Stock Android is always better than MUIUI, touchwiz and so on

But some stock app is boring. Like Messenger, I need to insert receiver before input text. HTC Messenger allow me to type text, save draft without receiver.
Also, I don't like stock icon in Nokia 5 )
I havent texted in years and you can always download nova plus some icon pack
My point is that there a few phones without skins.

Did u root your Nokia 5…?
No
Beautiful stock android. I use nova launcher that makes the homescreen a little more snappier and prettier.
Unmodified Android is one of the biggest reasons why I bought this phone, it's not a great performing phone, but the software is very clean.
Pure Android, and using it with Xperia Home and Nova prime with custom icon pack for the home screen. Cause the stock launcher isn't very customisable and the stock launcher's dock is taking too much space in the display
Sime annoyances in the UI like having to scroll all the way to the to to clear all apps. Some more themeing would be nice too. otherwise stock ftw

Are you kidding me? This is a nexus.
It's a Nexus. The "skin"(such an inaccurate term), or really the lack of one, is the main selling point of the phone.
This thread is funny... to call stock Android a "skin" smh.... I do not think I would trust a reviewer who calls stock android a skin..

Do you guys read the post?
And people wonder why XDA has gone down the pan and devs leave by the bucket load.
It's because of threads like this that plague the site.
Hehe, thats true. But it's not only xda , it's everywhere

I love Pure Android 7.0 with Google Pixel Launcher. Sorry original Android 6.0 launcher is not my taste.
I give 5 star with custom loaded Pixel Launcher.

Better then TW but still need some improvements.. some of the setting seems hard to find.
The standard stuff is easy to figure out and use ... the more involved stuff is laid out quite well.
They say that LG has terrible UI, but coming from CM, I don't dislike it at all.
Lack of customization especially for the lock screen. A shame really.

Settings is organized well and the homescreen settings is organized well.
Among the best of the stock android like appearance, I do not like stock android lenovo somewhat fixed it.
I use Evie launcher mostly because its better than stock and better than the lenovo ui.
There are some issues though some widgets can't be replaced if you remove them literally they don't exist in the widgets menu like the stock clock on the desktop.

TBH miui is getting boring, and there are many time when I am unable to find some settings I have to relay more on search option
I have purchased this for a family member of mine. Presently I am using it for a day or two for testing to see if everything is working fine within the return window.
MiUi is out right intolerable for me who loves custom ROM and using Z2 Plus (SD820/4GB).
But I kind of appreciate Xiaomi for their update commitment for their devices running MiUi.
UI is good enough for some one who is a completely non technical person.
Battery backup is excellent, so are their overall tuning. Yes there are some issues but their update cycle is dependable to get continued update for fixing any such.
But there are complaints, even from those users.
UX look and feel issue (China Factor)
How on earth MiUi Dev's think everyone likes Chinese bubbly design language?
Look at Oppo, they are Chinese to start with but Oxygen OS is getting so much love from rest of the world. Look at Samsung with their UI. So much different from stock android but loved around the world.
Can't they have a different UI which rest of the world will like?
Complicated Navigation
MiUi is getting complicated with its settings layout. Things are embedded so deep, it's problematic for non technical users for find their way around.
Getting Old and Boring
Once again another complain I am hearing from non technical user of MiUi. New device doesn't give new feeling anymore since the UI is kept same for half a decade now.
Similar issue what non technical users are reporting.
Like for example, my family member who would be using this device refused to upgrade from Samsung On8 (J7) to this year's On8 (J8) since everything looked same. Even though underneath, it's a completely different device.
Ads and privacy issues
Yeah they recover their cost from ads but it's utterly objectionable when they are showing adult ads without any specific option to toggle or filter such ads.
Lastly why do they need so much permission for ads? Our privacy too matters.. You really don't need so much personal information for showing ads.
No notch Support for MiUi
MiUi isn't yet notch compatible. Simply it's a cut in display. Nothing else. Notifications bar needs to optimised for this Notch. But judging from their MiUi agresive update cycle, hopefully we can have a better notch management.
Thanks.
3 starts. There's no 4K 30 FPS or Full HD 60 FPS recording option, and I know the sensor is capable of it.

stock android is good for performance. but for appearance and skin is boring
If you don't like the stock android experience just use a launcher to change the look.
I don't like how the icon selection forces us to use 4 shapes that isn't compatible with all apps. Like if Circle is selected, some apps will have their icons encircled if it's not round by a bit while if we choose Square, the naturally round icons will look weird.
Then there's the wallpaper selection and settings. Not really great when you want to use a wide or square type of image for the two-three home scroll-able pages and not being able to select which one should be the home button. 3rd party apps have a hard time to apply the wallpaper due to the strictly stock settings.
Then there's the UI font size which affects the notifications tab and the hiding of the notch display.
I'd love MIUI on Asus Zenfone Max Pro M2. Ofcourse a stable port based on stable release of original Miui.

Why would custom roms have ads?
Even custom roms on official miui roms don't have ads.

Well not everybody likes substratum , theme engine of miui is better than substratum
Zen ui may had been laggy or buggy but trying it out would be great and through constant updates that problem too can be resolved
More over stock android kind of skip out on customisation and features
Stock is lob I'll gibb it 10 out 10
No question in that....

The stock Android is awesome but after using the device for the second day suddenly all my background was hidden and I have to go to safe mode and close all those background apps and Asus said it's due to a bug apart from that Google apps work very well with stock Android....#
