justasmile, 03 Oct 2023Why would you prefer MIUI to one UI though?Good Question. I've used a lot of Samsung phones for a long time and In 2023 their UI feels outdated to me, they haven't evolved much aesthetically and customization wise the whole ui is beginning to look bland me. First of all, miui has way better animations and gives me a more premium feel when navigating through the UI. Secondly, I find MiUi way more customizable. I don't need third party launchers to change my icons and homes screen to any phones home screen I want my phone to look like, I can change my control centre style, i can change my recents app style, MiUi even let's me change down to my batter indicator bar icon and lockscreen all from the default theme app without any third party app. You can't do much in oneUi. Thirdly, the amount of free fonts and widgets you can get on miui is almost limitless, whereas on every Samsung phone, there is a limited amount of FREE fonts you can get. Also, second space has become an integral feature for me on an android phone. Trust me, Samsungs secure folder doesn't come close to what second space is for privacy. All in all, to me MiUi feels more like what an android phone is supposed to be in 2023 while OneUi just feels like they are playing it safe afraid to make any big changes, kinda like the apple way. And so.. Ever since I switched from my Refurbished problem ridden Samsung Note 10 to A brand new Redmi note 11 pro+ 5G Two years ago, I've just been hooked on MiUi and I've never looked back since.

justasmile, 02 Oct 2023I would recommend buying an old flagship phone instead. ... morei agree with you except one part and that is the battery, the battery of a second hand phone is bad and replacing them some time cost quite a lot

... more*Slightly better camera system ie, more flexibility in lenses, stronger chipset
Samsung does have their excessive watercolor-esque noise reduction processing, don't forget.

What if I don't want to buy an Old Used phone that has followed different people I don't know to different toilets to shit, what if I want a BRAND NEW phone I'd unbox myself out of the box that's AFFORDABLE, but still capable and has most of the modern features I need? 2. What if I personally prefer MiUi to OneUi? What choice should I make now Mr better deal?

I would recommend buying an old flagship phone instead.
Take the Samsung S21+ for example. It can reach android 15 while this can only reach 14, it has a better camera system, better processor and so much more. The only disadvantage is the slower charging, but that’s about it for $250.
All in all, while you do pay slightly more, it’s a much better deal, and there’s no doubt about that.

OTG is still a thing, so you can just plug a USB-C flash drive and backup your stuff regularly (something you should do even with an SD card inside the phone anyways, if you value your data so much). Not as convenient but it is an option.

notafanboy, 30 Sep 2023Because it's time to move on.To move on to what exactly?
SD card is crucial for me. Using SD card not for apps data but for taking pictures and videos, like 1tb SD card is what I use. As a person who uses a lot of space with taking videos, I'm not gonna pay huge money for cloud storage every month. And the internal phone storage is useless for pics and vids - if the phone dies everythig dies, but with SD card if the phone dies I can take the card out. Internal storage is just good enough for installing apps. Apps data is not so much of a problem, most apps have user data saved on their platform/cloud. At the moment, any other option instead of the SD is just a hustle for people who need it. I understand not providing 3.5mm jack anymore as there is usbc adaptors today for anyone who wants that. But it doesn't take much to provide a hybrid slot for SD card. Sorry, but I don't see any excuse for that from the company's end

The review claims that "the system uses 120Hz for the phone's UI and most apps (games included), at least while the user is interacting with the display or there is motion on screen. Then, once it sees a static picture for a couple of seconds, the system drops the refresh rate down to 60Hz to save power."
However this is not the case on mine. If I leave it on default refresh rate behavior it seems to be static at 120hz unless I open YouTube or something like that who plays video. But if I stop interacting with the screen or I watch pictures for a while it doesn't scale down to 60hz to save a but of power. Is anyone else having this issue?

Finally, after a few days of worrying about the temperature of the phone, I found the reason for the increase in temperature.
The normal temperature in standby mode is between 33c and 35c.
If the screen is turned on for about 5 minutes, the temperature rises by about 8 degrees and the battery temperature reaches 39. , 40 degrees and CPU temperature also reaches 44, 45 degrees
Phone: Redmi Note 12 Pro 5G Now the question is, Is this temperature range normal?
Because even with the silicone back cover provided by Xiaomi, you can feel the heat of the phone in your hand. Is the abnormal temperature a criterion for the OverHeating error of the phone, or should we not let it get there and take it in for warranty?

Why does Xiaomi remove the expandable storage option on the 5G version?? That's the only thing that pushes me to buy the 4G instead of the 5G
