4x is like slightly above entry level

It punches above it's weight pretty well for the price tho

Tbh I'll just stick with the rn4x for two years anyways and stop reading phone news

Oh yeah, how is Lineage on RN4X?

seems like all the remaining parcels were put on the same plane and arrived today

got another confirmation a parcel hit NZ

I'm on stock lol

I know a few people who run lineage on the RN4X and they really like it. It's a really good ROM to be fair

@tinytaco I ran it on my RN3

It was bloody attrocious

My camera stopped working after day 2

hmm

I'll ask the android discord again

what benefits do I really get over MIUI tho

A non shit UI is a pretty big benefit

@Cad it's what the phone was supposed to run

miui is good

MIUI isn't really shitty and stock Android is actually pretty overrated, even Google's shipping Pixel shit over stock Android

It's better than EMUI, that's it's only selling point

i do own a pixel so I am a part time pixel shill

@Sham good but you need open camera or google camera and the battery life prediction on November monthly is broke

I just wish MIUI had at least an option to autosort apps better

miui has better battery life because it has aggressive power saving measures

use a different launcher

The only thing that turns me off Xiaomi are the cameras but the Google mod does seem to fix some of that

I used to use T-UI with a custom solarized theme lmao

open camera works as well if you're a fossautist but the problem with HDR+ on OC is that it takes 3 pictures and *saves four onto your phone* when you just want the one resulting photo

gcamera doesn't do this but open camera has a bunch of crazy ass features that I like

also open camera only runs in sideways orientation regardless of how you force it, and the controls are in portrait

if you open your app switcher from open camera, your app previews and switcher will also be sideways

You just need a balance of gcam and opencamera

can someone make that

I think you need to disable "app optimization" for that particular app

but that didn't really work for me with my sleep tracking app

yeah

zzz

my only experience is with miui8 so I'm not sure if the whole battery optimization thing was addressed in miui9

also miui apps are botet

what battery optimization thing

I noticed apps like pedometers don't really work, you mean background apps like that?
