    I've had this phone for well over a year (nearly 2). I got it for 430€.
    Battery life is ok (lasts me a day, but with decent/heavy use does need a charge before bedtime), software is good honestly (running latest android and HyperOS right now)
    Camera is good (comparable to the newest flagships when using the main lens), and for video if you know what you're doing with pro mode, your footage will look better than the newest iPhones (also supports LOG)
    Speakers are good (better than any samsung S-series phone, including S24U honestly) but not as good as you'd find on new iPhones and ROG/gaming phones.
    Screen is good except it just doesn't get bright enough, for a 2021(22) flagship I'd hope for 1000nits+ but it just doesn't have it. It's unfortunate (or fortunate?) to see midrangers today doing 1500 w/ HBM whilst I'm sitting at 800-900 with a "flagship" phone. Other than the 120Hz, the screen hasn't felt much of an upgrade from a midrange 2019 Mi 9T. Also the fact that manual brightness maxes out at 500 is embarrassing and way too common. Also it not getting dim enough is also somewhat of a problem.

    I do have to say that out of the box, when it was on MIUI 13, it was extremely buggy and also had ads (had to disable them). It was also overheating and the battery life was horrendous, worse than a bigger Mi 9T (9T also has a smaller battery). But after the updates it has improved a lot.

    I feel like for the price I got it for (and it stayed at it for a year), even now, it'd beat almost every if not every phone in the 300-450€ price bracket, so I'm happy. I've had a jab at the nothing phone(s) and they're not even close honestly.
