I still have a 500gb HDD drive that is 5 years old. Maybe handling and usage differ with individual.
Even changed its casing because of multiple cracks. The only downside is the new case is USB 2.0 unlike the original with 3.0.
You can get a case with even type C, just a little more expensive on Aliexpress

other phones likehuh This is the phone with the specs I want, buh lately I found out dat de camera is wack
Whatever rocks your boat. Update your phone if you have pending updates. My own phone's early front camera issues were fixed through that. Till now I don't use GCam on my phone. But if you need GCam I can get you a link.

GCam
http://www.mediafire.com/file/do57z03arpqr7p3/GCam_5betaFinal.200428.0056build-7.3.020.apk/file
Or
http://www.mediafire.com/file/bubpntz3tzctpeu/Arnova_5_Beta_v7.3.020_%255BCLONE%255D.apk/file

Config file

http://www.mediafire.com/file/rywbqsyx7631odq/RN7ProA7v5VS_0501.xml/file

To apply Config
To learn how to use XML files please see this tutorial [ Use the name "Configs7" instead of "Configs" for the sub-folder containing the XML files ] » put the XML file(s) inside "Configs7" sub-folder » open G-Cam and double-tap the black empty space around the shutter button » apply config (switching between configs does not require rebooting)
Or

See this link.
https://www.celsoazevedo.com/files/android/google-camera/f/settings09

Even Samsung users use GCam follow the words of this OP on your own peril.

Note when you start using GCam you become his enemy, we have a lovely camera thread that welcomes everybody and also teaches how to make good of your phone to make memories. You are welcome to join.

I still connect my 2tb Western digital passport hdd to my mi 9t to share files.
Maybe the SD 730 has something to do with that.
And it's on ntfs format.
I have friends who are scared of buying HDDs larger than 500Gb, that they don't last because multiple bad experience

I've tried this o with my k20, it recognizes the NTFS HDD when I plug it but at some point the booting sound stops. however, I can still see the HDD icon in the Es explorer but it doesn't go pass that once I click on it.

I'll try creating another partition but not gonna be anytime soon cos that means formatting nd loosing 2.5tb worth of data nd considering I don't ve another place that can backup such capacity. Imagine the power consumption using that regularly with my phone, whereas m still whipping from the hands of using DS3 controller to playgames.
My HDD don't open on ES EXPLORER but works on Solid Explorer just download solid Explorer pro and download the OTG plug-in. It will open

Please can someone explain to me the difference btw Chinese Rom and a global Rom...... Is der any disadvantage if i use the Chinese Rom here?
Go for Global Versions

https://www.nairaland.com/5528053/xiaomi-compilation-thread

Global Version is meant for the Global Market with more LTE Bands, The Global ROM was originally built for Global Versions.

If you see Global ROM on Aliexpress you are buying a Chinese Version with lesser LTE bands whose bootloader has been Unlocked then a Global ROM flashed on it to replace the Chinese ROM it originally came with. Hence when delivered the carton is not sealed.

Chinese ROM comes with Chinese Version by default except if the seller on AE changes it. (I already stated the LTE Bands limitations) only supports Chinese and English Language, No GApps pre-installed since they are banned in china and limited access to Themes and fonts. synchronization can be a headache atimes when you finally side-load GApps.

See next time use the link I shared up there. It was because of questions like this that thread was created. But do not comment there

I'm already using Mx player but unlike years ago when I was using Redmi 3s, Mi video player always reverts back as the default player after you've finished watching video.
I don't experience such but why not open Mx player to read all your video files instead of accessing it from file manager thereby increasing RAM usage.

Mckandre:
sure but only if u format ur HDD into FAT32 file system.
Mine works with NTFS, just get ES Explorer or Solid Explorer to read it. Like I said earlier the only limitation of NTFS on mobile is write. You can follow Jboixxx recommendation by partitioning and making one partition exfat because that is the format your internal storage uses. Exfat takes larger files than FAT32

I'm using the 7a and am enjoying it, Imagine the camera beat the 45k+ infinix hot 8 3cameras,and has a sharper screen,my question for Xiaomi is that why can't they create small screen phones with high specs for people that like compact screens, even if i have money the only options i can see are the outdated Google pixel phones
Why ask Xiaomi when, every other OEM is doing the same thing. Big screen is the new craze and people are buying.

Seems I'll just get this note 8.. rn9s is out of my budget now plus some other complains.. Has Android 10 and miui 12 arrived on the rn8?. That miui 12 is catchy
Which other complains. Did screen issues prevent OnePlus 8 Pro from selling out. Even the RN8 have factory defects too. But you only hope yours isn't one of them.

You made a mistake. Even if that will happen. It will be after we are sure of the chipset in Note 9. But for the next week you mentioned. Just only few will follow suit.
What do you want to be sure about the Chipset in the Redmi Note 9?

Hello phone gurus in the house.. Your advise is highly needed. A colleague has saved money to buy brand new phone. I urged him to buy RN8pro after lockdown. Now that Xiaomi has RN9s, should I still pet him to wait till Mid May and buy RN9s or he should just go ahead with RN8pro..
It is left to him. The RN8 Pro retail price is currently more expensive than the RN9s retail price when it goes on sale.

the rumors surrounding rn9s screen quality is underwhelming
almost all YouTubers and users are claiming about the poor screen and bleeding issues
don't actually know if xiaomi can fix things with there next production
I don't base my purchase on YouTube reviewers. And it is three reviewers not almost all like you claimed. Like I said before there is no perfect assembly line. Even the $1400 S20 Ultra has abundance of issues so it is normal.

By the way which phone do you want to buy. Last year you tracked the Mi 9t throughout, this year nko?

the phone can't power the hard drive.
It will na him battery go hear am. If the HDD is in NTFS format it can only read but can't write.

My RN5 powers my 750GB but since it is NTFS it can only read but I can't write to it.

this guy know Xiaomi phone that will be launched in 2023 including the spec, the lead team engineer, location to be launched, the date, the time,price, he will even tell you who package the phone.....

you might think AM exaggerating this... believe me he knows what he's saying

good pm
seems u guys aren't talking about the mi 10 lite
it's 350$ via launch and it's has great specs
sd765g , 4 cameras, amoled screen
etc
We know about it but what exactly are you spending the $350 on?

It is basically an RN9s in the camera department, with a smaller battery, slightly faster Charging, an Amoled with in-display fingerprint and a better processor with 5G modem. That is why it is not really talked about.

I feel realme has cheaper price than all his brothers but uses the best technology from their portfolio.

I think realme price is cheaper than xiaomi but they dont have global apeal of xiaomi.
Realme official Global prices are way more expensive than Redmi.

Don't fret yet. Like I said, IMO. I am waiting for early reviews before I can say anything definite. I am really curious as why Xiaomi had to use the G85 over the G80 which seems pointless to me right now. They could've put a SD712 in there and called it a day.

The RN9 may have something clever up its sleeve and may be a good device all round and might be a consistent performer, but right now I wouldn't hold my breath.

If Realme had Indian prices internationally, they'd be the new Xiaomi. But they're going the Oppo way.
Technically they OPPO in another skin. Vivo, IQOO, Oppo, Realme and even OnePlus have one thing in common apart from R&grin similar pricing techniques.
