Hello house, please I want to get a new xiaomi. Something within 80k range. Was looking at the xiaomi a3 but there's a lot of negative reviews. Can someone recommend something else within the price range.

What negative reviews because I haven't seen any. Apart from the HD+ resolution everything about the phone is great with even a flagship grade main sensor Sony IMX 586

So it's a good deal? I'm actually upgrading from my note 5a prime.

It is a good deal as long as you are okay with stock android which has it's pros and cons.

I wanted to put it out there the Mi CC9 doesn't have Camera2api Level 3 enabled, so no full camera control. Only basic features on GCam works

Ever since I updated this RN7 to miui 10.3.10, the battery performance has gone down.

SOT now averages 5 to 6hrs and the battery graph is quite steep.
The main culprit is Android system. I have tweaked virtually every setting there is to tweak, still no improvement.

I can see on the xiaomi website (https://en.miui.com/getrom-360.html?m=yes&mobile=2) that there is a new rom 10.3.12
Hopefully, this will solve the problem when it is delivered.

Just few customization you can do on MIUI but can't do on Stock Android like themes and fonts

Refresh manually by clicking on check for updates on your updater app or change your region to Mexico or Morocco

Modified: You are on EEA (EU) ROM and not on Global Stable. The ROM receives updates late and not on par in updates frequency as Global Stable ROM

Thanks. I will try that soon.
I am currently downloading the full V10.3.12 rom through the website.
Question: If I download the Version: V10.3.6.0.PFGEUXM (MIUI10) Size: 1.7G which seems to be EU rom, do I need to go through the unlocking of bootloader route?

I have never been to a BRIC nation smiley

Global stable is on 10.3.6.12, but most people in Nigeria region have not gotten it and are still stuck on 10.3.10. don't know why his is still on 10.3.6.

I just noticed he is on EEA (EU) ROM

Stick to the Global stable you are downloading. You will need to unlock bootloader to switch ROM

Jejely stay on that version for now.
There is a reason they have not pushed it to you yet.
I will advise you wait patiently until they decide to send the update to your device.
You might end up getting 10.3.12 or later.
Some of us are on the frontlines. If you know, you know.

Modified: You are using EU rom and are already on the latest version.

Yeah. I see now. I think I will plan to switch someday.
I have so many things setup on my phone it will cost me about a day or two to fully transition to another rom.

Thanks.

We don't use bands 1 & 2 in Nigeria

Now most Chinese version have bands 3,7, 8, 40. But the CC9 series I noticed that xiaomi didn't put band 7.

Below are the LTE frequencies used in Nigeria.

NB: spectranet hardly works on any mobile phone except their modems and MIFI only few Huawei mobile phones supports spectranet.
Thanks bro

I just downloaded but couldn't install the upgrade obviously because I've installed a custom recovery. So I'll have to download the full rom and flash. So no more incremental update for me.
I changed region to Mexico.
