Luxor, 02 Dec 2019Sales are declining for a reason. Xiaomi known for selling ... moreBeen having my Xiaomi Mi 6 for over 2 years now, battery life is still pretty decent.
And that applies to the rest of the phones quality as well.
So batterylife isn't degrading any faster than in other phones I owned.

    MasEnha, 30 Nov 2019Yeah, until somebody got an accident and the scooters banne... moreThey got banned in Norway because they were driving to fast. XD (just by a little but I think the new models may come with a lower max speed may be sold later)

      Luxor, 02 Dec 2019Sales are declining for a reason. Xiaomi known for selling ... moreProbably. They are not known for battery life champs.
      Also, even for a 4000mah battery device it doesn't have longevity unlike Huawei's mid-range phones, not because of UI, but maybe because of battery quality like you said.

        Geric.770, 30 Nov 2019I can definitely say that their Redmi series lineups are no... moreSales are declining for a reason. Xiaomi known for selling their phones cheaper than competitor but you never know where they cut cost. Probably using low quality battery. Once customers get a bad phone from Xiaomi they will never want to buy it again.

                Masad, 30 Nov 2019Their phones are no longer the cheapest with the best specs... moreI went with Realme 3 Pro & Tecno Pouvoir 3 Plus! :3

                  Khuan , 29 Nov 2019Xiaomi Redmi smartphone with MIUI 10 have bad battery perfo... moreHi, this is true. I have mi 9t. After the update i encountered the same problem. Faster charging, faster draining.. Before the update my phone lasts a day and half. I use my phone for gaming (mobile l*g*nds), a lot of browsing, calls and netfl*xing.
                  Really hope they'll fix it.

                      Companies will usually try to sell more expensive stuff when this happens

                      Which presents a very good opportunity for other phone makers to snatch up the market whose expectations got betrayed

                        This is actually a very positive piece of news for Xiaomi! IoT was their intended big picture, not just smartphone.

                          Khuan , 29 Nov 2019Xiaomi Redmi smartphone with MIUI 10 have bad battery perfo... moreCould be cable issue. Had used the note 5 pro and impact for over a year and k20 pro the last few months, never encountered charging speed issue. Also if you are using cheap 3rd party charger with multi port, there is high tendency to overheat and damage the charger.

                            Khuan , 29 Nov 2019Xiaomi Redmi smartphone with MIUI 10 have bad battery perfo... moreMIUI 11 update fixed the charging speed, however the battery life is still not.

                              I can definitely say that their Redmi series lineups are not doing great because of battery life issues.

                              Heck, my Redmi Note 8 doesn't last longer unlike last 2 weeks! Hopea for the battery issue fixes.

                                Xiaomi is selling those electric scooters like hot cakes...there are hundreds of them in my city..

                                  Xiaomi Redmi smartphone with MIUI 10 have bad battery performance.

                                  From 100% to 95%, it dropped within 20 minutes even though the phone is new.

                                  At the beginning, the charging speed is quite fast. But after using for 2 months, the speed suddenly becomes slow. Reasons unknown.
