Xiaomi customization is such a JOKE
Here we go. I've been awaken up until 00:00 just to spam clicking the "Apply for unlocking" for 1 minute straight, just for it's saying "cOuLn'T aDd, plEase go to mI coMmUnity tO aPpLy fOr auThor..." LIKE I SWEAR, I HAVE DONE THIS THING LIKE HUNDRED TIMES. I already paid an whole hour internet pack to do it, and it's just straight wasting times and money.
Like, I just should not upgrading to HyperOS 2, so I can unlock bootloader the simpler way (alternative sketchy INSTANT method), instead waiting 30 days, stay up one night, panic at 12:59:59 PM, fail and try again for a week, and wait another 3 days. Like, what it is, Xiaomi? I really think your OS is about customization, but it's end up like trashhh. An sketchy hidden gem, like giving blur to recent views by adding some random value with Setedit, and whatever in the internet is.
So after an whole 3 months, I want to share about my thoughts on my brand new Xiaomi phone, and this is why you should never paying for that thing. It's just incredibly frustating.
No customization, privacy, and freedom at all. Anything is feels so time wasting and so buggy in HyperOS, and the more upgraded the OS, the more your phone get locked. Want to give this app access? Wait 30 seconds, and don't forget to check the checkbox. Want to find the apps where you want to enable that setting? Haha, good job with the random sorting.
Ads in their all default apps, broken navigation bar with custom launcher. I really feels like scammed, bruh. Since then, I traumatized to buy an Xiaomi phone again. Especially, I buy this phone with my own money, so this is really dissapointing. I have paid a lot of icon packs, and widgets, to make them unusable in my brand new phone!
Like, I have my old Samsung phone, and every time I see it, with the custom launcher, icon packs, I was like it's just feels even more modern than my brand new one. Even with it's very lacking in processor, RAM, and storage, but with that UI, I feel like I don't want to go. But now, I was like just want an simple phone as usual, I can use custom launchers, I don't need a big storage, I don't playing games. I just want something like that.
Please Xiaomi, I didn't care even one percent about how my phone will be not "secured" after the bootloader unlocked. Okay, you have the app, the service, to unlocking it, but why it's should be really really specific? If I just can unlock it in 00:00:00 straight, then say it. And are we really really need to use our mobile data instead WiFi, for literally JUST ADD THE ACCOUNT? It's very unusual and useless. But please, what even the benefits with using such an specific time? WHY DON'T JUST LET ME APPLYING THE TIMES WHEN I WANT? Like, giving an review notes, maybe?? And then, I can peacefully sleeping, while just waiting my account approved, why don't things just like that??
What whould be in future? Sold my kidney to unlocking my bootloader? Sending all my education raports as PDF, minimum 10, and wait another 1 year? You're ain't an monopoly company, Xiaomi. Don't you understand? Oh yeah, I'm too lazy to contact them, so I just create this post like they're enver heard.
TLDR; I would never ever interested in Xiaomi things again. buggy, lack of customization, and too much rely on luck. Oh god, whatever the spec you give, the cheapest price you give, just never.
Ah, I really needed to sleep. Time to powering off this pho
