Battery mi mix 3 5g - Xiaomi Mi Mix 3 5g Questions & Answers

Hello. The specifications of my mix 3 5g came out and apparently it is the same as the mix 3 except for the capacity of the battery and the processor. My question is this: since the two phones are identical in design, will it be possible to put the battery of mi mix 3 5g in mi mix 3?

All that hassle to get an extra 30 mins battery life.
Unless you live in a cave you could just plug it into a power socket, use a battery bank, or use phone less

I just got a mi mix 3 coming from a mi 8 and battery life so far (4 days of owning it) is not as good as the mi 8, but the wireless charging makes up for it by a long shot. Wireless charger in the car, on my work desk, at home etc it's so fast to just top it up and the xiaomi 20W charger is so cheap I find it a well worth trade off to get rid of the notch.
I just wish there was more we could do with the slide. I have it to open my transit app when opening and would love for it to close it and go back to last app when closing the slide, but with time I guess.

Mi Mix 3 5G is thicker than Mi Mix 3 https://m.gsmarena.com/xiaomi_mi_mix_3_5g-9602.php

Are you just concerned about the battery life for daily use? The simplest way to prolong your battery over a day is to rid yourself of bloat and eliminate apps for things you can simply load up in your web browser. Removing Facebook alone will add more minutes to your battery usage per day than swapping out the battery for the larger one, which also won't fit in the Mi Mix 3.

Wow lol not worth it.
If you need to fit a bigger battery to an already adequate battery to get an extra 1 hour and 15 mins then you need to put the phone down and go out more

yes but if you play a lot, use only 4g, 600mAh are better
for me and for 99.9% of the people in the world it's not acceptable go out without phone

Hi everyone,
I thought I am the only one that wants to steal the battery from mi mix 3 5G and fit into my phone.
the battery isn't great, and if I can replace the battery with a large capacity I will..
it's annoying they removed the wireless charging feature from the 5G version.
if they would made a 4000 mAh battery, everyone was happy.
If someone succeed, please let me know.
All the best!

Maybe a late reply, I did find a 4300mAh battery for the mi mix 3 but with the max charging voltage of 4.4 instead of 4.45 as it is in the 5g model I will try it however in thr 5g model and see how it goes, I will update here if it works and post a link to it.
Update: it does not work the phone will not boot only show the mix logo for a second or two and then turn off

Turn your brightness down. Check background app usage, customize syncing, freeze or uninstall unused apps/app services. Go easy on data usage in areas with a weak signal. Polling kills your phone quick. Get a portable power supply

I changed the original battery for another of 7600mah because it had a short duration. now I arrive at 9 hours of screen with the maximum brightness and Wi-Fi on. The only drawback of changing the battery for a bigger one is that the phone gets fatter

Your phone is running stock firmware, right?
My phone is E330S, korean version of s4 LTE A, hardware is the same. And normally I can get > 3h onscreen without gaming (stock firmware).
If you are running AOSP base rom, I can't tell.
I think you should buy a new battery.

Try using another rom like los 14.1 or 15.1 with greenify and amplify and also use open gapps pico for minimal battery consumption.

Screen on time

It's amazing how much we actually use our phones in a given day, especially when we watch "videos"! Rate this thread to express how many hours of screen-on time you can get on the Xiaomi Mi Mix 2S before depleting the battery.
Then, drop a comment if you have anything to add!
With the latest EU rom (8.4.12), I got around 8.5 hours to do the web surfing through wifi (no video, audio) with the auto brightness about 50%.
Hope it helps.
I lost about 1% battery for every 5.3-5.6 minutes to be precised.

If you use it all the time you get 5-7h SOT easily, however if you don't use it much you get around 4h because (at least for me) there's always some drain on latest china rom. I have to wait until the bootloader is unlocked to test it with xiaomi.eu or global rom

I have problems with latest EU rom (8.4.28) which based on China Dev 8.4.26, my phone become unbearable lag and slow down.
They did something wrong with 8.4.26 kernel....

Try rolling back to 8.4.12, I've heard it's much more polished overall.
BTW, battery life on official Xiaomi Global ROM is beyond fantastic, I'm straight shocked.

Hi, anyone using the global edition, where the unit is not pre-flashed by vendors? just wondering how the battery life is compared to the mix 2, oneplus 6 and p20 pro.
GSM arena currently shows the mix 2s as having really bad battery endurance. but im assuming that was the china rom. Anyone can validate?
You seen the screenshots above your post?
First cycle.. very good. hopefully it will be better. Coming from huawei mate 10 to oneplus 5t to mi mix 2s. Love ips lcd display.
Battery has been great, not much of a mobile gamer so i believe i'm a moderate user. So far between 8 to 9 hours of sot in 35 to 40 hours cycles.

Same here, but I've never got more than 6h SOT with 24h usage
I don't game much, the heaviest use i gave it was the camera. No NFC, bluetooth or gps. Just regular use,like 2 to 3 hours of YouTube, Facebook, watching movie or anime and lots of web browsing get me 8 hours at least on every charge.
Hi, I've had my Mi Mix 2s for a couple months now. I have the 256gb variant, still rocking the chinese rom. Max screen on time I get with the phone is 3 and a half/ 4 hours.
Judging from other people's reviews thats much lower than average. So I'm wondering if anyone has any tips to try improve it? Does the global rom help improve it?
I'm with Global rom miui 10 beta and battery is bad I get max 5h of use and even before with miui 9 it was not great also. Great phone all good except the battery at least for me coming from OnePlus 5 and 5t.
How is the battery lately, in the most recent updates?

Battery Interconector Pin Configuration

As we all know, batteries of a modern smartphone such as the Mi Note 2 are using battery interconnectors plugged on the mainboard to supply power and thermal statistics to the motherboard.
Well one day I had the idea to trash the battery and use a laboratory PSU, and later a custom bcd, to power my phone instead. I know that some of you are thinging "why whould anyone do such a stupid thing?!", don't worry I'll answer this question at the end of this post.
Anyways the problem is that I have no idea about following things:
1. In which order to read the pin config?
1 2 3 or 1 3 5
4 5 6 /\ 2 4 6
2. Which potential needs to be at each pin, sure P+ = 2200mV and P- = -2200mV but I have no idea on what to do with T, ID, and J1.
I couldn't find any documentation for battery interconnectors configurations on Google whatsoever, so I am here asking and hoping you guys are smarter than the world wide web.
That's it, in case you're interested in what the heck am I doing to my phone: The display of my Mi Note 2 broke and I - for various reasons - have already bought a new Mi Mix 2. Having no other use for the phone I completely disassembled it, 3D printed me a custom case to hold the components (at a friend's), and made a custom copper cooling block for the motherboard (using the CNC machine of a local company) which I solded onto an older PC cooler I had laying around. Using a USB-C dongle my phone's hooked up to an display and got some regular USB ports. Now the problem I have is, that I cannot charge my phone while providing display output, so I want to replace the battery with a live power supply.
Here are photos of the problem child
Dude... I have no idea of how solving your problem and I hope you made it somehow. Just wanted to ask if you still around if you have any idea what model of battery is. My own is giving me around 5 hours (3 years old) and I was thinking about buying a new one from China (I know, perfect time to do that). Would you recommend that?
@GSaraza,
hello! I had to change my MI Note 2 Battery. It`s from 2016 Manufactored to a younger one from 2018.
The "old" Battery are not Bad, if you want it write a PM.

No Problems with the Chinese Rom.All Languages on it and the most China Apps can uninstall or deactivate.The Phone works fine,i am very happy with it.And there is no differenz without Lte Band 20 and H+ Internet Speed.With my wifes Phone with Band 20 is 18 Mbps und the Note 10 15 Mbps with same Network and same Tarif.

It will work in Europe with Lte,only Lte Band 20 (800MHz) is not on Board.On that Regions use Hspa.In all cities Lte works without problems with Band 3 and 7.

okay good to know. Thank you for the info!
i'm still not sure whether lack of band 20 is deal breaker for me. I live in a small city and B20 is very probably what's used here.
it's weird that the cheaper Max 3 has it and this beast doesn't
How are you satisfied in general? with camera and battery life? is the super night mode available on it? (the one that was advertised with p20 pro, if you know what i mean)

Hi,
Have the phone for some days now.
Love it and I think that everything about it is simply amazing... Except one thing : battery life.
The stand by drain is stellar. 100% after 6 hours. Can't be better. And that with Display always on turned on !!!
But as soon as display is active and some slightly more demanding apps are running, battery is melting like snowflakes in summer in Florida !
I'd say under these circumstances SoT will be about 9 or 10 hours... Which is what I'd expect from a 4k or 4k2 battery but not a 5000mAh...
It's not bad really, just a little disappointing ???
EDIT : I confirm that battery life is a real disappointment ! I think with medium use you can't get more than 7/8 hours SoT...
This is to be expected from a phone with 4k mAh battery but I hoped for at least 11 hours from a phone with 5k mAh battery
I guess this will not stay and will be replaced with something else probably a Xiaomi mi max 3 : less performance but people reporting up to 17 hours SoT !
And at least some development and living forum... This seems simply dead

I thought I am the only one with this issue...With auto brightness turned on, it's showing that the estimated battery life left is 2 days 20 hours left after a full charge...Also it's taking like 5+ hours to charge the battery to 100% using the stock charger & cable...I saw battery charging tests on YT & I saw people easily managing to fully charge it in about 1:50 hours so I don't know wth is happening in my handset...Mine is completely new, just a few days old...Can be a firmware issue too...I will wait for the next firmware update & see...
Hi,
Good luck...
As far as I am concerned, I have given up the Honor Note 10. Here are the reasons why :
- zero support from manufacturer... a firmware update every 3 months, but probably none anymore after the third or fourth update ;
- Honor's stupid policy about not allowing to unlock the phone ;
- the result : zero developer interest for this device ;
- dead XDA forum (last post except yours was like 52 hours ago) ;
- people in this channel only supporting EMUI and discouraging any attempt to install anything else on the device...
So I switched to the XCiaomi mi Max 3.
Of course, not the same powerhorse as it only has SD 636, but that is enough for my needs...
And easily unlocked ; Xiaomi releasing a new ROM (beta or stable) every week/month ; devs working to port LAOS to it ; nice people in the XDA forum...
So despite this all, if anyone is interested in buying a Honor Note 10 8/128, I'm selling it
Regards.

Make sure you do a factory reset & set the Pie from Scratch like a new phone...If you have installed it over Oreo without a factory reset, the performance may not be that smooth as some left-over files from Oreo may slow-down your system...Doing a factory reset will improve your battery run time...Mine did...
Before making factory reset, don't forget to do a full system backup using HiSuite...

I got the Supercharger in the box when I imported it from China but because of some Firmware issues, I was not getting the Supercharging speed...At first I thought maybe the charger is bad or slow but then I checked it & it was indeed a Supercharger with 5A...Then I thought maybe my Type C cable is bad...I kept trying & trying but was not being able to get SuperCharging out of it...I was also about the buy a spare SuperCharger but the last official 165 Oreo FW solved my issue automatically...Now my stock charger also completes the charge within 2 hours...And shows SuperCharging always, when I plug my phone to the stock charger...
Using the Ampere app from Playstore, I checked the charging amp & it still varies between 2800-3300 Amp though...I may buy the Spare SuperCharger later just to check if I can get 4000-4500+ Amp charging speed which atleast I should be getting from a 5A charger but since the current charger is doing it's job under 2 hours, I am not much bothered about buying another charger...Maybe later...

Official S20+ Exynos Battery Life Thread

Post your Battery usage here. Lets see what we get with these new devices.
Is Bad battery...
Can't say I'm very impressed so far, I switched from a snapdragon s10 plus. Stand by battery drain was never a problem on the s10. I would finish the day with at least 50% battery left. Less than 3 hours screen time and I'm at 40%. And that's running at 60 fps, 1080p. Snapdragon was so much more efficient for me.
Sent from my SM-G985F using Tapatalk
View attachment 4968155
So far, not too impressed either, getting 5.5 hours of screen on time, with no video watching or gaming. Literally bit of instagram, whatsapp, messenger, camera and spotify. This is at 120hz FHD+.
This will honestly be my my ''normal usage'' but still having removed it from charge at 9.30am and after 12 hours on 20% is a bit sad to some point, specially after those youtube videos with 6.5 hours of screen on time playing games and and filming videos and what not... Hopefully they will get a fix for it, this is UK version with the (not so lovely) Exynos...
Coming from an LG G6 lets say battery wise Im having same performance
For me 6 hours with 120hz, that literally destroys the battery, switching back to 60hz you get 1 - 2 hours more....watching youtube is no issue, but as soon as you get to any scrolling or
multitasking it all goes away.. especially with that 120hz, also it's not very efficient in standby, you can go to sleep with 100 percent and wake up with 93 or something like that..
Hopefully they'll get an update
Not awesome battery life, if I wasn't careful I need to charge twice a day
50% left, 2h33 min screen on. I disconnected charger at 12am, woke up at 7am. Lost 5% during the night with 4g on. I was playing a lot today. Screen at 120hz
It's so unbelievable bad... Damn :/
I'm glad i.ordered the Snapdragon version
This is always the case when buying Samsung flagships early. An update comes out a few months after to address the issue.
Hmm, I have to agree with you. Upon further use, I don't think stand by drain is the issue. It seems to be more app optimisation. Have to give it some time for developers to optimise their apps for this processor.

What? No. Samsung has to drop their stupid Exynos.

Don't get me wrong I totally agree with you. There is even speculation that exynos doesn't get the same Sony sensors for the camera. Instead we get Samsung made one's. Totally not cool for sure. I imported a snapdragon s10 last year and it was amazing for battery life profomance. But honestly, I can fully charge this phone in just over an hour. So to say that the shorter battery life is a major problem is just not true imo.

Where did you get your Snapdragon S10 from? I think I'll order from Amazon.com
Which country are you from? Did the Snapdragon work perfectly with your carrier and 4G?

In Australia. Had the china s10 I believe. Everything worked just fine. Although I believe things are a little more complicated when it comes to 5g.

Unless one is next to the wall everyday or likes carrying a power bank that personally I hate, it certainly is a problem.

I understand, but I haven't come even close to needing to charge the phone during the day yet. I'd say I'm losing about 10 to 15% more battery then I did on the s10 so all good for now.

Yes, "usage pattern". I'm charging twice a day with the +, something that I did years back..
This is the only complaint i have so far, battery life. It is not disturbingly awful, but I usually have to charge it in the late afternoon, so I dont run out of juice in the evening (I am getting 3.5 - 4 hours of screen time). Situation is even less annoying since It charges really fast. I am running optimised battery plan, bluetooth, wifi, data on. Other than that it is a beast, I am fully enjoying android freedom over my iphone X. Battery will probably improve with updates though.
First and first full charge, 120hz all time. Let's see next days.
