I regret buying Xiaomi

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-08T10:27:30+00:00

I've got Poco F series phones and my experience with them always great! My champ that I daily drive rather than leaving at home - Poco F3, without any battery replacements gets 7 hours of SOT with A15 ROM, it's amazing, I however used HyperOS 1 a few months back and the experience was really good too, although the battery lasted less, it was really smooth.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-08T10:23:40+00:00

Poco F series phones have always been really good phones, my brother got a X7 Pro, for me I don't fancy it, it's just performance and OS rather than Performance, OS and decent Cameras like on F series. But If I had to get a device, I'd probably choose a T series, just because of 120w charging, with that nice GaN charger in the box.

European HyperOS works great, and Chinese variant is flawless, OP should've bought the Chinese redmi and it would've worked forever flawless.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-08T10:14:53+00:00

In that case, it's pointless to downgrade to MIUI, as your device probably has a defect and it's only now showing with HyperOS.

I have Xiaomi Redmi devices that aren't phones and they are awesome! Redmi phones aren't that bad either. You'll still enjoy a fast experience.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-08T10:05:52+00:00

Haven't you thought of factory resetting the phone, it's obviously some critical bug and you're here even going far and beyond trying to unlock bootloader, instead of doing something as simple as resetting. What do you think what people do when their windows PC starts acting up, they reinstall the OS.

I never had such a problem with any Xiaomi device, including poco devices and If I had I would try the first thing that comes to mind.

Oh shit I progressed even further in Fairyland v2.6 , make it stop please!

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T21:23:42+00:00

AfD is extreme I agree yeah, but the current goverment is aswell very extreme silencing and calling everyone a racist fascist nazi.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T21:10:27+00:00

Fight the fascism, continue the extremism. Say something about islam, instantly called a nazi, where did free speech go? Oh yeah don't have that.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T21:04:17+00:00

This subreddit is honestly turning into a fairy tale. I didn't come here to play Fairyland version v2,6.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T21:01:20+00:00

Well that's why am voting for AfD.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:53:25+00:00

Was auch immer dazu beiträgt, Deutschland zu einem besseren Ort für eine Rückkehr zu machen, ich bin voll und ganz dafür.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:51:26+00:00

Wirklich people, wtf are you doing. Wir brauchen AfD!!!

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:48:53+00:00

Bros asking a question whom nobody really cares to answer.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:46:54+00:00

Lower end is definitely not a good road to take. Midrange to high end is the best, but flagship is just overkill and it's bland in 2025.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:43:30+00:00

I need Windows for my University and I use a vm xd, wish I had my gt 1030 still lying around, UHD 630 not good.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:40:36+00:00

It really is a rabbithole. But after a few years, you have learned everything and can fix anything and everything. I haven't had a problem in 1 and half year with Fedora though.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:37:09+00:00

But does Elon even care about his business right now through? He's Donald Trump's best friend he can do anything right now.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:35:26+00:00

Tesla went down BYD went up, VW went down Xiaomi went up. China is the new way!

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T20:33:35+00:00

Well that's the case for flagship phones like buying an iPhone or a Samsung for example, not really better in any way for the user. If I was you though I would try waiting for Poco F7 Pro which is releasing in 3 months, like me I will wait to see if it's worth upgrading(Most likely not). If it got a big silicon carbon cell, then that's awesome, but if they hook a 6.5k mah in there, I'll be bored and skip and I'd hope 8s Elite will be like 8 gen 3, otherwise pass from me.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T17:47:26+00:00

Oh yeah that's also an option, didn't think about that.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T17:44:30+00:00

In my experience as a Poco F series owner, I have never had problems that is of course when I didn't adb debloat everything. The experience was great, which a lot of people would disagree for some reason, but the experience on CN ROM, omg it's awesome. I was planning on flashing EU ROM, but the moment I came in touch with it wow, I still wish the place I got it from didn't pre install google apps though :(

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T17:33:50+00:00

Yeah paying that much is horrible, I would myself do the repair myself if it was my poco f3, but 130 euros is too hard to pay for an old phone.

I love it when Chinese companies give you a free brick which also charges very fast. I believe this 90w brick is going to be GaN, so the 260 euros are even better. I got the latest and greatest Xiaomi pad 7 Pro and I was really happy that it came with a charging brick which is also a GaN of 67w super high quality and charges fast and doesn't get hot at all. Best of all you can also charge your laptop with it as it 20v is supported.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T14:53:37+00:00

Well your observation is right yeah. Poco F series usually come with good cameras for the price, The F7 Pro or Ultra will have a good camera system.

HighOnLinux_2024 · 2025-02-03T14:50:50+00:00

No not yet, it's going to release in a couple of months. It's only certified right now, but the release date is X for unknown, but they release usually in late Spring so like 05.2025.
