          Anonymous, 18 Oct 2023Imagine buying a phone with no card slot Lmfao dummiesA phone manufacturer can sell you a phone with 128Gb of memory for say $500, but sell you the same phone with 256Gb memory for $600, or a 512Gb version for $800. Now, what is the best option for the manufacturer? To sell you a 128Gb phone for $500 with a SD card slot or sell you a 512Gb version for $800? THAT is why all phone manufacturers have phased out SD card slots.

              Spanky, 27 Oct 2023That is a tricky question, because, as you might have seen,... moreWhat does it mean by updating to the latest version and then factory resetting the phone? Doesn't factory resetting result in clearing everything in the phone (including the version of Andriod, OS, Security, etc.) to when the phone is taken out of the box?

                Anonymous, 27 Oct 2023Guys is it recommended to update to the latest version? Pla... moreThat is a tricky question, because, as you might have seen, different regions have different versions of MIUI. Some have 14.0.7.0, others 14.0.8.0 and even if the versions are the same, the security patch can be from different months, so there are differences even among versions with the same numbers.

                But yes, updating a new phone to the latest version and then factory resetting it is a good idea and something which I also do. Otherwise, there could be configuration issues (it happened to me on an older Xiaomi phone) and leftover bloatware from the initial version.

                    MIUI version (For Poco) 14.0.8.0 (TMREUXM)
                    My Redmi Note 11 Pro Plus 5G:
                    MIUI version 14.0.5.0 (TKTEUXM)
                    Obviously there must be some subtle differences in MIUI for the F5 because it states as much, but to answer your question I can confirm that Gestures work in the same manner on both models.

                            Yes i have one or another voice call, that ends at the midle of it without any reason.
                            I feel this issue after the update for 14.0.7, because it does not appear before.
                            Lets wait for another upgrade to solve this

                              Is there are miui 14 version that dont have the choice of swipe gesture ?
                              Maybe some older miui version dont have that as from the times when we still had lots of bezels.

Call drop happened often. Complaint to carrier. They reset my sim connection twice, issue persists. Sent back to Xiaomi Service Centre for warranty claim. The desk guy mentioned that there were already few units brought in with same issue. They will replace the mainboard.

                                  Does this 'miui for poco' actually have the same swipe gestures as the real miui?

                                    Fabrice2023, 24 Oct 2023It looks like the same issue I have on my China Redmi Note ... moreIts officialy sold in india as the poco f5. Theres no chance of anything like that.

Heavy games definitely dont render on native res, but at 720p -800p even on flagships. The screen resolution has nothing do with game perf. And you can always get a slower charger if you're afraid of heating at 100w.
