godspeed:


I can now see why you said what u said. You didn't know the genesis of the argument. It is similar to what happened just now.

Last week argument came about because I suggested the mi 9 se to somebody who said his budget is only limited to a 100k but would like to buy the k20. Before u know it, k20 fans jumped on me for dare saying that. They tot the best he should have done was to save up and buy the k20.

Similar thing happened this morning, somebody posted a YouTube video of a review of the k20, a review I wil call excellent for the k20, but just because he mentioned a single flaw he noticed on the device... you yourself can read the comments that followed. Is that necessary?

Actually, I knew the genesis of last week argument. Although, you didn't go wrong at all by suggesting the 9SE to the guy that asked because his budget was only 100k.

The argument could have been avoided though.

What caught my interest in the argument sef was that he was the first one Ive seen here using that model of the mi 9, I was really looking forward to learning from his experience with the device but .....

I already mentioned it to someone, the person uses an iPhone without the jack and is comfy with it.
Simple opportunity to sell/market that model, irrespective of the arguments those who'll fall in love with it would surely do to

Any new update for Gcam on Redmi 7 cause this current one keep frustrating me by force closing every time i try to take a picture

Saw a link on YouTube..

https://drive.google.com/uc?id=1k6wVg8L8AyzjhMIj7c9FrrGIu7EEVra3&export=download

It's july 26 ..like updated gcam for mi max 3 Android pie..

Currently downloading.. over hundred mb..

Would see how it's going to pan out

I told you it's not straight forward. You first have to unlock your bootloader (if it is not already), install a custom recovery, enable camera2api before you can install Gcam

Another one..
Most people in the thread that use the phone say he prolly got a defective one.

omotolsy:
okay I use one and i wont slap him for the review. You know why? He is right. Sometimes the front camera takes amazing pictures and sometimes it doesnt particularly when light enters the camera. However, the front cameras are just seriously awesome. Fingerprint is very responsive but not 100% accurate.

Lets not complain about anything, xiaomi gave us a great deal. I am not complaining.

For the amount this is a classic.

The explanation from omotolsy seems plausible.
MKBHD only commented on what he saw with his two korokoro eyes.
Others too stated what they have seen with their own eyes.
In the end, everybody is correct in one way or another.

It may just be a software glitch that causes it to produce horrible pictures in some situations.
That can be corrected in a firmware update.

A swear am beginning to dislike this thread.. so many die hard fan boys here.. to say simple truth is hard. And they would be defending what's obvious. If anyone said anything bad about Xiaomi, you flare up with unreasonable argument..

No device is perfect..

Device you use depends on what you want in the device.. and there would always be someone that will bash and berrate your device..

That doesn't mean a squat.. who cares..

No Offence Bro But You Know Very Little About Phones.... AnyBody That Objects To A Review Is Termed A Fan Boy By You. That's How You Said Samsung Should Not Be Compared To Xiaomi Because It's "Samsung". Someone Here Correctly Stated That Xiaomi Started The Bezelless Trend You Called Him A Fan Boy. Someone Correctly Said Xiaomi Displaced Samsung As Top Brand In India You Came As Usual With Your Fan Boy Statement. A Nice Clean Extra Tab On Your Mi Browser cheesy With A Google Page Loaded Would Do Well When Next You Want To Call Someone A Fan Boy Out Of Ignorance.

The People On This Thread Aren't Only Xiaomi Users, We have Oneplus, Lenovo, Pixel, Samsung And Umidigi Users Visiting The Thread. I'm Not A Xiaomi User. I Saw How Someone Stated Unequivocally That He Isn't A Xiaomi User When You Came With Your Usual Fan Boy Statement. The Mi 9 Se Crusader Here Is A Samsung User Who Said His A50 Beats The Mi 9 Se Hands Down.

Even So Xiaomi Users Criticise Xiaomi A Lot. I Remember When GP Tech And Fibonacci Used To Laugh At Xiaomi's Infinite Snapdragon 625 Chips. Even When Mi A3 Was Released People Here Called It A Downgrade. The Mi 9 Se Vs Mi 9t/K20 Is It Not A Xiaomi Matter? What Then Makes You Think We Flare At Any Review Condemning Xiaomi?

To The K20 Pro's Matter MKBHD Said The Front Cam Is The Worst He's Seen Since He Started Reviewing Phones. People Using The Phone Here Said He Might Have Gotten A Faulty One Since They Have It And it Takes Better Pictures From The One He Posted. A Trip To The Comment Section Would Show Others Saying The Exact Thing We're Saying. Even Ada Mix Showed Tweets Of People Talking About The Review But No We Are Fanboys To You.

With All Due Respect If You're Angry Or Tired Of The Thread You Can Freely Leave. I Mean, Over 2 Million People Have Viewed This Thread. One Person Might Not Cause The Mods To Take It Down.

Any Xiaomi mi 9 user on here.
I have a choice to pick between mi 9 and k20 pro, which one is okay for someone who doesn't play game a lot.
I think you should go for the mi9t has it's a balance between the two.
