Should i pick an F5 or pick MI series? ( Im serious rn, need to change my phones)

    Here people are killing themselves because they are missing the slot for the SD card lmao
    We are facing a mid-range the majority of people acquire devices from this branch for the simple fact that in this range it offers decent performance with the 3.5mm jack and the aforementioned slot for the expandable memory

    ¿What's going on?

    Despite facing details that 'supposedly' can ruin an IP68 protection that is incorrect there are phones that perfectly do not present any details.
    Clearly the SD cards are slower than the storage SOLDERED to the motherboard of the device that is inevitable, but let's keep in mind that having more storage at the cost of it is not relevant the performance a priori if you are looking for a balance.
    This happens with desktop computers to have 1tb HDD and 512gb in SSD so as not to wear out with so much reading and writing the main unit in fact is sought is to longevity the useful life of the device, this also happens on mobile phones or maybe they use virtual memory taking into count the speed unlike the RAM? lol
    Only an ornament functionality to damage our storage gratuitously.

    Why without God willing will your mobile be damaged, will your 256gb be saved in the cloud? how much will you have paid for it? that's where reliable SD memory comes into play.
    Unless you open the phone and remove the embedded memory chip and put it in another phone, you'll get your data back, all good, but who does that? is it possible if anything?

    Many users telling me we have our phone as a vault of both applications, images and high quality audio... and others files.
    Not those images that you download from Google or an mp3 at 320kbs we are talking about images in heif or raw quality (8k or 4k) and studio-quality audio such as FLAC 1000kbps and WAV, a quality that Spotify certainly does not reach in the middle of this year 2023.

    I don't see why they eliminate them if high-end mobiles like Sony continue to include them in their premium devices.

    Are the brands not failing the user and his needs? Was it great that this phone included the 3.5 mm Jack but without enough storage? it's worth it?

    In conclusion....
    Apparently we have some frustrated users who want the mid-range to be high-end when it is not, mid-range always mid-range, perhaps they could not acquire that premium high-end that they wanted so much in its maximum configuration, so what they are looking for is to economize by adjusting the market to your high-end needs
    So they are necessarily looking to insert their 'needs' as if they were the ones that a mid-range should have, error.

    Dismissing it as obsolete technologies or having external drives because to top it off a certain user sarcastically recommends the use of USB when most of this range offers usb 2.0 because already being somewhat slow the SD would be worse.

    Maybe they should turn around and look for another comment section in a range that clearly does not carry such attachments (as in a high-end such as the Samsung 23 Ultra, Xiaomi 13 Ultra, Huawei P60 Pro, among others) with ufs 4.0 no SD slot an not 3.5mm Jack because apparently they are willing to pay for cloud services and $200 headphones that sound the same as a wired one.

    Do not fill the comments section just imposing your ideas on others or sarcastic reactions this is not a social network. If they are going to waste time other than on GSMArena.

      The Note 12 Turbo (china) goes up to 16G/1TB, and this maxes out at 12G/256GB? What the heck is Xiaomi thinking? Headphone jack + fast processor + good storage (512GB+ and/or SD) at a reasonable price is a niche that is just begging to be filled, and here they go and shoot themselves in the foot for no reason.

      Xiaomi also really needs to cut it out with the USB 2.0 speeds over USB-C bs that maybe saves them 0.02c per phone.

        Jet , 19 May 2023I see lots of people here moaning about no SD, no buy... No... moreYeah, they're just bashing around.

          Two Questions:
          1. How do I record a call without notification?
          2. How to solve the 10 "always on screen" limitation?

          Thank you.

                  Can someone with the actual phone help to verify does this phone support hdmi alt mode?

                  https://www.wikihow.com/Check-if-My-Phone-Supports-Hdmi-Alt-Mode

                  It is really frustrating that this feature was not stated in the specification. (not only this phone, but all phone)
                  :(

                              How good is the face unlock on Poco phones? I hope there it comes with a case.

                                rpromoditha, 19 May 2023POCO f5 also has VC cooling system and 14 layers of graphit... moreThey market that they have cooling system for it but some ppl do Throttling test on their Poco F5 but it has the Same GIPS to Poco X3 GT since it overheat and decrease it's performance.

                                    Anonymous, 19 May 2023Anyone please tell about motherboard issue briefly Who would know about motherboard issues when the phone being out for public for less then a month. Is there issues with motherboard on Redmi note 12 Turbo that is same phone ?
                                    12 Turbo is Chinese version that was out before F5 global so how would it be possible to have already motherboard issues out about it ?

                                    Also it look more like a issue where the trolls like to spread the issue like it's a biggest issue ever for defaming the brand with other things like ads that can be disabled.
                                    I have not seen it as an mainstream model issue where there are loads of news about it like it happes a lot. That can happen on all brands and for few to happen dont really mean that millions will also have it. that then again common sense tese days is rare sight

                                      Compact phone wen xiaomi?
