The Official Xiaomi Thread

Has anyone else noticed that in the standard xiaomi music app one can open and play YouTube music videos and songs right within the music app.

Wow, have never used the default music app, pretty cool, you can minimize it without pausing!!
Also get a floating non intrusive bubble.

How do you open YouTube videos in the app?

It's meant for music that is in video format but in YouTube. That's why and how you can have YouTube playing in the background without it closing because the logic is it's playing audio and not video. And also why auto rotate for the YouTube videos does not work either.

As to how. Just open the Mi Music app and click on watch at the bottom right and it'll open a YouTube section right within the music player for you to search and play anything from YouTube.
 
Now the Chinese overloads know what music I like
Nice find - Instant YT music video to audio converter.

How do you create a playlist tho?

I would imagine one can create a playlist on the youtube app and just login to your account and play your playlists. Or create a playlist and search it by name on the watch tab and play it without logging in since it's a public playlist. Several ways to skin that cat.

Has anyone grabbed one of these? A lot of reviews seem to be saying there's quite a bit of screen bleed and shadowing on the edges. Also that the backlight shows around the punch hole.

Apparently also WiFi Issues.. Some reviews would be appreciated.

I have found that if "Select best network automatically" is on, then WiFi disables when the screen is off. This has been happening since the Android 9 update on my Max 3 and on my daughter's newish Note 8.

Switch off Select best networks, then the issue is gone.

Hmmm didn't notice the slight screen bleed till it was mentioned now. Don't really notice it unless you're on a solid white page though(there's like a slight blueish tint). Doesn't bother me.
No noticeable WiFi issues, I am using 5g though.

I don't like the ads(not many) but even one pisses me off. Other than that it's a pretty quick phone with a macro camera (which I really enjoy) and it was cheap for the specs/performance so I won't complain too much

Can't really see the very slight bleeding in the pic

Turn off the ads in the settings
 
Is it a Xiaomi thing or an android thing that notifications in the notification shade are not arranged or ordered by time received? Or perhaps its just my phone. I get notifications from various apps throughout the day but at times its not easy to find out what that last notification was from because the notification shade is a mess.

I'm also getting duplicate notifications on the lockscreen. i.e two whatsapp msg notification on lockscreen but both indicating & notifying me of the same message. :confused:


Lastly the messages/notifications also come late. Especially emails. I thought it was due to using spark and so i resorted to using gmail and still. The laptop gets the email instantly but only like 5 to 10mins later does the same notification appear on phone. Sometimes almost an hour later.
