Short term it may impede competitors.

But it forces competitors to "grow up"

Time will tell if such a strategy works out in the long term or backfires spectacularly.

Anyone uses NFC payment on MRT/buses? Is it easy to read? I had Mi10T pro, not very sensitive. Want to check if there is any improvment on latest model.

1) Music playlist does not auto play when Bluetooth is connected to my headphone.

Need to open app to play. Native music app, Spotify etc. I am not sure if there is a setting on app to allow that.

Works for me on buses and train station gantries. Might be slightly better than my previous pixel.

i close the music player app and music stops liao

Oh ok I think I know what you mean.

I just tried.

When you clear all programs the music app gets cleared from memory and music is cut off. My usual Poweramp and Spotify also shuts off when killed from memory.

I think u have to leave it running at the background.

But you still can switch to chrome and surf while the music app is playing at the background.

I guess maybe different OS ? Huawei doesn close all apps and runs music app despite you killing apps from memory.

I wonder how well it works on the mini curve sides and fingerprint reader?

hi all,

been using 15 ultra for more than a month now... have two questions need ya advice.

1. the battery doesn't seem to be good, to be honest. I'm on the battery protection mode so it charges to 80% max. but strangely, sometimes despite that, it'll charge above 80%, even above 90%. seems like a bug? and, every time, within 1 minute after plugging out, it'll drop 1% immediately (say from 80% to 79%) even when I'm not doing anything with the phone. do ya experience the same?

generally, the phone does not seem to be able to last one whole day. I have to charge every single day - and I don't watch videos or play games on the phone. only mostly browsing and IG.

any tips on how to better improve the battery life? I'm also hesitant to turn off notifications since that's one of the reasons I move away from China ROM phones which I know is aggressive in terms of saving battery by turning off notifications and killing apps in the background.

2. the factory-pasted screen protector kena a bit of scratching liao. I like the original SP because it's thin and smooth. can I go back to the xiaomi shop to ask them to paste back another factory screen protector? or do ya recommend any good SP for this (oleophobic and smooth)? note: I'm not good at pasting so I will always go to a 3rd party shop to paste but yeah... it's quite expensive each time.

thanks very much :o

Hi, I am using 15 Ultra since launch, gotten it during first batch. Generally battery life gotten worse over the recent updates to HyperOS 2.1, hopefully it gets fixed in HyperOS 2.2. I charge everyday now, which I have gotten used to it, normally I wouldn't recommend going into any battery saving modes or anything as this may cause delayed notifications for important apps.

I replaced the factory screen protector with SmartDevil one, it feels more or less the same as the factory one. They have different kinds, you can see what suits you best, they provide guiding frame to attach to the phone to allow for easy installation, no need to worry about misalignment or bubbles.

With the charge to 80% battery protection, the phone will still charge to 100% every fixed number of charge cycles to calibrate the battery meter. This is common among all manufacturers that implement charge to 80% limit not just xiaomi.

The drop to 79% immediately is because the charging stop immediately upon 80%. Checked with battery charging app.
