      I only buy Xiaomi phones because the bootloader is unlockable. The stock UI is eh.

      I have a Realme phone and it came with so much bloatware that I can’t tell. Dozens and dozens of purely unwanted apps that I had to disable almost all of them to get a decent experience.

        Have you tried the Universal Android Debloater?

          Doesn’t it use adb to uninstall/disable unwanted packages? It is manually doable as well, just takes more time via the terminal.

            It does, but the nice thing about UAD is that it comes with lists of bloatware apps for different phone manufacturers, and you can simply uninstall anything from that list without having to worry about breaking something.

      It’s really getting in the way. I got a Xiaomi’s as a backup phone recently because on paper the specs were good. Well, the phone is fast, but the UI…

      I got a Motorola next, probably going to resell the Xiaomi once I’m done migrating

        HyperOS?

        My phone runs MIUI 11 and I honestly found it very good , I had more problems with MIUI Battery optimization though , and battery draining to some extent

        It’s probably the first and the last Xiaomi phone I’ll ever buy though
