Modern Replacement for Xiaomi Mi Max 3?

[SlackAssassin]

Hey guys, I'm struggling to find a good replacement for my old Xiaomi Mi Max 3. I'm currently using a Xiaomi Mi 11 something or other, and while I like it, I miss the screen size of the old Mi Max 3.

They have discontinued that series but I'm hoping to find a new phone that's similar in some ways:

- Relatively cheap (under $800 AUD or so, I'm lenient)

- Large screen

- Higher refresh rate (90hz+)

- Decent speakers would be nice, I don't use headphones in bed

- Good battery life (Mi Max had 5500 mAh, so around there)

- Something with a bit of a lifespan, I'll use it for at least 3 years

- Android (I'm used to MiUI but any android will do, not a fan of iPhones)

 

I don't care about the camera at all, and I won't do any gaming or heavy use whatsoever. I only use my phone to scroll instragram and watch shows in bed, and listen to music.

 

Hopefully there are people out there who appreciate a good phablet and have some suggestions for me to check out.

Thanks in advance for the help!

Honor magic 5 lite (or Honor x9a in some regions) meets all your requirements!

There doesn't appear to be anything remotely similar to the Mi Max in terms of dimensions that I am aware of unfortunately

 

176.2 x 87.4 x 8 mm, it is much wider than ones you get nowadays.
