No UFS 3.1, still no periscope camera, no latest version of android 15, no 6000mah battery and 200mp camera is a scam.

    "The handset is easy to use with one hand."

    6.67" is "easy" to use with one hand? Funny. Then you complain that the fingerprint sensor is too low, suggesting that it's not easy to unlock with one hand.

    Xiaomi phones were only appealing when custom ROMs were plentiful. HyperOS is worse than MIUI when it comes to battery life. The old Redmis offered decent cameras at a decent price. We're not seeing that anymore.

      HyperOS is what happens when you listen to venture capitalists who want to cram genAI and ads into everything instead of listening to software engineers and designers who know how to make functional and efficient products

          It's quite shameful to have such low battery life with a very energy efficient Snapdragon 7s Gen 3 with a 5110 mAh battery. It has slightly more battery life than the 2024 model and manages to last 1 hour of gaming... Very disappointing

            "Performance is not competitive, UFS 2.2 storage too"
            As long fans from early days of redmi, never I imagine that performance it is one of the weakness. Redmi well known for a better performance than competitors! And they downgraded the UFS 3.1 to UFS 2.2

              I definitely don't think this thing deserves a 4.0 and a "cautious recommendation". The subpar battery life alone should disqualify it from 99% of people searching for a new phone.
              Looking at the spec sheet alone, I can tell the cameras are dogsh*t. Selfie hasn't advanced even a bit since like the Mi 9 and it seems like 200+8+2 is the new trend, along with 50+8.

                Leave it to Xiaomi to release a 500 euro smartphone with last year's OS, terrible battery life and unoptimized software. Honor 200 Pro and Realme 14 Pro+ absolutely destroy this.

                  "High-density battery with improved performance at sub-zero temps."
                  You sure about it having Si-Ca tech? I think you are confused with chinese and indian versions.

                  Anyway, one of the let downs of the year. Same mediocre battery life, same camera setup, none of the actually upgraded stuff that made it to said Chinese and indian markets.
