Thinking of switching

Hello.
Let’s get started with this. I am an iPhone user of almost 4 years. I’ve been wanting one since I was young and I got it a couple of years ago. Looking back now, I don’t get why I was so fussed about it..🫠

**(I have the iPhone 15 pro max)**

I am completely tired of how it lacks customisation, how I am not free to just reply on messenger while using an app since IOS does not have the bubble overlay, not free to download apps I want if not from the App Store.
Overheating, battery draining over NOTHING (lol that is pathetic in 2026).

I went to the store the other day to take a look at some laptops and while I was browsing the store, I came across the Xiaomi 17 Ultra.

What a freaking beauty. Amazing design, good materials, vivid colors, smoothly operating. Overall really good stats for the price.

The camera bump is just HUGE on its own, but with a case, it’s fine.

The thing now is that I’m not quite sure if I am going to like the operating system and how the apps work…

*I mainly use my phone for my job since I need to answer phone calls all day long and then for music, photos, instagram scrolling and maybe a game or too.*

Is the battery life good? Does it need constant charging? Is it laggy or lack anything significant?

Has anyone made this change? Is it worth it?
