Hi guys,


I flashed Xiaomi EU rom a week ago coming from chinese rom in hope of better battery life, but it's even worse. I get max 5h of SOT with minimal graphic settings (FHD+ and 60Hz, no 5G) all I do is reddit / news apps / messengers. Battery health says "good"

What can I even do? Im so disappointed by Xiaomi and the Mi 11 in general...

My only guess would be bad cellular reception
Whenever i am in a bad reception area, regardless of the device i am using my battery drains quickly.

I get 7 sot on good reception area (fhd/120)
And get 4.5/5 sot in bad recetion areas
 
I am on Mi 11 Pro with a little more battery capacity and I am also disappointed from the SOT.

I would prefer to have a throttled 888 or a manual switch to throttle the SOC to improve battery life for daily driver.

Also I don't like how the automatic screen brightness is adjusting itself. In almost all cases it is way too bright.
I liked my LG G6 which was absolutely on point with the ambient light sensor and screen brightness.

My 11 Pro has 4-5h SOT only with Chrome, messaging and very little useage of camera & navigation.
