First of all(go down low ) what's your budget. If it's within 60k, i would advice you to go for Xiaomi Redmi note 5. I won't advice u to go for any Samsung phone if it's not Galaxy Note 9 you are going for. As for the bugs in xiaomi phone regular updates can fix it. And the phone can last for you use it jejely(avoid contsct with water, avoid falling, avoid overcharging)

Boyco:

Thats wat I tot too , updated it to miui 9 6.0 2 and the camera just became so terrible, its blurry nd bad ...the front cam is just the worst , not happy with d phone at all

Did you flash through OTA or manually?

Lavoca:
Did you flash through OTA or manually?

Through normal ota updates

Boyco:

Through normal ota updates

You MAY need to download the full rom and flash manually. Just back up your data

Like I said, it depends on how u use it. I can't guarantee you it will last that long as I just stated using xiaomi earlier this year. So fa, no issues for me whatsoever so it will definitely serve me long.

Since budget is around 100k, then poco f1 is the right xiaomi phone for u

Me I'm gona downgrade to d previous 9.5.6 dat came with d phone, camera � became worst after every update, MIUI 10 is d worst
An upgrade on any device should be better dan d previous bt d reverse is d case

Those of you complaining over camera quality of miui 10, did you bother to change the default settings?

ArrowOs v7 for Mi Max 2

Bro how can I do it too , I need to go back to the old update that came with the phone , at least the camera was better than this nonsense I have now , I don't even snap anything again ...I was even having hope for it to be resolved on miui 10

Fastboot flashing of older ROM should help u to downgrade if you aren't on Oreo yet.

Probably a bug with the cam software. You can install gcam if you want pending when it's fixed
