I wondered why this image always shows on my RN7, it comes in a form of flash, sometimes 3 to 5 seconds. Has anyone ever experienced and how can I stop it?

Go to "Settings*Lock screen & password*advanced setting*

Disable Pocket mode

The bug is still there but just manageable. If it happens frequently, I will turn off adaptive battery for a short while and turn it back on.

Boss, have u noticed this high cell standby usage on ur redmi note 5?...... it's really killing the battery here with heavy drops recently infact most times it tops the screen usage overnight wch is actually absurd to me. Expecting ur reply

Sometimes it is caused by poor network. Yesterday night I went to sleep with 62% and woke up with the same percentage. When next you wake up check your battery gragh, take note of the network bar, if there are so many browns, then network is the culprit.

@godspeed
Lame, the time of my phone done pass too quickly. Between the k20 pro and Samsung s9 of last year I know which one I'll easily choose.
So why did you buy the Mi9SE instead of Samsung S9? undecided

See before I chose the mi 9 se, I seriously considered buying the mi 8 of last year, in the end, it was the size of the mi 9 Mi9SE that prevailed so age has nothing to do with this

You are only strengthening the major point from my last post here cheesy

Bros the picture quality of the SE is confirmed better than the k20 series. You read an American even mention it in the same breathe with the pixel 3a. The 9 SE has better picture quality and I'll show u proof.
I dey wait for your proof!

And of course the size is still a compelling reason to choose the 9 SE.
Once again, you're strengthening my point.

Features like radio, headphone Jack and the likes are so irrelevant in the tech world of today.

I just asked all my colleagues in the office now if they listen to radio on their phones and you need to see the look in their eyes, the question sounded so ridiculous to them.
This is you just over-reaching here. As for me and a whole lot of phone enthusiasts, we would rather have feature(s) even though they are rarely used than not have them at all.
You never know when some features will come in handy.
So, your irrelevant talk is just trying too hard to console yourself for buying a phone with less features.

This is always what my network bar looks like in the attached screenshot and the best I've always come to overnight is 2percent battery drain mostly between 10pm and 4am. Don't really know what's happening though with this high cell standby

Na wa for some of your points at times sha. If the screen to body ratio was not such a big thing, why has it been reducing gradually over the years?
Even the iPhone X you are making reference to, why didn't Apple stick to the big bezels of the previous iPhone 8? undecided
Even most midrange phones ain't left out of the reduction of the Screen to body ratio trend and you are saying it isn't important in classifying how premium a phone is.

Remind me what all the major Flagships released recently look like? undecided

I don't get still, In terms of performance iPhone 8 is still better than most Xiaomi Flagship..

I use Pixel 2, what has Bezel got to do with better Phone?

Bezel makes phone more durable, the Mi 9T can survive some kind Drop, you will replace the screen..

And why exactly are you not sticking with the more durable phones? Why did you buy the Mi9T?

Is your data ON during this period? If no am sure it's a bug that the next update will hopefully address. But from the look of your graph, your battery is still doing very fine.

I must have mistaken your moniker for another concerning the bolded.

The Pixel 2 is a very good phone with fantastic camera, but Stock Android is not everybody's cup of tea. I have never been a big fan of it.

I prefer custom skins with in-built features that I would need to sideload through mods on Stock android.

Remind me how well the Pixel(s) have done in the Market so far compared to similarly priced phones at launch?

Don't use your hands to cover the earpiece speaker grill of your phone. There's a proximity sensor. It's very normal. Shows that the phone's working.
