      Anonymous, 01 Mar 2024Which apps are you talking about? And what hidden trackers?This is from the Chinese hyperos ROM.

      A small number of ads will be shown in some system apps, including the following:

      Weather
      Calendar
      Security
      Input methods
      Downloads
      Package installer
      Home screen folders
      Wallpaper Carousel
      App vault
      Red envelope assistant
      Mi AI

      I have turned the ads off in the settings but there are still some Xiaomi apps that aren't listed above that still have 5 second ads every time you launch the app. For example

      Mivideo
      Getapps (Xiaomi's app store)
      The Xiaomi Games app
      Xiaomi music



      Never used a global ROM though so that may be different

                I thought the Xiaomi 13 was the latest model to come out (in the UK anyway) now we have the Xiaomi 14.
                I wanted a good phone camera not sure if go for a renewed Samsung S21 ultra or Xiaomi model for its price

                      I see that you’re not mentioning colour accuracy of the display of the phones in your reviews recently. We photographers need colour accurate displays to edit photos on the go. Kindly reintroduce colour accuracy.

                              Anonymous, 27 Feb 2024Could somebody confirm issues with advertisement and bloatw... moreYou should check out reviews by Techtablets. He is critical to ads on Xiaomi phones and will always point out if there are ads in the phones he reviewed. He didnt find ads in his Chinese 14 Pro, but he pointed out the bloatware that thankfully can be uninstalled. He will review the global 14 soon and I believe the global models wont have ads as well.

                              Dont listen to the naysayers here who like to keep repeating "all Xiaomi phones have ads". Personally, I never encountered ads on my Mi 11T. It also got the promised 3 OS updates, so i would add Xiaomi's policy of 4 OS updates for the 14 series is not just empty promise.

In my country, the S23 Ultra was launched at €1106 in February 2023 and Samsung was selling it at €813 brand new in November 2023.

                                  A used S23 Ultra 256gb in good condition is now available at around €680 while 14 Pro Max 256gb around €820. That means Samsung has slightly better resale value than other Android brands, but still depreciate faster than main rival Apple.

                                      That camera box looks horrible. There is no need for it to be so big.

                                        Those human subject photos don't do George any favors. Amongst the worst I've seen at least from any high end device. The portrait mode is particularly poor, being soft, lacking in details and too high on contrast. I suppose human subject photos are one of the hardest things to get right on a smartphone camera but would expect better than this. Compared to something like a realme gt5 pro even it's like a night and day difference
