    Funny how all these "unbiased" review channels talk about this phone as if it's perfect specs for it's price, but has the ads as a major drawback. However none of them mentions you actually can get rid of them, and be left with a perfect phone for only 200 eurobucks.

      You complain having ads with this price range? I would prefer ads just to lessen the price that you can disable later. Well, it really seems that commonsense is not so common these days.

    • @GavinsGadgets
      @GavinsGadgets  3 ปีที่แล้ว

      Well how about Poco reveal the phone has ads when they sell it to keep the price lower? And if you pay a bit more you get the phone without ads? That's what Amazon does . Also Amazon only had ads on the lockscreen. This is everywhere possible. It's called perspective.

    Also additional things you could do is turn of the notifications from mi apps from settings and also select your region as Germany or Spain the ads wont come.
    Another option you can do is use a tool called "ADB Debloat for MIUI" but be careful what apps you de bloat, do not debloat the security and the cleaner app as doing that will force the phone into bootloops. You can select other apps (but i suggest see the list of apps safe to remove once). This also frees like 1.5GB of storage in your phone. But this has one downside is that everytime updates come the system apps will be installed again. But i feel thats a thing worth taking a sweat for. Takes only 4-5 minutes.

    • @GavinsGadgets
      @GavinsGadgets  4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      These are good suggestions. I didn't include them, as I wanted to keep it simple the guide simple enough, so everyone can do them. BTW I am in the UK, and the Poco X3 still got ads. I also thought, some of the Mi apps might be useful for others, so its a balancing act of including stuff that everyone can do without causing harm etc.. Appreciate the feedback !!!!

    • @hmm2928
      @hmm2928 4 ปีที่แล้ว +1

      @@GavinsGadgets I think so you got ads in UK, even while being in uk is because of brexit (i might be wrong). Because i generally use to set my location as UK to avoid ads. Hence suggested Germany and Spain.

    • @GavinsGadgets
      @GavinsGadgets  4 ปีที่แล้ว

      Nothing to do with Brexit. Just a bit sneaky especially with ads when installing an app from the Play Store. It's probably how the price is kept low. I do wonder if Poco will get fined for this at some point, as they haven't declared on any marketing material that the phone comes with ads.

    Hi Gavin, rather late to the party but I've just stumbled across your fantastic video. Firstly thank you so much for this, as I would never in a million years been able to remove all the ad options on my Poco X3 PRO, without it. Just 2 quick queries though, my Poco is now on MIUI version 12.5.2 and as your video is over a year old now (but still relevant) I'm wondering if the following ad options have changed since the making of your video. Step 7 - Mi Video now (4.54 mins into your video) the "Personalised Recommendations" box is no longer there so unable to turn off. Similarly, Step 9 - "Folders" (5.44 mins into your video) I'm unable to see Is the "Promoted Apps) option so again unable to turn off. Are both of these issues as a result of the latest MUIU version 12.5.2 removing these options?

    • @GavinsGadgets
      @GavinsGadgets  2 ปีที่แล้ว +1

    The only thing, I haven't done was turn off msa,I think that is going to make a good difference now. Was having fantom add called: Free Games. Could not access the app at all when you long press on the notification. And if you press the add it would take you to a free games website. I think this was implemented by Xiaomi, and made to the user not be able to turn it off. turning msa off might have done the trick.👍

    A comprehensive and useful guide BUT could have been improved by attending to the following:
    * Move in closer, especially at the top part of the screenshots
    * Use a better camera to improve icon sharpness
    * Remove the light reflection out of range of the screenshots
    * The screen was a tad too dull to see clearly
    * Slow down the instruction steps a tad for beginners
    It’s stated in another review that removing ads affects the navigation generally. What are the downsides - if any - to fiddling around with the pre installed data?

      Hi Kevin, appreciate the feedback. My focus is always on the quality of the content versus anything else but understand your points totally. I simply ran out of time to re-record without the light reflections. I’m not aware of any problems. I’ve carried out these steps on all my devices. And if you read the comments so have 1,000s of others now. Removing ads should help protect your privacy more, use less data and speed up things. This is a non intrusive method. Other more complex exist where you root the phone. I don’t agree with this way personally.

    I never saw ads on my Mi 10T, maybe it is because mine is international rom, and country setting is outside mainland PRC.

      I’ve not personally used the M3 yet, others have as you will have read in the comments, these phones all follow the same system. I used this method on many previous phones.

      Hi Lee. Not my area of expertise. I think you need to step back though & stop being so worried. It’s runs Google. Google uses your data etc etc.
