I'm using the mi 9se for 4 months now. Superb phone for its price. And most importantly. It's compact form factor.

Whackcar, 22 Nov 2019You wrote Mi Note 10 as the No.1 Camera Phone? That's just ... moreThey enlisted mi note 10 because what you are paying to buy that phone is mostly for those cameras not other stuffs. You can buy 2 mi note 10s with the same price of iPhone 11pro. So, if note mi note 10 even come close(actually it has better main camera than iPhone/Huawei) It deserves to be enlisted.
That's MHO.

My preferred phone don't exist
1. Expandable storage dedicated
2. Headphone Jack
3. Full Hd Screen
4. IP 67 min rating
5. Dual Sim
6. Less than 145mm tall, preferably less than 140mm
7.
My biggest gripe atm is the size of phones and price, I refuse to buy big phones and doublely if theirs no headphone jack and expandable memory.
And the price they are asking is stupid.
I'm exercising my consumer right spending my money else where.

I have been using the OnePlus 7T from over a month now and I wholeheartedly agree with Gsmarena on this one. This is the best and the fastest phone I have ever used hands down. The cameras are decent, the battery life is good, the performance is blazingly fast and OnePlus's resale value is good too. Very nice deal at $529 or Rs38000 in India

yup pretty much agree with the list here less a few differences on the mid range part.
Now if only my wallet would agree with my mind sometimes but it is rather stubborn 99% of the time. Then again it helps keep me in check.

Of course, if you're swapping your phone every year or two you'll never notice that.

The best smartphone of 2019 doesn't exist.
It's a phone with:
* headphone jack
* a 90-120Hz refresh rate AMOLED screen with 16x9 ratio and FullHD+ resolution
* dual SIM
* stereo speakers
* no notch nonsense
* wireless charging
* at least four years of guaranteed updates
* a large battery (at least 4500mAh)
* user-replaceable battery which is easy to buy
Some come close but nothing matches these requirements. Everything on the market today exists to make you buy a new smartphone sooner rather later.

Btw, I just saw that the EU warehouse oneplus 7T just sold out on giztop and is on pre-order now. If someone else decides to jump on that ship or another thing they're selling, don't forget to use the "gtre4" code for additional 4% discount

Whackcar, 22 Nov 2019You wrote Mi Note 10 as the No.1 Camera Phone? That's just ... more100% agree. Hands down both Mate 30 Pro & Iphone 11 Pro Max is the king of 2019 smartphone camera with their own respectable forte.
Mi Note 10 is close, but no way its quality surpass those two.

I'm sorry but there are 2 better flagship killers than the realme x 2 pro, especially given that you comment about EU availability. First, the oneplus 7T 8/256 model can currently be bought for around 445 euro (shipping included) from the European warehouse of Giztop in Germany, so no customs taxes and such and is better deal than the realme given its software experience. And also the ROG 2 can be bought for around 460 eur again available in Europe - yeah, with global version of the software that doesn't support OTA, so you have to update it manually, but still that's a ROG 2 for half the price of the global version.
