Just updated my Redmi note 10 pro ( global) to MIUI 13 (13.0.4.0) ( android 12 based) and it feels just the same thing.
– no new widgets, just a music and weather one which are really ugly.
– battery lasts like 30 minutes longer.
– RAM usage and management is garbage, multitasking has got just a little better.
– Camera improved just a little bit, but gcam still is way better.
– no new functions (the only one i got is one hand mode , and it works awfully bad)
– no super wallpapers even if before updating it said ( new crystalized super wallpaper).
– visual effects remain the same, no new animations.
– phone feels just a little smooth, but nothing crazy.
– dark mode stoped working for some apps.
– the “””NEW””” control center still is laggy
– some privacy settings are appreciated, there’s more control of what I can share.
There are more things to discuss, but so far , this new version feels just exactly like MIUI 12.5, Xiaomi is promoting MIUI 13 as a big change when is just a big bag of nothing that could’ve been something like MIUI 12.6 , they are just selling smoke.
Other OS such as OneUi / iOS and colorOs had x100 more interesting stuff to bring.
Ask me something if you want to know more about MIUI 13
Please note my phone was updated via OTA and it’s the official stable update, not beta / mi pilot or Early version.
Would recommend to switch to a custom ROM , but things such as google payments, bank apps, some hardware compatibility might be limited or removed.
DONT UPDATE TO MIUI 13 , keep your MIUI 12.5 until Xiaomi decides to fix this “new” version in 8 months…
What interesting stuff did those other OS’s bring?
More privacy settings, better optimization, actual visual changes, camera app enhancements, working usability improvements, good system customization, working themes (dynamic theming) , new animations, many bug fixes, system apps redesign, gestures improvement.
Should i continue?
Which UI was that?
Just wondering because you threw iOS in your list. And the UI has barely changed since inception.
But personally I could go back to Android 7.1, (with a 3rd party launcher), without any problem because the focus of new Android versions seems to be about tying down privacy and security rather than new functionality.
Anyway to get back on topic I recall that dynamic theming libraries were only made available to OEMs last week so it’ll come to all platforms soon enough.
And if you can’t wait then there are also third party alternatives if you’re happy to root.
banking apps work on pixel experience and pixel os
you just need to open magisk app enable zygisk enable denylist and enforce denylist
then add gplay services and banking apps to denylist
reboot and baam your banking apps work
op is talking about android 12
Yeah that’s kinda my point. Android 12 doesn’t really bring much new to the table.
it does
brand new ui with every app redesigned
matierial you
and tons of features
Well I’m still using A11 on my daily so I’ll take your word for it , but have access to all the usual custom ROMs that have released A12 builds and I don’t see anything compelling or important for usability.
I guess that’s why I’m curious as to what the OP was expecting.
And if MIUI doesn’t offer it then he should take advantage of the plethora of custom ROMs that are available for Xiaomi devices.
Yeah there’s nothing new in this “MIUI 13” update that comes with Android 12, not even basic Android 12 stuff such as color palettes or widgets, everything is the same. Are they really going to do the same thing like making MIUI 13.5 and 13.5 EE like last year?
Im using xiaomi & samsung, and comparing both ui, one ui is just better, they literally put some effort in one ui 4 like applying new Android 12 features (widgets, color palettes, and many more), the whole ui is faster and a lot more stable than miui, one ui feels more well baked ui, it does have some bugs but it’s not as bad as miui, at least they didn’t remove basic feature every update like miui did….
Edit : if you want to know how buggy miui has become, xiaomi literally publicly apologize for miui 12, and they promised the fix in miui 12.5, and it doesn’t seem to fix anything when 12.5 came out, then they did the same thing again with 12.5 enhanced edition, and same results, and there’s this miui 13, you all know how this is going to be…
Custom roms all the way, all of the things you mentioned have solutions
Can you please list what all privacy protection features are there in MIUI 13?
And then hope it works. It’s a lot of effort for something that works about 50% of the time, sadly. (Speaking as soneone who has tried this multiple times and never had it work)
Xiaomi becomes a piece of garbage!
Why just not use magiskhide?
MY FUCKING ASS MIUI 13 UPDATE WAS FUCKING DISAPPEARED !
Gesture support with third party launchers? Is this restored?
magiskhide no longer exist
Is there live captions ?
Asking why you say to keep in 12.5 because the only bad things you mentioned is that you didnt get alot of new features , but did get some things like longer battery life and the new control center
No, sadly the support on third party launchers it’s still awful when it comes to system compatibility.
No, there isn’t live captions (haven’t tried switching regions to see if it works)
They have become a mediocre company when it comes to software.
Just selling smoke and presenting minimal improvements and showing it like total innovation
Consider yourself blessed for that.
it 100% of the time works…
Didn’t work for me, so it’s at least only 99%.
Does it work? 12.5 onwards it’s simply not supported
My Redmi note 10 pro can’t take screenshot after the MIUI 13 update…
I’ve updated my phone to a new MIUI 13 and my redmi note 10 pro can’t take a screenshot or just a take a picture from the camera.
Anyone else with the same problem?

so you mean like apple has been doing for what, their entire lifetime now?
They keep releasing new devices in every month honestly, there’s mi, redmi, poco, not to mention china exclusive, india exclusive, and many more, not to mention all of those are just rebranding, it’s literally the same device but with a different name…
Back then the lineup was just like redmi 4/4 prime, redmi 4a, redmi 4x, redmi note 4/4x, and this is for all region, and we have good software support
And now they want to make the 5g version of the note 11s, note 11 series is already too much (note 11, note 11s, note 11 pro, note 11 pro 5g), and there’s that china one that got released first, man what is this company has become, been using xiaomi since redmi 2 came out and this is just madness, too much devices causes lack of software support
Nope
denylist does the same thing as magisk hide in pixelos/pixel experience (i dunno about other roms tho)
it always works
you must have done something wrong
you need magisk 24.1, enforce denylist
also some other roms dont have basic attensation forced so you need universal safteynet fix module
I’ve always used magiskhide:p
Oh yeah on v24 it doesn’t but v23 gets the job done just fine tbh
Reject virgin ch\*nese spy/malware, become a [Lineageos](https://lineageos.org/) enjoyer!
Oh no ok thanks for your reply.
>visual effects remain the same, no new animations.
xiaomi already has some of the best animations though???? why tf would you want this to change?
well at the very least Xiaomi still provide us easy to cusrom device, unlike other companies…
still doesn’t excuse their shitty software tho.
I hate Apple as a company and I think their phones are overpriced crap that only gives “social status”, but I have to say apple pays attention on their software, I’m forced to use apple because a client’s tool that only works on iOS, and I have to say , each update at least gives certain improvements on a visual / software way.
Also, the crapple phone I use was released like 5 years ago and still gets updates which is amazing considering how old it is, and Xiaomi only updates the newer phones , most of Redmi and gen 7-8-;9 (rn7 , rn8 , mi9) are not getting more updates.
Except for their mediatek devices
it is the same thing if your using pixel experience/pixelos
Get yourself a custom ROM like ArrowOS which also already has Android 12 support! I can highly recommend it
eh, depends on the phone, I think. Redmi Note 8 Pro (Mediatek G90T) have decent custom Rom support.
I’m stuck at 12.0.11 android 10, didn’t recieve any update since i bought my phone 2 months ago. i have (Mi 10t global version) and it supposed to recieve miui13 . any help guys? i dont want to update manually 😟.
11T so could take a while
can confirm for lineageos
Updated yesterday to miui 13 (phone xiaomi mi 11). The onscreen fingerprint unlocks way faster and less false negatives !! everything feels a little quicker but it can be my imagination. No problems so far…. no comments on battery life yet
>Camera improved just a little bit, but gcam still is way better.
Which gcam are you using? (xml and libs?)
Is the AOD fixed or is it still only at 10 seconds?
I’m Using BCG 8.1 with XML monster ( some Brazilian .XML I found on gbclube ), also using Nikita version with say hi pro xml for certain scenarios.
I don’t use AOD, but I tried it to see how long it lasted, it seems it doesn’t turn off, it was 5 active with no issues at all , will try to check if it has a limit and I’ll tell you
The partial screenshot stoped working for me ( i think I need to enable it again using additional settings option but haven’t tried)
Hey I enabled the partial screenshot but it still doesn’t work and it isn’t just a partial screenshot I can’t make screenshot by tapping volume button and power button it do the screenshot and then it show this I would really appreciate your help if u can help me.
have the same phone and still havent gotten the update, is it a regional thing?
Yeah, usually Xiaomi deploys OTA updates regionally and on “phases” , it’s a selective thing, sooner or later you’ll get the update if your phone is scheduled.
İs there 3rd party icon pack support?
So can you use 3rd party launcher with gesutres now or not? Can u even switch to some other launchers? On MIUI 13
I mean, you can use third party launchers but gestures and other functions stop working, the only launcher that works moderately good is the poco launcher.
So sad i like miui and xiaomi
But im thinkin to changee to other brand for my next phone
Can confirm it improved by 10-15%
Just updated mine too and already regretting my decision. I discovered major bug where double tap to wake sometimes bypasses the lockscreen and went straight to homescreen. Its already happened 4-5 times since I updated yesterday. Already tried factory reset and still same issue.
Another issue I found is the game turbo pops out when I swipe at the right side of the screen which interferes some button in games.
Really wouldn’t recommend anyone to update to this version right now.
Xiaomi.eu rom has very little bugs, use that
Thank you
Some of the transition animations on my phone (RN10Pro) are 60hz even though my refresh rate is set to 120. It’s really annoying and I’ve got absolutely no idea what’s causing it.
I regret buying xiaomi… So far I have noticed:
* Battery dies pretty quickly compared to my old one plus, so looks like all the cleaner apps are just eating battery or something.
* X-button in app switcher doesn’t close all apps but leaves one app always open. So annoying and never seen this behavior in any phone before.
* Bluetooth headset doesn’t control phone volume ie it is not auto adjusted. (googled disabling this option would help but I can’t find it anywhere)
So few annoying things that make the phone really bad. I should have trusted my instincts and buy motorola instead.
where can I take partial screenshots?
Edit: found it
what version of Gcam is good for the redmi note 10 pro?
That’s probably because you MIUI optimization is turned off
there is a lock button, unlock it, then you can close the rest also with x
I can not turn off stabilization anymore in the camera app. It’s cropping too much sometimes 🙁 footage looks like 720 p when filming in 1080p
Do you have smart replies enable? For some reason this function is not working for me
So much crying in this thread
On 11t is super bad.
Randomly it becomes super laggy and you have to reboot the phone, other times just crashes and auto turn off.
Now i cant record the screen.
Don update :c
There is no lock button?
Gcam version I installed was crap for my note 10 pro suggest me a good version
After the update feels like my phone got slower,new indicator(camera usage indicator) just bugs all time,there is some weird animation going when i try scroll at either end of page of browsers or youtube,feels half baked
edit; now when I recieve phone calls it doesnt show up just ringtone keeps on going no way to reject/accept calls,it just keeps on ringing bull-sh!t
press and hold the app when you are at that screen, then you will see lock/unlock icon
Well i dont want to use my f***ing redmi note 10 pro. Next phone will be xiaomi civi 1s
Miui 13 cast wont work, if Xiaomi is going to keep making mistake than this is my last phone from Xiaomi
My notification shade is just stuck on like 24 FPS
What the actual f?
Why is it so buggy and how can i revert back to 12.5
Also if anyone noticed
Chrome no longer opens in floating window
Having now had Android 12 on 3 different devices I don’t think the bugs are down to MIUI, they’re down to Android 12. The bugs I have encountered across all devices are
Keyboard not coming up, open a text box and can select everything EXCEPT the keyboard, I usually have to restart to sort this.
Navigation bar not visible, again usually a restart to sort this issue although sometimes swiping down the notification pane fixes it but it’s rare.
Browser freezing, Chrome, Opera, Samsung Browser and MIUI browser do this to me. Again the only fix seems to be a reboot
All of them were more common with my Pixel 4XL but they’re definitely there, I do like MIUI 13 and came from a clean install for MIUI 13. Used to flash custom ROMs weekly so I live with the bugs, ill probably go back to the pixel when Android 13 is available via OTA
idk the control center’s same for me
I thought the option for both mic and system audio in screen recording to use will be available in miui 13, I’m so disappointed.
Hi
When I turn Focus mode on, I still hear notification sounds of blocked apps.
Any solution?
