Downgrade! November 3, 2023 at 09:50 AM
I foolishly upgraded my newly purchased Redmi 12c to MIUI 14, only to find that I wouldn't say I liked some of its features. I wanted to "downgrade" to MIUI 13, but it seems that this is not possible. To make matters worse, Xiaomi has refused to assist with this issue. As a result, I feel that my Redmi 12c is destined for the trash bin, and I'm considering a switch to a Samsung Galaxy, or something similar, that would better suit my needs. Xiaomi's attitude seems to be, "Tough luck, you're on your own. We've got your money now."

I agree. The update didn't bring anything good.
