    A purchase yesterday, coming from Samsung phone. No bloatware, no double apps, some most Xiaomi apps can be deleted and I did. So only one Xiaomi app is Feedback. No other bloatware, new Android update right away from the box.

    Amazing, no more double-apps for mail, music, browserand gallery... my last Samsung it was. Cahrge time super fast, it's like having no charge time at all. Google Duo preinstalled app is bad selection, would Hangouts be better? Disabled and replaced with Hangouts. It took 6MB disabled, so no problems and just one app - it's amazing.

    I only installed Fit and Hangouts, all else was what I needed. Play Music, Play Movies, Chrome, Photos... Preinstalled Google apps only 21. Gorgeously simple app list - no bloatware, no ads, nothing - just apps you need. The best phone.

    Camera is good, but it could be more detailed in colours.

Xiaomi has confirmed that ... moreNot exited at all, each update would bring more issue, the previous Oreo 8.0 update bring so many issues & it took months to solve, luckily this is only my secondary phone, no more Xiaomi phone for me that's for sure

            Would go for Nokia once X6 @ 6.1 plus launch in my country.

                    I have GPS issue during Oreo 8.0 update during late 2017, i sent my phone to the Service Centre only to be told to wait for next update, eventually it took 5 more update for a periods of 4.5 months to solve the issue.

                      If you didn't update the 1st Oreo 8.1 then you be getting the "fix" 2nd Oreo update.

                      But most probably you get the LED light doesn't blink when there is Incoming message problem.

                      GPS problem was during Oreo 8.0 update, it last a few months from December 2017 until April 2018

                            Xiaomi can always delay the update, or claim the hardware can't supports Android Pie.

                                    I rather pay marginally more & get a much better Nokia 7 plus with SD card slot & 3.5mm audio jack, not forgetting a bigger battery, most of all top notch build quality.

As for the led notification; it does not blink, but it lights up. This is fine by me. I am using lawnchair launcher and not the std launcher 3 ; u need to explore the settings in the lawnchair to set things up. Audio works 100 % thru speaker and headset from razer. I am happy with the phone, but will consider upgrade to a Mi A 2.
