And now the moment has come, when we were ready with all the material and knowledge we needed to launch Xiaomi's best phone, the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S. Compared to its predecessor, the Mix 2S has been given a facelift internally, the look is exactly the same at first glance, only the expert eyes would tell you which is which. It's the back that's the most telling, as the Mix 2 only has a single main camera, while the Mix 2S now boasts a dual camera. We'll devote a whole article to the camera, we won't go into it here.

 

If we go a little further in, the real development is revealed, because the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S already uses this year's best mobile processor, the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845-was awarded.

Snapdragon 845

What can you know about the Qualcomm plant? (Quote from the manufacturer's website)

"The Snapdragon 845 mobile platform is our ultimate smart mobile platform that extends the way people see, hear and see the world around them."

X20 modem and Wi-Fi

Experience fibre speeds with the Snapdragon X20 LTE modem. New flexibility means that more operators around the world are offering lightning-fast Gigabit LTE service, now with up to 20% faster peak and real speeds compared to the last generation X16 LTE modem. Users can also experience similar lightning-fast speeds with 802.11ad multi-gigabit Wi-Fi and a built-in 2×2 802.11ac module.

Adreno 630 visual processing subsystem

Get a more enjoyable experience with the Qualcomm® Adreno™ 630 visual processing subsystem (including GPU, VPU and DPU), which with Adreno Foveation 6DoF SLAM has significantly improved graphics rendering and video processing over the previous generation.

Qualcomm Spectra 280 ISP

The Qualcomm Spectra™ 280 ISP is equipped with premium and XR cameras with a maximum resolution of 16 MP at 60 frames per second. Video enthusiasts will appreciate cinematic quality videos thanks to ultra-HD premium recording with richer colour.

Qualcomm Secure Processing Unit (SPU)

The Snapdragon 845 is designed with an all-new Qualcomm® Secure Processing Unit (SPU) that protects your personal data with vaulted security. Biometric data used for authentication can be stored in isolation to help protect your precious data.

AI Platform

The 3rd generation Qualcomm® Hexagon™ 685 DSP supports sophisticated, cross-device AI processing that delivers richer camera image, sound, XR and gaming experiences.

There are a lot of tests, analyses and comparisons online, so I wouldn't get into a numbers game. You won't feel the difference when using the Mix 2s even if you have a phone with a Snapdragon 8 series in your hand, the MIUI Managing, Facebook, browsing, watching movies, listening to music is no better. The experience is all in the phone itself, with its huge screen, slim bezels, looks and premium feel.

So what's new in the Mix 2S is the Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 SoC, dual rear cameras, Artificial Intelligence and Qi standard wireless charging. All of these give the Mix 2S its novelty power.

Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S frequency coverage

Of course, the Mix 2S has full frequency coverage, and the Hungarian B20/800MHz band is also amplified by the phone, so no one in the country has to worry about not having 4G internet somewhere in the countryside. For completeness:
