Hey, I have a question and it's serious. I'm deciding to buy a new smartphone but I'm still hesitant. Is this phone good for everyday use in terms of payments, social media and gaming? Is the software better than my previous phone that I mentioned earlier and is there an overheating issue?
Both of my smartphones Redmi 5 Plus are dead for some reason and the Poco X3 Pro is still bootlooping since 5 months ago that's why.

I have not got any updates other then the security update 2023.06.01
MIUI is at 14.0.5.0 as MIUI Global 14.0.5
Maybe that is the region you pick in your phone as where you get your updates in the phone.
Where one person is talking it's fake if you dont have that update or something. How do you prove it based on just updates ? I remember with my Redmi note 5 Ai Dual Cam it had face unlock function but only when you change your region to India it was working and as soon as you changed your region back to your country then the function stopped working too

My POCO F5 is genuine, not fake. Yesterday I received via ota update 14.0.6 .0 TMRMIXM (global) with security patch dated 01/08/2023, and the phone during the night only consumed between 5 and 10% of battery. I think this update must have solved the problem that I had with the previous version.

The latest update is v14.0.7.0(TMREUXM) and a security level dated 2023-06-01. By stating that your phone is operating on v15.0.5.0 proves that either your phone is a fake or that you don't actually own this model.

Mine is the global version,
I also close all applications when I'm not using it, I don't leave the charger connected to the phone after charging, I recharge from 15/20% almost always without going up to 100%, between 85 and 95%, so do not understand why it happens! But the fact is that it only started to look like this after the 15.0.5.0 security update, when I had version 13.0.3.0 it didn't happen! Thanks

used this thing for a week or 2 now! running on MIUI 14.0.5 with no issues!
first thing I noticed was how dense and full everything in the box felt including the charger
blazing fast and runs pretty much everything smoothly with very little stuttering if any
camera is not the best out there but is very good, loving the ois!
display is bullet sharp and bright with deep blacks
gets warm but doesn't heat too much
haptic engine is amazing
battery lasts about 10-12 hours of medium/heavy use and charges very quickly
comes with a charger and a clear case in the box
honestly a steal and it having a 3.5 jack was the cherry on top for me!
also the cameras have these sort of holographic rings around them and it's honestly stunning

zcaldeira, 09 Aug 2023Hello
My POCO F5 since it received the update to 14.0.5.0,... moreWhen you install any new update in any android device (starting from android 7), keep the charger plugged even after reaching 100% (do it only once after each update) ... because the new ART optimization will never start until you meet this condition. Otherwise, you will have battery drain !
Search it on www.android.com !

zcaldeira, 09 Aug 2023Hello My POCO F5 since it received the update to 14.0.5.0,... moreYou obviously have a rogue app that is running in the background all the time. I noticed a similar thing a few years ago when I side loaded an app that was loaded with Malware. Now I only use genuine apps from trusted sources.

zcaldeira, 09 Aug 2023Hello
My POCO F5 since it received the update to 14.0.5.0,... moreI have the EU version that come from Hong Kong and i have not got any updates on this phone yet. Other then maybe security update. I have not had any issues like you have and also i dont charge my phone at night as it takes less then 60 minutes to fully charge it so i dont leave the charger on my phone when it's full. And well i mostly start to charge at around 15-20% left on the battery too.
Also i think i have auto update off cause i always wait with updates to see if they have problems before from other people talking about them.
Maybe there are some apps that you leave open that drain the battery ? I have no clue as i am the type who closes all apps all the time when not use the phone.
