After the presentation I read conflicting information.
SE NFC is not, right?

3.5mm, SDcard, NFC, no ... it looks good, but why is it needed ... I use a smartphone without an SDcard, it also has 64gb and you know what? Not enough We have to constantly use OTG to keep audio, video, photos, throw games, music, movies that weigh in today's time is not enough. Constantly on the road in wired headphones, and the phone is connected to the power bank. NFC was needed except in France and Germany, a friend had a smart phone with NFC with ip68 protection, he didn't carry paper money, he didn't even carry plastic cards, unlike me.

As always, to each according to his needs: someone got used to ordinary headphones, and someone switched to bluetooth or adapters; Someone is not enough 64, and someone is storing extra data in the cloud; Someone uses contactless payments, but someone does not. In general, there are no universal phones.

But for that kind of money it’s hard to find an alternative

It depends on what is meant by alternative, by what criteria it is defined. What se can not do is understandable: no nfc, gps seems normal, not dual-band, the camera is cut, there is no optical stabilization, not the fastest flash. And what he, in fact, in the end can? The feeling that the se is a state employee who, for some reason, stuck a 710 processor, removed 3.5 and IR, and asked for an inordinate amount of money for it, does not leave.))

The SE has excellent body dimensions.
Already I want to cuddle him.

Is there no stabilizer in the camera? (

In the video in the hands of the Chinese SE looks well, very much a big shovel. Maybe it's Chinese. But the same Mix 2 with its technical characteristics, approximately the same dimensions seems more interesting, incl. and design.

In your case, the devices are more expensive.

Snap 835, support for many frequencies, screen without cut, ceramic body. Only single camera, slightly lower screen density, lower GPU and no IR port

In the sense of no NFC ???? From infa ?!

And AMOLED vs. IPS, in favor of Mi8 SE, as one of the significant advantages.

And the extended list of 4G frequencies, I think, will be delivered to the global version.

It's not about the price. I do not agree with the statement that "for such money it is difficult to find an alternative." I would rather say that a device with a more incomprehensible positioning is difficult to find.
Yes, there are people who do not need anything special from the phone (as you put it, "for each according to his needs"). For these, there is an alternative for double / three less money - redmi 5 / plus. And in it there are such useful things as IR and 3.5.
For those who want an advanced phone, the closest alternative is mi note 3. For a lower price, while everyone is better - there is everything you can wish for. The only thing is that he is more shoveling than I would like. For this case, there is a mi5 - it is smaller and lighter, while much cheaper, or mi6 - a little more expensive but better.

And what should make buying an analogue redmi 5 (even worse in some places) is almost at the price of flagships - I won’t mind. Who is this phone for?

And mi8 / her - alas, shovels.

I completely agree. For me, this new generation is a complete failure.
I was expecting something with the physical dimensions of Mi5 / 6, but with features of Mi8 EE :)
That is why they did not roll out the SE as Mi7 and in the winter / spring I don’t understand. There are no special chips in it.

mi6 - slightly more expensive but better

His screen is almost an inch smaller, IPS, more expensive, design is not modern, the front-end is also weak

[email protected], 12:50

mi note 3

cpu, gpu weaker, design is not modern, IPS

[email protected], 12:50

for half / three less money - redmi 5 / plus

this one almost in all respects lags behind, except for the price

[email protected], 12:50

And mi8 / her - alas, shovels.

There are a lot of people who prefer this design to the previous one.

well, how would
1. Nowhere about it said
2. In the next topic, mi 8 already had the dudes in Beijing and took a photo of the settings mi 8 se and mi 8. There is no mi 8 nfc, there is no se
3. It was expected, considering the price.

But in general, I share the indignation about this)

Yes, I am very indignant ..... Tupnyak is complete without NSF.
I am looking for now Mi Mix 2 for adequate money)

[Qfx]

I began to look closely at the device, as a replacement for my zed play, but the lack of nfts repels. insanely handy chip, even with the cut would be reconciled, but alas. Now we will wait for C8 light.

[ivansav]

DigitAll_UzIt is clear that there is nothing ideal for all cases, but nevertheless, under every need there are more and less optimal apparatuses. So in 8 all the set of characteristics - hellish hodgepodge. There are few people for whom he will not have unacceptable jambs.

“Trend design” is, of course, an advantage, but only if the choice is made between several devices with approximately the same characteristics, and not when it is the only argument “for” in the presence of a mass of arguments “against”.
AMOLED is not an advantage over IPS.

DigitAll_Uz @ 05.06.18, 12:15

He (mi6) screen is almost an inch smaller

Firstly, far from an inch. 5.15 vs. 5.85 is 0.7 inches. But 5.85 is at the expense of the bangs + 18: 9. And so, ideologically, their screens are almost the same, but the mi6 is incomparably due to the really thin flagship side frames, as opposed to those fatter than the average in 8sec.
So, taking into account the positioning of the 8th as a "compact", these are its weaknesses.
(If we do not want a compact, then this is another story, everything is fine, mi8 / ee drags.)

DigitAll_Uz @ 05.06.18, 12:15

this one (redmi5) lags behind by almost all parameters, except for the price

And who else should look in the direction of the 8th, if not a hardened economist? If for him +/- 13,000 rubles is not money, then he will buy himself some samsung s8 / 9 or maybe even an oyphon x, but this is certainly not the product.
