Typo at the very first word(s) 🙂
“GPD’s latest flagship phones…”
Lol.
I would’ve been interested in the Xiaomi Mi 13, had they introduced the “Camera Concept” that they recently revealed as the Xiaomi 12S Ultra Leica-M. You can use the phone as a regular Point’n’Shoot camera like an iPhone, or attach a real DLSR Lens to the back, and take actual Professional-grade photographs like a Nikon, Canon, etc.
Still it’s hard to overlook other the issues with Xiaomi. Such as clunky software, poor updates, lack of customer support, and lack of User Features (Headphone Jack, microSD, USB 3.2, TV Out, IP68 or User Removable Battery).
I would agree on clunky software if it where a few years ago, but the overall software experience for miui is quite polished now. It’s different, but it’s not bad.
