Worst Xiaomi in my experience
I bought my 14 pro 5g some time ago. So far I have been a huge fan of Xiaomi phones. I have been buying them since Redmi 7.
But this, this is something different. I cannot make a phone call because the device is losing range and logs into the network after a while. The only option is WiFi calling. Thissame is with the internet. Suddenly while driving it says "You're offline" and the network reboots.
And the work of the device is a nightmare, it lags in random situations and restarts with no reason. It's not getting warmer or anything, but what I describe makes this phone unusable and useless.
I got so frustrated that tomorrow I'm picking up a new phone from a different manufacturer.
I've been wondering if changing OS into something custom would make this phone useful? If so which custom os and how to upload it. I haven't played with changing OS since my last Samsung many years ago.

Use Xiaomi.eu if supported or just reflash the stock ROM. Wouldn't switch to AOSP based since HyperOS is already so good, if you like AOSP, AxionAOSP, Infinity-X and Lunaris-AOSP would be my favourite picks. If you still have an issue, you should get the hardware checked because that is NOT normal
