This or a pop up camera are my favorite iterations so far, it hides the front facing camera which I don't use often and no camera cutout which is annoyingly in the way of my display.
This is the dream phone for me Chris🥰🥰👍. A full and beautiful notchless , punch less screen! I got the Poco F2 pro based on your reccomedation. And I am super happy with it. The UDC display implementation is next level here! You cannot see it, just awesome 👏👏. Hopefully Xiaomi implements this technology in more affordable phones next year, perhaps the Poco F4 pro😉. That will be my next phone for sure. Thank you Chris for the transparent and must watch genuine review🙂 ✌✌
@@overPowerPenguin Yes Faster than the pop up Camera for sure. But the pop up Camera although great, it comes with some risk because of all those moving parts. The UDC when perfected, it will be the best and most practical implementation.
@@mohammadzein504 I don't mind about all those moving parts. It works as new and I didn't hear anybody complain about that little motor.

More advanced looking than most midrange to flagship phones now.. MY COUSIN from australia, a lifelong iphone fanboy, saw my phone and said xiaomi?! Has that technology?? I TOLD HIM YEAH I Bought my mix 4, almost 3 years ago.. Hahaha He literally had his mouth opened for 10 seconds. He tinkered with it for a few minutes and bought a pre-loved mi mix 4 from LAZADA. hahaha.. Sometimes, you just need to be open minded and not be so prejudiced or biased.
Was waiting for this, great video of my new favorite phone, "uninterrupted display" awesome 😎 That AnTuTu score is insane, WiFi speeds amazing. With more updates this beast will just get better 👍
Thank you for waiting. It's impossible for me to be first (I don't live in China) which of courses soaks up all the views and interested leaving only the scraps for those at get it a week later. But at least I hope to give the full story, the good and also bad of this Mix 4.
Apple can't remove the notch because of advanced biometric components for face ID unless they opt for some other biometric solution such as fingerprint.
Great review. A very good option if you really want a full screen. Personally would prefer something like a mi11pro due to the price and better overall cameras. It's around €100 euro cheaper with the same periscope and ultrawide but with the GN2 main sensor. Also has the better screen. Next year should offer a bit more choice for UDCs
Thanks Chris, been waiting for an in-depth review of the Mix 4, you didn’t disappoint. Was considering purchasing this a couple of months ago, was going to wait for its release, but bought a Mi 11 Ultra instead.
Great review Chris, I bought the Poco F2 Pro based on your review, love the Snapdragon 865 for Genshin Impact and most importantly no camera notch! If I buy another phone it would be the Mix 4 cause no camera notch. Also I see you have the Mi Pad 5 Pro, looking for that review and the Mi Pad 5 (non-pro)
@@ebenezer8058 nope. Exynos chips do that more often than SD, but there are a few SD chips that are notorious when it comes to overheating(e.g. SD 810). Hoping the upcoming 898 resolves overheating issues.
Dude, FINALLY, someone that adresses if a phone has video out or not. Direct sub! Instant. I was 3 min in and an instant fan just with you addressing this fact.
i see that sneaky Mi Pad 5 in the background, take your time with the said review! Hopefully the 15 September Xiaomi global announcement has the Mi Pad 5 (if not pro)
I love this Front camera and I hope so much that this is in the Mi 12 Ultra in combination with the rear Display. This Quality is completely enough for Videocalls and if I want to make real Videos I can use the Main Camera setup. That's so nice! (And I don`t need a WQHD+ Display. FullHD+ is completely enough for a Smartphone of this size. Thanks for this Video!
This phone was so ahead of its time. I don't understand how we're almost four years out from this phones release and we're still using punch holes and notches. Can you imagine how decent selfies could look by now if manufacturers just started putting under screen cameras in all of their flagships a few years ago
Nice work, really !!! Excellent review !! About Mix 4 .... a mix of ideas and perceptions. When analyzing this phone, we must not forget what Xiaomi officially said about it ... it is not a camera phone, especially a selfie phone!. Looks good, top quality, top performance, a few innovations above the class average included in the phone. I assume Xiaomi is testing, I don't know if they do it alone or in collaboration with other partners, but this mix of components and innovations (first SND 888+, this new development of UDC, fast charging and so on) with top results and at the same time less to be praised, I get the impression that they do not know exactly in which category to include this new phone. Definitely, Chris has proven that it's not a bad phone, but if you look at Mi 11 U, S 21 U or others, you know exactly why and for what those phones are made. I repeat, a mix of ideas and perceptions, I can't define it exactly, just like his selfie camera, I can't say exactly where it is. (to end in a joking tone).
Yes it's a bit of a prototype phone. A "mix" of innovation and tech but not the top tier of everything like the cameras or the screen even. However the UDC is so far the best yet, almost can't even tell it's there.
i'm glad you said you prefer the 865 SD chip because i have the OP8T and while i'm satisfied with it i always wondered if it's a significant downgrade from the future chips. to hear you prefer it above the 888 series really made my day haha.
Great detailed video Mate. Do you recommend taking this on a vacation for taking pics and videos? Also plan on using it as a median to transfer pics and videos from my GoPro camera. Do you think its worth it?
Thanks for watching. As for cameras, it's not really that good now compared to 2023 phones. If you want good photos for vacations then a Pixel, S23 or Iphone would be better!
i really appreciate xiaomi design and fast adapted technology, camera design also looks fresh every year especially for this year, i appreciate xiaomi than iphone..
Great review ! For those who need hdmi there are usb to hdmi adapters (displayLink). Can you please confirm the apps from the play store are working normal with this Chinese ROM ? For example messaging apps like skype, teams, viber. Also does it have always on display ? If yes - what about the notifications ? Are they also shown on AOD ?

Great review as always. Is your Mi11 ultra on the enhanced 12.5 that really does improve battery life. My guess is 10% or very close. It also seems to help with keeping it a bit cooler. That though is not good news for the Mix 4 if it is already on it. Hopefully the next generation of snapdragon phones run cooler. At present if buying a china ROM which can have the eu ROM flashed the Mi11 pro at the price point offers the best value.
I have had the Xiaomi M11 ultra for a few months it's a brilliant phone. .got everything you need from a mobile 👌👌not had any problems with overheating mate
I'm not in the hype for this under display cameras...after I bought my Mi 9T Pro I had some problems with apps opening the camera, even with the app closed. I only noticed this because of the mechanical camera opening from nothing! Thanks for the excellent review!
I was back in time with the smartphones but recently I got back on track to see what's good for 2021. The under-display camera was a nice feature until I saw a punch hole vs an under-display camera. I emerge myself into a phone, the punch hole, to see if it make me feel weird and it was ok but when I saw no camera I was like "What the fuck? No selfies?" - it was a weird moment. Probably something wierd.
my dream phone 😊 i will be having this phone nxt month 😅 not the latest phone but still usable and finally will have the chance to own one 😊 currently Im using K20 and K20Pro.. i really love fullscreen phones 😂
Overheating issue on Mix 4 makes me feel concerned about the upcoming release of Xiaomi 12 flagship phone this November / December. Given that SD898 chipset is going to be faster than current SD888/SD888+, Xiaomi needs to figure out better, more improved thermal solution to cool the phone rather than chasing to be the 1st phone released with the newest chipset. As for now, keeping my Poco F2 Pro phone until Xiaomi's UDC flagship phone with better thermals comes out.
That's strange about the 888+ overheating. The 888 is also overheating and one would suspect that the 888+ would fix that. The 2020 models could be better than the 2021 with 888/888+. This puts the cooling tech in question. Oh, your face on selfie definitely looks beautified and the under-display sensor may have something to do with that.
Xiaomi phone has best cost-effective, and the technic specification are always improving. They not do advertisement but focus on product. "Huawei" phone is disgusting, they advocate patriotic to make their own country people buy their product, which is synchronously 300 dollar more expensive with a lower technic specifications, and their raw material production cost is actually lower than Xiaomi. Apple today is disgusting too, every year they publish same phone, while every apple product have a bad battery with very high fix cost, and apple is trying to sue every small company which don't have money to go through the legal process with them to keep them in a monopoly trend. We should begin to thinking about change the privacy law for better competition which bring a more fair market and lower prices. Privacy should not be something use to limit the freedom of creation and study.
If the Mix 4 had a compact 5.8 inch version without curves and would have expandable storage, a removable battery and a headphone jack, it would have been perfect...
I honestly don't understand the full background on the SD 888 "overheating". Is this an arbitrary term for the phone getting warm? Is it a term bandied about and picked up by everyone because it gets thermally hot like any piece of electronic does? Or is the phone physically overheating to the point of being unusable? If it helps, I've used a 12 Pro Max and that got hot with using the camera or gaming heavily.
Can't wait to see your mi pad 5 video. Can you please include if it has MEMC on the display like their premium phones? that would be killer in that big display. Thanks!
I wish Xiaomi would begin the Mi Max 4 project again. Would be perfect for my poor wision. My Mi Max 3 has been my daily driver since 2018. Just the right size.
4:58 Axon 30- just made out of teenage years Chris Mix 4- Mature adult Chris Fold 3- 50-60 year old Chris (Just my opinion looking at the photos LoL don't take it seriously)
wow that selfie video actually looks really good and the sun was behind u .....that looks impressive compared to other reviews where the pictures r fine with ai enhancement but the video not really
@@Techtablets Not just colour. I see more details in your beard and hair and given that the Fold 3 is only 4MP against 16MP on the Mi Mix 4 then it looks like Samsung has done a much better job.
Did you notice that the axon 30 did a better job on the selfie because it was able to rotate or arrange the words in a perfect order ? Not in a mirror like the other phones ??
Imported a Chinese Mix 3, purely because I hated bezels/notches. Battery was useless so ended up buying a Poco X3. So cheap and convenient that I could buy it locally. Then Xiaomi release the Mix 4 a few weeks later 💀 should have held out.
So you need to install global version or can it be used easily with the Chinese version? My phone finally arrives on Monday and I have a headache how to move 256GB of my files from the mate 30 pro
It's the Chinese ROM, I just installed Google Play store from an APK file and gave it permissions and it works fine. Takes about 10 minutes to remove the Chinese apps and block notifications from a few you cannot remove. And all set. But I see there is a Xiaomi EU ROM out now.

Apple today is disgusting too, every year they publish same phone, while every apple product have a bad battery with very high fix cost, and apple is trying to sue every small company which don't have money to go through the legal process with them to keep them in a monopoly trend.
We should begin to thinking about change the privacy law for better competition which bring a more fair market and lower prices. Privacy should not be something use to limit the freedom of creation and study.
If the Mix 4 had a compact 5.8 inch version without curves and would have expandable storage, a removable battery and a headphone jack, it would have been perfect...
Chris, have a look at the IQOO 8/8 Pro. Will you be getting those? Would be cool to see your review.
No plans to buy them and VIVO just ignores me, sad.
I honestly don't understand the full background on the SD 888 "overheating". Is this an arbitrary term for the phone getting warm? Is it a term bandied about and picked up by everyone because it gets thermally hot like any piece of electronic does? Or is the phone physically overheating to the point of being unusable? If it helps, I've used a 12 Pro Max and that got hot with using the camera or gaming heavily.
As explains physically overheating to the point it will shutdown apps, kill wifi and others thing to help get the phone temps down.
Can't wait to see your mi pad 5 video. Can you please include if it has MEMC on the display like their premium phones? that would be killer in that big display. Thanks!
Now that you mentioned screen protector. Will the screen protector be a cutout or just plain flat glass?
It's plastic with a hole for the UDC.
Nice review , will you test Xiaomi pad 5 pro? And give some options to buy in europe
Working on it!
I want to buy this. good review mate. thanks
as usual....great review.
thank you
Glad you enjoyed it
I wish Xiaomi would begin the Mi Max 4 project again. Would be perfect for my poor wision. My Mi Max 3 has been my daily driver since 2018. Just the right size.
Anyway, flood tubes 1, 2 and 3.
Snapdragon really messed up in the last two years.
865 external modem with high battery drain on 5G, now this hottie.
Yes I agree they have messed up it's similar too hot in all the SD888 phones I've tested. My fav is the 870 (I don't use 5G)
@@Techtablets Maybe someone will use the camera bump as a heatsink :)
Tsmc 865/870 vs samsung 888 too... maybe they go back to tsmc for future models, as they still currently have the top fab tech...
awesome front camera 🤯
4:58
Axon 30- just made out of teenage years Chris
Mix 4- Mature adult Chris
Fold 3- 50-60 year old Chris
(Just my opinion looking at the photos LoL don't take it seriously)
Haha okay!
Very great review, I hope you can review the IQOO 8 pro. 👍
I will try! But no plans to buy it I hope VIVO would send me some review unit phones but nothing... No contact from the mat all.
Why all flagships have to be curved display?🙄
wow that selfie video actually looks really good and the sun was behind u .....that looks impressive compared to other reviews where the pictures r fine with ai enhancement but the video not really
Yes the video shows it's a UDC at least with photos it's tweaked so it doesn't look like a UDC so much.
Do you test the wifi speeds with a wifi 6 router?
yes of course otherwise those speeds would not be possible on Wifi 5 spec.
Still waiting for the mipad 5 review from you Chris
WIP it's on my table here...
As awesome as always
Can you do video calling review of this camera? Like lights behind you and ideal situation? I wonder how the under display camera perform on this
What happened to the Xiaomi laptop you recently ordered.??
I wish I knew. It has disappeared, missing or stolen. I don't think it will show up.
Which screen has more brightness, this or the oppo find x5 pro?
Very Good Review as Always Thank you ❤
My pleasure!
does it support macro shooting as a feature in camera
Not into this underdisplay camera but it looks a little bit better on the Fold 3 to my surprise.
Colors yes, but when you see the original the resolution is lacking and this is why the Mix 4 got the win.
@@Techtablets Not just colour. I see more details in your beard and hair and given that the Fold 3 is only 4MP against 16MP on the Mi Mix 4 then it looks like Samsung has done a much better job.
Just received Hyper OS and Android 14. Didn't think I was only to get either after 4-5 months of no updates.
How would it give more battery life if it has a faster processor + smaller battery?
Does the screen have adaptive refresh rate?
Imagine if this phone had a headphone jack and sd card support - I'd buy it then
stunning selfie detail
everyone was waiting for this
Haha I hope!
Did you notice that the axon 30 did a better job on the selfie because it was able to rotate or arrange the words in a perfect order ? Not in a mirror like the other phones ??
Miui 12.5 enhanced edition seems promising
Hopefully it live up to expectations
Can you tell the difference between SD 888 and 888+ in terms of overall temperature during daily usage? Thanks
Absolutely not. Even SD870 vs SD888 I can see the difference unless I run benchmarks
Even hotter than the already hot 888. Crazy!
Yes sadly, the 810 series is back from Qualcomm
perfect phone at the moment
Your voice is so good dude. Have u tried to sing someday ?
No don't sing, DON'T
Imported a Chinese Mix 3, purely because I hated bezels/notches. Battery was useless so ended up buying a Poco X3. So cheap and convenient that I could buy it locally.
Then Xiaomi release the Mix 4 a few weeks later 💀 should have held out.
Oh bad timing
the first global xiaomi phone to drop the mi sub-branding.
Yes seems now all the flagships will be dropping it
Great Unboxing and review Mi Mix unit and Yes I love the accent as well watching from Philippines👌❤️🇵🇭 Done I'm your SUBSCRIBER NOW👌
Thank you 🤗
So you need to install global version or can it be used easily with the Chinese version? My phone finally arrives on Monday and I have a headache how to move 256GB of my files from the mate 30 pro
It's the Chinese ROM, I just installed Google Play store from an APK file and gave it permissions and it works fine. Takes about 10 minutes to remove the Chinese apps and block notifications from a few you cannot remove. And all set. But I see there is a Xiaomi EU ROM out now.
