    You're right. Us, people, are so dumb and eager to follow the masses that we would even buy a pile of shit, as long as there is a fancy logo on it including a mindblowing price tag.

      I cannot wait for "another Dynamic Island" looks like.

But we can't deny that for better or worse they're the trend setters of the smartphone industry. You can now expect a deluge of pill cutout devices despite android devices moved to punch hole long ago.

          ThunderCrackR, 28 Sep 2022"imitates Apple’s Dynamic Island" You forgot to ... moreYou forgot to add "... which in turn imitates the punch hole Android manufacturers had for years".

          You mean: "... which in turn recycle the inferior punch hole Android manufacturers had for years but never stuck due to being touted as bland gimmicks".

            It's a nice phone don't get me wrong, but xiaomi is being very cringe 💀

              shalemia, 27 Sep 2022what a mess this comments section are right now...everyone ... moreYes but the difference is that android OEMs have always placed it on the side, this marks the first time it's placed in the center.

                shalemia, 27 Sep 2022what a mess this comments section are right now...everyone ... moreI dont think who implemented it first is important. It is who implemented it the best that counts. Its what people will remember and use.

                  "The most intriguing bit is the dual selfie camera - it is packed inside a pill-shaped punch hole which is now in the center, imitating Apple’s Dynamic Island."

                    Let's wait until others implement their static "dynamic island."
                    As others mentioned, a "dynamic island" should appear anywhere on the screen so that it will remain "dynamic" in any orientation.

                      erodhika94, 27 Sep 2022Do iPhone has thin bezel? No, only symmetrical bezel (thick)Wow, this has thin bezel? I've never seen that on a phone before. This is probably groundbreaking. Original pill-shaped notch from years ago, 2 MP macro, and an overall appearance that's never seen before. Guys, buy this.

                      Somehow, if I look at the 2MP macro on a premium-looking device, I can't help but salivate and prepare my money and order as soon as this comes out. Can't wait.

                            Penk2856, 27 Sep 2022Nice phone for the price except for that punch... Err... p... moreOther android vendors already did that before that dynamic island but they didn't put it on the center

                                      Happy to see Xiaomi is starting to provide different phones with different priority in mind.
                                      * For selfie obsessed: phone that heavily prioritises front cam
                                      *for game lovers: more focus on speed, Battery. Less on camera.

                                      I wish Xiaomi does the same for camera focusing phone too.
                                      * Xiaomi P Max: for people who need all. Main, tele, Ultra wide..
                                      *Xiaomi P wide: only good main and Ultra wide. No other cam.

                                      And for people like me who never use Ultrawide and want the price to be lower without the rubbish ultrawide cam:
                                      * Xiaomi P tele: only good main and tele cam. No Ultra wide wastage.
