Axon 7 to mi max ? - Xiaomi Mi Max Questions & Answers

I currently have a axon 7 ..I don't really like It and I get bad battery life..how do you guys like the mi max ? How's the cameras ,battery and screen ? Is there another phone same size or bigger that's better then the mi max ? Thanks

Bigger yes, the new Zen phone ultra. Has less battery life than the max
Max has exceptional battery life and good development as well.

MI max is good. Go for it

The battery life on the Mi Max is dope. Easily getting 7-8 hours of SOT. However, the camera is total crap, despite what people say here. You compare it to anything on the market out there, and it's just crap. Don't get the phone for the camera. Get it for everything else.

Asus Zenfone 2 battery life problem (4gb ram,32gb storage )

This phone is great,the camera is average,did bad shots in night times still acceptable as I know this is a budget gadget . Even with the 3000 mah battery,it hardly managed for daily moderate used (no gaming,just music ,camera and browsing ) . Any users shared my feeling or experiencing same problem ??
I feel you! :crying: It's the Lollipop 5.0 version, Wi-Fi bug that causes the battery to drain fast, However the Quick Charging 2.0 suffice the trouble for fast battery drain, instead of 4hrs charging time you only need to charge it for almost 2hrs(from 0% to 100%), for now we'll just have to wait for the fix on Marshmallow update this coming April.
Have you even looked at this forum?? There are many posts about this.

But sadly my decide wasn't rooted ..
from my experience, at least you should get 3 - 4 hour Screen on time. from full to dead
Yeah battery is a prob. Its not even 2K resolution. I hoped it should be better but no. I have galaxy s6 edge also with 2600mh battery and 2k display and that does much better than asus.
I charge my device every other night, of course I don't use it as much as yall, and I also got the Zenpower powerbank that its like 10500mah so Im pretty happy. Lets hope battery life gets better with Android 6. Bloatware is the only thing I dont like of this phone.

Does the Mix or mix 2 have the best battery life?

I'm looking for a new phone and I saw the Mi Mix and the Mi Mix 2, so I was wondering if the Original Mix or the Mix 2 has the best battery life and how much better is it?
The mix 2 has excellent battery life.
I had the mix 1. Though it was awesome battery life (battery was huge on that beast) the Mix 2 in comparison is fine. I was honestly a little worried since the battery was smaller. The overall user experience is so much better overall with the 2 I honestly cannot recommend the one though for just the battery life.
I'd say I average about 36 hours battery life with the Mi Mix 2. That's with about 3 hours of SOT.
i have the two devices and battery life is the same for us

It's a newer refined phone

Refined?
All speak of the 1 as a better looking phone
It may look better because the bezels look relatively thinner (same amount of food, different size plates comparison)
Smaller battery but also slightly smaller screen so power consumption may still be similar. And perhaps a more efficient CPU?

Limiting the CPU speed to increase battery life

Just got my Mi Mix 2 from China in the mail. Flashed it with the official Miui 9.1 Global ROM last night. Love my new phone.
On my old HTC (One X) and Sony (Xperia Z3) phones, they both had this stamina mode where by the software limits the maximum operating frequency of the CPU. With it on, I get a slower CPU that burns less power. I find this to be perfect for me because I use my phone to check bitcoin prices many times each hour. Does our Mi Mix 2 has a similar feature?

Why would you care on a phone that easily gets 6+ hours SOT?

That is because sometimes 6+ hours of SOT isn't enough my man.
I set the screen brightness to low; turned off the NFC, GPS, and Bluetooth; set the phone to no vibration and no extra taping or keyboard sound. But I need more bro. That's why I though of reducing the CPU clock speed.
Is there a way to reduce the screen resolution? I maybe able to save some juice that way too.
It`s easier to buy a now phone.
The kernel and properly the battery are the problem. If you limit CPU (down clock) you will have a very very slow phone. I did it once with my s6 and the battery usage still worst and the OS become to slow.
I bought a MI MIX 2 and today I`m pretty satisfied.
For me I'm use Kernel Adiutor(Root) to down clock CPU and GPU speed 50%.So increase battery life more 1 hours.But in game FPS drop from 60 to 35 FPS but it no problem for me to play in low FPS.

Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB variant compares with Mi Max 3 6GB variant

Hi guys,
How Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB variant compares with Mi Max 3?
I feel Mi Max 3 will be on positive side for
1. bigger battery (5500 mAh vs 5000 mAh)
2. quick charge 3
3. IR blaster
Whereas Asus Zenfone Max Pro M1 6GB variant will be on positive side for
1. Near stock android (vs MIUI)
I use Nexus 6. I do a lot reading on it. Many times I read in split screen mode in two apps (say two instances of Microsoft Word, one through ES Parallel Space). Nexus 6 has broader screen (16:9 ratio). It was launched in 2014, but still have higher resolution and pixel density than both Max 3 and Zenfone!!! This makes it best to read in split screen mode in two apps. So I feel bigger screen of Mi Max 3 will be suitable for this purpose.
Also its stock android is great. Split screen functionality of Stock Naugat is better than that of MIUI.
I also feel MIUI provides better control over backgound apps and hence battery. I live with my four year old Nexus 6 in always on battery saver mode. This helps to extend battery life to at least 1 day. If I dont use battery saver mode, it will barely last for 15 hours. Also my Nexus 6 lags quite a lot now. Opening some 40 page word docs takes at least 5 sec. Will all this be gone with both Max 3 or Zenfone?
Also Nexus 6 had great camera with OIS. Mi Max 3 have AI camera while Asus Zenfone have 16MP phone. Dont know which one will have better camera at least better than Nexus 6?
So was guessing what will be best choice for me.
Hi there. I think you are comparing apples with oranges. MM3 is 6.9, Max Pro M1 is 5.99. It is a perfect hardware match for redmi note 5 - so there you should compare. Regards!

yeah I know there is 0.9" difference.
But I am not trying to compare them with each other, but with my usage scenario. Thats why I explained how I usually use it.
Usage scenario 1: Two Microsoft Word documents in split screen mode each 40+ page.
Usage scenario 2: Satisfying camera (at least better than Nexus 6)
I believe broader screen like Nexus 6 serves better when it comes to my usage scenario 1. Zenfone seems a bit narrower. In fact, in todays market, most 6" phone is narrower than 6" Nexus 6 due to their 18:9 ratio (Nexus 6 is 16:9). Also two instances of Word should work smoothly in split screen. My 4 year old Nexus 6 lags considerably at this. I dont know what is culprit: old processor (but its 2.6GHz quad core)? slower / smaller RAM? or battery?
On paper, M1 is good but users report M1 has some problem included multitouch problem, not so good on battery/matterial quality
Ho boy.. I have Nexus 6 too. Was my daily driver until I ditched it for good with my Max 2. The worst thing about Nexus 6 was the camera, it's barely useable. Also fingerprint, the battery and SoC efficiency, I would trade AMOLED 1440p and front firing speakers for those any time of the day. Once you are in 10+ hours SOT territory you don't ever want to go back.
Also MIUI is not that bad at all, it's not as intrusive and forceful as Huawei EMUI. It looks clean and still have material design language.

Review required from anyone updated from Oneplus 3 to Note 5 Pro

Hello / As Salam o Alikum Guys
I am currently using Oneplus 3 but all the mobiles coming these days are with full view display. I like the new shape of mobiles and interested in selling my op3 and buying Note 5 Pro. But i need review from anyone who moved from Oneplus 3 to Note 5 Pro. I need to know about its gaming performance, sound, display, battery and overall as daily driver performance. Please help me out guys.
Thanks

Hi. I didn't come from OP3, I have used Mi 5 which also has SD820 like Op3 So I can't tell about OS optimization as OP3 has Oxygen OS. Battery life is definately better than mi 5. I usually got 5.30to 6.00hr sot with Mi 5 whereas now with Redmi note 5 ai I get 9-11hour sot but remember Redmi note 5 ai/pro comes with 4000mah battery whereas Mi 5 or OP3 has 3000mah battery. Gaming sot is different. Gaming is more less same but Graphics is slightly lower than Mi 5. I didn't notice any performance issue with RN5 as I use less apps. Multi tasking is fine. Sound quality relatively same. If you want Full view display and battery life then go for Redmi note 5 pro or ai with higher rams. Otherwise stick with your OP3. Hope it helps.
Cheers.
comming from op3T -> way better battery life, videos are crap, camera is slow and slightly worse, occasional stutter and this phone may require a little bit more patience than the OP3.
