    +1 to this. Next time I’ll be buying a new phone, I’ll have a look at what phones are supported by LOS

    Right now I’m on a Xiaomi CC9 with LOS. It felt a whole new phone after I got rid of MIUI (which didn’t receive any updates in about one year and half)

      The problem is getting a brand new model compatible with LOS.

      Last year I specifically got a Redmi Note 9 Pro (brand new unit), which at the time was a 2 year old model, because it was one of the few models that matched the specifications I was looking for AND it was officially LOS supported.

      I mean, I’m pretty happy with it, this thing is a beast and I’m not one of those guys who need the last model of everything, but I paid the around same of what the new Redmi Note 11s costed at the time. No regrets; anything to have a Xiaomi without that MIUI cancer.
