Recieved my Note 10 Pro from MIA yesterday. Very nice spec, including Miband5 for R5500.
Overall happy!

Have you done the update to 12.5.4 if so any problems you can notice? Read people are having compatibility issues with some Apps. Trying to avoid the update for now.

Received the Redmi note 10 pro. (Ordered Sat and received yesterday)
Overall - Not a bad phone at all - Urgent replacement for my oldphone
Fyi: This is a 4g edition from MIA ( Dont expect 5g) - Which Im on Wifi and don't have 5g coverage anyway.
You can get it snappier if you play with some tweaks. Happy to share those that interested

AFAIK .. No issues with 12.5.4 so far.. (in fact the issues (bugs) are more with earlier MUIU 12.5.1-3 releases... they appears fixed from 12.5.4 (so timing is perfect ) .. But I don't know which apps people having issues.. so I cannot comment... but happy to test them out if you tell me which one they are..
Hope the MUIU 13 (android 12) comes out very soon..

Do anyone know where to find glass screen protector and better covers for note 10 pro? Nothing listed on Mia Africa or Takealot.

I updated the moment I received the phone, no issues so far

My only "issue" was due to lack of research, this phone does not have a notification LED. However there are alternatives for something similar (3rd party apps)

My global version (from Amazon) was upgraded etc but I see I am still on 12.5.1

Any tricks to get to 12.5.4?

I bought screen protectors (they even provided protector for the camera array) with my Amazon purchase and it went on first. What I forgot to buy is the case.

Definitely need a better case , hopefully with built in magnet to use on windscreen holder.

Quickest way is do a local update. Download the firmware from the Xiaomi server and then update on the phone.

I've seen a few on bidorbuy and MiFix/MiPhone(but don't really want to order from them as they've had a lot of negative reviews here and on HelloPeter).

If you find anything please do let us know

If you do it this way , does the phone get wiped. Wondering what recovery means. Maybe I must just be patient

Im going to try this notification LED option.

No, it’s basically the same as an OTA update, you are just pointing the update app at the firmware which is on the phone rather than being downloaded. It’s a simple process.

The instructions, as per XDA

How to Install Android Updates on Xiaomi, Mi, Redmi, and POCO smartphones with MIUI

Follow these instructions install Android updates / Stock MIUI Recovery and Fastboot ROMs on Xiaomi, Mi, Redmi and POCO smartphones.

www.xda-developers.com

Recovery ROM Installation​

Recovery ROMs come with a .zip file extension and can be installed through the Local Update method from within MIUI. You can also use a custom recovery for installing these ROMs, though do note that device-specific instructions may differ in that case.

1. Transfer the download .zip file to your phone, and ensure you place the file in the “downloaded_rom” folder in the internal storage of your device. If no such folder exists, create one in your internal storage base directory.
2. On your phone, navigate to Settings > About Phone > System Update, and then press the three-dot icon in the top-right corner, and select “Choose Update Package”. If the “Choose Update Package” is not visible, you need to tap on the MIUI version logo 7-10 times.
3. If the “Choose Update Package” option is missing, tap on the MIUI logo 10 times to activate the option.
4. Choose the downloaded .zip file.
5. Wait for the update to install.

Edit to add

As an FYI I didn’t make a “downloaded rom” folder, I just downloaded and placed it in the root folder. Never had a problem.

Doesn't the Redmi 10 line have Amoled screens?

Are you able to use an "Always on" feature like Samsung, to display notifications?

Some do and some don’t.
