from August 6 to 10 . All participants selected by our jury will be invited to the office.savagemessiahzine.com. There, together with a smartphone, everyone will receive a pre-selected task — test the camera, OS interface, or test the smartphone in their daily tasks — and detailed instructions.

one an application in this topic (no longer needed - only one smartphone is still in the hands).
How to apply: From July 30 to August 6 (12:00) leave a message in this thread and wait for the decision of the jury - out of all the candidates three test participants will be selected. One post is enough, but its content is important.
The points that should be in the application: 1) The model of the smartphone that you use;
2) Indicate exactly what you would like to test in the new Xiaomi: camera, OS interface or device operation in everyday tasks.
3) Perform a test task - one of the three, depending on what you want to learn in your smartphone (for more details on each task, see below). As an "experimental" take your own apparatus.
Attention! Applications in which at least one of the listed points will not be listed will not be considered!
Test items 1. Camera . Select the object for photography - unusual building, sculptural or something of interest to you. Note the composition of the frame - we will evaluate including your photography skills. In the frame must necessarily be a word Xiaomi - written by hand on the screen or on the person (fantasy welcome). As a result, you should get the photos that reveal the possibilities of the smartphone cameras - the main and the front - one on each photo. Confirming the inscription to add to a photo editor is prohibited.
Example of the task: Photos from the main camera
Selfies
2. OS interface. Shall describe the interface features of your device OS - what stands out from the competition, the pros and cons of the firmware. What features do you find particularly useful, some unnecessary and just wasted resource consumption of the smartphone, which features a software and, on the contrary, is not enough. You need to paint at least three flashing functions (at least one function for each case). Sustain text corresponding screenshots (under spoiler or a reference to the file in the "cloud"). No need to write a great essay should get a short article up to 1500 characters.
Example of the task: My smartphone is running the operating system Android 7.0. Initially, I did not like the fact that a large number of applications were pre-installed on the smartphone, as is often the case. They were just enough to remove, the truth had to spend time on it.
In general, the interface is simple, classic for Android devices, any user can handle it. It's nice that the flashlight and camera can be opened with a gesture right from the locked screen, on my old smartphone there was clearly not enough of this function.
The main thing that I like about the smartphone's interface is how to work with notifications on the locked screen, you can easily remove them, reply to messages in applications, in the mail, transfer and end reminders. At the same time, to mark the read message in a third-party application, you do not need to unlock the phone and enter the passcode.
It used to irritate me on all smartphones that it is very difficult to enable or disable notifications from applications. It was necessary to do this in several places at once: in the settings of a separate application, in the notification settings, in the lock screen settings ... Here it is done only in the notification settings. Is that some applications allow advanced settings in the interface of the application itself, but this is a separate conversation.
3. General testing of the smartphone. For what tasks it is best suited. Write a short story about
What tasks does your smartphone do best? What exactly is suitable for your smartphone - for work, games, photography, or maybe it is an image device. Highlight a few main tasks, do not need to write about everything. Explain why you think so. If necessary, support the story with photos of the smartphone and screenshots (under the spoiler or a link to the archive in the "cloud"). No need to write a great essay, you should get a small note without a volume of up to 1500 characters.
An example of a task (in this case games are chosen as an everyday task): The smartphone has a powerful processor, colorful frameless screen and a good adaptation for games. As befits a similar model, it copes with the "heavy" games. The display response time is 1 ms, and the refresh rate is 90 Hz. Even the fastest games are not late in the picture.
The Type-C connector is located on the side panel of the smartphone instead of the bottom, it allows you to simultaneously charge it and play without putting your hands on the wire, as happens on ordinary models.
The smartphone was equipped with an additional cooling plate, so the hands during the game do not melt, as under the Krasnodar sun in July. In previous smartphones, this annoyed me, and sometimes it was even a bit scary that the battery would catch fire.
Of all my smartphones, the best combination for games (according to the characteristics of the screen / sound / speed / autonomy) has not yet existed, even in devices more expensive than this.
