I have repeatedly expressed my opinion on the Xiaomi system interface, that is the MIUI, the best and most competing although I must admit that in the last few months the intrusive presence of advertisements is turning the boxes to me too. Unfortunately Xiaomi will not eliminate the ADS from its MIUI but promises improvements in this regard: algortimi will be implemented to show only ads relevant to the interests of users.
The number of advertisements will be reduced by at least 30% but not completely eliminated because for Xiaomi the advertising within its MIUI has contributed substantially to the turnover, which combined with internet services, is equal to 9,7%. The MIUI development team was not clear if the new algorithms will be implemented only on MIUI 11 or if we will have some nice surprises in the next updates.
Another novelty concerning the MIUI ROM is the introduction of the dark system level. In reality this modality has already been present for some months on the Xiaomi devices that can benefit from it, but not all the proprietary applications were compatible. And so here is remedied, at least in part, with the modification of the app Mi File Manager, which is redesigned to make it easier and clearer in use.
The nice thing is that the Mi File Manager app can be downloaded for free and it can also be installed on other non-Xiaomi Android devices, which can therefore enable the dark mode by acting on the setting of the app itself, while for devices with MIUI on board, just choose enabling dark mode directly from the phone settings.
Here are the latest news of the MIUI 10 waiting for the 11 version
We conclude with two news regarding the update on Redmi 7 and Mi 8. In particular on the latter, the 9.5.22 beta adds the DC Dimming True Hardware, allowing to eliminate the flickering of the display at low brightness levels in OLED screens. So it is plausible that in the future, even the remaining devices of the Xiaomi range will benefit from the update, which currently occupies 324 MB. The feature it can be activated through the display settings.
For Redmi 7 the innovations are much more substantial starting from the android security patches that are brought to May 2019 and remarkable new functions and improvements of the MIUI that for this entry level arrives to the 10.3.2.0 version.
