Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S review: A great alternative to the notch
The Mi Mix 2S runs the fastest chip available today and offers a new powerful new dual camera setup.

The Mi Mix 2S shares a lot of commonalities with its predecessor, including the 5.99-inch Full HD+ (2160×1080) display backed by Gorilla Glass 4. Like last year, three sides of the panel feature razor-thin bezels, with a bulk of the sensors crammed into the bottom bar. The rest of the design is identical — you get a ceramic back with an aluminum mid-frame — but the curves at the back are more pronounced, leading to better in-hand feel.
The thin bezels up front make the overall experience that much more immersive, and the screen itself is one of the best in this category. Like its predecessor, the Mi Mix 2S lets you adjust the font size along with the color temperature, and there’s a blue light filter that can be configured to kick in according to a particular schedule.
The Snapdragon 835 in the Mi Mix 2 wasn’t necessarily short on power, but the Snapdragon 845 builds on that — this is the fastest chipset in the world today. Apps load instantaneously, and I never saw a slowdown even when playing visually-demanding titles. Xiaomi is also rolling out increased storage options, with the Mi Mix 2S coming with 8GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. The phone is available with 6GB of RAM and 64GB or 128GB of storage as well.
