Pros and Cons

Xiaomi Mix 4

Strengths

Impressive Under Display Camera: The Xiaomi Mix 4 boasts the best under-display camera (UDC) technology currently available, surpassing even the Axon 30 Fold 3 and the first-generation Axon 20.
Fast Charging: The phone supports incredibly fast charging at 120 watts, taking around 22-25 minutes to fully charge the battery.
Great Ceramic Build: The Mix 4 has a fantastic ceramic build, with a solid construction that feels premium in hand. It's just a bit on the heavier side, weighing over 220 grams.
Fast Wireless Charging: Despite not having the wireless charger on hand, the phone's wireless charging speed is around 30 minutes.

Weaknesses

Outdated Camera Sensor: The Mix 4's camera choice of a 108-megapixel HMX sensor from Samsung feels like a missed opportunity, especially considering it's slightly dated for late 2021. A GN2 camera would have been a more desirable upgrade.
Thermal Issues with Snapdragon 8+ Plus: Unfortunately, the phone's performance is hampered by thermal issues associated with the Snapdragon 8+ Plus chipset. This can lead to overheating and even booting out of demanding games or apps.

realme narzo 50 Pro 5G

Strengths

The phone looks premium with a lightweight design, sleek edges, and a curved back that makes it easy to hold.
The AMOLED screen is a great feature with a 90Hz refresh rate, Corning Gorilla Glass 5 protection, and a peak brightness of 1000 nits.
The mid-range processor handles day-to-day tasks smoothly, including gaming, and the battery life is excellent, lasting a full day with normal usage.
The camera setup is impressive, with good dynamic range, accurate colors, and plenty of details in images captured by the primary sensor.

Weaknesses

The phone has too many pre-installed apps that cannot be uninstalled, making for a disappointing experience and cluttering up the home screen.
The audio quality is not mentioned as being anything special, aside from it being loud and clear when using the dual stereo speakers with Dolby Atmos.
The rear panel is made of plastic and has a Kevlar texture that may be prone to fingerprint smudges.
The phone's performance would have been better if there were less third-party applications or if users were given the option to uninstall them all.

Xiaomi Mix 4

The Xiaomi Mi 11 is a phone that has left me with mixed feelings. On the one hand, it boasts some impressive specs, including a 108MP Samsung HMX sensor and a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8+ Plus chip. The phone's ceramic build and fast charging capabilities (120W) are also notable features. However, my experience with the camera was underwhelming. While the 108MP sensor is capable of producing high-quality images, it feels like an outdated choice in today's market. I would have preferred a GN2 sensor, which is used in the Mi 11 Ultra. The camera's performance is further compromised by its tendency to switch between digital and optical zoom modes. The Snapdragon 8+ Plus chip is another area of concern. While it delivers excellent performance, it also suffers from overheating issues when subjected to demanding tasks like gaming or benchmarking. This was evident in my experience with the Antutu benchmark test, which crashed due to excessive heat. Despite these drawbacks, the Mi 11 still has some redeeming qualities. The phone's ceramic build is solid and premium-feeling, and the fast charging capabilities are a welcome feature. However, the camera and thermal issues make it difficult for me to wholeheartedly recommend this phone. Overall, the Xiaomi Mi 11 is a phone with potential that falls short due to its mixed performance. While it may appeal to those seeking a fast-charging experience, I would caution gamers and photographers to look elsewhere.
