Outcomes

Despite the huge diagonal, Xiaomi Mi Max turned out to be extremely rare convenient smartphone with good filling and optimized software... In the near future, we should expect firmware updates that will increase autonomy. But now, taking into account the current exchange rate, this is a replacement for the Xperia Z Ultra.

Thank you all for your attention. I hope you enjoyed this collection and that you spent your time well. Also don't forget to subscribe to my YouTube channel, so as not to miss new collections and reviews interesting devices... In the meantime, you can see the already available collections of new products from Xiaomi on the links below. Good luck to everyone and Have a good mood... Bye.

Good day, dear readers. We wanted to buy ourselves new phone from Xiaomi and confused among a huge number of names? Then you have come to the right place, now we will try to dispel all the misunderstandings and suggest a choice.

What will we choose from?

First, decide on a budget. Answer the question: "How much am I willing to spend?" The company maintains two lines:

  • Redmi - predominantly budget smartphones, usually with good performance, but with an average to below average camera. Cost ~ $ 100-220, excluding some exceptions.
  • MI - flagships, the best hardware and a good camera. Cost ~ from 250 $

Why do you need a smartphone?

So, we have decided on the budget. Now let's think about the preferred scenario for using the device. Let's conditionally divide smartphones into the following categories:

  • For social networks and internet(minimum price, very simple camera, HD-display, capacious battery).
  • For games(adequate price, middle chamber, large HD / FullHD display, economical and moderately powerful processor).
  • One-stop solution(this category will include last year's flagships, the power reserve of which will be enough for any task, and the camera will leave a purely pleasant experience).
  • Everything at once(here will be the most expensive and up-to-date models).

For social networks and internet

As agreed, here we will include the most budget options, also, if the money is very tight, I advise you to pay attention to the used variants of the 3rd generation, we will start with them.


The model is no longer on sale in stores, but on Avito and others trading platforms you won't have to search for a long time. Is it a joke? Five thousand rubles for the Qualcomm Snapdragon 616 and a 4100 mAh battery, complete with a 5 ″ HD display. Just do not forget to ask the owner to log out of all accounts, and also carefully check the phone. For the above task, Redmi 3 will do with a bang. Do you want something more? Please!

Here the display has grown to 5.5 ″, and the resolution has become Full HD. And the Qualcomm Snapdragon 650 processor will allow you to run any toys. Did I mention the fingerprint scanner? All together it will cost 12,000 rubles (in the store) and from 7,000 in the used market.

To be honest, I did not understand at all how this phone was awarded the MI mark. From the flagship he has only ... Hmm, really, what ... Qualcomm Snapdragon 615? If you remember, Redmi 3 616 has a version. Plus, not best camera... However, you will find an option for less than 9 tr., You can think about buying, but it is better to pay extra and buy something more sane. We definitely do not recommend it.

And here is just something worthwhile. For 10,000 we get a monolithic metal case, a fingerprint sensor and sufficient performance, which is enough even to run new games at medium-low settings. Just keep in mind that the display is only HD, but you will hardly notice the pixels. In general, you can take it, but there is also a fly in the ointment - a camera of stars from the sky is not enough. You can buy this gadget at a low price from a reliable seller!

And this option is perfect for those who want a compact option for minimal money. Seven and a half thousand rubles in Russia and less than 5000 rubles in the Heavens. Advantages: good build, non-slippery body, the camera in good lighting will not disappoint. I would like to note that the “big brother” has appeared on the market - Xiaomi Redmi 4X. Yes, something is better, but the changes are so minor that the overpayment is not worth it, especially when it comes about every penny. We advise you to buy this gadget here!

Smartphones for games

Are you going to spend time in tank battles or burning rubber in a virtual supercar? Then I advise you to pay attention to the following models:

A large 5.5 ″ display, Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 and Adreno 506 paired with a 4100 mAh battery will allow you to enjoy your favorite games without any problems, and the metal case will help to distribute heat evenly. The disadvantages are the same: the average camera and, perhaps, everything. And what did you want for twelve thousand? If you are interested game tests, I paint:

Asphalt 8: 27+ fps *

Asphalt Xtreme: 30 fps

NFS: No limits: 30 fps

Gear.Club: 30 fps

Dead Trigger 2: 45-60 fps

WoT Blitz (ultra, no anti-aliasing): 30-60 fps

*FPS(Frames Per Second) - the number of frames per second, a comfortable value starts from 24+.

Xiaomi Mi Max 1 or 2

Both smartphones are huge and look more like a small tablet. Still would! 6.44 ″ display. Does this bother you? Then take a look at these giants. If you only need games and watching movies from such a phone, then pay attention to the first version of Mi Max (~ 20 tons), but Mi Max 2 is better in terms of the camera (Sony IMX386, as in the flagship Mi6), although and the hardware was upgraded as well, but not so that it would change the situation much. Personally, I would have paid a couple of thousand and still bought Mi Max 2 (we recommend buying). Eh, I just want to write the name of this model in caps ...

One-stop solution

Believe it or not, the device was released already in 2014, but is still sold in many online stores, while the cost starts from 8,000 rubles, it is also interesting that in terms of characteristics, the model does not lag behind even the current new Redmi products. but in terms of the camera, it generally goes far ahead. Of the minuses - a hot processor and the lack of up-to-date firmware, that is, you have to get confused with finding and installing it. I also advise you to pay attention to Mi4S and MI4C, they have the same problems, but if this does not stop you, then I can safely recommend buying (preferably on Aliexpress).

Xiaomi Mi 5

Beautiful, lightweight (129 g.), Powerful, but delicate, yes, it is strange to characterize a smartphone like that, but the main materials are metal and glass. Be sure to buy a bumper and screen protector. There is another pitfall - the lack of a memory card, so I advise you to fork out for a version with 64 GB of internal memory, the issue price is ~ 19,000 rubles. Order at the lowest price!

"Big brother" MI5, but already in metal case with newfangled 2.5D glass. The performance has also grown, but at the same time the price has also increased - from 21,000 rubles. I recommend taking it only if you are strongly against the MI5 glass case. To order!

A phone with a unique processor from Xiaomi, a chic design, but still an unreasonably high price of ~ 15,000 rubles. Once again, I don't understand why Xiaomi does not put a memory card slot in the flagship line, since 64 GB of internal memory corrects the situation. But what cannot be fixed is the battery, whose capacity is only 2860 mAh, there is no NFC, which is not characteristic of the 5th generation MI, and there are also complaints about the reception of 4G networks in Russia. Is it worth paying for an experiment? Decide for yourself. To order!

Everything at once

We pay ~ 32 tons. and we get: a gorgeous glass case, dual camera, the most powerful Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chip on the market and a bunch of other pluses that you can read about in those. passport, let's talk about the cons. So, the lack of full-fledged moisture protection, the lack of a 3.5-mm jack, not the best implementation of the camera at the software level (although this will be corrected over time), well, that's all. If the money allows, take it, you will not be disappointed. Order at an affordable price!

The most unusual model companies. A bezelless 6.4 ″ display with a resolution of 2040 × 1080, a serious 4400 mAh battery, a huge amount of memory (128 GB of built-in and 4 GB of RAM), but not the best camera, a fragile body and a price of 35,000 rubles overlap the advantages of a smartphone. It is beautiful, but impractical, engineers invented it with the thought: "Look how we can!". Perhaps that is why the device was not widely used. The idea is really cool, and if you share it, wait for the continuation of the line - MI Mix 2. Order!

Want an anecdote? It means that a person comes to the store, chooses a smartphone, pays 29,000, and his buttons glow unevenly! Funny? So I don’t. So also, it would seem, the main feature of the device is the curved display, and that came out not the best, small viewing angles spoil the picture. In fairness, I will say that I myself do not own Mi Note 2, I know about it from reviews and reviews, so the above reasons may be a marriage of an unsuccessful batch. Let's admit. But we are talking about the flagship! Can this be allowed? Among other things, this is a beautiful glass phone with powerful processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 821 and a decent camera. If you suddenly want to purchase this device while in a store, check it for "sore spots".

In principle, we told about all the current models, we did not mention only. Neither fish nor fowl. Doubtful MediaTek processor, lack of normal firmware. This is the case when it is worth buying a file for a smartphone, however, if you are ready to wander through various forums, then try to find this copy for less than 11,500 rubles, then the purchase will be justified.

Outcome

Xiaomi makes excellent lower and middle devices price segments, but with the flagships - the trouble, they are all with some kind of "jambs", which is unacceptable for phones of this category, I can only recommend Mi6. I recommend everyone else to buy last year's, but current models, for example, Mi5, if the price in Russia seems high, but you don't think, use the services of Aliexpress. We understand that not everyone has a sufficient amount of funds, in this case you will have to choose among Redmi, but then keep in mind that compromises are hidden somewhere, well, let, but such a smartphone will work out every penny invested in it.

It was not easy to tell about all the current models. I understand that our opinions can both converge and disagree. In addition, the article is aimed at newbies, so if you want to argue with something, you are welcome in the comments.
