Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition: here is the endurance and teardown test of JerryRigEverything
The Xiaomi Mi 8 Explorer Edition as you will see in the video did very well compared to the competition. The only downside is the lack of IP6X certification, even if it is offset by a lower price.
But what definitely catches the attention of all of us, is undoubtedly the aesthetics of the device. The red Power button, the glass back cover, which has a transparent finish with black tints on the outside, the decorations of the battery and the motherboard, as we see are purely aesthetic and not functional , but this does not degrade the value of the device at all.
After all, Xiaomi itself had confirmed that all these cosmetic surgeries under the transparent back of the device were not real Hardware, but only aesthetic additions to the device.
