Battery drain is also an issue with this version. Early days yet though, so hopefully it'll get sorted soon. Apart from that, good functionality.
Does Anybody Use V8.1.7.0 For Mi5 Yet?

I'm still very wary to use 8.1.7.0. It looks like a limited beta to me; it isn't an official China Stable ROM release, there isn't any thread about its release (not even in beta status) on miui.com... I really wouldn't feel comfortable recommending this ROM as a daily driver yet...

I'm on 8.1.7 and here are my observations:
1. GPS indeed is not as accurate as it was. Also some of the applications have issues with locations, even if they have the right permissions.
2. Mail push is not working anymore for none of the accounts. Only manual refresh grabs the mails from the servers.
3. Phone startup is much faster, memory management much better 1.5 GB free vs 1.1 on 8.1.6.
4. Fresh start up of apps is slower but faster once they are re-opened from memory.
