Love the look of the Mi Mix 2 and wondered how MIUI compares as the software experience is more important, otherwise I will have to stump up the extra to get a Mate 10

I don't have much hands on but MIUI should be the more "Asian" of the two. EMUI wasn't too loved by many but has matured over the years. MIUI is still a generation or two behind. Which may or may bother you, I personally could probably survive the UI as long as the hardware delivers

Said EMUI when I meant MIUI. Corrected that.

I used nova anyway, it's the notification shade and menu systems that really concern me as they are what's left of the UI when a launcher is used over the top.

Good point. Is the notification shade that much different? Menu systems are less important to me as I don't use it frequently

I've heard good stuff about miui. Never tried it though. The MI Mix 2 sure is beautiful. Supposed to be very customizable like emui. There are videos in YouTube vs between them two
