Your device's size has a huge influence on how easy it is to hold or to operate with one hand. The smaller your device's width, the easier it will be to hold, but you'll also need to take device thickness into account. And when the length and width are both smaller, you'll find that it's much easier for you to operate it one-handed, since your fingers will find it much easier to reach where you want them to. On the other hand, longer lengths and wider widths might lead to devices that are hard to carry in your pocket, bulky even when you keep them in your bag, and all around less portable.

One indication of how well your forward facing camera (the camera on the same side as your device's screen) performs is how many megapixels it has. More megapixels means you'll be able to take photos with sharper detail, that still look amazing printed out.

The forward-facing camera on the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7 has a resolution of 13 MP. The Xiaomi Mi 9's has 20 MP. Comparing the front-facing camera performance, the number of pixels of the front-facing camera on the Xiaomi Mi 9 is higher than the Xiaomi Redmi Note 7, with a difference of approximately 7 MP.
