1 - Very good people, I comment. Since a while ago I turned off the Bluetooth only, I have it connected to a Mi Band2 ...

2 - I can not change the volume of the notifications, they sound very very little. It only lets me change the volume of the tone, multimedia and alarm, but none of them corresponds to the one of notifications.

I carry Rom Global 8.5.1.0

Any solution?? another bug to the basket, apart from the volume problem in the headphones: /

Hi,

i hade very similar problems with my Huawei watch 2.

My solution is going to Security app/Battery usage/App battery saver and go to Android wear and set-No restrictions....you can go to Mi fit app and set-No restrictions. Problem with bluetooth on our Mi 6 phone is because Security app and battery saver killing process in background.

My charging port got burned by the cable that came in the box, and I have looked all around to find the port so i can fit a new one.

I found a lenovo zuk z2 one but i am not sure whether it will work, even though the serial numbers are the same. Can someone help me?

here is the link of the item. It looks exactly like the one that the PRO uses, but just that the serial number is different. Has anyone else had a same issue like mine?

Thanks

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] talk2indrajit:
Lovely phone indeed :)
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] 3545alg:
This is a great phone especially for the money. I use the Apex launcher and that makes it even better. The only real criticism I have is that the cameras are a little iffy. Some pictures are not as sharp as others. I give the overall phone five stars. Maybe an update would fix the minor camera problem. The only other problem is that I really like the fingerprint sensor on the back. Using the various screen lock apps makes the phone wake up needing the password. The fingerprint sensor simply doesn't work using a screen lock app.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Kedharnadh:
I loved this phone however there are some bugs like dialer is not a google one eventhough it is a AndroidOne phone and there are some bugs with cellular network.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] robgee789:
mynonly issue is the camera but i dont too many photos so im not that bothered, and the rest of the phone is great
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] matrixtheneo25:
Nice Camera in its range but do need bit more improvement.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] kasdaman:
It's been less than 2r4 hours and so far I am loving this phone. A great device at a great price point.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] birdie:
Pluses:

+ Pure Android (7.1.2 at the moment)

+ Timely updates (not really, Android 8.0 was released months ago and there's no sign of it)

+ Relatively fast and bloat free

+ 3.5mm audio jack

+ Price at Chinese etailers (~$210)

+ Dual SIM or single SIM + microSD

Minuses:

- In low light conditions the camera sucks completely and video recording is just awful; also no OIS or EIS

- Snapdragon 625 severely underperforms

- Huge bezels

- No stereo speakers

- Automatic brightness on my device doesn't work correctly - the phone is too dim in a bright environment and too bright in a dim environment

- No kernel sources yet - really Xiaomi??

IOW we need Nexus to be resuscitated. Pixels are too expensive.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] ltf_195:
Simple, smooth, no bloatware.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] ewoks:
Pretty satisfied!!!

Great value for money
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] tinyXperia:
I feel it is a solid phone, but the design is boring. Probably after 5 years you won't have many memories about this phone, whereas some people have fond memories of other phones (like many people had about old Nokias or Walkman phones).
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] wawing_b:
1. awesome value for money

2. love the build quality

3. fast + smooth + stock OS

4. great storage capacity

5. the camera is so so.. it could do so much more with the proper software (side loaded with GCam HDR+)

and this MiA1 is my daily warrior until 2 years ahead
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] ajlir:
Love it.

'Nuff said
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] iMewo:
I'm really happy with what I've got AUD 280 including tempered glass and delivery. Great screen and it does what I need.

I dun understand why ppl crazy abt bezeless phones ... wat I know it's gonna hurt (spider web screen) so much once it dropped.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] boygav:
I think it's terrific. Best phone I've used since the OnePlus One. No idea about the camera as I haven't used it (and probably won't use it much even when I get round to it - I'm a man in his 40s, not a selfie-obsessed teenager), but it does everything I need.

It's nice and light, build quality looks good, monthly security patches and Android updates before just about any other phone on the market. For 165 quid, it's outrageous value. Love it.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] nicolasmart:
This is the best phone for me - it can give EVERYTHING a developer wants. The Chipset supports Machine Learning SDKs, the device has a Dual camera system which serves waaaay more than enough if you don't shoot 24/7. The performance is great and Android One serves the best software experience. The device feels a lot more expensive and premium than it is.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] robgee789:
I'm very very happy with this phone now it has oreo, I'm not one to moan about waiting for update and this was worth the wait because they fixed the multi touch sensitivity problem so all is good here

If you people see your phone as a loving figure, you need to get a life (and a girlfriend) already.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] naturalfarmer:
You can love anything in life and as many and as much as you wish... It's a choice. There are no rules. Grow up kido.

And I also love this phone, almost everything about it. Except a little squeek sound when I squeeze it... My bad luck! [emoji39]

Did I say I LOVE IT??? ???
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Naveenrathour:
Nice experience overall after become a beta tester
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] chester_00:
Hi, I really love this phone, it's my first Xiaomi phone. I sold on my ebay my samsung s7 edge with broken screen and the battery only gave me 3 hours of screen, so it was a good decision to sell it.

I am very happy with the performance on this Mi A1, maybe the camera is something I miss about my s7 edge but THANKS TO @ Arnova8G2 the camera has improved a lot.

So it was an excellent purchase
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
Full disclosure: I do not use the phone to play games, watch videos, or other things that are high drain activities requiring lots of processing power. As a result, this phone is very much attuned to how I use a phone. It is fast enough and has enough memory. I read books on my tablet or computer. I play games on my computer. I watch videos on my computer and/or my TV. The screen real estate on a phone is too small for me to want to read books, play games or watch videos, and I don't want to carry a small tablet as a phone.

I came from Samsung and Apple phones, and I gotta say, value for money, this phone rocks!

Samsung was forever behind in updates/patches and no OS upgrades unless you bought their top $$$ phones, and the bloatware was just ridiculous! (My Note 10.1 2014 NEVER got an update from KitKat, and the security patches were 1.3 years old when it finally gave up the ghost)

Apple build quality has gone off the rails in my opinion, and for what you pay for those phones, value for money is horrible. (6s lasted 14 months of LIGHT usage. 2 months out of warranty, bricked)

The A1 costs ~1/4 the cost of an iPhone, so even if it only lasts 14 months (I'm looking at you Apple) then I can buy another one and still be way ahead.

Android One: OS Upgrades and timely security patches

Excellent build quality on mine

Very good battery life

Oreo! (I'm looking at you Samsung)

4GB RAM and 64GB ROM for what most companies charge for 2/3 and 32!

Downside:

The camera. I was really hoping that the dual lens camera would be at least VERY good. It's ok, but nothing to write home about. Hopefully this can be resolved with software in the future.

An I/R blaster app that requires basically unlimited permissions? Why? It would be useful if I dared use it.

I liked mine so much that after using it for 3 months, I bought a red one for my wife! Oh, and SHE likes it too, even if it isn't an Apple. ;)

I like good price/performance ratios in things I buy, and I feel the A1 gives me a very good price/performance ratio! Yeah, I DO like it, a lot.

Mi Remote

I was blown away on how good the IR remote control is implemented with the Mi Remote app.

I was able to add a rather old TV and air conditioning in my bedroom. Now I do not need to find the remote control. I just use my phone to control those appliances. :good:

Amazing that my smartphone can be used as a universal remote control.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
I agree that the app would be very useful. My concern is why it needs almost unlimited permissions to do IR controls.

To update, it wants these permissions:

Device and app history

Identity

Contacts

Location

SMS

Photos/Media/Files

Camera

Microphone

Wi-fi connection info

Bluetooth connection info

Device ID & call info

It's an app to replace remote controls for appliances. Why does it need to be so snoopy? I don't wear a tinfoil hat, but this is a Chinese phone, and it seems that this app can pretty much know everything about you and your phone if you use it and grant these permissions.

--KB
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] slawa:
That is often the problem with Chinese apps. They just get all permissions even if they do not use them. But you can go to android settings and retract all those permissions from that app.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Jaggerjacquez:
Because shady chinese crappy apps.

---------- Post added at 07:36 PM ---------- Previous post was at 07:33 PM ----------

Love it or not, but still I don't sleep with the phone next to me tho.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
I went ahead and did the update, then went into app permissions. I had the old app locked down to storage, and apparently, the limited permissions were inherited by the update as even though it said it needed all of those permissions, it only had storage turned on in app permissions. Now, if it actually RESPECTS the permissions limits, we're good.

[MENTION=8885743]KB_Thailand[/MENTION] This one worked for me when I wanted to figure out which app makes connections to a certain domain:

Network Log by Pragmatic Software https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.googlecode.networklog
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
Thanks for the answer mrslawa. :) Evidently you were answering as I was deleting the question. I am trying out NetGuard and will see how it works out. I will also try your suggestion. I just need a lightweight logger that will give me the connections so I can research them if such a thing exists. ;) NetGuard may be overkill for what I actually am looking for, so I will look at Network Log too.

Regards,

--KB

EDIT: It appears that Network Log requires root, so it won't work on my stock A1.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] LouisMuruu:
In love with it. My second wife now. ?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] munrobasher:
Don't normally rave about devices but after umming and ahhing for months whether to get this on import or wait for Motorola to fix the camera on the G5 Plus, I finally went for it. Never have I been happier with value for money. Bought it for the camera as my old HTC One M8 (which simply stopped working) had a mediocre camera. Love it!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] nahuelvvn:
Completely love it... coming from a Samsung A7 2016... Xiaomi beats the Samsung in every single item but the battery life. Even the camera, by far. Top quality build and premium design, for less than 200 bucks... by far the best value for money I ever had in a phone.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] MCamerino:
I really like this device.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] :
This is my first Xiaomi device and I love it. I considered buying Note 5 Pro instead but coming from a Nexus 5 I realised MIUI isn't my cup of tea.

Xiaomi + Android One is really a good combination. I love its smooth UI, loud speakers and headphone volume and quality. The cameras are great too.

Overall solid 4 out of 5.

How bad is the GPS in real life map navigation, since this phone doesn't have a compass?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Jaggerjacquez:
Exactly the question that I got in mind.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] lelozerien:
The GPS works very well and the phone has a compass. I don't understand your question. :confused:
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Carzah:
Is that the Global or Chinese (5X) version? GSMArena only lists a compass for the 5X.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] lelozerien:
MI A1 has got a compass. MIA1 is an android one device not MIUI. It's a kind of MI5X without MIUI (android one instead) and sure global.

MI A1 have exactly the same hardware as the MI5X.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
GPS is pretty much flawless on mine, as is the compass.

A couple of free Playstore apps I use for you to check out:

GPS Location: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.ex.jo.jogpstracking

Compass: https://play.google.com/store/apps/details?id=com.simplywerx.compass3d

I use both and find them to be pretty accurate. Your needs may vary. :)

Hope it helps.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] skoogee:
Amazing phone and excellent design.

i moved from onePlus5T that drove me mad to this device and i cannot be happier
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
When I first got the Mi A1 back in October, I was very happy with it. However, after seeing how Xiaomi has been with updates and bugs, I doubt I will buy another one. I will definitely look for a phone with a larger battery next time as the updates to Oreo seems to have seriously impacted battery life. If this phone had a 4000mAh battery vs. the 3000mAh one it has, and camera2api was enabled by default, I would still be pretty happy with the phone. But when 20% of the battery drains overnight when nothing is in use, and the camera is dumbed down to give you a reason to buy more 'advanced' models, something is not right. So, an Android One device with a decent soc, a good camera, and a fairly large battery will be the criteria for my next device. My understanding is that the A2 will probably have the same battery, and no word on the camera api, so probably not going to be my next device. After using the A1 for 7 months, I would only rate the overall experience at around 65% satisfaction.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] datasource:
Something must be not right with your device. I haven't experienced none of those issues and i'm 100% happy with my mi A1. Of course i've flashed a custom rom/kernel.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] TrueMS:
I dont know what do people do with their Mi A1s, because I use the latest OS and I've got no bugs and problems with it. Im moderate user, I play games like PUBG, watch YouTube, use Messenger and I have got absolutely no problem. Battery is about 6-7 hours of SoT and camera is just awesome for this price. Love this device!
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] KB_Thailand:
As I said, when I first got the A1 I was quite satisfied with it. For the first 5 months, battery life was good and pictures were ok, but not great. But starting with the April update (I think it was April) the battery is just draining really quickly. I could get 2-3 days of battery before, and now I am lucky to last a full day. And this is with very light usage! I charged the phone yesterday, and in less than 24 hours needed to charge it again. 2 hours of SOT, 3 short phone calls and 3 text messages were all that was done in that time, yet between Android system and RCS Phone it used 50% of the battery! The next largest drain was Chrome at 8%. No settings i have tried has done much to increase battery life. Battery health is reported as good, and it charges to within 6% of spec: 2920mAh vs. specs 3080 according to GSam. So yeah, something definitely is not right, but it appears to be software and not hardware and I cannot figure out any one thing that is causing the issue. I would disable RCS but am afraid that Skype and Line calls actually use it, and I do use both. I may try disabling it and seeing if it makes a difference and if these calls still work.

As for the stock camera, it is ok in well lit scenes, but struggles with reduced lighting. I have read many reports here that just enabling camera2api helps the quality a lot. So why does Xiaomi not enable camera2api by default to give us the best results? Many people have done this and report it works fine. I see no reason for that decision other than protecting the higher end phones, and that does not denote the customer being first.

Yes, this is a mid range phone, but I still expect it to work well, and am pretty disappointed that updates break what was working fine. I don't want to have to load custom roms to get decent performance, and based on reading here, there are many other issues with custom roms. I just want a phone that works well, all of the time, for a couple of days. I don't need to have to constantly mess with it and tweak it and prefer plain stock if it works.

[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] rovinnewman:
I love my MI A1

Yes, I love my MI A1. I had One Plus One before and it got stolen but then I bought this phone. Hesitant to buy this phone in the beginning and I was also considering other phone but I think the dual camera might have pushed my decision for this phone. Now I feel very satisfied with this phone in this price range. I didn't need huge specification and huge price but I think I have got the best in this range.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] billis2020:
Mi A1 is a very fast and awesome phone(the best at its price range). The thing is that xiaomi limited it A LOT. They delayed updates, the didnt enable eis and camera2 api(And this is supposed to be a camera phone if you take a look at android's one site!), no fast charge even if it supports fast charge 3.0(the fastest so far) etc.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Jaggerjacquez:
Well it's xiaomi. What do you expect?
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] TrueMS:
MIUI phones are just perfect and I wanted to try Android One from Xioami and I am a little bit sad about it. Phone is powerful, can run PUBG without any problem, battery life about 6 hours of SoT. But the android OS is really cut. It is missing a lot of features and especially the camera API. Im just curious how long will it take to update to Android P after it comes out - and let me guess, it will take months to upgrade and that's what I really dont like. I prefer phones which have fast updates and latest security fixes and not updates delayed. And excuse me? Newest version of Oreo 8.1 doesnt pass SafetyNet? Thats just sad... But I still love the phone's price, power, display and battery life. But if I could, I would switch to another phone with similar specs with MIUI, just like Mi5X.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] Jaggerjacquez:
Then u should have bought mi5x then. Or install miui (if possible) If u like miui.

I don't like miui. P is around the corner. N this phone just got a buggy 8.1 update. oh well who knows when P will arrive for this device.

N xiaomi don't always update their OS (Android version) on all their phones which run miui. So there's that.
[Xiaomi Mi A1 Real Life Review] pattiandy:
I had just gotten so sick of the same ol S8s and high end LG phones a few years back, I wanted something different. 200 didnt seem to bad of a risk. Glad I did...
