Anyway is 3 years budget phone & it's time to move on.

You should be thankful since the phone still gets monthly security patch, no other phone will give such long term updates.

      We were cheated on and given only one year of android version upgrades instead of two. Imagine what would happen if I stopped paying for my phone after paying only half the price. Why are big companies allowed this without consequences? Why nobody run an article about it?
      Don't buy Xiaomi and spread word about what they did.

Android 10 came within 2 years. So where is the update? Instead of 2 years of promised updates we got only one. How about next time Xiaomi release phone with two versions old Android, then update it next day to current and call it a day because 'you got your two major updates'.

                                        My first and last Xiaomi phone. I have been dealing with battery issues for months, it drains too quickly. It started in 2019 but there was an update afterwards that fixed it but now i have been facing the same issue for 2 months, I have given up on the idea of a fix. There is also an issue with the fingerprint sensor, it's like it became alive and its mission is pissing me off.
                                        The phone itself is good but their (lack of) support is terrible.
