maybe delete 1 & add again? no harm trying since nothing works? your current screenlock set to fingerprint?

Yes current screen lock is fingerprint, ok later I try adding 1.. but the hassle, all banking apps will need reset again. Sian!

 

[speedknight]

Remember if you add/remove/re-added any biometric. Your bank apps etc that allows logins via biometric it's going to ask you to re-verify

 

[DeepseaG1523]

need to remove app and reinstall and setup again.

else that pesky pin will persist

U mean remove Google wallet and reinstall?

 

[RyanJ]

U mean remove Google wallet and reinstall?

* interestingly * the last time i encountered this fingerprint issue google wallet didn have problems but only singpass and banking apps kenna and insisted on PIN

I am not sure how u can uninstall and reinstall google wallet

Let me try later, if cannot uninstall, perhaps I just clear cache of Google wallet and start brand new

good luck! hopefully can share the outcome

good luck! hopefully can share the outcome

Re-adding a new fingerprint solves the problem.

Delete and install and clear cache Google wallet doesn't help.

Thanks all!

I am considering between a few phones, redmi note 14 pro+, Xiaomi 14t, Xiaomi 14t pro, Xiaomi 15, Poco f7 ultra



My priority must be of the following:

1) 1st of all the display must be good, and less likely to cause eye strain.

2) secondly the processor must be fast.

3) the phone camera must of acceptable quality

4) must be able to easily purchase accessories, I understand that Xiaomi 14t series has a China variant, and Poco f7 series has a China variant as well.

5) battery life must be good, I am always out of battery very soon.

6) I think the Poco f7 ultra lose out in terms of not having e-sim that all.

How does the phone actually compared to my current Xiaomi 13 now, I'm also trying to buy to replace my mother's Poco X3 pro which doesn't support volte and max is 4g only. We are currently using Simba, so I don't think the eSim is much of a concern unless otherwise mentioned.

maybe can consider iqoo from malaysia

Maybe can approach @Alexz_Hong for help? He more knowledgeable on the range of phones to get for your eye straining problem.

Not worth it. Can get Xiaomi 15 ultra at Mister mobile local set for around $1370 during sale period on Shopee.

yo. hmm, xiaomi 15 probably?

1. it is the only one out of all of the options that uses DC-like dimming for the screen for all brightness, which has been the least problematic type of dimming for my eyes. the rest using a combination of DC-like dimming for high brightness, and high frequency PWM for low brightness. though if you're okay with Xiaomi 13, which is 480Hz PWM dimming for low brightness and DC-like dimming for high brighness, the 14T Pro and Poco F7 Ultra might be okay too with 3840Hz PWM dimming in low brightness. But it really depends though since different folks might be sensitive to different things, so better to see in person first then decide. But safest bet i think is still phones with all brightness DC-like dimming imo.

2. Xiaomi 15 and F7 Ultra uses SD8 Elite which is the latest flagship chipset. If you're planing to play graphically intensive games, like Genshin, Wuthering Waves, Zenless Zone Zero, HSR, etc, it is a noticeable improvement even over 8 Gen 3 and D9300+ on the 14T Pro.

3. this one probably only Xiaomi 15 and... maybe 14T Pro got some small chance to be good is my guess. The rest, probably might not even be as good as the Xiaomi 13. Most of the Chinese brands I've used are very very good at separating their high end models and lower end models in terms of camera processing one. So only reserve the good stuff for their high end model. I remember really enjoying the camera on the Xiaomi 13, so my guess is will need Xiaomi 15 if you want something better.

4. Xiaomi 15 CN and global version same dimensions and design, so should be easy... same for poco f7 ultra and k80 pro. 14T Pro and K70 Ultra has same dimensions, but camera bump design is slightly different though so might be a bit harder to find accessories... but it's xiaomi, so likely still won't be too hard ba.

5. Since they nerf the battery size for 14T Pro and F7 Ultra vs their chinese variant, Xiaomi 15 probably also might be one of the better options. SD8 Elite is noticeably more power efficient, plus battery size is actually similar to F7 Ultra. but well, xiaomi 13's battery was really not that great to begin with, so even with 14T Pro and F7 Ultra, will probably see quite a bit of improvement.

6. Xiaomi 15 has esim support ¯\_(ツ)_/¯

Just want to double confirm right, Xiaomi 15 has many Reddit user who complain there is eye strain issues and temporal dithering. So far you are the one who don't face this issue. Of course I know there are a lot of variable like 20-20-20 rule, the settings, type of screen protector. However the I want to eliminate possibility of Xiaomi 15 giving me problems. That is why I'm trying to figure out first. I don't have a budget. Most likely I will go to the shop and try it. However more shop doesn't have F7 ultra for me to try it.

I am just looking for the best.
Currently for my mum I have already pick Xiaomi 14t pro, will use k70 ultra variant as an accessory as well.

Also since you say the rest is not as good as xiaomi 13, I am thinking of recycling this and giving to my mother instead. However I will do a battery replacement and root and jailbreak. Like this it will save my time and trouble to buy two phone at once. However my current battery life is only at 85%. This statistic I can only go to the xiaomi shop and they can give me.

Unique Aging Design Feature​

Following Leica’s classic black painted camera tradition, the phone’s gray frame paint will gradually wear away with use, revealing the underlying metal texture. This innovative design element ensures each device develops its own unique character over time, just like vintage Leica cameras that become more beautiful with age.

simi sai..looks like a beat-up Nokia 3310..stunning? as stunning as Bender's shiny ass!

Xiaomi 15 series, k80/f7 series screen has smaller viewing angle than other brands. I think same with all the xiaomi redmi phones that claim screen brightness of max 3200 nits with 25% coverage.

Is due to the display panel has double layers light amplifier structure. Needs to view straight on 90deg for best image quality. Shift the screen angle too much will become dimmer and slight greenish tint.

Another issues i encountered is the screen auto brightness will cause flickering as it gradually adjust to very low brightness in dim environment. I usually disable auto brightness in dim environment as the lowest screen brightness is too dark to see clearly anyway.

This is Ai generated info may be wrong:

Xiaomi Ecosystem Phones:
Redmi Note 14 Pro+:
As advertised? Mostly, for its price point.
Reality Check: 200MP camera is detailed but ultrawide/macro are weak. Performance can be inconsistent under sustained load. Battery is decent, but 120W charging is its real highlight.
Xiaomi 14T:
As advertised? Generally yes, for its upper-midrange positioning.
Reality Check: Strong performance, good balanced cameras (especially with 2x telephoto). No glaring "not as advertised" issues beyond general software quirks that can affect any Xiaomi phone.
Xiaomi 14T Pro:
As advertised? Good, but some fine print.
Reality Check: Flagship performance is there, and 100W charging is fast. Camera is great, but AI processing can sometimes be overdone. Build quality might not feel as premium as some direct competitors for its price.
Poco F7 Ultra:
As advertised? Very close, especially on display.
Reality Check: Display is genuinely outstanding for eye comfort (high PWM). Performance is flagship-tier. Camera's ultrawide can be disappointing, and some users report Wi-Fi instability or inconsistent battery life (though others report excellent).
Xiaomi 15:
As advertised? Mixed bag, especially for key features.
Reality Check: Significant eye strain complaints on Reddit despite high PWM. Battery life is inconsistent for many users. Can run warm under load. Camera is excellent, but a noticeable "rattle" from OIS can be heard.
Non-Xiaomi Phones:
Samsung Galaxy S25 / S25 Ultra:
As advertised? Mostly, with expected Samsung quirks.
Reality Check (S25): Good all-rounder, but base model camera setup is less versatile (no dedicated telephoto). Performance can throttle under sustained load.
Reality Check (S25 Ultra): Top-tier camera (especially zoom) and performance. Battery life is excellent, but charging is slower than many rivals. Performance throttling under sustained load.
OnePlus 13:
As advertised? Largely yes, though some software optimization issues.
Reality Check: Great display (good PWM), fantastic battery life, top performance. Camera is very good. Some users report inconsistent battery drain after updates or occasional network/notification issues.
Nothing Phone (3):
As advertised? Depends on the marketing angle.
Reality Check: Unique design is a highlight. Performance is good, but not cutting-edge flagship. Camera is generally considered acceptable but lags behind top rivals, especially ultrawide. Some find the new Glyph design less functional.
Google Pixel 9 Pro:
As advertised? Yes, for AI, but not for raw power or eye comfort.
Reality Check: AI features and computational photography are superb. Raw performance is notably weaker than other flagships, and it can heat up/throttle. Crucially, lower PWM dimming (480Hz) often leads to eye strain for sensitive users. Battery life can be inconsistent.
