the one on carousell is the white version 256gb!

Here's poco reply on the green tint issue:

Dear customer, thank you for your support to Redmi products. The phone will undergo strict professional testing before leaving the factory, so you can use it with confidence. For OLED products, you may notice slight changes in color and chromaticity under different brightness. This is a characteristic of OLED and is a normal phenomenon. You can try the following methods to adjust the screen color, setting-display-color style (after checking ""adaptive (recommended)"", adjust the position of the point in the upper ball to change the preference of the screen display effect. At present, the R&D staff has fixed the problem that the screen displays green under a gray background under low brightness. Please be patient and wait for the next version, thank you

Yes that is the official vanced website, you have to download vanced manager first then install it like a normal apk. After that you have to go to the settings > developer options and scroll until bottom then turn off miui optimization (this will allow YouTube vanced & microG to be installed from the manager app). If miui optimization doesn't appear, you have to click "Reset to default values" a couple of time then it will appear. After that you can just go back to the manager app & install youtube vanced


*after turning off miui optimization you also need to set all of the permissions for all your apps again (location/gallery/camera/contacts)

no need, you can just update it straight from the vanced manager app. because first install you need to install version 15 first, open the app then login to your google account. After that go back to the manager app to update youtube vanced to version 16, this one you can just click "update"

I think the miui on global rom still have a lot more issues that is already fixed on the china rom. Since global rom is still 12.0.2 while china rom already on 12.0.8 and already had their issues sorted because redmi k40 was released first. Hopefully miui eu (based on china rom + google services - ads) will be better than global

You can try checking "Show refresh rate" in dev options then go to the google feed page. I think it drops down to 60hz in the google feed page that's why it feels so choppy. It does the same thing on some apps that has a lot of pictures

What private dns did you use?

Probably 5/5

Hopefully shopee but I got a feeling it will be on lazada again since the past 2 sales are only done there. Who knows they might switch to shopee or have it on both

Same, coming from the x3 with 5160 mAh battery. Hopefully it gets better with updates

I found this one, 27w for 1 of the ports, has mi turbo charge support. Was released back when mi 9 & k20pro first came out. 27w is sufficient enough for me as a car charger imo. You can also find other sellers selling it for less than rm30

F3 now available to buy on shopee from poco.os/poco official store global (shipped from china). For 256gb only got 15 units for arctic white and for 128gb got more than 200 units for both white and black. Hopefully the next sale will be done there on shopee instead of lazada again. Link for 256GB+8GB and 128GB+6GB

yea last sale was on lazada 4.4. That's why i said next time if there's a sale they should do it on shopee instead of lazada. i think more people prefer shopee, can use coins and other vouchers

yeah the mi series is catered more for the premium feeling, that's why its more expensive. The mi 11 lite is rm1199 for a sd 732g chipset. You can get a better/around the same phone with the redmi note 10 pro with cheaper price but less premium feel

where am i blaming lazada? i just said more prefer if its on shopee

EEA rom (europe) just received 12.0.4 with this changelog "Optimized standby battery drain and fixed dim display issue while overheated." Hopefully it'll come soon for global

only available for europe/EEA rom since 12am this morning. Not yet for global

isnt that only available for redmi note 10?
