Xiaomi Mi 4chat_bubble_outlineFrom real comments

The under-display camera impressed far more people than expected. Multiple commenters directly compared Xiaomi's UDC to Samsung's Z Fold 3 and ZTE's attempts, concluding it is both better hidden and better quality. Reviewers noted the camera is 'totally better' than rival implementations and 'nearly perfected' for most users, even as some acknowledged it's still early-generation tech that will keep improving with future iterations.

The seamless design is a major draw for design-focused buyers. Fans coming from phones like the Mi9T Pro or K20 Pro said the fully uninterrupted front screen and unified glass-and-frame back were reasons to finally switch. Several called the symmetrical bezel-free look 'incomparable' and 'so god damn aesthetic', showing that industrial design carries real weight in the buying decision, not just specs.

Not everyone is sold on sacrificing camera quality for a notch-free look. A recurring counterpoint held that the selfie camera remains the weakest of the sensors, and some users said they'd rather live with a small cutout or notch than accept softer, smudged selfies. Concerns about ceramic build fragility, camera bump bulk, and general privacy implications of under-display cameras were also raised.
