Xiaomi Mi 9T

biebiebie

Looks like there's a new (updated?) Mi model coming soon.
Same as Mi 9.
Except...
It'll have a larger battery (4000mAh?)
Also a base 128gb model and also a larger 256gb.

Now imho this turns a very good phone into a mouth watering prospect!

Does anyone else have terrible issues with the proximity sensor on the 9T?

When I am on calls my face launches apps, switches back and forth between speakerphone and Mike or worse still activates the camera and starts requesting video from the other side?

I also find sliders on videos (e.g. VLC and YouTube) to be totally unresponsive

And the keyboard is awful too, always undocking itself and always making poor spell check decisions for me

Anyone else HATE their 9T??

I had the exact same proximity sensor issue with my last phone the xiaomi mi 1A but not with this

do you know you can install and use different keyboards ? or is it happening with them all? I like to use Googles own G-Board

Maybe though you should try & get a refund or exchange for a new model ??

Unfortunately no SD card slot

Got mine just over 3wks after ordering. Overall its not quite as good as my old mate20 pro, slightly more lag, camera slower etc, however for less than half the price I can absolutely live with that. I knew that it ships with a slightly slower fast charge block, however I thought I could just use my mate20 block which can support 27w, however turns out that this 27w is only at a higher voltage that the 9t doesn't support, so I was only getting 2amps at 5v using it. The 2pin block that is sent in the box comes with a terrible 3 pin adaptor, it charges at 3amps, anyone got a replacement 3 pin block that will charge the 9t at the full 27w yet, and from where?

not banggood but gearbest selling thr 128gb pro for €335 with coupon GBM9TPRO4. Word of warning though re gearbest .... I ordered the non pro version of the 9t a few weeks ago and following a week was informed that it was out of stock. Took 2 weeks for refund to be processed. I then ordered from geekbuying and after a week was informed that it was out of stock - refund processed the following day.

Have since ordered from banggood and it was shipped the following day - €272 incl delivery

I debloated mine using the ADB/Fastboot tool (here). It works the same as on Pocophone and doesn't require root or unlocked bootloader (just developer options turned on).

I did this too and got rid of google music & movies too
also installed Nova as launcher, makes it feel a lot more like stock android im used to

The Miui OS is just about tolerable for now but does have a bit of bloatware that you can't uninstall.

It's a paid-for app I've been using for years, and does sleep tracking among other things. Not just a simple alarm (magnificent options with that as well).

Did you go into settings...notifications.....lock screen notifications,then click on your sleep app and all the options are there to allow sound,notifications etc on the lock screen

Edit..when.you go into settings>>>notifications there are three screen-like icons on the top of the screen,click the first one (on the left)

Why not just use the clock app that comes with the phone for your alarm? You can snooze it with the volume button (dangerously convenient)

Unusual problem for a mi phone ,my last 2 including my current mi max 2 haven't ( had this problem, hopefully it's sorted

I placed my order with eglobal late on the 8th (so effectively the 9th Oct) and it arrived in the London Hub on the 18th, out for delivery in Ireland on the 22nd. 13 days overall is not so bad, considering the price.

I can also confirm that you get an unopened device, no dodgy firmware or anything like that. It's shipped from hong kong so you get that version which has the UK plug, no messing with travel chargers.

The phone itself is great, blazing fast and the screen looks great. The camera is decent enough but I suspect you need to know what you're doing with the settings to get the most out of it. The Miui OS is just about tolerable for now but does have a bit of bloatware that you can't uninstall. The constant battle between the miui native apps and google apps is a bit annoying, it's hard to know which is better to use sometimes. I'm going to try the Xiaomi EU rom and if that still annoys me I'll install Lineage or Oxygen.

Even though it recommends not to use fingerprint unlock with a screen protector I have both and they work fine (tip - put the screen protector on immediately as you remove the plastic covering that comes with the phone, avoids any dust getting in).

Overall I would highly recommend the phone and eglobal.

Forgot to mention: when I collected it from the skynet delivery place in Santry the girl working there wanted to know if it was a phone and where were they all coming from. She noticed a serious surge in the last few weeks. Must be a popular choice! I gave her the name of the website (eglobal) and as I left she went online to have a look for herself.

Just realised I've been slightly unkind to EGlobalCentral. I thought I ordered on the 21st. I did not.
I ordered at 23:53 on the 22nd, which is basically the 23rd, and the order was dispatched on the 25th and arrived in the London hub at 13:50 on the 28th.

Hopefully it arrives before the weekend, in which case I'll be very happy with the service.

Spotify is working for me, however the home screen on spotify is just blank. I uninstalled and reinstalled, and still the same.

From my reading of threads, a better chance of faulty-phone resolution with Amazon + a faster delivery.

Hi what's difference between one selling on amazon for 260- 330 gbp to one in China sites?

I ordered mine off GearBest a few weeks ago: it came quicker than expected, and without any extra (customs etc.) charges. I ended up paying about 405 euro.

A few days after I ordered it, a work colleague pointed me towards this site (look at the Deals column on the right) via which I could have got it for 330 from GearBest. I see it's now 321.

It's a great phone, by the way.

From reading the thread it seems if you want it quickly honoubuy, you could possibly wait 2-3 weeks off eglobal

I purchased a few days ago off eglobal it still says processing
