Once you get to use Sony or App... moreI don't need to take Xiaomi's word for it. Independent testing has already proven what Xiaomi claimed.
You are just salty because you paid more for your Sony or Apple and got inferior charging capabilities.
And yeah I used the iPhone 11 before switching to Mi 10T Pro. Had the option of buying the Galaxy S20 FE, Xperia 5 II or the iPhone 12... as all of these phones were in my budget of maximum 800 Euros. Opted for the MI 10T Pro at 600€ and spend the rest on TWS.

[deleted post]Overpriced? Get a better job simple as that. Seems to me you are crying Sony is not giving this away to you for $499 but look on the bright side, there are so many Oppos, Vivos, Realmes, Redmes, Narzos that you can afford for $499. You got plenty of options.

[deleted post]Can confirm about Huawei. My older Honor 8 Pro (2017) & Mate 20 (2018) with 4000mah battery + SuperCharge alive till today, with no sign of degradation, at all.
Meanwhile my older Xperia Z1, with very slow charging, have to change the battery 2 times within 3 year....🤦
But do not forget, today's Xperia battery has that Batterycare feature.

Once you get to use Sony or Apple phones then you can comment on the topic of battery degradation. But I'm pretty sure you don't even have the Xiaomi model that you mentioned in the previous post.

Also, everyone citing the Mi 11 ultra, it's barely useable here in the US. It's Sony, Apple, Scamsung, Motorola, OnePlus and cheap phones like TCL and Blu here. That's it. With LG out of the picture, we don't have much else.

[deleted post]That's true.... Sony & Apple last only 300-400 cycles before they start degradation, when paired with 18W-20W charging.
Xiaomi designed batteries last upto 600-800 cycles before starting degradation, when paired with 33W-55W charging.

[deleted post]The thing is that Apple and Samsung also selling overpriced phones, and yet people don't care about it. Brand fanboyism? I can say so.

I mean, I never see such a bizarre thing in my whole life! But the lack of headphone jack really makes me think twice about buying current flagship Samsung phones, and I am an all-wired person.

John, 23 Jun 2021Type-C to 3.5mm converter always tends to wear out the USB ... moreIf that was the case everytime you plug your charger, it would have caused wear and tear.
People have been using converters for 2-3 years on iPhone and others. None had issues.

Service center urged her to buy the pro Max model when she complained about terrible battery life.

It doesn't matter if it's a cheap or an expensive converter, they all possess the same long term reliability problem.

YUKI93, 23 Jun 2021From $1400 or so to just $800 in less than six months? Talk... moreThat's great for consumers. Anyway, let's be honest. If you want to buy a new phone and have two choices: the S21 Ultra for $800 and Xperia 1 III for $1,300. Which phone will you buy? I like the Xperia 1 III, but it's released way too late. Sony needs to improve this. By the time the price of Xperia 1 III starts to drop, the S22 Ultra is about to be released.

They are in the same boat as Sony and Samsung, even worse since they don't provide charger inside the box

YUKI93, 23 Jun 2021No sane people would agree with you. If you really think wi... more"why would wired headphones sell more than wireless headphones" - most people are retrogrades and get used to things they know. A hell of a lot of people still don't realize that wireless headphones exist and they sounds at least the same as wired ones. Life of inconvenience is having wired hanging out of your ears. Wireless earphones bring true freedom and I enjoy it. Only retrogrades and degenerates are buying wired headphones in 2021.
