Xiaomi Mi Max

[jazzman80]

i was attracted to s7 edge,sold it within couple of days as it failed to satisfy me with its battery.

Quality okay for that price lah. Even high priced phone, one drop, wrong angle of impact also cracks like powder!

One thing for sure that cheap phone is no good is the low light camera shots.....vomit blood one including this Mi Max...!

If you want good low light shots, then you can forget about Mi Max altogether!

Many redmi1 users from 3 years back, upgraded to 2-3 xiaomi subsequent models, most singing praises. Enjoy xiaomi as they slowly up their value chain.

Redmi 1 and Redmi 1S are one good generation of budget phones! A milestone for the Redmi brand~

Is the EU ROM beta version or stable version?

You have a choice of stable or weekly beta version. I am always on weekly beta

Has anyone found a good car mount for the Max? My current one which works with my Nexus 6P won't fit the Max. I searched Qoo10 and most won't fit phones with screen size over 6 inches.

I am using Capdase with extendable side claps . It fits the phone perfectly . Bought many years ago and no idea whether is still around. Try looking for this brand and I am sure my model would had been upgraded by now

This looks cool. Do you need to stick the patch on the phone for this to work?

For those who wants to play with SIM on microSD card stunt.

Tried and failed, too thick cannot go into the slot.

But my sim was the old big sim version, not sure if it made any difference as it is still a strip a metal and a chip below.

I'm using the Samsung car mount. Can fit nicely by "squeezing" it in.

You must use sand paper to make the sim card thin enough to be flush with the sd card, then it will not be as thick. Of course, dun file too much until the metal contact layer.

I think it is neater to stick the plate or patch on the case than the phone.

Very frustrated using TuneIn Radio app on my Mi Max local set!! It kept shutting down after few mins after I turn off screen (intended to let it run in background, listen music via Bluetooth). I've turned on all possible setting/permissions, esp in battery usage, No restrictions & Allow background Location. Can't seem to find anything else to turn on/off to let it run peacefully in background!!
Anyone has any suggestion that I could have missed? Thanks.

Did you try turning off MIUI power saving for the TuneIn app?

Have you tried:

Security > Settings > Battery usage > Set "Clear cache when device is locked" to 'Never'.
