason why companies like Apple are getting away with their exorbitant pricing policy, because you people have always stereotyped 'Chinese phones = cheap.

                                Mi 11 has poor cooling just like iPhone 12 series, which is why it's performance throttles to prevent overheating. But you won't mention it Android hater. Get well soon!

                                      It is already proven to consume too much power and even with the argument of good cooling needed that also points to the chipset inherently getting too hot

                                        iphone 12 series = only FHD, no sd slot, slower storage, no ddr5 , cant record 4K@120, no manual modes for video/photos, screen misses piece, excess of bass to hide poor quality sound, heat issues, no gorilla 6, no toolless sim tray, worst ultra wide among all phones .
