      Yet another Xiaomi phone review. They all seem to have the same name.

        IpsDisplay, 23 Jun 2020"Such uneven backlighting is a glaring disadvantage of the ... moreIt is a fact, not correlation. Backlight bleed also happens to LCD screens, but not OLED. Fact.

          Good front camera position, ugly rear camere positiona and design. No 5G. Expensive for that SOC.

            "Such uneven backlighting is a glaring disadvantage of the LCD panels when compared to OLEDs"

            This is just a correlation... And as it grows correlation does not equal to causation

              Why does this receive a worse battery rating than the Note 9s?

                  Xiaomi phones have internal code names (should be in camera sensor names in Hw test --> Software version, enter by clicking Kernel version multiple times in About phone), so these may be useful:

                  Redmi Note 9 merlin
                  Redmi Note 9 Pro (China) curtana
                  Redmi Note 9 Pro (Global) joyeuse
                  Redmi Note 9S (Global) curtana_global
                  Redmi Note 9 Pro Max (China) excalibur
                  Redmi Note 9 Pro (Global) excalibur_global

                  Thus this review is for "joyeuse". That said, you should be able to find out about the front camera sensor. I don't think the 16 MP is quad bayer, just fixed focus probably, like most others.

                    redmi k30 has much muuuuuuuch better main camera, i am really dissapointed, take a look at k30 photos reviewed by gsmarena, if u compare them, k30 photos are superior in terms of details and clarity,specially in corners(but they suffer from yellowish tint).
                    i would buy this phone if it had imx686 sensor, pity
                    i dont know how some youtubers say note9pro has better camera :|

                            Is it me or night pics on xiaomi midrangers keep getting worse and worse? They are a blurry mess, especially with night mode on... Did they do something with the software...? This was a real disappointment for me. Good thing note 8 pro is still available on retailers here in Greece.

                              The camera samples are like oil paintings. I think the Redmi 9 shoots better photos, apart from dynamic range.
