Notebookcheck reviews the Xiaomi 17 Pro Max. This large-screen smartphone packs tremendous power and comes with an additional second screen on the rear. This allows for easy selfies to be captured using the rear camera, as well as quick access to notifications and apps. Is that enough to earn it a top spot among the leading smartphones?

    Layman here but this sounds more like Google caretaking Google apps on a Google device than actual background app keeping opened.

      Same with other non-google apps. On Hyperos it used to close apps when switching between browser, Drive PDF viewer, bank & government e-id app. Monthly invoice payment was a horrible process

        This just sounds like battery optimisation and it could’ve been avoided?

          I’ve turned everything off. Still happened. I think my device had 6 or 8 giga of RAM, with at least half being free

          You can’t. It was especially strange when a phone with 50% less ram held apps better than a xiaomi phone with more RAM.

          You can tweak and disable all optimization. But, the software will still kill your apps no matter what.
