prologue: I get this phone just to know about MIUI usability on big screen, my actual plan is to get MiMix but it's already sold out, I never use MIUI before, so I get MiMax (the cheapest model with 2GB of RAM, and SD650) to try MIUI while waiting MiMix (and waiting for S8 leak... just in case)..
ok, let's start...
first thing that everyone will notice when they see this phone is it's huge size... not really difficult to hold, and not heavy, but still annoying when you sit down with this phone inside your front pocket.. it's not a problem if you wear baggy pants (the one from 90s with lots of pockets, not youngster's saggy pants), in my case, I use loose jeans, but most of time I place them inside inner pocket of jacket or coats whenever I go out..
next, about usability..
FPscanner is easily reachable, and it's fast.. pulling down notification shade also easy since you can do it anywhere on homescreen/appdrawer (btw, homescreen and appdrawer is one place in MIUI), one hand mode also easy to trigger, and the screen size is adjustable,,, the hardest button to reach is recent button, but you can long press back button to call recent app list (with some modification on setting)
performance?
SD650+2GB is fast enough.. but MIUI is eating most of that RAM..
600-800MB free most of time, with no apps opened.. opening youtube app and chrome is no go, one of them will closed on background and reopening when you switch..
but can't argue with it's $200 asking price, lol...
and it's battery is really a monster, charging it twice a week with my average usage
I'll cut it here, since my original review is too long and get cut, lol..
td;dr it's a annoyingly huge phone, it's spec is a good bang for buck, but I'll recommend it's smaller sibling RN3pro, since it have more reasonable size, lol..
