I have been waiting for this review & it's finally here...thank you👏👏👏

loved the hardware but the ammount of ads at 4:27 is just brutal

I miss the times when the Mix line was more experimental, like when they released the sliding Mi Mix 3 or the all around screen Mi Mix Alpha, this just catches up to the Flip crowd.

With all due respect, I think you need to pull this video down and change the intro. Those flashing images could very easily cause an epilepsy attack in someone, I don't suffer from it and it hurt me to watch it. Either put a warning up or change it entirely.

Hardware wise this is the best flip phone this year, although the overheating problem should be solved, everything else is almost as if this is a full fledged flagship, pretty darn impressive for a first generation product!

OOOHHH This is a nice design. So glad foldable tech is getting more affordable. Tanks for the video.Love your content.

[Unanmouz]

A lot of people are complaining about the intro and I just find it cool. lol

Main camera photos seem overexposed which in my book is not a good sign together with the, usual for xiaomi devices, overheating. On the other hand telephoto camera exposure seems to the point. I am also wondering how many bugs in this version of hyperOS are ruining the users experience and how many folds will take to damage the hinge mechanism or the screen!
I used xiaomi phones for years but at the end the annoyances of the same unresolved bugs from phone to the next phone, from one miui version to the other and the photo processing which was a complete trash, made me throw the towel and move on to another maker.

These are some very professional analysis and review, nice job done.

samsung just unveiled their new galaxy fold 6 & flip 6.. with companies like xiaomi & oppo making their foldables good, samsung better be working on something as good because their incremental upgrades ain’t cutting it anymore.

[baalbadut]

unrelated, but i've been watching GSMArena content for years but AYE someone hit the gym! lol

[tj_enju]

my first thought is price... internt says 760 euros which to me means 1000USD

[polaris]

You're an EU based company that does reviews on CN units and you say how HyperOS is "the same interface you find on any recent Xiaomi phone" ( 4:25 ) Which couldn't be further from reality and that's why you should review Global/EU units with their adjacent software, my Xiaomi on Global HyOS has maybe 60% of features and interface UI compared to the Chinese version of software, you should be calling out Xiaomi on this not just glossing over the software part, i don't daily drive this phone because of how incomplete global HyOS is...

[deejayscailezee]

Amazing device . ❤
Hopefully i can get it

[mytechcave]

woow it looks awesome. The flip phones are in competition mode and its uphrading quite faster Will they perfect the middle hinge?

[zDToddy]

The only thing this has over the razr are the cameras

[stanimirnikolov]

The scratch might be the material that was sanded down by the phone's finish instead

[DRIVER-SEBVET]

Based on this review this phone is better than the 14 series Inc the
And you gave praise to the cameras without any negatives, that's a 1st ....
And besides the throttling issue this phone seems fantastic....

[andyH_England]

Not sure it is getting a global release, but if it does, probably the best flip phone out there.

[emissarygw]

Looks pretty nice, but I just got a razr the other day. Maybe in a few years I'll give this a try, really like the 'normal' aspect ratio and maybe by then they'll have ingress protection.
