Ok so i noticed some few nifty features in MIUI 11 which are really cool i guess. Note my device is redmi 7a and some other devices can have more features than it.

** There are shortcuts to different settings, like you get suggestions to relevant settings. it reminds of me LG UX nd OneUi, very similar.
** One can also choose to blur app preview in Recents, i like this as this allows for privacy
** Dark mode can be scheduled too, you can set the time for when you want it activated and deactivated. Cool.
** There is a "special features" settings under phone settings where you get the brand new game Turbo and option to choose apps where you want access to be able to use quick replies in the notifications.
** Inclusion of digital wellbeing(dunno if the other higher models have it on their phone but it came with MIUI 11 on my phone)
** Brand new settings for sounds and vibrations (almost same with oxygen Os)
** Option to choose a notification style too ( MIUI or Android), I prefer android though as it looks pleasing to my eyes
** You can also choose how your clock is aligned if you are using stock theme under lock screen settings
** There is another option for battery indicator, you can choose to have it next to the icon instead of inside the icon.
** Stock fonts look bolder and bigger

These and many more under the hood changes.
Guess you will find some ans here

Yeah. I have noticed it for a while now but didn't bring it up here cos noone has ever complained here that I have seen. I use the gestures (I hated it at first, but now I just can't do without it: It's the thing I love the most about the phone, esp toggling apps with gestures. It's fun watching people in their confusion as they try to operate my phone). When I am using an app for a long time and sudden switch to home screen, it sometimes take about 3-5 sec for all the icon on the home screen to display. Only the wallpaper shows at that brief moments, before the screen flickers briefly also as the icons appear in quick succession.
As advice by my senior Xiaomite, wil wait for the official release for version 11. Probably they noticed some bugs and are trying to fix it. Me no get time and energy for downgrade

It's MIUI 11 that's causing the lag. Maybe when the stable version is released, the performance will be better.

Just wish swift key can allot you use the space bar control its cursor like Gboard. It would have been totally perfect for me
You can enable arrow keys in SwiftKey to help you navigate the cursor.

And I been dey think say na only me.. Anyhow sha, make we manage am like that until...

Do you have an idea if a higher ram model will fix it?

In all, I stil love my RN7, will choose it over any other device any day. I only wish it had dedicated mmc tray and also wish apps can be moved to mmc, without forming as internal storage.. Sometimes I try to drain my battery to 0% and start charging afresh but it seems like an impossible task. Since I bought the phone, the batter y has never died.

Na. It's long thing. I know of it. Thank you. It's not lie gboard. It like you using your keyboard on iPhone to move round a write up. But on gboard, it is limited to the space bar alone. You press and hold, as you slide your finger across.. Wish swift key had it

I had same experience with my former 3GB RN5.. MiUi is very heavy on RAM, as such I recommend minimum of 4GB ram for new users

If u are tech savvy u can try flashing Xiaomi.eu, it's a very lightweight Miui based rom.. With a lot of optimisations and better ram management

Otherwise u can try going into Settings/Apps/Permissions/Autostart and disable Autostart for all apps except your social media apps like WhatsApp.. Check my screenshot for an idea of what I mean

Yes to both. The sim extender makes the phone slightly elevated from the pouch and it makes the IR blaster not align perfectly. So using it as a remote, I have to either really press the phone against the pouch for the IR blaster to set well or I kukuma remove it frm the pouch. And I don't too like to remove the phone frm the pouch cos I am finich abt the sim extender getting damaged
