What does it mean to change the region of your Xiaomi, why do it and what dangers it entails
Lately you often ask us what dangers are involved in changing the region of your Xiaomi and what advantages you will get by doing so. Two quite interesting questions that we will now solve in a simple way to understand.
Probably on more than one occasion you have been recommended to change the region of your Xiaomi, either to obtain an extra option or as part of a tutorial . This is because depending on the region in which you configure your Xiaomi, the applications or software limitations will be affected in one way or another.
In addition, in order to comply with the regional regulations of each area, whether in Europe or any other country in particular, the regions will adapt our smartphone to these . Without going any further, Europe limits the maximum volume of smartphones, which is why it is recommended to use a region other than that of a European country.
How to change the region of your Xiaomi and what dangers it entails
Changing the region of any Xiaomi, redmi or POCO device is extremely simple. For this, we will only have to carry out the following steps:
- Go to Settings> Additional Settings> Region
- Next we will select the region that we want to use. Example: Andorra, India, Hong Kong, etc.
After that, the default settings and applications of our Xiaomi will be adapted to those of the region that we have established. For example, if we set « India » we will see how applications of the type My Pay appear on our desktop since it is a service that is available in India but not in Europe .
In this way we can say that changing our Xiaomi region does not imply any danger , since the only thing we will do is that its settings and applications adapt to those of the established country. Therefore, if we change region we will not expose ourselves to any type of danger that could damage our smartphone.
Of course, the only negative point is the increase in bloatware , depending on the region we choose. These are nothing more than Xiaomi or third-party applications under commercial agreements, which will be installed automatically, thus occupying space in our Xiaomi.
Some examples of why change the region of your Xiaomi
There are probably two fundamental reasons to change your Xiaomi region. One of them is based on European limitations and regulations and another is directly related to the use of Themes on your smartphone.
As many of you will know, Europe forces manufacturers to apply certain limitations. An example of this is the maximum volume in headphones , something that we can "skip" by changing the region of our Xiaomi for Andorra or any other outside of Europe.
In addition, if we choose the India region we will see how the Themes application evolves considerably. Unlike what we would get with a European region, it will have countless themes , as well as the possibility of customizing more aspects such as the MIUI font type .
