I also use this ROM in my MI 5 and i am extremely satisfied with stability of this great ROM.
      You will get all the pixel features like boot animation, launcher, google camera (inbuilt), live wallpaper etc with this ROM. This ROM has less customisation features than any other ROM available there. But in terms of performance and stability this is the best ROM I have ever used. And also, you will get latest Android 10 with latest security patch.

        Anonymous, 06 Aug 2019How's the camera performance in Lineage?The pixel experience rom is best for Xiaomi Mi 5 because this ROM gets inbuilt Google Camera which works better than any gcam app available there. And also you will get very stable rom with android 10.

            now 2 years and 7 months old for my phone .Always uses with a screen protector and a back cover. still not even a single scratch. brand new condition. if i can i would put photos here. battery enough for the entire day yet. i will hope to use this phone another 2 years and get a Xiaomi phone again.

              Wild1, 18 Jul 2019Best phone ever.Agree, best phone I've ever used. Great camera, great battery life , it gave me 7 hours of continues even after 2.5 years of use. Great community, and have a bunch of excellent developer. even now there is a 4.4 kernel working for mi5.
              The only minus might be no IP rating.
              The only phone i didn't regret to buy.

                            you can try this tool and see for yourself:

                              Very good size and spec phone. only problem is MIUI, keep that on marshmallow MIUI 8.1.4, anything above for MIUI for mi5 is slow. otherwise just use lineage OS officially supported OS and that will be like new phone.

                                    Problems with RAM. i am writing on messenger and i want to open the calculator. while i had opened a page on google browser before. in some cases randomly the messenger will just vanish while im writing. apps close automatically or work very very slow. sometimes i press something and i wait some seconds for it to open. if i press to open an app by mistake i start swearing. because i have to wait for it to open and then i press the close button and then have to wait for it to close again. its very annoying. i had these problems since i bought it new in july 2017. im going to get another phone. but i want to give this to my dad, thats why i was wondering if you had any suggestions on how to make it slightly better. my dad uses phones only for youtube and calls. anyone had this issue? any solutions? thanks
