MIUI 10 on Mi Mix 2S





I just updated my Mi Mix 2S to the new MIUI 10.

There is not a lot of difference at the first. Dragging the screen up gets you the Google search, and dragging it down gives to the setting menu. Pretty much the same as MIUI 9.5.

At the start, my keyboard disappeared from my Facebook Messager and Facebook, and after restarting the phone, everything was fine again.

One thing I need to get used to is that now to close apps, you have to swipe left / right instead of up...



Holding on the app at the app switch screen allows you to lock the app, create a split screen or change settings on the app.



The timer now also has sound options for you to listen to natural sounds for the duration, sort of like a napping aid to help you relax.



The toggle app screen is also different.

I have yet seen significant improvements on the camera, calendar and other claims that MIUI 10 has over MIUI 9.5.

My phone was already running pretty fast with no lag, so there is not much difference.

Overall, I do like the new changes, and yes, there is a little need to get used to the new design. Overall, the UI and UX seem better, and nothing much is compromised except for the initial bugs I faced with Facebook, but all seemed to clear up once I restarted my phone.

I do like it and I would recommend that you update to the latest MIUI when you have the chance.
