A lot of people are saying they suffer the same and me and my friend have completely different devices with different Android flavours.

It doesn't seem to be what you are saying.

Android 13. Looking in the other replies, it seems pretty wide spread.

Yep, I have it on my Poco F5 with MIUI and a friend that has a Galaxy S23 with stock OS also has the same issue.

Sure, they just need to fix their annoying bugs on Android.

Everytime I leave a tab open and switch to another app, it's a 50/50 whether I return to a black screen and am forced to restart it or it just works fine.

I'm using right now a Poco F5 with a 7+ gen 2 and, besides gpu intensive stuff (playing Genshin Impact on lowest settings doesn't always give 60fps), I can't tell the difference from more powerful phones.

I believe the reason they do this is because some resellers were unlocking the bootloader and installing a ROM with malware and selling that off to unsuspecting customers. This delay (and needing to be registered with a phone number) makes that process both impractical and easy to detect.

This is true, but also really stupid. The resellers that insert malicious roms into their phones always manage to get a privileged account from someone at Xiaomi that allows for instant bootloader unlock, so only legit customers get screwed by this.

It's a bit shitty, but it still works. You need to link your Xiaomi account with Mi Unlocker in the dev settings and then wait from 3 days to 1 month.

But since I do that when I first get the phone, by the time I want to install a custom rom, it's ready.

I was under the impression that was only for the Xiaomi.EU rom.

I'm not really into photographing, so I'm not into that a lot.

For regular photos without gcam, you can check the ones in the article.

I bought this phone and have no regrets.

The only thing lacking a bit for me is the software, but I'm just waiting for an official custom recovery and I'll install a pixel-like rom.

Never said they didn't, but Firefox does as well and the duality of criteria is astonishing.
