    (Edit: Here I am 2 months later, and I finally purchased this phone. It is a durable, solid, top quality phone that rivals, and even beats the other severely overpriced flagships. It is the best value phone I have ever seen, or owned, and I'm not even exaggerating.)
    Remember, Linus, this is a flagship phone that sells for HALF the price of other flagships that UA-camrs like you regularly worship. Cost still matters in this world. You used to be the guy who filmed videos in his kitchen and always appreciated good value. Now that you have all the tech in the world at your literal disposal... Please don't be that guy. The guy who starts getting eaten by his unlimited access to most products and technology, eventually becoming dismissive and sarcastic towards "lesser" brands. Frankly, you are starting to become that guy. That Xiaomi Mi 10 Ultra? Most POWERFUL phone in the world with the BEST camera system in the world, for HALF the price of a Samsung - and you dismissed it like it was an effing joke. Can you imagine being an underdog company, creating the most powerful, and feature rich phone ever made, and selling it for HALF the price of other brands, only to be dismissed like that - by THE tech UA-camr that everyone follows and loves. That's absolutely horrible.
    Now, this? We get it, you love Samsung. You love Pixels. But that's just your preference. All phones have bugs. A Samsung or a Pixel has a few bugs and it's all good. A Xiaomi has a few bugs and it's suddenly a huge negative. Really?
    Xiaomi literally, objectively makes the best phones in the world in terms of price to performance, and it has always connected with its fans on a deeper level than other "capitalist wh*re" brands with $1,400 flagships. Like I said - don't be that guy.

      having a 108mp camera doesn't mean good picture quality. in fact its the opposite for most of the time. most of the hate xiaomi gets is because of their MIUI ,their ads and their extremely slower updates. my poco f1 still haven't got the android 11 update and so does many other newer models. xiaomi intentionally crippled the image quality of poco f1 in their native camera app so that it won't sabotage their flagship llineups. now i use google camera app to get decent images.
      i agree! xiaomi makes some excellent and impressive hardware. my poco f1 is built like a tank that i've been using it without any case. but their software is made both intentionally and non intentionally mediocre. if i can spend a 700 to 900usd on a phone then i would gladly buy any branded flagships than a xiaomi or an huawei smartphone.

    8:38 straight up untrue. The Xiaomi community is so incredibly active and there's numerous custom ROMS to choose from.
    Linus I love you and all but you really came off as quite ignorant in this video. Some of the stuff you said was even straight up false on multiple occasions. Please, either do your research or avoid reviewing phones which you clearly deem "unworthy" the moment you hear their name. It only serves to increase the unjustified distrust the US market has for new devices, which is really hurting US consumers. From your reviews of Xiaomis or Oppos it is clear that besides reading out a spec sheet, if it ain't Pixel, Apple or Samsung, they basically don't exist in your world, other than for a quick side review as a bone to throw to your foreign audience.
    Between me and my family I've owned 5 Xiaomis all below 250$, except for my new Poco. My dad is a sales exec at an Al refinery (an extremely punishing environment) and he talks ALL day on his phone. His 4 year old Redmi 3 Pro is still running strong after thousands of hours of phone calls and literally 5 cases and 4 screen protectors broken through years of abuse. He paid it 150$ and used it for 4 years. A 1000$ iphone would've cracked at the first drop and the battery would've lasted him half a day as new.
    My new Poco F2 Pro has a SD865, an uninterrupted AMOLED screen, an enormous battery, 30W charging in the box, full glass construction, 5G, 3 good cameras and I pad it 370€. Quite honestly, I couldn't care less if I found a bug or God forbid one small banner ad while I'm downloading an app (which I already disabled).
    There is value in things that are not perfect or top-of-the-line, not that Pixel, Apple or Samsung make anything like perfect phones anyways.
    Please try to be less dismissive of products like these in the future and be more accurate when talking about them (the cover is anti bacterial, the fast charger in the box is actually quite good value, you can actually change all the button shortcuts in MIUI 12, the Xiaomi community is huge and flourishing, there's all the cases you could ask for online, ads are an insignificant issue outside of Chinese roms and can be curbed in the settings, the IR blaster is an extra with a great app and plenty of uses, yes it has some bugs but non-flagship Xiaomi/Redmi phones are incredible value etc.) since they really are a great option which the US won't get because of its lobbied locked phone market, apologised by consumers' irrational dismissiveness prompted by inaccurate reviews like this one.
    Sincerely,
    A great fan. XOXO
    Ps. Fully aware that this isn't an LTT video but, given what we've gotten in the past, I don't expect there to be a full review of this on LTT, let alone one that says anything different than the usual.

Also usually Xiaomi lacks wireless charging which I use and no IP67 or IP68 water proof. I don't want to make it bad, they are really affordable for a lot of people and do their job generally.

Now there are universal qr code available on shops which are readable by any app you have and pay from it. No compatibility fuss to look for. No single brand gets to control the terms. Not only consumer but also the shop owner gets the benefit as the commission rates are super cheap for them.

    Thank you all for the likes and friendly comments! I know Chinese tech companies have histories of rip-off innovations and poor quality control, and even the rumors of setting backdoors for the CCP government (isn't which also applied to big US companies?), so it's common for people to hold grudge or suspects when reviewing them. I just hope judgments can be made based on solid evidence instead of speculations, facts instead of stereotypes, especially this is supposed to be a tech video. As matter of fact, MIUI 12 currently is ahead in protecting user's privacy than the stock Android for providing a feature called "virtual ID" that can prevent companies and apps from tracking user's behaviors and identities.
