Software is the thing Xioami is regularly lagging behind. But their hardware is amazing.

MIUI must be great in China, but even with a global rom, it's not going to be prioritised for the western world. Lazy scamsung is all we have, their software is top notch.
They improved really much more - Battery Hinge Camera (too impressive) Connectivity Display Software WC Design Etc.... One of the best folds.....

Do u get the mix fold 3 in India?
Thanks for the review. You did well to get your hands on this!
Amazing review. Well done ✅ got yourself another sub
My god. This is the best tech review video I have seen in a long time. The level of granular details you presented, highlights and shortcomings, comparisons with its predecessor etc.. You deserve an adjective beyond my vocabulary. Fantastic job done.
wow! What a Good review 👍 Thanks!
I want to see a long-term review for Xiaomi 13 - the little one. Battery drain test, photo comparison etc.
Thanks , excellent review
Please make a compare with all foldable phone of this year. i wish to see all foldable camera performance.
Been using the xiaomi fold 3 for 2 weeks now after coming from the Samsung Fold 4 which went kaput after a yearwith a malfunctioning inner screen. In a word, amazing. The fold 3 is a technical marvel. I love the device and its slimmer profile. I find muself using the outer screen more due to its proper size compared to the told 4 and when fully opened, it is a delight tor media consumption. The only negative is that it cannot connect to my garmin venu 2 or android auto. The set up to use google was fairly smooth. Best fold indeed.
Thanks for complet review. Also shout-out to Xiaomi for fix the software issues. From last year mi 12 pro and now 13 pro i never seen any issues with software or anything else regarding that
This is one of the best reviews I have seen in a while, too bad it isn't released in US....
Also gets notifications in Uk and AOD shows icons for app notifications... not always on Chinese ROM devices.

Good to know as i placed an order last night for my unit. As a Samsung Fold 3 daily power user for the last 2 years, i feel this Xiaomi is what Samsung Fold 5 should have been to keep me going on the Galaxy line. Way more excited about the hardware and design than i ever was since i migrated to the Folding world of smartphones.

@@aleks4067 i switched to Xiaomi Fold 3 from Samsung Fold 3(which i still have as a backup) so i can compare first hand the ecosystems. Battery life is about 20-30% higher in terms of same use case scenario. It's a long time i haven't been so excited to use a new phone like i have been with the current Xiaomi & the downside in my experience has been a less optimised software in terms of little things that matter like Google Maps(still not running correctly in walk mode). Other than that i wouldn't switch back to the Samsung Fold unless they increase at least similarly the front screen display and the foldable one in same or better thiness. Go for it.
Truly a masterpiece
Just the unboxing alone had me feeling scammed with the fold 5 😪 this is incredible
Bruh deserve 5 millions+😢 But Doesn't get that supports 😭😭
Now that I have the 120 watt charger idk if I could go down in charging tech lol. It's ridiculous most of the time, but man when you need it, it's a real life saver. 0-50% in less than 10 mins is really helpful.
Is there any official source where it says how many PWM the display has? Does it have the DC Dimming option? Does activating it change the color of the display?
Could you compare it with the Honor Magic V2?
Can you do honor magic v2?

the way you review is unbelieveable and super detail. love it!! the mix fold 3 is beastt I think, no complain about this mix fold 3. the camera,display,speaker and material just perfect.
It’s missing the ultrasonic fingerprint sensor for more secure environment.
useful and good looking design
Even though i have a fold 5 im really having to restrain myself from picking one of these up. Want to see what One plus comes up with first on their foldable. This was an outstanding review though!

Does XM3 work well with samsung watch? I know ECG and blood pressure doesn't work but how about others?
Do a comparison with the honor magic v2 and the vivo fold

I have the Fold 3 and am enjoying it very much. Given that it has Google Play I had few problems setting it up down here in NZ. The only problem I have is that some apps such as Rotten Tomatoes displays in Chinese only despite deleting and reinstalling many times. Are there any solutions here?

my cons : 1. over exposed camera on bright backgounds 2. late/not getting notifications
Great job, as always, Nick.

Name of themes on this phone, please?
My Xiaomi Mix Fold 3 1TB is on HyperOS and there are 2 software bugs: 1. Battery Protection I set it to 80% but my phone charges to 100%. 2. WhatsApp calls coming in has ringtone, but the screen is still showing homescreen and when the phone is locked, the lock screen doesn't show.
Does it support android auto? As great as the phone seems, that is a deal breaker for me.
Finally a one worth buying ....that you can't buy.
Will Android Auto work with this phone?
I wasn't going to comment however, since the Xiaomi 13, you can see that the xiaomi cameras don't seem to, at least they don't bring me that "Cellphone camera" thing. The coloring, lighting, among others, you can see that Xiaomi, together with LEICA, is working to really look like photographs taken by DSLR
The crease🙇🏾♂️ and software compatibility are one of the few things that hold foldable phones/Tablets back for me. Great video as always Nick🔥🇿🇦

If you have to choose between Honor Magic Vs2 and the Xiaomi, which one should you go for @technick ?
The only thing stopping me buying one is the CN software, lock screen notifications dont display on every CN handset i have bought, all have the same issue, a real pity because Samsung know thye have the market sewn up, they need this to come to global markets so they get a bloody nose!
Wish it worked on Verizon near me in USA :(
After using my Pixel 6 Pro for almost a year, I feel cringe to hold a phone with circular curves (including iPhones lol) in top and bottom corners. This phone seems to be a very comfortable option for me as a foldable device. Love my Pixel and waiting for Galaxy S24U🥰

I think it's becoming really necessary to separate Foldable phones from Tablet phones. Phones like Pixel Fold or Mix Fold 3 are cool. But they are just phones that unfold into a phone with a bigger screen. The lack of stylus support, bad multi tasking/split screen and software that lacks tablet features/inner screen optimisation makes it pretty impossible to use them like tablets. Z Fold or Magic V2 actually can be used like small tablets = Tablet Phones. Pixel Fold, Mix Fold 3, X Fold 2 etc are Foldable Phones.

@@XdekHckr What are you even talking about... First of all: Magic V2 does have 5g and will have an official western release. You might as well use your time checking your facts instead of spreading misinformation. Secondly: well, yes. Tablet Phones exist. Foldable phones that can operate as a tablet. Which the Z Fold can do. It has the necessary software capabilities as well as SPen support to perfectly substitute a tablet. It literally is a small tablet. Whereas other foldable phones are literally just phones with a second bigger screen. Awful multitasking, worse app compatibility, no SPen support etc. They can't substitute a tablet.
