i find that when I take photos it looks ok on the phone, but when you print it out or view zoomed, quite lacking. but i guess you get what you pay for....

Depend on your skill. Hehe

If you want to zoom, you need to disable HDR during bright daylight.

Yes, is worse. So I move to the dev roms. Slightly better, maybe once a day need to reboot to get gps. 8.2.3.0 is like almost every time i wanted to use waze it need a reboot.

After 3 days testing,  so far didn't need to reboot my phone. Sometime the GPS will need 3-5mins to lock but not always. This maybe a temporary workaround. Will test longer.

mine is still as problematic as ever.....i think i will not buy xiaomi for my next phone because of this. SOOOOOO irritating. My wife's phone (same model and bought same time) also has the same problem.

Yes, but it seem to cause of the GPS issue for some of us that having gps issue.

I been using normal GPS 3rd days now, so far so good. Only sometime locking take 3-5mins
*
my location mode options:
High accuracy
Battery saving
Device only

if I choose anything else besides high accuracy and I turn on Waze, it will ask me to turn on GPS which then automatically sets my location mode to high accuracy.

I am now using "Device only" didn't ask me to change. "Battery saving" will ask me to change.

I think I may have solved my issue!!!!

Go to Settings > Battery > Power > App Batter Saver > Waze

Background settings: No restrictions (previously restrict background apps)
Background location: Allow (previously restrict)

It seems to work now!

i'm planning to ditch this phone soon. the battery life is really bad now (can't even last a work day anymore) and until now the GPS issue is still not fixed. I know not everyone has the GPS issue, but the fact that it's happening and xiaomi hasn't been able to fully fix the problem, not worth it to me.

the biggest problems i had with the mi cameras (RN2 and RN3) is there is no OIS and horrible photos in low light. since my battery is also increasingly sucky, decided to invest in a phone which could satisfy both.
