        Anyone else have the problem with to loud/inconsistent loudness of sound during phone call, even on the lowest volume setting? Everyone around me can hear person on the other side, so there is no privacy.

          One of the best midranger. If you ignore miui mess, this phone has flagship level performance, average midrange camera, 120hz hdr10, headphone jack, stereo, ufs 3.1(rare for midrange), GG6, ip53, and 4k EIS recording(rare). It only lacks amoled screen but seeing x4 nfc will have an amoled screen, I think x4 pro will also have amoled

            I consider buying on but more than expected dead motherboard comments are a good reason not to get one.

                      Chixby, 17 Dec 2021This is exactly why i never buy a xiaomi device again palMine is Mi 11 Lite 4G. Yes, just like X3 Pro it stands out among the other competitors, however, there's a huge problem. My unit has screen issues. To be more detailed, the screen has black crush, blue-tinted and the worse, slow pixel responding. It's the same case for my previous Redmi Note 5 and Note 8 Pro, both suffering from buggy UI and weak network connection. I decided to jump to other brands soon after I discovered the issues and what I can conclude per my 3-year experience with Xiaomi is that, great value but low quality.

                        Maybe wherever possible GSM Arena could include the battery health readings as well. I read that it was possible to get this info in MIUI without needing root, recently. Battery capacity and cycle count. Newer Xiaomi devices don't seem to fare as well in this regard compared to the older, less expensive Redmi devices even. Especially in light of the exorbitant price hikes of replacement batteries at least in India. Battery for F1 now costs $87!

                          Frankiman, 17 Dec 2021but the comments are worse in newpipeNewpipe is for watching videos not commenting.

                            gringo, 17 Dec 2021widevine dropped to L3 because you downgraded your firmware... morethen something was mish-mashed before sale as i bought it as new with global rom which runs on latest version... hmm

                              nanoprog, 17 Dec 2021i know that widevine issues are mostly (if not completely) ... morefor custom A12 roms, widevine are still in L3 because there is no official A12 (blobs) yet !

                              i'm on A11 lineageos 18.1 ... widevine is L1 !

                                nanoprog, 17 Dec 2021i know that widevine issues are mostly (if not completely) ... morewidevine dropped to L3 because you downgraded your firmware !!!

                                update again to the latest "official" miui for your region (not chinese firmware and not xiaomi.eu)

                                then there is an option to update your widevine certificate in security options > payment (you must set a fingerprint there to enable that option)

                                after updating you widevine certificate, you can still flash any custom rom

                                NEVER DOWNGRADE A FIRMWARE (L1 AUTOMATICALLY SWITCH TO L3)

                                  gringo, 17 Dec 2021Install a custom rom like LineageoOS or Pixel Experience : ... morei know that widevine issues are mostly (if not completely) hw only solvable (except back then with note8pro or poco F1 where it was enabled somehow with a later update) - but do any/all custom roms share the SD only resolution limitation in NetFlix too?

                                  as mine shows as L3 which is quite a bummer

                                        "we do a lot of scrolling in YouTube, for example, in the feed, and this could very much benefit from 120 Hz"

                                        This is why I never use official YouTube app.
