Bro, 14 May 2023Then nobody should be buying merc and bmw. Btw you anyways ... moreHow's a fingerprint sensor go to do with Mercedes and BMW?? What's the link??

    Did the reviewer just say the a34 panel thats only 8bit is on par with a 12 bit dolby vision panel? Still thinking slightly higher brightness means better or something.

    The a34 is not on par if we're talking specs, it has better water resistance, thats it (virtual proximity, worse SoC, heavier, just looks worse imo). Better wifi standards, IR blaster, faster charging, better SoC, better screen on the poco/note 12 turbo (microSD on a34, headphone jack on poco/note). Oh and they fail to mention the a34 base model is 6gb not 8gb so probably why its slightly cheaper. Also saying side mointed FP is a negative yet put phones having a jack or MicroSD as a positive (double standards when they are personal choices if you prefer them or not? To me a built in stylus is a negative but i guess the reviewers dont include their reviews include personal bias lol.)

    Nothing 1 is more expensive and is only better with the back cams, either on par or worse in most aspects including software (it has super slow wireless charging if thats worth anything...maybe).

        Double tap to wake and turn off display is like one of the most important features to me on a phone. I want it on.

                The pocket mode on this phone for sure doesn't work at all. To compare pixel phones works perfectly. Cover the top of the phone and either double tap to wake or wake the display. The screen comes on and is fully interactive.

                I've pocket dialed numbers today like an old person that doesn't know how to lock their phone. But my phone was locked.

                What's the point of fitting a proximity sensor if you're not going to use it Xiaomi? It takes seconds to test this, how could you not have tested this before releasing your phone?

                      Gusta, 14 May 20237+ Gen 2 should be use on the successor of Xiaomi 12X. Ther... moreThen it'll cost at least 30% more due to it being pure Xiaomi and not sub brand. And why would you make smaller phone just to serve the minority that want smaller phone, just look at iphone mini series, they close the production line bc it's not selling well. In the end it's all abt cost and profit

                        Zuzuz, 14 May 2023I bet that F5, without updates will kill your phone in term... moreProbably not, cause i dont use same phone 4 years 😘
