Which tempered glass you are buying? I bought imak one but have white ring around. Prefer to buy from shopee (can use coin) or aliexpress, not used to buy from taobao.

Yeah, something like this. They give liquid to apply but i didn't use it.
Nillkin one is the full screen one with black frame? Thanks

U buy with black frame most likely will have same halo effect too. Buy H+ without black frame ba. Slightly smaller coverage and lesser risk of having halo effect

I am having some issues with notifications. For my Gmail, I have enabled floating notifications, given it no battery saver mode plus autostart permission, but there's no drop-down bar to show my email. Only got a vibration and an icon in the status bar. How do I enable the floating drop-down notification?

Edit: resolved, under Gmail settings there’s another specific notification for Mail, so gotta allow floating notification for that as well so incoming mail gets it too. Just leaving it here in case it helps anyone else. This is my new main phone!

Anyway just a short review of the F3 after playing it intensively for a day

Phone's build is really a much premium feel as compared to Redmi 9 pro / X3 Pro / F1. Phone is pretty slim and the hold & grip feels really great (especially vs x3 pro)
Next, the AMOLED screen really shines as vs x3 pro's IPS LED, the colors display is like a different level altogether.
The brightness, especially under sunlight (with Sunlight boost mode or auto brightness) outshines past xiaomi phones i owned
Tried gaming (MLBB) for 3 hours under highest settings + highest brightness (battery dropped from 90% -> 50%). Totally smooth with 0 signs of lag. Sensitivity is topnotch with its 360Hz touch sampling especially useful for certain gameplays (i.e highspeed multi-touches/hold+drag & ever experienced touch latency or unintended gesture on F1 / RMN9Pro / x3 pro). Phone do get abit warm though, but didnt experience dimming (or not noticeable/i didnt realised)
Overall, super satisfied with the phone and will be my main driver hopefully for years to come

The F3 is really the better deal, the screen is way better imo :o
