Anonymous, 18 Jun 2020Not many people can understand why you're asking such quest... moreYou are wrong. Why i know that. Well because its my job. Without polarizer there is no content. But hey be my guest and state otherwise. I have machines that take away the polarier and machines that set up nee polarizer. And ive repaired tons of mobiles! You have that content on youtube as well but its not shown on most common solutions because polarizers are always saved. It eould require a bad repairman to damage a polarizer!!!!

Djikstorm, 18 Jun 2020Doesn't work on the older oneEvery phone out there uses polarized layer which is the layer which sits on top. Without polarized layer there is only white color. Lcd and amoled. There is different types of polarized layers which are different like iphone and samsung layers. But they are seen even if they are switchable between those two oems. The only reason is they are not compatible is the saturation or effectivness of colors. In plain text they are somewhat washed out if not compatible (dedicated) polazirer which is ment for that particular model or oem. Seeing through polarized glasses on polarized screen doesnt do that much except darkens the brightness. Same thing goes if there are two layers on lcd or amoled. Its mosed used by us (me included) to darken the mistakes which are visible by one layer. But us i mean if there was a failure in repairng the screen which almost never happens. So the method is the same with polarized glasses on already polarized screen. The only way colors or anything is not seen if glasses are cheap. Which maybe doesnt match with polarized layer spectrum. But however its cool to have secret mode but its not that practical in reality.

A single isolated case and you call on everybody to stop buying a great value phone. If your seller was really a legitimate one, the seller would have honored replacement or refund. Not all sellers are authorized by Xiaomi. Those that do, certainly will accept refund, repair or replacement during the warranty period.

raycon, 18 Jun 2020I didn't even open the selfie camera 10 since I got it. you... moreLook, read again my statement. I never said you were a liar. You have a lemon. Deal with it. Pop-up cameras are rated to last longer than you'll ever use the phone. Your battery and amoled screen will start failing first before the pop up experiences problems in normal settings. As I said, if yours died in two weeks, you have a lemon - a factory defect. Deal with it with your seller. Good sellers honor customer replacement and refunds. All phones have production defectives. No point criticizing isolated pop ups camera failures unless you can prove they are widespread in which case older phone models from Xiaomi or other brands with pop up cameras would have had already product recalls like the Note 7's exploding battery.

not to mention the heating issues I have with it now. before I was getting 9h of SoT, after 2 weeks I barely get 5h. buyers beware. Make sure you buy it from xiaomi itself otherwise they'll say that they can't fix it for you.

Anonymous, 18 Jun 2020OP7 and no need to explain why. It's a far better phone. BT... moreActually, anybody can disable the ads in the Poco. No solution though to remove the ugly notch in the Oneplus 7T or upgrade its older snapdragon processor to have superfast 5G or . Also, can't use a wired headphone on the Oneplus without buying an adapter. No master remote too. So yes, Oneplus is better, no explanation needed.

RiV, 13 Jun 2020obviously they will fix it..if you pay they will.. btw xiao... moreI didn't even open the selfie camera 10 since I got it. you don't believe me now, buy it and you'll see. if it's not a wide spread issue yet, it will be. it's funny how people make me a liar when they don't even have the phone. Xiaomi will not fix it even if I pay. I can post their email if you want. word will go out eventually and people will open their eyes to see exactly how Xiaomi deals with things like this. they asked me to go to a third party repair centre. I bought it from Spain and according to EU legislation and Xiaomi's own website I can claim warranty in UK, but in the email they said they can only repair it if I bought it from UK. I don't have the time or budget to sue them, I can only post comments online so people may see it, but you are all calling me a liar. If you buy it and it brakes good for you!

Djikstorm, 18 Jun 2020Can you see the screen with polarized sunglasses? Not many people can understand why you're asking such question.
Most newer phones (amoled in particular), no longer have 100% polarized screens. The original Mi Max phone had 100% polarized IPS display which means you have to rotate the phone from portrait to landscape to be able to see the screen with polarized sunglasses!
Most LCD tv's also exhibit the same behavior although since tv's are already oriented in 'landscape', people don't seem to notice they output polarized light not until they use polarized sunglasses/lenses and tilt their head 90 degrees from vertical (head in horizontal position) and watch the same LCD tv with polarized glasses on.

Chrsjns, 17 Jun 2020Is the poco f2pro the same phone as the redmi k30pro? They ... moreYes and No.
Both phones have exactly the same hardware components and build except for the phone name/label. However, the K30 PRO runs on official MIUI China ROM (no Google Playstore, Play Services or Google apps - Gmail, YouTube, etc.), while the Poco F2 PRO runs on Global MIUI ROM (with official Google Playstore, Play Services, and Google apps).
Google Playstore and other Google apps can be installed/sideloaded in K30 PRO with official MIUI China ROM but they can be very buggy. Also, the same post-installed Google apps (including Playstore) can be uninstalled anytime; in fact, factory resetting a K30 PRO phone with official MIUI China ROM can remove Google apps (including Playstore) so you'll have to reinstall them again.
Some K30 PRO units may also have fake global ROMs or what's called a 'vendor' ROM. They can have 'unofficial/sideloaded' Google Playstore, Play Services and Google apps but they have unlocked bootloaders (open padlock icon upon boot) so the device security is doubtful. Vendor ROMs do not get updated at all (TRANSLATION: No android security or software updates forever) and the Google apps that run on them can be very buggy with no software updates at all to fix them.
