Love the new English channel! Keep up the excellent work! I have to say the camera is definitely improved (low light is impressively better than iPhone), but the samsung fabbed chips are consistently terrible. They have to throttle it by default to keep if from burning you. lol. Hopefully they release a TSMC version at some point. Snapdragon 870 is still king of efficiency on the Qualcomm side and what a surprise it's a TSMC chip. Speakers were a pleasant surprise. Very good detail and volume. The equalizer they applied is working wonders.

I don’t believe big changes can be made with a Leica logo… That’s all Chinese manufacturers do, .Vivo with Zeiss Huawei with Leica, and even Oneplus with Hasselblad, I think none of them were hugely improved.

@@kyy7123 Huawei succeeded in terms of camera department last years because of their cooperation with leica. Xiaomi use premium hardware camera in their flagship phones in terms of sensors or lenses which are so crucial in photography but they still have a lack of software and bad optimization. Vivo with x70 pro+ improved a lot and to me this phone in photography video stabilization is one of the best flagships i ever seen last year especially cooperation with zeiss helped them a lot. From the whole "BBK" only vivo with their flagship phone was neck to neck with biggest leaderships companies in the world the rest oppo and one+ are a head away from competition of premium smartphones camera.

I'm absolutely interested in this phone. I'm in the states though so it's probably a no go. The only high end Chinese manufacturer option we have here seems to be OnePlus, which kinda sucks. On another note, seems like Xiaomi knew the 8 Gen 1 was a furnace and decided to heavily throttle it. The new Motorola phone took a different approach and let it run at steady clock speeds, but the outside of the phone got to 140° fahrenheit, which is absolutely insane. The new Dimensity chip looks sick, but again, I'm in the states lol, probably won't have the option for one of those.

[@Zeallr]

I also wating for Dimensity 9000 and you can buy from china by mail forwarding service

[@JollyOldCanuck]

@@Zeallr Only import from Hong Kong, that way you’re more likely to get the international version of the phone rather than the Chinese version.

[@RandomPerson-tz7wk]

at this point, high end chip is no longer a deciding factor considering the improvement is only a single digit (1%-9%) improvement from last generation. anything after snapdragon 865/870 above have heating issue that brand have to throttle performance for reasonable temperature which put them similar to old flagship chip if you use it for demanding workload or gaming.

In good light, you can hardly tell the difference, but at night, the more information you have to work with, the better the result. Actually looks like the Mi 12 Pro has a stitch more dynamic range than the Mate 40 Pro.

[@tasarasforever]

I really want to know your camera Gear! Excellent quality!

[@chini2W0]

I have no issues with that. It's not really recommended to play Genshin Impact on mobile unless the phone has a built in cooler inside and cpu thermal paste is somehow liquid metal. Yeah there are gaming phones with attachable coolers, and even Nubia with built in cooler, but it still won't cut it in terms of playing Genshin. For now, my opinion is that Genshin Impact is still meant to be played on PC, no matter how high end your device is,. As long as thermals are within the safe range without compromising performance, that's the time games like Genshin or higher can be really enjoyed on a mobile device. As long as you play high intensive games like Genshin, your mobile will always be at risk at battery degredation, and worst, motherboard damage in the long run.

[@sleepy1171]

Agree. If I was to play Genshin I'd play it on PC. Phones will get there one day. Maybe RoG / Nubia / Black Shark might pull something out of their sleeves for this generation.
