Wow. Loyal MIUI fan. Impressive!

But custom ROM of course ler.. not everyone can do it.

I like Lineage on Xiaomi phones.. the only thing I hate is can't pass Safety Net

Please don't recommend other ROMs or Magisk.

Xiaomi is #1 in hardware.
Samsung is #1 in software.

So if had to pick, I would go for Samsung too.

I think ads can be turned off if you're in global ROM

Not I say one, but people say.

I think so too. Last time I stop it I think. But after update, they are on again. But the ads don't really a bother. So I'm just lazy to do anything.

U mean those suggestion apps? Turn it off.. even in poco you can turn them off.. I hope it's not in their flagship.

No no, that one I off. Just the ads when use cleaner app like that.

Ohh... those i dont use them not sure can delete those cleaner app though

IF you have the money.....go for Flagship Samsung o Iphone....what else there for general consumer? European brand? American Brand? Only Chinese brand that caters not just for Asia, but even Europe! Nokia , Alcatel never been seen in mass consumer market...Even Taiwanese HTC nowhere to be seen....

i have Poco F1 and Poco F3. its so reliable in term of gaming, daily use and battery capacity. screen also nice. MIui also not bad

Worse still Samsung midrange and top spec models. Every single model has either battery problems or ghost touches.

Most reliable for me is still the OnePlus 1 to 8. After that, questionable. Might splurge on the Nothing 1 for fun.

I'm using honor x9b for now. So far so good. Will update if got any problem or issue

RRP is RM1,499. But with celcom 12month contracts with RM80/m postpaid, only pay RM599.

If take 24month contracts, phone price is RM299. celcom really buang harga

u just come out from cave?

or you still in 2013?

Honor very nice and stable os

Im before this using honor 90 lite. But camera suck.. esp the selfie camera.. super suckk

Now i change to honor magic 5.. its very fast phone and very nice camera. Using SD gen 2..

most phone added extra app but full ads is the next level

Realme GT Neo 5 series totally owned & pawned Samsung A series & M Series in terms of quality & specs.

Oppo Find X6 Pro is as good as S22U or S23U.

Xiaomi MI 11 ultra has one of the best cameras & 4K video recording I have seen among Android & iPhone.

I have used a couple of Chinese mobile phones and had trouble with the battery timing for both sets. I then switched back to Samsung that seems to be the best options when it comes to Android mobile phones.

Xiaomi Mi 11 – Faulty Wi-Fi/Bluetooth & Blurry Camera Issues

My Xiaomi Mi 11 started having serious issues after nearly 2 years of use. The Wi-Fi and Bluetooth chip failed, and the main camera became blurry after about a year, despite the lens being completely scratch-free. (This blurry camera issue seems to be a known problem with the Mi 11 series.)

Thankfully, the phone was still under warranty. However, I nearly got scammed by Xiaomi Malaysia when they attempted to replace my Mi 11 with a Mi 11T — a clear downgrade in terms of features and performance.

I pushed back and made it clear that there were only three fair options:

1. Replace my unit with the same model (which wasn't feasible as the Mi 11 was already discontinued),
2. Offer an upgrade to a newer model — ideally the Mi 12 (Mi 13 had already been released by then),
3. Provide a full refund.

After going back and forth with Xiaomi Malaysia and receiving no meaningful update, I filed a complaint with KPDNHEP.

A few hours after submitting the report, I got a call from Xiaomi Malaysia — they agreed to issue a full refund. The money was credited to my bank account within 7 working days.

Lesson learned: never again.

Xiaomi quality is kinda hit or miss

There are quite a few "lemon" models that just die like the very famous Poco X3 PMIC issue that just results in them dropping dead

It's a bit of a gamble really

is all abt the cost, sometimes

3 phones cost RM1.2k each is worth 1 phone that cost RM3.6K. and who knows what spec you are having for that 3.6K phone.

but a latest RM1.2K phone, buy every 2 years would gave you nice spec...most importantly, not scare of losing/spoil/fat battery. I got to buy 1 every 2 years
Reliability? meh...few of mine last 3-5 years. and i buy becoz i feel like upgrading nia
