      I tried the Mi 8 Lite, honestly I’m not impressed. It’s super cheap, which is really cool, but the OS it comes with is riddled with bloatware… Not sure it’s worth it

        That’s a 6 year old phone, and they’ve cleaned that up a lot since, at least for western markets.
        The new HyperOS although it functionally looks the same, feels way better.
        Apart from the glass back, the 13T is an amazing phone IMO.

        I returned my last Samsung because it was riddled with bloatwear that could not be disabled or uninstalled

        Facebook was one such app, if I disabled it, it would re-enable itself on reboots

        And it wasn’t even a cheap phone

        As opposed to Samsung and Apple? Right…
