      People complaining about battery endurance.
      Except OP8 Pro, the other QHD phones put up similar results.
      Between 78-90h.

      Do not forget this new screen has 82,3% more pixels compared to mi10.

        Another Flagship by xiaomi, another FAILURE..
        As a Xiaomi fan, i'd never understood why they always fail in Flagship Area while they are sorta Superior in Mid-Rangers...
        I'll wait for Pro/Ultra edition or even future Redmi K series

              Zero difference between this and plastic of A series.

                I would pick the 870 it's better choice for me cuz i'm power user .till they fix the problem of this chip...otherwise we dun need to die from a phone explosion...

                    Technically, 5 nm means lower power consumption and heat emission, right?

                    Then why are all they heating up so bad so as to give an error message in 12-15 seconds of a high end graphics test?
                    What is happening & why?

                      A company not officially repairing my Redmi 2 Prime, is citing environmental concerns to remove (rare-) fast chargers from flagships...

                      Amazing.

Doesn’t seem to struggle much as well. Tests are done in controlled conditions. Still gets hot to the touch anyway because of lack of cooling.

                          I have a Samsung S20 FE 5G running on Snapdragon 865 and has some thermal solution and as I said before the framerates are horrible even at medium 30 frames settings. I also have graphical glitches which luckily I managed to get a screenshot (can show you). My iPhone 11 runs a lot smoother, but gets as warm. The optimisation of the game is very poor overall.

                          I think Gary Explains is right. Actually I suggest you to watch Gary Explains A14 throttling. iPhone 12 on Speed Test G benchmark barely throttles, if any, compared to the iPhone 11 Pro Max with 15% throttling under same conditions.

                          Cooling is important on a phone but this is not a gaming PC with lots of vapor chambers and heat pipes. Phones have many limitations when it comes to gaming.

                            It's the good'ol Antutu test that exposes the A14 chip, where it loses 25%-30% performance over the repeated benchmarks.
                            Exynos 2100 seems to be in a similar category.

                              Cameras aren't good enough, it is about time manufacturers gave up on niche close-up and portrait lenses just to get a 'four' camera count. A telephoto doubling up for close-up and portrait is a far better solution.

                                MrDong, 18 Feb 2021A14 no longer has a thermal issue after iOS 14.3. And check... moreEven on iOS 14.4, it thermal throttles in heavy games like Genshin Impact after 5-10 minutes and gives an average of 45fps. That's what you get, when a company cheapens out in the cooling department on a flagship phone.
                                Snapdragon 888 and Kirin 9000 can easily churn out 55fps and above for over an hour.

                                    Its getting harder and harder to excel for each new generation of mobile phone. In some points Mi 11 delivers dissapointment. This makes Mi 10 an even better purchase.

                                      Nick Tegrataker, 18 Feb 2021From Wikipedia: "Polycarbonates (PC) are a group of t... moreI know it's plastic but people over here can't differentiate between high end matte finish plastic vs Cheap feeling plastic. They all have this tendency to group everything into one group.
                                      These guys do the same for Lcd vs AMOLED.
                                      They'll praise a low end AMOLED over a high end Lcd just because it is AMOLED.
