Big deal about the chipset
Umidigi Bison good better cooling system so it keeping at it's maximum amount of performance
The ram on the umidigi the same as the ximomi so but umidigi much cheaper but nearly as good
Plus it's got a better battery then the ximomi that won't degree overtime as quickly

The phone's dimensions should support at least a 5000mAh battery, especially with 9mm thickness.

I have not idea why you even want to compare any Umidigi phone with this. Umidigi Bison charging takes 10 times the time, the camera is a microwave and a toaster combined, the chipset is a budget one from two years ago.. I can get a samsHung s40 on wish for 100$ with 16gb of RAM and 1TB of storage, does that mean that Umidigi is also overpriced? Some people need to tap into their heads to actually realize that prices are based on what they offer.

Kurokaze, 07 Dec 2022No it doesn't. It's a Midranger price, in fact it... moreXimomi is often overpriced
You can find smartphone with 8gb ram & 256 storage from umidigi for less money than this
umidigi bison pro 2 can be for half the price of this
Am sure I saw it under £200 on sale and other umidigi phones similar almost 2 too 1 Better value for money then Xiaomi
There's smartphones have water cooling excellent build quality stable os stock Android ip rating rugged build ok size 5000mah big battery
In general Xiaomi not as good value for money as people believe

Anonymous, 04 Dec 2022Goodluck getting updates on that ZTE, its one of the worst ... moreI prefer the Nubia red magic phones
This one was mentioned as it's a good role model of a good smartphone in terms of hardware and performance as a flagship smartphone
Used too show where ximomi cut corner
in wrong place
I can't see why updates are so important anymore new honestly Android is a mature os now and app compatibility goes back as far as Android 6
So we are only missing out on feature's but functionality the same
Android updates new Android versions lately just make Android more restrictive and locked down ( Android 11 12 & 13) and only slow smartphone down Android 12 has very high system requirements whooping 6gb ram minimum
So a smartphone that comes on a Android version that is stable os running smoothly same forever
That will never change or breaks stuff or mess up legacy app compatibility or delete stuff say stuck on Android 10 for example say forever
The software will work way longer
And be fine way longer than the hardware will be any still good
For example most Android gaming emulator only run Android 7 like Andy OS that is fully functional with good app support even so it's a old version of Android
Do people make custom ROM for them custom ROM are not something am trying too learn more about
As too wanting too learn about custom ROMS
I can see the advantages of custom ROM so u can choose you're os version
Badly need if u get a xioumi because miui is most hated Android version by most people is too why it is so common custom ROM made for xioumi phone

Anonymous, 02 Dec 2022who gives a crap about it "only" having up to 8 g... moreIf this smartphone lasts more than 3 years I be impressed but I think the battery will get all busted up by the fast changing heat damage and the internals will suffer from heat damage
If am not mistaken Xiaomi blocks locks out apps from reading the real temperature reports and benchmarks and specs
If this smartphone still is in working order after 3 years of usage and owner shop and still good enough working order as a smartphone by then
Then it's ok value for money but I highly doubt It
Same for performance will it still be smooth after 3 years time and hardware still be good enough by then

Is point I am making
Should of focus on 48mp selfie & 48mp main camera with 65w changing and 6000mah battery
It's unbelievably unbalanced can't u see that how silly this phone is
Yea it got mega spec but it's not worth it

Sin, 01 Dec 2022but it costs nearly as much a flagshipNo it doesn't. It's a Midranger price, in fact it's on the price of Entry Level Phones from other brands.

GSMARENA make sure to broadcast true specs about your posts. At first, it was explorer, it's now discovery.
And then we where told that, it's all gonna have under the display finger 🖕 print, but now turned again your information that it's side mounted.
Make sure to well inform us please

Anonymous, 02 Dec 2022who gives a crap about it "only" having up to 8 g... moreIt's incredible how companies can deceive users like this one. My dude, almost everyone who is well versed into the phone market already knows the 200MP is going to be upscaled through software from either 12 or 16MP like current phones from this price range do (a good indication of this is the low ultrawide and macro megapixels, which is a standard for low-mid range devices). And 210W charging spells disaster for a battery's longevity, don't even want to imagine how hot it's going to get. Lastly, the 1080p display can be found on the Redmi Note 11 which costs around $170 (half the price of the Note 12 Discovery). Do not get deceived by the "more is better" marketing.

Is it for China or Global?
It would be better if GSMarena would describe ROM version.
For example - phone model (global, china) or (only china) or ( only global).
