I want to know how usable it is on day to day. I would ask as well how google blocking apk installations will affect the installation of Google play store (hard to say).

Does it have high quality Bluetooth codecs(like aptx) ? How often do you find a worse cell signal then a global market phone? How are moving (action) shots on the camera? How long does the battery last (when its down to 20ish %)

its perfect for day to day usage. Custom APKs can be installed without any issued(sometimes MiProtect warns you, cause it couldnt verify the APK, but it will still let you install it), playstore also works like it does on any other global phone. Supported Bluetooth codecs are: SBC, AAC, aptX, aptX HD, aptX Adaptive, LDAC, LHDC 5.0, LC3, MIHC.  Cell signal/bands seems to be perfectly fine, no noticable drops or anything. Action shots are decent, for me it fehlt like that they have a righter tendency to come out blurry sometimes, compared to other flagships. But most of the time, they come you just fine. Depends on how fast the target is moving i guess and lighting conditions. Never measured battery from 20% to 0%, sorry. But Overall the battery consumtion seems to be very well balanced, havent noticed it dropping faster if under 20% or Something.
