The phone needed a factory reset at about 1,5 years of ownership since it became unusable but that's probably because I have developer options on and side-load my own apps and I haven't seen anyone else complain about the same thing

For those outside the US who wonder, Xiaomi's MIUI shares a lot of feature with Huawei's EMUI. I've seen quite a few mentions of people managing to get google services on Huawei phone, which you might want if software support is one of your main worries. I have a p30 lite, which was a mid-range phone from 2019, and it's still getting software updates. Not just security and minor updates but also major updates. Over the time I owned the phone I got from EMUI 10 to EMUI 12. It wasn't after the rest of their models too, got the 12 before any mention of that version's release was done online, there were only mentions of that update being announced a few weeks back.

You constructed your comment in a way that could suggest that xiaomi miui do not have google services which is not true Btw. You can get security updates, major updates for your android skin (I mean for example miui) and also major updates for android itself. So uou can get updates for android skin but not for android itself sometimes (but I don't know how does huawei makes it and.maybe they are more synhronized).

[@Exilum]

@@Daniel_VolumeDown What I said was that recent huawei phones do not come with google services. EMUI's major versions also do not follow android versions exactly.

My theory is that most chinese brands are all under the wing of the same company, or rather under the same government. So many things seem to be shared between these devices. Poco, Xiaomi, Huawei, Oneplus, Oppo, may all be all the same... Another thing from China that also took over everything is, TikTok, which uses AI to completely rewire your brain. All these Chinese platforms and phone brands, are all built for one true purpose, to collect all the data of every citizen in this planet. There is a reason why the USA decided to ban Huawei, ZTE, Tiktok, and others. China, is slowly planning to take over the world, and they already have control over way too many things This is why, i would never trust xiaomi or huawei or any of these chinese phones, even if they were given away for free, which they kinda are now

[@Almighty_Flat_Earth]

Why the hell people buy phones without a headphone jack and a memory slot? What's the point? What kind of stupid logic is this? Arrogant corporate tyrants are not giving us the basic features , what the f are they thinking? Why no one protest against these missing features? What kind of slavery is this? Are people dumb? If we unite and don't buy phones without headphone jack, then tyrants will have no choice but to include both jack and card slot. What's wrong with you people? These are mandatory essential features every phone must have.

1:05 such a weird thing to be surprised about. Google Apple and Samsung care about longevity and they want the battery to last for 4+ years. The ultra fast charging is just another thing that makes the phone unusable in one year because of the battery health. Obviously they include it so that you use it and have to replace the battery every year, or buy a new phone. This is not a feature that I would praise.

7:50 Toss GCam on that and tune it up properly and that will be a very VERY different story. I have 8.4 running on my Note 10 Pro and all the cameras went from ok at best to destructively good.

As a user for about a year of Xiaomi 11T pro 5G with the 120W charger ( 0 - 100 ) in 18 minutes, the whole idea of dual battery setup is great and I can tell you after daily charging maybe few times twice per day the battery level still at 100% on capacity.

@@Dark.Syndicate I wont be buying nothing right now, probably next year, and I agree on the software part, but performance wise Poco absolutely smashes, the F4 Pro while having a decent camera, great battery and display allows you to max out settings in most of the games, and maybe I'm not the most hardcore gamer but i do play a lot so its important to me that the phone is still doing fine after like 1.5 hours of gaming.
