MIUI vs Stock Android: Which is better?

Differences between stock Android and MIUI

• Memory usage:

As we all know that Android devices have limited memory(system memory).

depending upon the size of the OS(custom Skin) in this case which is MIUI the Storage consumption will be more and thus you will notice UI lags and shutters here and there.

• Missing App Drawer

one thing that everyone hates about MIUI is the missing App drawer, whereas in Stock Android you get a nice clean App drawer with all the Installed Apps stacked or arranged in order.

MIUI claims to come with Under the hood Optimisations such as battery and performance which results in Good battery life and Good performance which however is not true. In fact Stock Android gives better battery backup due to the fact that it has less bloatware (useless pre-installed apps) and contains Core Optimisations which come directly from Android that is Google Inc.
