BTW, anyone use car phone holder? Which type is the best? I see there's 3 types sticker, magnet and aircond holder style, which should i get? Any real experience?

Magnet for sure is the best. Once u use magnet u wont use the rest.

Magnet is just so convenient. Get the Baseus one. Very good quality

Thanks. Which version are you using?
If I understand correctly, Vertical uses 3M sticker sticking to dashboard. Can it be removed and re-stick back?

Air vent is via clipping
*
Using the vertical one with 3m sticker. Not sure whether can stick back anot. Never removed b4 once sticked

Just updated to MIUI 10 as well. How do I disable the swipe up to launch browser gesture?

Last time it launches Google now or something but now it launches Mi Browser. I don't use Mi Browser. If it opens up to chrome I don't mind.
*
Mine launches google now. Ur settings changed izzit?

Miui10 is really nice. So much better than my s9plus UI.

just wanna ask note 5 owners here.

i have no experience with miui or xiaomi phones.

is miui really that bad?

read in other forums they claim miui have many unnecesary ads, bloatware etc. which is affecting the phone performance

can we disable all this on the note 5?

i'm not sure whether to get the note 5 or the Mi A2
*
Alot of comments about miui and emui being bad is exaggerated by users here.

I have used many phones and so far miui and emui i have no issues. Easy to nice to use. Not sure why ppl say its bad.

Wah, LCD screen burn in very rare. Usually happen on Amoled screen.

How to check if got burn in?

Maybe can send for warranty.

My Redmi Note 5 still working great after 8 months.

Though with just 3gb ram, but still blazing fast like first day.

However, just got Mate 20 today.

From China to China phone lol.

Redmi Note 5 is my first try into Xiaomi, and I can say they really produce good quality phones at really affordable prices.
*
Yup. I like my redmi note 5 photos more than my s9plus photos. Way better
