      @joshpobje6938 Před 4 lety +2

      @DerpyDoge retina screens aren't that good, and a 720p super amoled isn't nearly as good as a 1080p oled panel in normal usage. Maybe with quite a bit of anti aliasing it is, but most brands don't offer that.

    • @joshpobje6938
      @joshpobje6938 Před 4 lety +1

      @DerpyDoge super retina is only supported on oled devices, it's literally impossible to not get true blacks on an oled screen. Amoled and oled look incredibly similar, the main difference is in regards to reliability. And the xr screen looks decent due to software, the anti aliasing and colour grading applied. "Retina displays" are the same as normal displays, but they're modified through software.

      Is it 720p or like the XR where it’s not full 1080 but close to it?

      720p with amoled display is battery saving than 1080p with LCD.. plus that good colour reproduction on amoled.. I rather trade that

      jonah ramos not really, the Mi A3 is closer to 720p. To be more accurate, because it’s a 19.5:9 aspect ratio screen the resolution is 720x1560 while the XR is 828x1792.

      @@someoneyouneverknow7529 I thought that, too, but someone made a comparison between CC9e with 720p versus CC9 with 1080p and the difference was only about 20 minutes more battery time for the CC9e, which is really not that great after several hours.

      You can switch between a flagship and a mid range, especially if it is a good phone.

    If you can look past the display, it's a great fucking phone. I've been using this (typing on it right now) for nearly a year and it's pretty darn flawless. For those who are experiencing problems with the fingerprint sensor, I suggest you record multiple versions of the same thumb/finger when setting the fingerprint password. I don't look for professional photography, so the portrait mode and AI camera work pretty amazing for me. You can play moderately heavy games for upto an hour, but if you're a heavy gamer I'd suggest you to look into other options. Overall, for the price, pretty amazing phone, solid functionality and the plain ol' Android is pretty refreshing from the MIUI and other custom UI options. 8.5/10
