If anyone doesn’t know, let me remind you of its brief specifications. The device is equipped with a huge 6.44-inch display with FullHD resolution, 6-core Snapdragon processor 650 with a clock frequency of 1.8 GHz and an Adreno 510 graphics accelerator. To get acquainted and write a review, I chose the simplest modification with 2 GB of RAM and 16 GB internal memory with the possibility of expansion using a flash card. I think that this version will be enough for me to appreciate the Mi Max smartphone.


The phone is simply excellent, although I was a little disappointed by the firmware version 7.8.11.0, which was installed by the seller. Since on this device Since international versions of firmware are officially released, it is not difficult to update yourself without first unlocking the bootloader. On this moment the latest international stable version is v.7.5.6.0, but since the developer, during testing of the new MIUI8, uploads beta versions for everyone, I chose the latest version 6.7.29 for the firmware. At the same time, I will review a smartphone with MIUI8 firmware, the final release of which will take place at the end of August.


So, let’s fully charge the smartphone and get started.

These instructions are intended only for installing the official international (global) firmware version on a smartphone with a locked bootloader using fastboot. To install the localized version from xiaomi.eu, miui.su, etc. you must first unlock the bootloader and install a custom recovery TWRP, from which you can flash the device with a file in .zip format.


There are several modifications of Mi Max, so you need to download the firmware specifically for your device according to the code names:


  • Hydrogen - Mi Max 2/16 and Mi Max 3/32 (Snapdragon 650);

  • Helium - Mi Max 3/64 and Mi Max 4/128 (Snapdragon 652).


Download the desired firmware version and unpack it into the root folder, the name of which does not contain Cyrillic. Download and install the necessary software and drivers. Download and install the new beta version of the XiaoMiFlash application and run it as Administrator. In the program window that appears, click on the Select button and specify the folder with the unzipped firmware. When upgrading from an unknown firmware version, as in my case, I recommend installing the firmware with all data deleted; to do this, check Clean all in the lower right corner of the XiaoMiFlash application window. If you are updating from previous version and don’t want to lose files, then you need to check Save user data.



In the smartphone settings, in the About device section, click on the MIUI Version item several times until a message appears about activating Developer Mode. Next, in the additional settings, go to the For Developers section and activate USB debugging and factory unlocking. After this, turn off the smartphone. Now you need to load the device into Emergency Download (EDL) mode; to do this, simultaneously press the volume and power buttons and hold until you feel a slight vibration. The screen should not turn on. We connect the smartphone to the PC when microUSB help cable. If everything on the computer necessary drivers installed, then the following picture should appear in Device Manager.



If everything matches, then in the XiaoMiFlash application we press the Refresh button, after which our device should appear in the table.



To start the software update, click on the Flash button. The firmware process takes from 3 to 5 minutes. If completed successfully, the message Success will appear. If unforeseen situations arise during the firmware installation, a message describing the error will be displayed in the Result column.

    MIUI 9 has become available as a global beta for Xiaomi smartphones, so why not discuss the latest version of the popular shell using the example of Xiaomi Mi Max 2? Go!

    VIDEO REVIEW


    IN Mi Max 2 I initially didn’t like the not very fast interface and the lack of main features Android 7.0 by type of multi-window interface and quick response to incoming notifications. What has changed in MIUI 9?

    APPEARANCE



    Visually, MIUI 9 has not changed much from the previous version. We added or changed animation somewhere, updated the lock screen in standard theme, but in general it’s still the same “eight”.

    OPERATION SPEED

    Many MIUI 9 reviews say that the speed of launching applications has increased noticeably. Comparing the Mi Max 2 with a pure Android phone with similar hardware, I saw that applications run generally the same, adjusted for the slightly greater performance of the Snapdragon 626 Moto Z2 Play.

    And if before this everything worked really slower, now the speed is the same as that of normal devices. Other improvements to optimize operating speed are quite difficult to evaluate, but applications are unloaded from memory in approximately the same way.

    NEW FEATURES AND IMPROVEMENTS

    Important, for me personally, was the appearance of split screen into two applications. It was the lack of this function that prevented us from enjoying the size of the Mi Max 2 to the fullest. Well, now this is a thing of the past, but launching the multi-window mode itself turned out to be not the most convenient.



    In “naked android” everything is simple: go to the menu latest apps, drag the screen up and that’s it. Or you hold down the button to call this menu and the function is activated independently. In MIUI 9, to activate multi-windows, you need to press an additional button in the application menu, and quick launch simply not.

    But having managed to screw up in one place, the Chinese caught up in another, improving the overall logic of this opportunity. In "naked Android", if you don't play tricks with the settings in developer mode, not every application can be launched in multi-window mode.

    When you open such an application, the mode is completely exited: if you were previously watching a video while scrolling through your Twitter feed, the video will pause, and when you return you will need to re-enter this mode. In MIUI 9, everything is different: the active video is not paused and when you return back, the multi-window mode continues to work.



    Another expected improvement is a quick response from the notification bar without entering the application itself. And here there is a problem. This feature is beautifully and conveniently implemented only in standard application SMS, in other cases, pop-up notifications only serve as a notification function, and the work in the notification line still looks crooked and ugly. The situation is similar with the lock screen.


    Working ahead of the curve, MIUI 9 introduced a feature from Android 8 Oreo, namely the priority of notifications: now not the most important ones will be in a separate menu, but the most important ones will always be on top.

    New services have bypassed the European version of the firmware, remaining exclusive to China, however, due to the fact that one of them is an analog Google Now on Tap, and second - Google Photos, it’s unlikely that anyone will be very upset about this.

    UPDATE AVAILABILITY

    The MIUI 9 beta has been available for a month now on the Mi Max 2, and on the regular Mi Max too, but since the updates in the beta version are weekly, I decided to wait for a month, maybe they’ll finish off some of my complaints, but alas. Yes, and I didn’t really count on it. It is not particularly known when the stable version will be released, but it is quite possible that the update will appear before the end of the year.

    CONCLUSIONS

    As a result, Mi Max 2 received good update. It even seems to me that he has become better at shooting. And those who don’t really need multi-windowing have seen an increase in work speed.


    However, MIUI itself for me personally remains a substance in which good ideas often interfere with the basic operation of Android. But these are just my personal feelings. And what is the Xioami smartphone like? pure android- you will find out soon in one of the reviews.
