Ask for replacement as soon as possible. my first mi 9 se that i've got also have that blue lines at the bottom left of the screen. it is not noticeable when you normally using it but when direct sunlight hits it and the much higher contrast triggers, that's the time that the blue line is appearing. also reported by some users of mi 9 se in the mi 9 se group in facebook. Ask for replacement before its too late.

                  andyl, 06 Jul 2019I have this phone. Coming previously from Nexus 5 and Nexus... moreHello, i just reed your personal REVIEW about Mi9 se.
                  I think the same, almost with your same words.
                  I been using mi5 for 3 years and I love it.
                  The SIZE and Weight is the best for me.
                  When I say the Mi9se , I say that is a good phone.
                  So I went to XIAOMI store in Mexico City and I grab the Phone.
                  I compere with Mi5 and I say... shit
                  I'm gonna need to BUY it.
                  Almost the same size with Mi5.
                  I been playing with it for 5 days.
                  I love it.

                  The only REAL issue that I have. " notifications I do not care, I use my Watch Frontier "
                  Is when I write fast, the Mi9se have a little lag, no like POCO but I feel it.
                  I gonna tray to write slow :P.
                  with Mi5 I can write very very fast with any Keyboard app.
                  Also I test the Poco for 3 days and I sent it back, because you cant Write quickly, ether write very fast.


                  Well, we can only hope that in the future they will solve these problems.
                  Thanks .

                  Fernando O.

And it's actually very good at gaming (highest or second highest settings). Also, it charges very fast as you probably have noticed.

                      And as it is the only newer phone under 6 inches with good specs (except of the far more expensive S10e), we don't really have a choice.

                        I like this phone but the SAR value is more than disturbing.
                        "SAR 1.39 W/kg (head) 1.39 W/kg (body)"
                        why should this phone have a higher SAR values than the Mi9?!?

                          Bought the phone 3 weeks ago, before this I always had the sony Xperia compact series which discontinued.

                          I was aiming at a comparable quality as Snapdragon 675 - 855 processor, with a width of 70mm and not taller than 15cm.
                          I wanted a 6gb, Android one with an Ultra wide and telephoto lens (for night photography) and more than 85% of screen to body ratio.
                          The Mi A3 had a 665 processor and no Telephoto lens. The Pixel 3A has an old design and only 1 good camera.

                          +- The size is oke, but it would be perfect if it was between 5,6' and 5,8' (7 x 14cm)
                          - The battery could be better! Make it a little bit fat, instead of 7.5mm make it upto 9mm with the same edges (safety for the screen and it has a nice grip)

                          + I am not a gamer... The 712 processor, with 6gb RAM, is good enough for daily things.
                          + Quick ball, no buttons, and some other adjustable short cut options (like Oneplus and Motoral, nice feature)

                          - I use Google Go, but the standard browser is a Mi Browser. Don't know how to turn this off!
                          + Xiaomi has a dark mode, which is handy because of the battery (which can be used for 20/28 hours)
                          - No Notification Light!!!
                          - No SD card (always try to make directly a backup of your valuable pictures. Normally my Music will be stored on the SD card instead of Phone).
                          - No 3,5mm (Bluetooth increases the power consumption and 3.5 mm less, Xiaomi gave a USB C > 3.5mm adapter, but you can lose it)

                          If Xiaomi makes a Mi 11/12 SE/T with some nice options (Quick ball, battery saver mode):
                          SD card, 3,5mm, Notification light, newest and best 700+ processor,
                          good camera (Ultra-wide, telephoto (& pop-up > selfie < useless for me, rather have a full screen).
                          And a bit more like motorala/oneplus/ android one style software,
                          With a 5.6/5.8'' & a battery that lasts at least 28h....

                          I will continue to buy a phone from this Chinese brand. Because the price-quality is good

                          BTW Keep in mind:
                          I don't play games or watch movies/shows etc on my phone. I use it to socialize (social media (everything except IG) and telephoning), make notes, check my email, navigation, read news, etc.
                          In the Netherlands, we don't have ads on the software, therefore I can recommend it (for 290 euro, 64gb). A phone with ads or bad ergonomics or other daily functions which arent working perfectly isn't worth your money.

                              BTW, i would recommend nokia or any other android one device such as xiaomi as motorola is so slow in update even in android one devices.

                                Well, i have bought the phone while ago.

                                mi 9se in real life has a good battery life and can take me in my day easily ( im not a gamer, just a normal user with social apps). I was afraid of missing notification as no LED is there and the problem with disappearing notification icons in status bar. However, notifications appear in always on display and that is huge plus !

                                The phone is fast, LTE speed is super with cat 15.

                                Fear nothing if u want to buy it as it is perfect size ( not large or small )

                                Cameras are good enough for normal people.


                                Please, dont be hooked by what tech people say, we are normal people and this phone can do more than what you really need.


                                Only thing i hate, there is 3 option for screen to be resized S, M and L. I wish there will be something between small and medium because the small is letterly tiny.
