One thing I enjoy from 9pro is the google messenger. :o They have been successfully blocking those SPAM messages (SMS) and I just have to report and delete those rubbish messages. :o
I hate those spam advertising for loans. Ass holes
I receive I report n block.

Coz I've been using Note 4 for 3 yrs..from Note 5 onwards, I lost touch with the new features. But the notification light colours are really useful. Too bad they removed it.

I am still using my redmi note 4 watching pika pika. :o

My previous phone was apple and redmi note 4. :o So I didn't have experience with google messenger. :o It has capability to auto detect the spams and filter it. :o

Redmi Note 4 can't install it ah. Thought it would have come with Google Messenger too. Gmail has one of the better spam filter so i would think their detection capability is quite good. The most fun would be when the Phone app can do screening :s13: Those robo calls gonna be enjoying talking to their own kind and scam calls will probably not be able to scam anymore lol

Hi guys!

I am interested in this phone.

What is the price point that I should be expecting for the variants of this phone?

Also, is unlocking the bootloader still easy for this phone? Xiaomi will give approval rite? I have encountered older phones not able to bind Xiaomi account to the phone, with error 20091.

Bought 9S 64GB for $229 during recent discounts from their xiaomiofficialstore.sg shopee store, maybe wait for 9.9 sales.
Pro is a better purchase for a slightly higher price.

Try bear with it. I know that feel. I was using Galaxy Note 5 and S7 Edge until 2-3 months ago. From flagship to mid range but the mid range feel more like flagship.
My last Samsung phone..I used for 4 years until finally one day cannot start up to home screen. It just keep stuck at the rebooting stage.

This is the kind of minor detail that Xiaomi still can't get it right.

Actually not much of an issue to me... i always use ampere to see the real current...Frankly speaking Xiaomi now releasing more and more model of phones.. their developers all spread out to more phones models... sometime u upgrade a rom u get new features but old features gone or become buggy... thats the issue... thats what i feel after using mi phones all this years..;).. good thing is u can feedback to them and they very fast patch during next updates... u want huawei or samsung to update maybe 1 year got 2 times u already very heng... xiaomi one year can update abt 10 times.. then as the year gone with rom more stable the update get lesser

Note 9 is using mediateck cpu.. if i am u i will get note 9s or note 9pro;).. Why do u need to unlock bootloader? Now mi phone is good enough i dun need to use third party launcher, dun need to root at all.

I thought can just install a GPS spoofing app, then go to Developers Option and 'Select fake location app', all without rooting?

Originally I wanted to unlock bootloader and root it with Magisk, just to run Adaway (ad filter) and Youtube Vanced. But seeing that there's Adguard DNS that I can set in Settings without rooting, and potentially failing the device checks that renders the NFC and banking/Singpass part useless... I just debloat and use as it is.

Maybe few years down the line when they stop pushing out updates, then I'll consider installing custom ROM. Another perk of having Snapdragon device over Mediatek is there are more ppl developing ROMs for SD devices. Technically, my Note 3 is still very usable today (with Android 9 ROM), but it's a good time to upgrade and get to try out NFC.
