    The only extra things you get is FM Radio Widget (if you need it).

    Among the drawback you get.
    1.) Lots of bloatware, eg. File Go,Google Lens, Digital Well-being, Action Service, this apps can't be delete, at most you can only disable it.
    2.) Google bar are now at the bottom of the screen, which cause problem as you frequently tap the Google Bar accidentally when you tap call, contact, or whatever apps a the bottom of your screen.
    3.) You location are constantly monitored, weather apps become permanent stuck on your screen.
    4.) You can no longer once touch close all apps as the active apps are in horizon now.
    5.) GPS signal once again become weak & inaccurate.
    6.) Auto reboot issue comes back again, I already experienced 3 reboot in 2 days.

        does anyone else have problem with brightness settings after pie update? It seems I've to set brightness to higher level than before to get the brightness I want.
        Also, I hope they add the option to disable the bottom search bar.
        Other than that, very satisfied with Pie update.
        Battery life seems to be good now than before.

          Any more good points or precautions about new update ...I am cautious, because I have received the Android Pie notification update, but because of not so good experience of 31-12-2017 update about Android 8.0 , when I lost my all SMS messages from my records, I am in a flux whether to update or not ...
          any suggestions...

                Xiaomi will prompt the user on the update, this is done in batches, so that user don't clogged up the server all at once.

                So when this fellow try to cheat the system by doing factory reset & clear cache, now Xiaomi push his update to later batch.. this is instant Karma...lol

                                        It seem like the phone has some issue with VoLTE, here in my country only 1 telco has VOLTE & user of that particular Telco is complaining about 4G reception after Pie update.
