I received the 1.0.5.0 build Global version (Stable Beta even though I'm not a beta tester) a few days ago, installed it OTA, everything seems good, no bugs as far as I can tell. Battery life seems to have improved a bit. The split screen functionality still doesn't work when using a third-party launcher, but that's what we've come to expect from Xiaomi when it comes to supporting third-party launchers. Other than that, the new build is smooth and resposive.

I am having to avoid using BT which is a real pain and I am very angry with Xiaomi for releasing H-OS with major faults.

        Hello guys the reason im posting this bc i haven't received any response from other platforms so i wanna ask about why hyperos isn't released yet in the middle east region do i have to do something so i get it like i've been waiting but nothing there. ( I am new to android and especially poco phones)

              Anonymous, 10 May 2024OUCH! https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/27767108/android-xiaom... more(Also, I find it really hilarious that the article's title avoids mentioning Xiaomi, instead they say "major Android brand". They're appealing to the lowest common denominator. Stupid to assume most of their readers don't know Xiaomi.)

                Luckily this phone has a thriving custom ROM community with plenty of nice ROMs to choose from. I'd highly suggest unlocking the bootloader and installing an AOSP ROM.

                  Anonymous, 10 May 2024OUCH! https://www.thesun.co.uk/tech/27767108/android-xiaom... moreOk but what does it have to do with this phone specifically?

                    This is actually a great phone right now.

                    No, scratch that, this is THE best bang-for-your-buck phone you can get right now on Aliexpress. It's super cheap, US $215!!! Holy hell. Imagine paying that low of a price for the SD7+G2, which performs almost like an 8 Gen 1.

                    I haven't seen such a good priced phone in a long time.

                    NOTE: If you search Redmi Note 12 Turbo, you will get better prices. This phone under the Poco brand is more expensive.

A reboot usually, and I mean usually, clears it, so I usually end up powering it on and rebooting immediately.
                      Bluetooth connections have become extremely unreliable as well, both with my car and a couple of other devices.
                      I would like to ditch this HyperOS and roll back, back that seems impossible.

Don't compare to lower specs Samsung, just call out all the OPPO/Vivo/Oneplus/Realme/iQoo/Honor/Huawei at this price point for similar specs smartphone, which is doing better?
                        Of course, I understand all these upgrade has a price to pay, we only can hope these getting better, start with Xiaomi 13T?

                              POCO F5 comments: I play my games with highest graphic many hous until my phone has died. Cannot stand POCO problem.
                              Other similar priced smartphone comment: I came from some lower grade phone, this phone is very good, no lag, my last cheap smartphone was a trash, I don't play game.

Of course performance wise, it is already outdated where most game is not optimise for old chipset anymore, and newer game get more and more demanding. But if don't mind for being outdated, it is still very capable. For better choice, still stick with POCO F series.
