[Mi 8] [Review] [Weekly Review] MIUI 11 Xiaomi.EU Beta 9.11.21

[ilove_mi8]

Hi MIUIers,

I am starting a new series to discuss what's new and bugs happening in EU beta ROMs. It will be helpful if some of you can report and confirmed the issue here to official Xiaomi.EU website. So without further ado, let's get started!

WHAT'S NEW
1. Redesigned Screen Time settings.
Improve user interface, more details statistics of apps usage time and faster loading time.

2. New bedtime management.
Manage your bedtime sleep with the integration of Mi Health app to analyze sleep cycles.

3. App Categories added into App Drawer.
Now you can add categories in your app drawer.

4. Improved screenshot animation.

5. Reworked animation on press and hold icons on home screen.

6. New camera settings layout.

BUGS FIXED
- None (yet)

REMAINING BUGS
1. Data usage settings do not follow SIM Card choice.

2. Quick snap (Picture/Video) broke.

3. Dynamic font-weight feature broke several third-party apps font boldness (e.g. WhatsApp).

4. Dynamic font-weight feature doesn't work in Second Space.

Overall good update! Includes plenty of new changes and that redesigned Screen Time is pretty cool! I removed the ongoing notification bugs that make AOD screen keep glowing as it seems to be fix on last week's updates!

1. It only change the settings layout placement for Camera

2. No you can still use either both SIM for data connection, but the Data Usage statistics in Settings will only appear for SIM 1 not SIM 2.

Thanks for the review, and the amount of time that you spent creating it.

Yes it's definitely an improvement. however, there are still a lot more bugs, more than listed. Although it seems that you can create category or at least change the name of categories, you can't because it doesn't save.

Next when you add apps to categories they should disappear from the list just as they do with Nova. Widgets are not resizable.

Anyone here with a VoLTE provider? Since miui 11/ android 10 there's no icon in the tray. VoLTE is working though but the icon is still missing...
