I sold my newly bought Samsung a71 which I bought #170000 because of battery drain which didn't correspond with the 5000mah battery and bought Redmi 9t and I must confess this device is a beast apart from the camera that is not too good, the performance is smooth, I watch YouTube videos without stutter and the battery is a monster, it just won't die, I do not even plug my device when there is electricity,thumbs up to them

You actually went from a mid-range to probably a budget phone. You should have gone for something higher. Yes, the camera of Redmi 9t is poor. You can fix the camera with Gcam, and you'll be surprised by the output.

The only problem I have with Redmi is data security. This fone never obey any command or settings. If you have any useful data I'd advise you to stay away. Samsung is the only android phone I really rate.
Almost every single app including message app want access to the Internet. If you like restrict data access they will still use your mb. Then you start wondering what they're uploading.
The phone also keeps tab of all your activities so always clear cache look for funny looking files to delete all the time.
The phone is solid though for gaming and normal stuff

From my experience, you can restrict sim data acess for any app including some system apps and they won't access the internet. If you open the app, it will request for your permission, and you can either accept or reject. It's only when using WiFi I know you can't restrict system app data.

You're complaining of data harvest and you continue to use Google, Facebook, Whatsapp, YouTube, and Instagram everyday. All your activities are tracked by those apps, esp Google and Facebook. Your contacts, emails, daily phone usage, videos you watch on YouTube, search history, apps you opened, Google has them all. Those are the apps you should be worried about and not your phone. Regards of if you use Samsung, iPhone or Oppo, you cannot stop those people from harvesting your data. The only way you can stop anyone, app, phone or company from tracking your activities is by using a feature phone that doesn't have internet. Your data is always at risk as far as you're connected to the global network of computers.

one thing I've noticed with redmi products is people not able to reach you even when the phone is on. it happened to mine like for 3 months after I bought it and it stopped. my brother bought some months after I bought mine and same thing is still happening, it's going to six months since he bought it, I don't know if any other redmi usee has experienced this.
I think it's the network band in your area though.. I happens attimes... Do you usually receive calls when you are out of the house

Maybe that's why he sold it to you.

I've been using Redmi7 for more than 3 years now and the battery is still the same.
I have to give battery to Xiaomi.
I'm saving for the note 10

in the battery department, I will give it to infinix. I bet you have not used an infinix device before. I have used Samsung, Tecno, infinix and currently using Redmi. but I will give it to infinix.

I've had a Redmi note 4 for over 3 years now and it's still going strong, no single fault whatsoever.

So please tell us another story or just shut up.

Am sure you believe a lot of what Americans tell you..
Everything Chinese is bad and should be avoided and everything American and Korean is good and should be embraced..
That in a nutshell,is the summary of your mindset..

Is this not the same demented,attention seeking,entitled F00l that came to Xiaomi Thread to insult his ancestors?
The mannerless TW4T couldn't even be bothered to explain what his wahala is,upon a thread he opened to bash Xiaomi..

Raya Electronics is their accredited repair partner.

That thing could be a bug cuz it happened to a colleague of mine last year, all I did was to slam another ROM on it and since then, no complaint. I have, at least, 4 peeps using it around me without an issue.
Re: . by ChuckKingston(m): 9:19am On Mar 20, 2021
Could this be some form of reverse psychology being played out here by actual Xiaomi fans to get people to talk about how good Xiaomi is.
Because the op couldn't even highlight a single issue he had and 70% of the comments here are shockingly testimonials of Xiaomi fans grin ;
Anyway, I'm also a fan for years and I'm currently using my fourth Xiaomi device and I can say it's definitely worth the price tag on it BUT NOT the hypes constantly thrown at it

It can be so frustrating to buy a phone and the next thing it shuts down.

New brands are not bad, but go for brands that can be trusted.

I am very much OK with my TECNO brands for years now. I don't intend to waste resources abeg.

So in your opinion xiaomi is the new brand ? Try to do a little bit of research and stop living in a bubble
