    All I really want from phone developers is to focus on using laser scanning and a camera system for 3D scanning, photogammetry so software can follow for architecture and games and diy projects etc. That would be an extremely exciting innovation to be able to tell distance and accurately 3d scan items. Imagine the libraries of 3d objects you could have if everyone could do this easily. Imagine your phine being the ultimate swiss army knife for diy construction projects and home improvement.

    1 note and 1 question.
    Firts Congrats.
    Note: It seems that the EEU version of the Miui Rom, comes with the Google dialer and messages apps and you can not use the Miui dialer and messaging app, this is quite annoying and terrible because Google dialer is quite bad, you can not make a shortcut of a contact on homescreen, you can but it does not make the call straightforward. Can you confirm the the room you have if it is global and if it does have google or miui (dialer contacts and messaging apps).
    Question: Is one thing i keep asking and nobody does a test to it, including this in your tests it will be a plus. When recording video in a loud sound environment does the active noise cancellation makes the surround sound awful? For example if you record a video in front of a speaker playing music, or in a live music event (not for know covid related :( ) does the sound fluctuates, it comes and goes, and gets cuted like in all other xiaomi models?
    Thank you.

    My Redmi Note 5 gave up after 2 years, I bought this one. 6 months passed after Chris's review. Several points that Chris criticized were improved, in particular regarding the camera. BTW. it is by far superior to the Redmi Note 5's camera.
    Over night fuel consumption is < 1%.
    This is what I do not like:
    - Auto-brightness works erratically, I wonder why nobody complains?
    - Glass casing nooooooooo, I did not want to ever buy a mobile with glass rear, but it was the best deal here in Singapore. I ordered a clumsy fat heavy sleeve.
    - Tiny white colour only notification Led.
    - Teardrop front camera black spot, ridiculous idea that thing.
    Everything else is fine. I paid USD 160 for the 6 Gb / 64 Gb version, a good deal.

    One major complaint about the phone - notifications bar (status bar, as named in phone's os) is extremely flawed.
