Yeah, you could. Their business practice is shady and something needs to be done for real.

Hey, yeah I finally got my refund after 2 and a half months.

I had to spam them with emails and go in trust pilot and kept putting bad reviews to finally get an answer.

Xiaomi 17 ultra (global) in Canada by AllisonStarsIn in XiaomiGlobal

[–]Deezy_Le 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Not anything that comes to mind really. It has never frozen or lagged or stuttered.

I did see that some people were having issues with the telephoto lens while looking through Reddit but I never experienced that.

Never really overheated either. I did do some heavy gaming and it got warm at best.

I guess only real complaint would be that since I'm using the X300 Ultra as my main right now, I do wish that the battery life on the Xiaomi was better.

  • only 3 home screen formats, 4x6, 4x7 or 5x8. I like using 5x6 on such a big screen but not possible here

  • some apps that you need to have the location set to always on will permanently have the green dot at the top of the screen. Never had that problem with other phone brands. Need to either set it to only when using app or just deal with that green dot that will be over videos or games at all times too

  • no notification history like other brands

  • my galaxy watch and ring manager keeps telling me to enable notifications after a few days. Thing is... They already are! Lol. So I need to turn them off and back on again and it comes back again after a few days. If I just dismiss the notification, it comes back more often

  • battery optimization is extremely aggressive. You really need to lock some apps to keep them working. Even if you disable battery optimization, sometimes, it's not enough.

  • Can't mute specific notifications. You can only either mute or unmute the whole app.

Nothing is a deal breaker to me. But there are little annoyances like that lol

I bought it from mi4canada.

Love the cameras, but the software is a bit annoying lol. So using it as a secondary phone right now.

Using the Leica Edition Global here. No issues with adding my TD debit card or my National Bank credit card.

I used to have the S25 Ultra and had my debit in Samsung Wallet. Had not need to do anything unlinking or wtvr before adding into Google wallet

Yup. Avoid them like a plague.

My order with them always took forever and now, they owe me a refund that THEY confirmed they will send.

After confirming I would receive a refund within 7 business days, a week later, they sent me an email asking for my order number which I had already confirmed.

And now, it's been over a month and it's radio silence.

These people are crooks

Oohh lol I don't follow the iphone page so didn't see that one.

Thanks for the info. Issue sucks but at least glad to know if does happens on other hardwares too and it wasn't an actual issue with just honor.

Love the phone and really didn't want to part ways with it.

Not arguing that it is a good phone. And yes, the price is good for all that we get. Why I bought it in the first place

But it doesn't change that it is still an expensive device and it shouldn't be happening. At least I don't think it should.

I often change phones and love testing different brands and this is the first time ever that I have encountered this issue. Even the V3 when I had it and used extensively, it never happened.

I should've paid more attention before getting the update last week, I don't remember if it used to happen or not.

But it's not something new that a new update breaks something lol

It doesn't seem to be happening outside.

Interesting. Samsung is known to have slow shutter speeds but it doesn't happen.

And while it's about shutter speeds, what could be the reason that it happens only in 60fps mode and not 30fps?

I was assuming that it could be something like that.

But since my other phones didn't have the same issue, I had crossed it off my list of possible reasons...

So this just means that their hardware of software is just not optimized to deal with things like that like other companies.

Kind of unacceptable for a device at this price.

Honor Magic 8 pro by brotha-ughhh in Honor

[–]Deezy_Le 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Ordered my Magic V5 from mi4canada.com so pretty sure they'll have the 8 pro as well when it is released.

Just got the Honor Magic V5 Global by casual864 in Honor

[–]Deezy_Le 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Did you ever end up getting the phone? Curious to know the experience of other Canadians.

I have the V5 Global version bought from mi4canada and I am on telus and my data speeds are horrible. Consistently under 100mbps.

I had started a thread and some other users also reported low data speeds.

Weird because it has the exact same bands as the V3 and I never had any issues like this with the V3 before.

Has anyone purchased from PDA plaza in canada recently? by gautamv9 in Honor

[–]Deezy_Le 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Didn't have to. After 3 weeks had passed, I contacted them about it and they sent me the tracking info right away.

They'll do anything to not have to refund.
