In specs P20 PRO's thickness is 7.8mm, while mi9 has only 7.6mm. If you lid them on a table next to each others, mi9 is more fat (and you can feel it also in your palm). I do not like this habit of vendors about define thicknes on a random point of the phones in their marketing strategy, as I made my decision next to mi9 finaly based on that is thinner than P20 Pro (there are not too much further differences - for me).

Otherwise mi9 itself is brilliant in each segments what I use (I do not play games on it): super fast, great battery life, and it's photos and videos are pretty brilliant also in half-dark places (P30 is better in really dark places, but that is for double price). Stable, good-working face-recognation, etc, I am happy with it.

            I have it and couple of days ago I recorded a very large video, 15 minutes or so. My previous phones would, just after 10 or less minutes, turn the camera off and enter the cool down mode, but this machine just keep things the way they are. And yes, It didn't overheat.

                    Guys do you notice that the phone is getting hot when playing pubg? Hot really hot! They said the phone is not getting hot like huawei flagship with kirin 980.. But i see it is really getting hot... The screen on the upper body specially.. And more heat when playing at 60 fps! This is not a good sign! But with the heat and the phone perform great with no lag at all.. Do you see that too guys??

                          Added S10 to flagship collection, it's not very strong competitor to the 2019 nr. 1 flagship Mi9, but might pick it as daily driver due to some reasons (e.g the MIUI repelent). OnePlus has to go, this is a dead brand without wireless charging + too heavy for anybody for already 2 generations. Keeping Mi9 and S10. Compare advantages:
                          Mi9:
                          - 2x faster UI
                          - 2x faster fingerprint
                          - 2x faster charging (nr.1 worldwide, Mi9 Qi faster than S10 cable and 2x faster than Samsung fake "15W"!)
                          - faster USB (via USB2, still faster than Samsung USB3)
                          - LED light
                          - battery is greater
                          S10:
                          - much much better OS in almost every aspect vs disfunctional and ugly MIUI, lots of productivity tools
                          - SD card 1TB for music and easy backups (failover mode)
                          - the jack
                          - cutout seems less annoying than notch (OnePlus can hide it in smartest way)
                          - lighter, compacter and waterproof certified
                          Equal:
                          - sensors: infra vs hearbeat/barometer, similar value
                          - rootability: both are terrible at it (here OnePlus is the king)
                          - design: both sexy unlike OnePlus6-7, S10 edgy but Mi9 curved back & thinner
                          - bloatware: they can shake hands, tons of spyware on both
                          Maybe mention 6T also:
                          - 2x faster UI
                          - 2x faster fingerprint
                          - battery is super fantastic against both
                          - notch with best cutout
                          - fantastic doze gestures
                          - super easy to root
                          - least bloatware in the industry
                          Rest is disadvantes: horrid charging via non-standard warp, no Qi, no sensors, heavy, ugly, thick, too plain software, no LED, no SD, no jack. Removed from flagship category due to poor charging process. Even if they fixed this, it'd be too heavy for daily use.

                            Regarding battery. It's really good. 72hrs without charge, 15% left. 4h 12min SoT and 1hr of phone calls. You have to worry only if you do heavy gaming. But then any battery will be an issue.

                              Very good , i bought it, first i thought battery would be an issue but later i found out in full charge you can use social apps like Facebook and Instagram for around 7 to 8 hours a day which is quite amazing for 3300 mAh battery 🔋,
                              Also you can enjoy this even more with the 27W quick charge 4+ which can charge your phone from 1 to 100 in just 55 minute . So if there's anyone that think the battery is a problem i would like to say that from my experience it isn't a problem.

                                Here is the thing about battery life.
                                Smartphone are designed as a phone, and also be designed to last for at least one day for talk time.
                                Those who compare gaming longevity are just pointless. Even many flagship nowadays offer up to 4000mah battery, the gaming longevity does not go all the way much longer.
                                For smartphone like Xiaomi Mi9, good thing is I can use the saved money to buy accessory.
                                A compact powerbank/power pack with QC3.0 capability from Xiaomi is a good start if worry your phone always need to get recharged.
                                Then, car charger with QC3.0 also is a good investment, probably a cheap one will do the job. Cable would be just any type C cable that is able to transfer data, as long as safe to be used, regardless of pricing.
                                Please, if you really want to blame, blame Apple iPhone that start the trend of non-removable battery that now become stand for all smartphone.
                                Water resistant feature, premium glass/metal body unibody design also are the factors to blame for implementing non-removable battery.
                                If you still complain about battery life, then stop using smartphone.

                                      I want to buy the mi9 but I'm a bit insecure about the battery, I do not play games nor am I demanding too much, but for now it's the only thing that holds me back.

                                      Without external apps, does anyone know when the update is extended to solve the problem of notifications in the status bar? Thank you !!!
