Hi guys Chris here with a quick comparison
between the Samsung Galaxy s8 which of
course is this one on the right now this
particular model is the Exynos version
so the optical one this is the European
model this Snapdragon 835 that we have
in the Xiaomi Mi 6 so six gigabytes
of RAM on the v6 and we get four
gigabytes on the Samsung Galaxy s8 this
has a 64 gigabytes of storage u FS 2.0
so does this one both have very quick
speeds I will show you benchmarks of
that in a second but I first wanted to
cover the design so we get a not so
traditional aspect ratio on the galaxy 8
so a longer screen that means that we
get more usability out of the screen
well not really we've got on-screen
buttons which I don't particularly like
same things moving doing that and we
have capacitive buttons on the me 896
sorry which is fine and good and a
front-facing fingerprint reader so 1440p
screen on the s8 and then a 1080p screen
on the me 6 both of these screens have
very good brightness and it's hard to
tell the difference between both of them
this being 1440p and this being 1080p
looking at them you almost need to get a
microscope to see the difference they
are both very good displays but I'm
going to have to say that the viewing
angles on the air side are just a little
bit better and overall it's a much
brighter screen also in direct sunlight
and I do like the deep blacks we get
with the AMOLED panel there now the
cameras on the rear 12 megapixel this
has an F 1.7 aperture 1440 sorry a 4k
maximum resolution you can record and
also 4k on the dual setup camera set up
on the me on the me 6 so the me 6 has 2
12 megapixel sensors one of them has a
fixed two times optical zoom the other
one has for access optical image
stabilization
it is a Sony IMX
three eight-six Center now in terms of
quality I do have a comparison so you
can check out that video I won't go to
any detail in this video but just to say
that the video quality comes out better
on the Samsung front-facing 8 megapixel
cameras Samsung is the winner there but
when it comes to the still quality
between two of these cameras here
sometimes the me6 can actually take a
more detailed image then my galaxy is
eight as I've proven and that comparison
there and I find that sometimes the
colors just seem to be a little bit
better on than me six so very close in
daylight but overall the all-rounded
cameras have to be this one here the SI
which i think is a lot better now both
of them have waterproof well this is
waterproof and splash proof designs in
hand they feel very good almost
identical because they're both very
solid well put together the fit and
finish on both of them is perfect type-c
ports on the bottom and fast charging
now we've got one loudspeaker on the
Galaxy s8 and we have two loudspeakers
on the Mi 6 so we've got two speaker
that's built into the earpiece there and
if you see my unboxing video you can
hear how that sounds so in terms of
performance both of these similar but
there is a huge difference when it comes
to the rom stability now the me six what
is happening with this is it's crashing
a lot I find that it's often unstable it
wouldn't then want to actually run cpu-z
at at times it crashed and the whole
phone is rebooted itself the UI has also
reset itself so the UI is completely
unstable Bixby or Bix lag as I sometimes
like to call it is stable now it's most
of the time it is quick and snappy
however I've got it in performance mode
because I have a 1440p screen that's
what I paid for and that's what I want
it to run in so sometimes I noticed that
when you go to recent apps that you do
see some lag and it caused Bixby
existence and all this other crap as I
see it that I never wanted on there gets
kind of forced upon
other than that I do feel that as an
improvement over TouchWiz which I used
to call touch leg and then on here we've
got me MIUI8 and the performance of
it is build apart from what I just
mentioned before that it's completely
unstable so both of these aren't really
ideal I would love to see a version of
stock Android on both of these mobile
phones but I guess it's never going to
happen I can keep dreaming there you
know another thing that the music's has
that the dance Samsung Galaxy if it does
not is an IR transmitter at the top so
you're someone that needs to have an IR
transmitter you want to control your air
conditioning various other appliances
then of course that's the only option
they're on to benchmark so they're very
similar here this is Geekbench fourscore
and almost identical no real difference
in this and two two scores almost the
same but the Mi 6 is a little bit
faster there as you can see it gets a
slightly higher score when it comes to
well literally everything there is
slightly higher than my Samsung Galaxy
s8 now the internal storage speed sir
both of them have UFS 2.1 drives and
they are blazing fast I mean look at
these scores the Samsung Galaxy is eight
wins he gets almost 800 sequential read
that's faster than a lot of people's
SATA 3 SSDs 4k random reads and write on
both devices
very good really fast speeds here now on
to 4G speeds both of them get very quick
speeds but for some reason could it has
been the time of the day they were
slightly apart when I did this test you
can see that the Mi 6 gets the faster
speeds here but I would rate them as
equal really when it comes to 4G
performance and the same goes for
wireless performance so my fiber optic
line that I have can get 300 just over
300 megabits per second both of these
Mobile's are able to achieve the full
speed of my line over wireless AC which
is quite rare because it has to have a
very good chipset to be able to do this
most mobiles top out around 200 some get
a lot less now the range on both of
these is also very good I have no
complaints at all with wireless speeds
right so time for a little speed test I
have no apps so both the memory has been
cleared on both of them nothing running
there in the background just to get an
idea of real-world use performance to
see how fast the same apps load up so
calorie camera that seems to be almost
equal maybe faster on the S8 and I saw
Speedtest that popped
up faster on the Mi 6
and look's like that was quicker on a Galaxy
s8 Geekbench for that loaded up faster
on the Mi 6. Asphalt extreme
even though it started slower the galaxy
is a 2-1 that one there okay now I'm
going to go over to recent apps and just
go back to the camera again
don't particularly like doing these speed
tests I don't really believe in them too
much but it is a good idea to see that
they're almost about even on performance
thanks a lot for watching this video
here now if you do want to see the
camera comparison make sure you check
that one out to see which one of these
Mobile's has the best camera performance
oh and forgot to mention as well there's
a huge difference in price between these
of course this cost me at the time of
this review about 500 euros and I bought
this on the 20th of April and that costs
me eight hundred and nine euros the SI
so a lot more expensive so there's a big
difference there when it comes to value
your money this once
of course the ROM is stable should be
quite a decent mobile phone thanks a lot
for watching bye for now
