Great value for ~100 dollars
Bought this as a backup/travel device, been using it for a week before writing a review. Overall useful as a daily phone for most tasks outside maybe pubg or COD.Performance:This is the 2GB version and it's responsive enough to handle most web browsing in chrome or firefox mobile, hangouts video chats, Discord, and basic day to day office tasks you'd need for work. Everything feels quite responsive outside a few minor things I believe are bugs in the recent MIUI 11 update on the phone I am sure will be worked out, enabling wif/blutooth is a tad slow but works. If you aren't going to push this phone to gaming you should be fine for most all tasks feeling responsive. CPU is a bit weaker as this phone is geared at battery life over performance.Battery:With office tasks, ~2-3 hours of youtube 480p, discord, and some web browsing. I was down to about 20% after 3.5 days from 100%. This was with me enabling battery saver from 20:00-7:00 and using android dark mode, mileage may vary depending. Overall this is a perfect phone for anyone planning to be out all day and cares more about their phone lasting the full day(or two) than being able to game on the go.Features:Lacks NFC, Fingerprint, and some other things but overall it's not a deal breaker. Fast charging is nice, headphone jack, FM radio, IR blaster are as well; but this phone ships with a 10w charger for full Q.C. you can, and should, get an 18w charger as the battery will need it to go from 20%->100% in a reasonable time. Screen is not 2k but looks good enough even with full brightness not to be bad, it does tend to wash out a bit in full color but it's nothing offensive. Dual sim + SD card is really good for travel.Camera:This won't win any awards but for most pictures it looks and acts fine, plenty of reviews for the full images out there though I will say the latest update did fix a few things with quality. I hear you can also side load the gcam in but I haven't tried it yet. The camera is good enough to get the job done, the AI mode can help a few minor touches as well. If you're just going to share daytime pictures with people via social media, this camera will get the job done with ease but it's no pixel/hawuei camera.Overall good phone for travel or a phone for someone non-power user. Going to be using this on a few of my trips so that I don't need to worry so much on a power bank wherever I go.Things to keep in mindnot all 4g bands supported in USAdisable ads in MIUI via turning off "suggestions"get an 18W wall charger for best charge timesthis does not come with any case, while it is sturdy would suggest a case

Extraordinary value
Bought this after 1ft drop cracked my Samsung Galaxy S9+ and although it lacks some features I'll miss, finger print reader, NFC, and wireless charging, this phone has enough going for it that at less than 1/5 the price what it does have and the quality puts it at top of the value proposition for cell phones.Face unlock is quick enough that I only slightly miss the finger print reader.5000mAh battery helps overcome the convenience of wireless charging.I'll miss the NFC as backup to my credit cards but only a lower tier feature for me.32GB storage is usable, the expandable SD storage makes tolerable, even though moving apps to SD doesn't appear possible.Biggest drawback I've found at this point that I've had some issues with weak WiFi signal pickup, no issue at home but have struggled to get strong signal at work.Still working through some of the quirks of the Xiaomi interface but expect overtime i'll become more familiar with it, fairly intuitive just different.I haven't spent much time with the camera and evaluating image quality so cannot comment there but with everything else going for it it frankly doesn't matter to me.Only been using for 24 hours so longer term use may expose some flaws but at this point no question at $110 I would buy again and recommend.

good quality and cost phone
I was motivated to buy this equipment, because its price is really striking, its battery has a useful life that meets my daily demands, it has the ability to run applications that other smart phones with the same cost do not.

Great value! Awesome battery life!
This is a great phone! I have owned iPhones in the past and was concerned I would think this phone just couldn't compete. I was wrong this phone is amazing! Awesome value and spectacular battery life!

Excelente equipo en relación a calidad/precio
En comparación con el precio,es lo mejor del mercado. Estoy muy complacido. La pantalla muy amplia y me gusta el brillo máximo que es algo de lo que algunos se quejaban. Llenó mis expectativas una vez lo tenía en mano. Se ve mucho mejor en físico y se siente genial. Buena autonomía, excelente!

The unit i received doesnt have the specs it says here.
Overall is a great smartphone, probably the best on his price range. My problem is that they straight up lied in the specifications. In all the spec sheets and the initial reviews they stated the camera being a 12mpx 1/2.55" f1.8 imx363 sensor. Which is actually great used in many other midrage or even high end smartphones, the reviews showed pretty good inage quality and even decent low light performance. But thats not what i got on my unit as you can see on the images attached. my unit came with a much worse 13mpx f2.2 1/3" image sensor. And i have to say photos are terrible, maybe is what you could expect for the price but this is not what they put on the specs so i feel scammed. Dont get me wrong everything else is really good. Battery, screen even performance altough i recommend the 3gb version because 2gb makes a big bottleneck. But definitely dont buy it because of the camera. Indoors the pictures are straight garbage. If you tought the camera was good from the reviews online, let me tell you its not.
