Xiaomi Mi Mix 3

Fantastic longevity ; Great performance ; Attractive design and finish ; Pleasing near bezel-free display

Great 6.39" Super AMOLED screen

Lacks water-proofing

Sure, the Mix 3 omits a thing or two, but it's a very solid device worth having and a needed break of those notched smartphones. And if you aren't convinced yet, you just have to go and try it yourself and see how the retro slider came back to kill the...

The Mi Mix 3 is absolutely gorgeous and its sliding mechanism makes a satisfying click. The camera takes great shots as well and battery life is fantastic.

The phone can be a fingerprint magnet, it's not waterproof and the front cameras don't do secure 3D face unlocking.

Xiaomi's flagship phone is almost the perfect phone, and the company's making it available in even more countries. The bad news is the US isn't one of them.
