    Hi all, to answer everyone who's asking about Google Play Services, I installed the Google Play Store in less than one minute.
    Step 1: Go into the Xiaomi GetApps (pre-installed App Store)
    Step 2: Search "Google Play Store"
    Step 3: Click "Update"
    Voila! Google Play Store is now installed on your Mi 11. Super simple. Hope that helps!

    The Mi 11 charger is a 55W and charges from 0 to 100 in 45mins. All phones overheat if you play games for a while. But if you are using youtube. Facebook etc it's perfectly fine. The display is awesome super smooth. Camera is amazing with great features. Overall a great phone. I got this instead of the S21

    I bought this phone specifically to play Genshin Impact and Honkai Impact 3rd. It is waaaaaaay better than my Exynos 2100 Samsung Galaxy S21 Ultra. It does get hot, but so did the Samsung phone. I did find a way to "throttle" the performance so that the phone doesn't heat up as much. With game booster there's an option that says "Performance Optimization" that will throttle down the performance slightly and the phone won't overheat. At least for me that worked like a charm and I can now play for more than 2 hours without issues :D I love this phone and I'm glad I ditched the Exynos Galaxy S21 Ultra for this SD888 phone :D Great review I did like it a lot! I hope you get more views and subs! :D

    Can't decide between this or the S21/+ (Exynos 2100). I've used a number of different android phones but fell in love with Samsung since using the s9+ and note 10+. I've gotten so used to the ui and the ecosystem, but I'm actually finding it hard to choose between being safe with Samsung or trying out Xiaomi for the next few years, it's interesting and appealing but I've heard how bad their updates are and security might be an issue, also xiaomi being on the Blacklist may turn bad with regards to Google soon.

  • @karloivanne
    @karloivanne Před 3 lety +1

    Does the setting on refresh rate on the Mi 11 gives you the option to stay at 120? Since for what I remember it has like "adoptive" refresh rate saying that it'll be depending on the app or things like watching videos, scrolling, playing games. And for Samsung I can't remember them having like the "adoptive" thing from Xiaomi, so maybe that's explains why the Samsung is a bit smoother since when you put it on 120 then it stays at 120 all the time. 🤔
    Not really sure if that's make sense haha. I hope it did.
