Jio just launched an Android phone for $87 in collaboration with Google. The phone has decent hardware, runs a customized verison of Android Go, and comes with Jio's digital content suite. While it is the best showing from Google yet in this category, it doesn't do enough to attract existing feature phone users.
Although it took a while, I can say that it was worth waiting for MIUI 12.5.6 Enhanced Edition, the Global Stable firmware update for the Xiaomi Mi 10T Pro (also available for the non-Pro variant, of course) that often makes my phone feel like never before. Sadly, there are still some bugs here and there.
