Anonymous, 30 Jan 2023bs info, miui is the best(in xiaomi phones)i have owned MIUI device and it was buggy laggy bloody mess.
like it didn't register first tap when started text something, so you text _smarena, instead of gsmarena, Brave browser with just 5 opened pages froze for 3-4 sec before switching between pages, if i try to select and copy a part of a text from a page all of a sudden i don't see the current page anymore and the page is swapped with entirely different page, etc... i can go on for an hour. it was MIUI 12 global.
MIUI own apps are garbage as well. their "Notes" app has the bug of turning on underline function by itself, so you have to constantly tap it off or half of your note will end up with randomly underlined text, MIUI gallery app is unusable, setting alarms melodies in the "clock" app is pain in the ass and the app wants you to have an account for some reason, "messages" app crashed and froze while deleteing SMS, etc...
overall, i will never use a MIUI device ever again.
it just downright awful.
i assume higher end MIUI devices perhaps getting more attention and optimization from Xiaomi so they have less bugs and more smooth purely because of faster SoCs, otherwise i cannot understand how would anyone with enough self-respect put up with MIUI.

So i got MIUI 14 on this device today and nothing's changed. No new features.
I love this phone's design and how well it works with 0 issues but this is definitely the last Xiaomi i will ever own. I can't deal with such poor software experiences and no new features every single time since MIUI 11! It's always China & India that gets new features but screw Europe i guess.

This one still seems to be a bit expensive. When can we start to see a drop in the price? The 10 lite and 11 lite dropped quite a bit in price. Got the 11 lite 5G a year ago for 200€.

Man, i constantly see good seeming deals on Xiaomis, meaning the hardware is often better than average on each phone. But they seem to screw up on the software side with unbelievable bugs from what i read. Seems like just poor software engineering. And the Android & security update promises are just weak. I'd like to get a Xiaomi, but i really am too scared b/c of the poorly handled software side.
Is this all true generally about Xiaomi phones, or am i getting some "distorted" info..?
I've been going with Samsung for over 10 years now, and while they're not the fastest performing, almost all the(for me) really important stuff for a smartphone is handled really well. Like security & Android updates, durability, reliability. Especially when getting a phone for my 10y/o daughter those qualities matter heavily.
But damn, for myself, I'm really tempted by trying out one of those high-end hardware Xiaomis as they're cheap often, but the sloppy software engineering maybe explains that then(?) 😅..
This is hardly in the right comment section so apologies for this off-topic here, I'm talking about those SD 8 gen 1-Xiaomis mainly, or asking rather.

No OIS is not an issue at all. I don't know just how shaky a hand can be unless you contract some illness or taking pictures/videos while riding a drilling machine. There's never been a case of blurry pic or anything when I took pictures / videos.
But yeah, it will be more reassuring to have OIS like 12T.

We're definitely getting a new MIUI widget feature on global units, i just got ,,app vault" widget and when i placed it on my home screen it became ,,steps" widget in the style just like they presented in MIUI 14.

I have done quick video camera test (Xiaomi 12 lite and Samsung A53), I found a better performance on Samsung A53 5G. Can any one confirm this or is it just me?
