        Wow... I mean I know it's an entry level Redmi but wth man micro USB!? Even Samsung's LAST 3 bottom end A0x phones went Type C?

        Xiaomi is really getting big headed w/ playing price points lately.

            She uses it since 4 years without any problem!

            Is it a bad choice for the planet?
            In my opinion, a far better one than the one from people who spend 1500€ each year!

                The design is very nice, but I don't like the downgrade of the processor, at least a Dimensity 700 or a Snapdragon 4 Gen 1, microUSB port seriously in 2023 and with eMMC 5.1, this should be Redmi 9C+ xD and without Android 13 and nothing of MIUI 14 pre-installed.

                          At that time only redmi 9 offer Cortex A75, but its 2022 now plenty of phones with Unisoc T606, 616 and these helio lowend at this price point, so this phone isnt unique anymore, am not sure how much sd 4 gen 1 cost, they need something with cortex A78 to give them edge over competition.

                            Hemedans, 31 Dec 2022Helio G85 isnt that upgrade of G80, Redmi 9 already had G80... moreFHD is not a selling point for this target audience..

                            The lower the price of the phone the more detached from specs the target audience becomes

                            And of course availability especially if it is offline

                              "big day, microUSB still exists even 2023 whatever 2025 or 2026."

                              Type-C gang

                                It skips 11C, but reverts the USB-C of Redmi 10C to MicroUSB again in 12C. HELP? The rest of the specs, well, it's okay, I guess?

                                    a very good budget phone.
                                    good see at least there is one brand that is trying deliver something good for the people who can not buy even a lower midrange phone. And there are millions of people like this. So, again this is great to see Xiaomi still care for this level.

                                      Is so disappointing.

                                      Their flagship dont have microsd.
                                      Their middle following suit to remove microsd.
                                      Soon their lower end will doing same.

                                      But funny, they still using usb 2.0 but afford to using a lot ic for huge wattage on charging department.

                                      Using huge internal for excuse to remove microsd, but didnt tell is using TLC or QLC. Based on many dead case on poco, im pretty sure they used QLC. So is so pointless have huge internal, but the durability is pretty bad.

                                      Is just make samsung s20 fe, a52s, realme speed edition with microsd is more worthed than their claimed as flagship killer. And rightnow they just boasted pointless thing like huge dimensions of photo result, huge voltage on charging, and virtual memory.

                                      If they still insisted to remove microsd, so is not worthed anymore to stay using xiaomi after 10 year i dedicated to only bought xiaomi phone.
