Najib1312, 10 Jun 2019I'm having similar confusions like you. In the end I chose ... moreI disagree to say that OPPO Color OS is better than MIUI.
Ok, on basic, I have nothing against these UI thing, since it doesn't affect the usage of apps and gaming for daily usage, it get the job done.
The only problem is the updates. OPPO have this track record on bad Android update, you can read these comments on GSMArena forum, they won't give any update even the device is still within one year, and even if they provide update, they are much slower update than other brand.
Recently on June 2019 their sibling only give Android Pie updates for Vivo and Realme smartphone, but OPPO side of phone still wait, while many flagship phone already get the Pie update before 2019.
You need to understand no phone is perfect, and also there will be newer and better phone release in the future, so it is actually unfair to compare a phone that is recently released to a phone that is released earlier.
Then, price point is also a thing. SD855 in Mi9 definitely trump over the SD710 on the normal Reno, on par with Reno 10x with the same SD855, but the price point sold is higher than Samsung Galaxy S10 Plus in my country, of course Mi9 128GB is much cheaper than OPPO Reno 10x Zoom.
It is a choice, if you just focus on camera, then OPPO Reno might be the better choice, but you cannot omit all it's downside due to you being favor more for only the camera, where you assume camera is everything.

    MHM, 28 May 2019Mi 9 or S10 ? I assume you mean the sd 855 s10 then yes overall the s10 would be better, but if its the exynos variant than maybe mi 9. hope this helps.

      Maf, 16 Jun 2019My phone often hang & reboot by itselfAre you in beta test? If yes it is better to go back to stable version.. If not try to factory reset

            mi9 is the nr.1 flagship now as you can't really get anything better. S10 doesn't look rootable, no ROMs published. Onepluses ain't got no wireless charging, or LED light. And that's it.

            can't believe i'm charging 20 straight watts without cable! that's the innovation samsung should have brought 5y ago. also i have very thin and light magnets attached to the case, so i can come to the car and it will stick to the magnetic holder and charge! Before, i used to place it in a giant holder, then lock it, and then attach a cable - that was inconvenient.

            regarding battery, it looked poor in the beginning, but once settled in, it's pretty good. Leaving home with 75% left with permanent bt, vpn, location tracking and tons of stuff. No worries that the phone would be discharged next day. 1+ is even better, true, like perhaps staying 2 days. But i got rid of it because of very slow cable charging and no wireless charging.

May I ask you what kind of usage you have with your phone? I have many meetings along the day (every day), so you know, files and sheets opened on the phone, and screen on consuming battery... Constantly these meetings are in places where I won't have a plug to recharge it, or it would be inconvenient to do so. Plus, I do a lot of videocalls and that also demands usage of the phone. A powerbank (I've got one from Xiaomi some time ago) would probably solve the case but I would like not to depend on it. I currently use a Moto Z Play (first generation, love its screen), which has a good battery life for my needs.

                            Sahil, 13 Jun 2019Why Mi 9 over galaxy S9??For everything, better processor, better camera and longer software support.

                              Dunno why this phone has 95h hours battery endurance rating while the battery mah is not large and the cell standby is very drainy. It has worse battery than my previous Mi Mix 2s which has 55h rating (whut the??). I wont believe in this site battery rating anymore..

Though no phone is the perfect phone but some are way out of the league of others.
