    My Mi a1 phone just arrived yesterday and it has been great so far. The only complain I have is the front facing camera. Do you think software upgrades can fix this? The primary camera is pretty decent.

      Absolute 13 Try using different camera apps for selfies. I use retrica and in good lighting it produces some good selfies. The front camera should have been atleast 8 MP

    • @LizaJahau
      @LizaJahau Před 6 lety

      Athul Paul I know right. The front facing camera is the only part that pulls it down from being a premium phone...for the budget. Thank you I'll download the app and try it out.

      Try rooting your phone and install ported google camera. Most amazing results comparable to top tiers phone.

    Als deutscher ein Video eines deutschen schauen, der Englisch spricht. Sehr lustig!
    Aber im Ernst: tolle Kamerafahrten, klasse Überblick und tolles Review.
    Evtl. hätte man noch die verfügbaren Funk-Bänder erwähnen können und ob sie auch alle in anderen Teilen der Welt verfügbar sind, bzw. z.B. in Deutschland verfügbare vom Gerät unterstützt werden.
    Weiter so und viele Grüße!
