Xiaomi 14T reviews by real users Xiaomi 14T

Jumping from a budget Samsung phone to this one, which is close to a flagship experience, it honestly shocked me to have a phone as good as this ever in my life. From out of the box, this phone is genuinely amazing compared to many other phones in the same price range (Honor 200, Oppo Reno 12 Pro and Samsung Galaxy A55). However, if you're like me, who demands a lot from the operating system then you won't feel as satisfied after around a few months of using the phone. For one, I was already used to One UI, One UI (in my opinion) is the best Android skin of all time with how they have the customization, features and the freedom of the OS, compared to 14T's HyperOS which locks the bootloader to pretty much impossible to open, lack of many basic essential features, system ads, the 10-second countdown every time you touch a setting that is just slightly sensitive and has tons of bloatware. For two, Xiaomi's release date for HyperOS has not been so promising, particularly for pushing updates way after it's promised release date and the lack of public beta testing unlike what Samsung is doing with One UI 7.

My final conclusion is that if you don't care much about the operating system and just want a phone that is powerful and can handle a few graphics demanding games as well as a fantastic camera, you should get this phone. Otherwise you'd be better off with phones from OnePlus, Samsung or maybe even Honor.
