Pls is there a way I can fix this.

Bc when I snap with iPhone and Samsung, whatsapp still maintains there quality when uploaded. Thanks
If it's for whatsapp status, crop the picture a little.
Quality would drop but manageably

ok pls recommend a good one with full screen display

You should be more bothered about functionality and stability in these kind of thing than full screen display. Try any that I listed from Mi Remote, Sure or DSTV Remote and settle for your best.

Psychologists call something the confirmation bias, which is the tendency to search for, interpret, favor, and recall information in a way that confirms or supports one's prior beliefs or values. It is an important type of cognitive bias that has a significant effect on the proper functioning of society by distorting evidence-based decision-making.

The NewDelhi guy believes Dxomark is unreliable because he didn't see the phone's he expected to see at the top.
2 things are worth nothing here.
1) If Dxomark had ranked a phone he expected to see at the top as number one, the list would have been valid as far as he is concerned
2) He has neither used nor probably seen any of those phones listed in the top category, which makes one wonder how he got to know the rating is false.

Putting these two points aside, someone challenged him to come up with a list of smartphones with the best camera from those websites he tagged reputable and he has avoided that specific comment like a plague to continue his rambling.
Based on this premise, If he can't come up with a list that counters the Dxomark ratings, then his ramblings should just be ignored henceforth.
Everyone is free to believe in whatever they feel like
I've listed all the websites for you imy last comment here. Do yourself a favor by checking it out yourself. Your dxomarl isn't even among the top ten review sites for mobile phones. Little wonder the weed smoking junk can confidently say xiomi whatever model has a better camera than asking Galaxy S20 ultra. If you make that statement outside you might get shot.

Mind you I use a OnePlus 7 pro. Thats a 260k phone and i doubt you can afford it.

Send as document. The recipient gets the compressed output not the sender.

It's actually for WhatsApp status upload mostly.

My people, greetings to you.

Please, orders on aliexpress shipped since 1 month ago, the last update on is 'departed country of origin'.
When I track them on 17track I see error.
When I track them on nipost, it brings up no results.

Please what could be the problem?

Try doing OTA.
Just did... It says it cod still not be verified that I should try downloading again.
My network was solid almost through the process.
Though I had to switch switch data which I was running out of data. Could this be the problem it asked me to redownload?

Mustiboy:


It's most likely a software bug. Have you tried hard-rebooting your phone? If that doesn't fix it, you can try hard-resetting the phone.

Note, there is a difference between hard reboot and hard reset. The former requires you to hold your power button for 10 seconds while the latter means you wiping your phone.

it is normal, the android system + miui +pre-installed apps and services is bound to occupy about 7-10gb of your internal storage.

I think smartphone camera reviews and ratings depends on different criteria used by different sites and blogs. For example Gsmarena rated the S20 ultra as the best, followed by Mi note 10 and iPhone 11 pro in second and third position respectively. Another popular blog Tom's guide also puts the galaxy S20 ultra in the first position followed by Huawei P40 and galaxy S20 in the second and third positions respectively, MI note 10 is in 7th position. There is also another site digitalcameraworld,com, that still placed the galaxy S20 ultra as number one followed by Huawei P40 and galaxy S10 5G in 2nd and 3rd positions, again mi note 10 is in 8th position. My conclusion is, all these phones have great cameras, it is pointless to keep arguing on which one is the best because even the professionals have a tough time in selecting the best among them.

We are talking Mi 10 Ultra Vs Samsung Note 20 Ultra Vs Huawei P40 Pro. This your listing is 7 months old.

I don't rate Tomsguide in smartphone reviews. And one thing with American review websites when recommending smartphones, in their lists, the favour smartphones that can be easily gotten from their country.

There is what is called improvements, If Xiaomi could help Samsung develop the 108Mp sensor what is remaining again.

Mi 10 Ultra is even using a custom made 48MP sensor developed by Omnivision for Xiaomi.

no probs. you should set only the SIM card you use to browse to 4g to ease up stress on your battery... you are still flexing miui 10 I see, hope you have visited the Xiaomi compilation thread for important tutorials? if yes, then enjoy your device.

I think...

Lemme quickly correct you. DXOmark reviews smartphones and DSLR cameras. That's all they're concerned about and not the smartphone reviews. They're industry renowned which means their test is done scientifically and is detail oriented. When other smartphone reviewers do their reviews they don't spend weeks or months in a camera lab testing it. They usually go with the photo outputs on day to day usage and scenario.

They don't test artifacting on zoom, they don't bother on compression loss, they don't detail edge detection in portrait shots, they don't check skin tone accuracy, scene details and many more.

If GSMArena says a smartphone has one of the best cameras they've seen that's doesn't mean it's actually the best, all things considered, but it doesn't mean it's horrible either. If you're peculiar about a smartphones camera, DXOMARK has always been the standard and many of these review sites sometimes base their reviews around it.

If the Mi 10 Ultra has the best camera on a smartphone right now, that doesn't mean the Note 20 Ultra's camera is garbage. If you have the time, and the data to burn, head up to DXOMARK's website and do a detailed comparison on both devices.

"Fact doesn't care about your feelings."

They're being compressed by the SM algorithm. They're not blurry. What's your previous smartphone if I may ask?
