Cons
Our editorial view of this model’s strengths and limitations.
Noticeable weight and thickness
The phone weighs 226g and its body is 9.35mm thick. You notice it in a pocket, and a case adds more bulk, making extended one-handed use less comfortable.
You may need a separate charger
Xiaomi does not list an adapter in the package on its global website. Maximum charging speed needs a compatible 90W adapter and cable, so check the seller’s package contents beforehand.
No memory-card expansion
There is no microSD slot. Choose enough storage for photos, videos and games upfront, or expect to clear space and move files elsewhere later.
