    just looking comments about battery and seems that I am a lucky one - 100 to 50% - 18h active, almost 4h SOC... but I don't play games, only YouTube, browsing internet, Bluetooth headset almost always on and some google maps. Miui 12.5.1.0 global. Camera not so good but ok, miui with every update have surprises, sometimes good and sometimes terrible. 12.5.1 is ok, for me much better than previous version...

                        I've being using the Xiaomi Redmi Note 9S for ten months.
                        Battery that lasts days even when I use an Amazfit Tracker Band 5 at all times, the only thing that I don't like is the lack of reading when I'm in the sun but I knew about that when I bought the cellphone.
                        Bought another for my son and he is happy with it.

                            Have had this phone more a month now, upgraded MUI... no issues, ZERO for me. Battery performance is on point, tethered for whole day while WFH it was 72% by EOD.

                            Cant ask for more but let me keep observing

As in the "most users will face the issue" were also not my words but from one of the sites doing reviews ... and judging by the amount of comments under the threads that are discussing this failure there are not just few users facing this. Don't get me wrong, if you are one of the lucky people that don't face the problem good for you - but this issue is known to Xiaomi since last year and there is stillno solution ATM.

                                  That's exactly what I meant - there is a portion of users who are experiencing certain issues with the phone, as with ANY phone, but a vast majority is happy with how the phone works.
                                  I haven't experienced any of the problems you mentioned, and neither have any of my friends who own this model.
                                  Simply put, and generally speaking - this is an excellent phone.

                                    Well ... Feel free to look up with Google. Just type "Redmi Note 9s receiver problem". Below is a copy/paste of some of the threads (also from the Xiaomi official page).

                                    Today, it is coming to light that a section of Redmi Note 9S users is facing an issue with their device’s earpiece. This, according to reports, resulted from updating the device to firmware version V11.0.11.0 (QDWMIXM). The issue seems to be a little widespread and here are some of the complaints we came across (1, 2, 3).

                                    Let's not forget that in the case of the Redmi Note 9S, not even restoring the terminal itself could solve this problem with the volume level of the call speaker. Something that is also happening in the Redmi Note 9 Pro and to a lesser extent in the Redmi Note 9.
                                    YOU MAY BE INTERESTED: Some units of the Redmi Note 9, 9S and 9 Pro have a serious problem with their camera For its part, Xiaomi has already reported that it is aware of the problem and that the development team is working on it in order to launch, as soon as possible, a solution that avoids this annoying failure.
