seriously water resistance is an issue with this phone? every reviewer out there praises the op6t and that phone doesnt have water resistance and the mix 3 which is in the same price range as the op6t gets slack for it. There is nothing wrong with the 6t, it's a great phone. but, if that phone is great value without water resistance, then how is this not?

'Camera on par with the pixel 3.' I'm glad you said it because I think other reviewers are afraid to say it. The camera's are shockingly good. Totally blown away.

Slider phone >>> Holes in screens/notches

[Handlegamer]

You forgot to mention that it comes with a wireless charger IN THE BOX!

For those asking about the protective case, There are specific cases designed for the Mi Mix 3 and the slide works correctly 👍

Why I should care about water resistant? I live in dubai and its rain twice per year 😂👻

I just got my Oneplus 6t but I really wanted this phone, I don't regret my choice though, I think the waterdrop notch looks good and the 9 hour screen on time was great as well as it's software.

I want it very badly, reminds me of my old Nokia n72.

Just put the case your problem (wiggle) is solved.

The slider is cool and all, but actually i don't need a front camera, if there's a mirror finish or an extra display on the back it's even better because the camera is more powerful

[bennybouken]

Slider should be the trend not a hole in the phone

3:53 yes every1 like chrome and all google incons inside white square . very nice skins . same with huawei .

[philliptran]

How would a case work? Does it just cover the back and not come all the way to the screen?

[leledumbo]

The wiggle should be safe on Mix 3, remember it uses magnets instead of hardwired roller. The first one is less likely to break, as it just clips to each other.

[attentionaddicts]

How are the speakers?

Speakers are really important, why do reviewers always ignore them?

[casualtechreviewer]

It doesn't have a notch. That's refreshing...

Hi ! My sister purchased on qwy.io this Mi Mix 3. She received it in 7 days. When I checked it, I realized, that it's amazing smartphone!

[dhedhekuncoro]

I have a toddler at home so how is the protective case going to work with this type of phone?

[CEKROM]

In my opinion this phone is the real flagship Killer =D

Hey man. If you're in KC, who's your Mobile provider. I'd love to try out the Magic 2 or MiMix3 but i'm never sure if they'll work on networks here. I've got Tmobile.
