Hi there,

I’m not entirely sure I understand the specific issues with the Xiaomi 15 Pro. Could you clarify whether the problems are solely related to notifications and whether they are software-related?

I have the opportunity to purchase one in China, but I’m unsure if unlocking the device would be necessary. In the past, I owned a Xiaomi device that I unlocked and flashed, but I don’t plan to root or unlock my new phones.

Thanks in advance for your help!
 
i own one, not using it yet daily - waiting for screen/lens protectors and better drop resistant case.

i don't think the notifications are/will be an issue

cpu is top.

but there are other things to consider:

-no boot loader unlock (not sure if you need that), not even paid (as of today). that means no android auto and no eSIM. but you have call recording.

-cameras are rated as poor

90 watt hyper charging is turned off by default (to protect the battery?) and works only when display is off/phone not in use

i HATE the curved display, it creates problems for screen protector (together with under-display finger reader, which is not enough fast and accurate for me) and it has finger touch detection issues on all the edges around the display - very annoying
