    There is a lot of research about that, just keep reading and get some facts about PROJECTS not just, what iI believe or what I dream of...

    -- "Project Treble doesnÂ’t necessarily mean that all handsets will see updates instantaneously, as Google is not handling them directly. So, we cant say this will work, for how long and if will be a real solution, its just a good iniciative."

    -- "Also there are two main ways to encourage updates, but Mainline and Treble — NEITHER IS ENOUGH and this is all a result of how the Android ecosystem works."

            Why is the rear casing made of glass, surely this adds unnecessary weight and greater risk of damage?

                  When you actually consider Chinese brand smartphone, you should have realized that the Samsung and Apple have reached the ceilling price we could no longer afford.

First of all, that was the default web browser that nobody uses. Everyone uses Chrome. Second of all, even if some random Chinese company could see every single thing I did on my phone I wouldn't care at all. And most other people shouldn't care at all. They aren't gonna be stealing your bank info and they aren't gonna be stealing your accounts. If they did end up doing that they'd be in deeper waters than just being caught looking at web browsing. We're talking legal issues and potential bankruptcy in the end. No big company would risk their reputation like that. I'm surprised you aren't complaining about Google or Facebook or Instagram or literally any other company that collects data. Google literally listens to your mic yet I don't see y'all that are complaining about Xiaomi complaining about that, when it's pretty much even worse.

                    Besides, if you care that much then install a ROM because you can't guarantee your security with any company.

                    Stop forcing your opinions on other people. Both phones have their pros and cons and that's end of story, acknowledging security or not.

                      Static IP gives it away. But yes, right now we are being flooded with Chinese brands that have questionable policies and they are required by Chinese law to provide data for the government. The same government that has discriminated against (or even worse) many minorities / people for decades. I don't want to go into detail because GSMArena seems not independent either.

                          Anonymous, 29 Apr 2020Speak wisely, bro. Most of the spps are now currently only available for Android 5.0 or above.... moreI speak of those that complaint to have any single update, people get an Android phone and just for that cant live without the next update, even if the phone is fully capable of work fine, they insist in have something that guarantee next Android version.

                          Mainly people use phones for Social Media, Whatsapp, Facebook, Twitter and so on works fine on Android 5.0, but, If some cant get the latest update feels like the phone is trash and feels betrayed hehehe

                          Redmi Note 8 Pro have Android 10 in many markets, but they feels like the phone is useless if they dont have that update

                            The phone is too heavy and also very slippery

                            Adding to the frustration of holding the phone upright for extended periods of time.
                            Sometimes it would just blank out unexpectedly.
                            --- Weird I have mine since cames out and never experienced something like that, go for you Warranty maybe you got a Lemon.

                            This phone is just overhyped and frustrating to use

                                If anyone is eyeballing to buy this phone, buy it from India. the Indian versions have dedicated microSD slots so you can use both of your sim cards while having the SD card, the global or Chinese version do not have a dedicated SD slot, it will be a hybrid. go search amazon india.

Youtube does this, google does it, almost everyone does this it's for personalisied ads and recommendations that's why it takes your IMEI and Device ID. Also if you are still worried just don't use the default browser, all of em come with chrome installed.

                                      Look wise very good. Problem in software. Automatic closes some application. Settings don't work properly. Camera is worst. Battery is ok.

                                        The handnset looks better than it really is. The design is really really good and unique. when I look at it I feel like better hardwares could be packed inside it. Still not bad but if you talk bout looks and colour only, then yes its a flagship. ultra unique design.
