    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.

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.

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.

                            I bought the 256 GB/8GB 5G variant in India(Bangalore) and have been facing a peculiar issue of sim slot not being detected every now and then. A reboot of the phone solves the issue momentarily and the problem randomly reappears, sometimes in a week or within a day. I have tried all sorts of hacks like setting network to only 4G and enabling/Disabling VOLTE and Wi-Fi calling but there was no respite. I have approached the Xiaomi service center 3 times but everytime, they just say its a software issue and return the phone with a software refresh. Is anyone facing an issue similar to this? I have even tried changing the Airtel Sim twice and have used both the sim slots but the issue of sim slot not being detected has not gone away. It's not very reassuring to use the phone this way.

                              I have made some additional research.
                              My phone model is the China Redmi Note 12 Turbo (12GB RAM/256GB ROM) but it was flashed by the distributor with the global rom of poco F5 (supposedly same hardware).
                              I found some discussion on xiaomi.eu about this cellular network instability issue as it looks like other owners of the China model have same bug as soon as they use a rom different from the China stock ROM, some users have been lucky with other ROMS (MIUITN and also Elite ROMs), but for now i have not tried to flash another ROM on my phone and continue to use it only with wifi until I have some time to make further research.

                                Anonymous, 24 Oct 2023Let's just hope the phone doesn't have any issues... moreLike you said X3 Pro
                                There was no issues with X4 and not so far with X5
                                Also never was issues with the F series.

                                This comment is just annoying yellow paper defaming troll post.
                                The X3 Pro motherboard issue was specifically only in India market.
                                India market phones are different then China only and Global version that is made for European market. Also there was news that the India Xiaomi CEO was fired cause of the motherboard issue and they made changes in quality control.

                                Also F series is Poco flagship while X series is Poco top middle class.
                                So do you expect all brands have motherboard issues on there flagship phones when there budget or middle class phones have issues ???

                                4 years ago one of my coworker bought Huawei something 300 euro as that time it was like low end of the middle class for Huawei and it also had motherboard issue and went under warranty to replace the motherboard. So will i now expect there flagships also have these issues ? Or other example with Samsung when they made exploding batteries on there flagship and it ended up to a point where that battery technology got banned from phones and were not allowed to be used by users who wanted to travel with a plane as it had high risk that the battery explode in high altitude.

                                So they also fix the issue and ask users to return the phones to replace the batteries.
                                Will we expect also Samsung not learn from past mistakes and still do the same mistakes ?

                                The examples can go on and on with all brands and making these comments that i hope there wont be issues like these are now expected cause one or 2 budget to middle class use to have a issue so now all need to have like it's a feature.

                                        Also there are not yet a lot of bands for 5G
                                        For example in my country only 2 carriers have license to use 5G bands so there is like only 1 for each. 3rd carrier dont even have 5G band to use

                                        Realme can have 500mah more battery but that will bea eaten by that 144hz screedn and higher resolution too. And 100W over 67W charging speed probably only saves you 10 minutes on charging while heats the phone up a lot more too
