Unbelievable slow with too many problems.
Probably the worst phone that Xiaomi has released.
I don't recommend it at all.

Pros:
Good oled screen
paid one hundred for it
Cons:
- The first of many but undoubtedly the biggest as it renders the phone unusable is aggressive memory management. Need to get a password from a reset email forget it, web page dumped from memory as soon as you leave Chrome. Need a security code to compete an online shopping transaction, forget it, web page dumped from memory. Need to follow an online auction, forget it as page refreshes don't happen. The phone is useless.
- design: volume and power buttons placed for left handed users which is crazy. Single speaker is covered by your finger when you hold it in your left hand as a right handed user.
- sound: worst sound from any phone I've ever had in over 20 years of smart phones even when you contort your grip to not cover the speaker.
- speed: this phone stutters even playing candy crush, I suspect this is RAM related as my last phone had a notionally much older and worse processor and was fine with such a basic app. Basic browsing tasks are frequently interrupted by "chrome is not responding" again this is likely RAM related.
- camera: the camera is fine(ish) until you have something to compare it to. The issues are likely software related, the Mi camera app is extremely poor as the sensor is actually quite capable. I tried the phone with a port of Google camera and the photos were outstanding but unfortunately the app struggled to run on the phone.
- MiUI OS: buggy, settings are all over the place, Chinese apps (like the included browser) cannot be removed at all without rooting the phone which would void the warranty. These take up a surprising amount of space.
- battery life: notionally the 5000mah battery should be good but it isn't, moderate mixed useage will require charging 2 or more times per day in my experience. I think the phone is running hard to do even basic stuff and this is scuppering the battery life.
I really wanted to like this phone, especially at the bargain price I paid but in all honesty it is hopeless for everyone but the very lightest of users. The issues are, in my opinion, related to the 4gb of RAM which it would seem is simply not enough to allow smooth operation. I can only assume that the outstanding reviews are either people with no frame of reference or are fictional. If you are considering buying this phone then my advice is, simply, don't. Indeed the ironically named "Hyper OS" is so frustrating in every day usage I would not recommend Xiaomi at all to anyone. I can't even sell the thing without taking a huge loss as Xiaomi have destroyed the second hand market by dumping all the unsold handsets at next to nothing prices. avoid avoid avoid
