hpguru, 23 Jun 2020I hold same opinion. Was excited about this phones two year... moreMy volume buttons are giving trouble, have to press many times to get the volume to start react and show and then to start moving up or down.
Basically these phones are not built to last more than 2 years.

Peter, 04 May 2020Yep, I'm done with xiaomi phones now, the firmware updates ... moreI hold same opinion. Was excited about this phones two years ago, no more Xiaomi. MI A1 is good design phone, but metal is no more straight near volume buttons. No drops. Camera quality is like you said less than average for price. Most photos automatically are under light, too browish. I mean you can set it otherwise, but who has time when you need photo instant. Also it is too big in size. I bought from DNA store A40 from Samsung, it is less weight, less size and bigger screen??? I was amazed when sales person did offer for 169 on it and from case minus 10 percent. I immediately bought for camera quality. He told also Super amoled in that phone, so it may be a reason why my screen on xiaomi was also too little on high brightness. You couldn't see anything on xiaomi when full sun outside even at maxium brightness. This is why I traded for new phone, else than Xiaoimi phones.

AnonD-836132, 30 Apr 2020My hopes for this device getting an A10 update are fading away :(As far as I've known, Xiaomi only support the android version update for 2 years. Our A1 came out with android 7 and it's already had 2 major upgrades to android 8 and 9. So I don't think that we would get android 10.

277 pages of opinions so far, and I Know why: I have this phone 2 years now and it's great for me. If anyone wonders if they should buy it just ask, and if all you need is to check email, socials, and text, then yes this is great.

I think my phone is having problem with RAM management. Before I think I could open at least 3 to 4 apps with each not refreshing.
Now, every time I minimize an app and open another app, the minimized app is refreshed while opening again.
It happens just while using facebook and opera mini.
Does anyone else have this issue?

kib, 03 May 2020everytime I use wifi connection it keeps pauaing every 30 s... moreFor wifi problem specially on android pie there is no solution i researched 2 months nothing worked it turns out that most of android one phone have wifi issue so there is only one way to fix it . Unlock bootloader , flash custom recovery(twrp) backup efs partition(very important) in twrp and flash custom rom from xda only than your wifi will work its granted. This is very serious issue with MI A1 xiaomi knew start and they just dont want to fix it the developers use old modem from android 8 and it works flawlessly. Dont waste your time searching on internet flash custom rom and you are good to go

Regarding dark theme, go to setting, then go to display and at the bottom you would have themes. Click on it and you would get an option of Dark theme. Just select and apply. It will work.
Developers option is not required.

Xiaomi camera quality and photos are terrible compared to the quality on Huawei or Samsung phones, I have checked many xiaomi phones in the stores and camera quality is awful, especially the front camera.
Never thought I would say this but soon I will be back to purchase a Samsung phone and never again purchase a Xiaomi phone.
