      I bought a Note 11 a couple months ago, to replace my Pocophone F1 which I'm going to use as a testbed for alternative ROMs and also the battery was starting to show its age. The Pocophone F1 still is a fantastic phone, great performance, MIUI 11.0.3 has it's flaws and is somewhat invasive in some Xiaomi apps but was fine in general, only needed some tweaking to notifications and battery settings. Did not upgrade to MIUI 12.0.3 due to horror stories about being extremely buggy in beggining and decided not to anyway.

      Also use a Redmi 8A as a work phone, with MIUI 11.0.3, which has quite some different settings. Also did not upgrade it, it works ok as it is. I have problems I can't solve with notifications for Gmail and Google Chat (which I use, company uses Google services), being delayed/random.

      I'm glad I didn't upgrade these phones software. The MIUI 13 of the Note 11 is a joke. Bloated with lots of apps, luckily quite a few can be uninstalled. Extremely invasive system apps, always wanting me to accept Xiaomi terms of privacy or login with Xiaomi accounts. Despite being in the EU and being forbidden here, still get ads after using Cleaner... Couldn't get SMS in time or even not at all, kept 3rd party app services sleeping or killed them, extremely aggressive with battery saving killing apps all the time. Notifications of 3rd party apps I use only when it pleased or only when opening the app... or not at all. What a total joke. Replaced quite a few apps. Had to change a lot of settings about battery and notifications just to make it usable. I only bought it because of existing a couple custom ROMs I can change to (LineageOS and Pixel Experience).

      It is my last Xiaomi. No more.

Now they are in the price range of 350 euro as top end middle class hardware. These are not even flagship killers to expect them to have flagship chips that Dimensity 1300 was meant to be on it's time of release

                      kramark, 27 Oct 2022No more microSD card slot for the Redmi Notes?! That sucks.MicroSD were abscent in all Chinese Redmi Note 11 series excluding Redmi Note 11E, Note 11E Pro and Note 11R. And global Redmi Note 11 Pro+ has MicroSD support when Chinese not so global versions could it support.

                        LV426, 27 Oct 2022No suprise if Pro with imax766 make better photos than Pro+... moreWe will see since the ISP is going to be same in both.

                                    Xiaomi is getting worse and worse... no micro sd, and what is even worse - again a bad 8 mp ultra wide + an even worse 2mp sensor. On top you get also bloated MIUI. WTF are you doing Xiaomi? You went from a great innovator, especially for the price, to getting worse and worse. What a shame, time to move to another company.

                                      Main cameras look like an improvement on paper and are good for this midrange category. Hopefully they give eis at 4k 30fps this time though. No eis at 4k like on the note 11 pro kind of ruins the video. Interested to see whether the hpx or imx766 performs better. Goin to check them out at the weekend

                                        No microsd slot, no buy!
