In order to maintain and perhaps surpass the camera of Xiaomi Mi 8 and Xiaomi MIX 2S, the Xiaomi MIX 3 released this year has been optimized by deep software algorithms, and the level of photography has been greatly improved.

Gizchina News of the week
Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 main camera maintains the same configuration as Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S, with a 12MP (wide angle, Sony IMX363, f/1.8, 1.4μm, 2PD dual-core focus) + 12 MP (telephoto, Samsung S5K3M3+, f/2.4, 1.0 Mm pixels) rear zoom dual camera which support optical zoom, four-axis optical image stabilization, portrait mode, AI scene camera. At the Palace Museum’s press conference on October 25, Lei Jun announced that Xiaomi Mi MIX 3’s DXOMark comprehensive score reached 103 points, ranking amongst the top three in the world. The camera got 108 points while the video shot hit 93 points.
Since the camera quality of Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 mainly comes from software optimization and algorithm upgrade, in theory, Xiaomi Mi 8 and Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S can also obtain the same photo standard. Lei Jun said on Weibo “I have urgently requested Xiaomi R&D team to transplant Xiaomi Mi MIX 3 camera technology to Xiaomi Mi 8 and Xiaomi Mi MIX 2S as soon as possible…”
Hope the Mi8 and Mix2S gets the new software upgrades in the next few months, as Xiaomi does want to play up its newest phone first, before letting the older models also get it.
