        The google pixel software experience is also top notch.
        Better to get Google or Samsung if you care about a good software and timely updates next time

          Its my first android phone and Xiaomi too so is it normal for updates to be soo late and the software to even sux its really bad but the phone is much more than i need tbh its a beast.

A phone manufacturer, not just Xiaomi but ANY phone manufacturer can sell you a phone with 128Gb memory for say $500, or 256Gb for $600 or even 512Gb for $750. Now, why would they sell a 128Gb model for $500 knowing that you can add a SD card costing around $20 to double the memory when they can increase their profits by selling you one with a higher memory and increase their profits. That is why all phone manufacturers are making SD card slots redundant.

There are not a lot of phones in this price range that have microSD card slots in phones. You can find the card slot mostly only in budget phones now or in Sony phones

                    O I forgot. Ther is a nice vid on YouTube by PBK how to disassemble F5. I need similar tools if possible. And I did the same mistake with Poco X3 PRO. I left it in freezer for over 2 days. But the damage was not so severe.

                      Ok:) So this is the 3rd time I left THIS phone in freezer. 1st time was over 12h. 2nd like 4h. And now 1day last week. I'm a heavy drinking gamer. Phone was a little bit hot and i know heat is not good for battery. So I wanted to recharge in cold temperature. I don't use AccuBattery I use much better BatteryOne. But now I noticed battery health fell from 95% to 90% and I need to recharge much more often. I live in EU and I just can't find original battery and tools I any shop. Can someone help me? Much appreciated in advance.

Are you... moreXiaomi doesn't put the microsd slot AND 3.5mm jack on the same model unless it hasa trash chipset like helio or sd695. But don't you love how they remove the sd card slot then proceed to cripple it with USB 2.0 transfer speed?
                        Hope those 1Tb Note 12 Turbo don't have heart attacks lmao.

Notice how the reviewer said "The silver lining is that the phone didn't feel hot at all". You see other phones with metal frame do this too, like nothing 2. Gives around similar throttling and gips number in cpu throttling test.

                                  I am baffled that people here think plastic dissipates heat better than metal. What a cope by plastic phone owners.
                                  Why do you guys think that on every heatsink there's copper/metal and not plastic?
                                  Plastic is classified as an insulator, while all metals are conductors. Insulator = traps heat. Conductors = leads heat away from the source.

                                  Why do you guys think this phone performed terrible at the throttling test with a mid range chip? Because it's a plastic frame.

                                  You don't need to be a rocket scientist to know this.

                                      I am also facing an issue with my Poco F5 from the past 9 days, as soon as I click on the dial button the signals go away. I use Airtel. All other carriers are working fine, have tried with Jio and BSNL and the Airtel SIM is also working fine in other devices. Based on this there is nothing wrong with either the phone or the SIM.

                                      Have tried the troubleshooting steps mentioned below, disabling Wifi calling, VoLTE, nothing seems to be working. He latest update install was for 14.0.6, which arrived after the problem started and hasn't solved anything.

                                      Any solutions?
