Now tell me, is your misunderstanding about fast cleared or not?

I keep my devices for several years! 2 Redmi devices nearing 7 years still deliver 7-9 hours SoT.

@guest_999  had reported issues with his 6GB Xiaomi device in the past wherein the first app would reload while returning to it after making a UPI payment in a 2nd app IIRC. Stock Android will work just about fine (for now) in the above scenario even with only 4GB RAM. MIUI is likely to be problematic. However no such issue was exhibited in my father's 6GB Redmi Note 10 Pro albeit running A11 based MIUI. A12 was associated with a noticeable increase in RAM usage by the OS & System even in AOSP. 

TL;DR: Minimum 6GB RAM is highly recommended in case of devices running MIUI to ensure a smooth multitasking experience. 

Edit: @saucap Poco has announced 2 Android OS updates but Redmi hasn't made any such commitment. I think the latter would also match it but it's something to keep in mind. Plus newer Android OS versions might demand a bit more RAM again making the 6GB variant a better buy in terms of future readiness.

OK available.

But what about charging speed?

I think 33 watt minimum is must now.

It's having outdated 18 watt charging speed which was common in 2017 devices

I don't care about fast charging. I use a 5W charger in my Poco F4 which comes bundled with a 67W charger.

Good for prematurely degrading the battery. Fast charging should be limited to situations where it's really necessary. Otherwise 10W charging is ideal for medium topups. BTW due to higher temps. there's not a whole lot of difference while using a 33W charger vs the 67W at least in F4. I can provide active cooling but still not a big difference.

I can assure i will use this device 2 to 3 years more until it's out of running cycle.
It's better to sell on olx and get new one always..
We get bored with it.
Still we used lot of years.

Is the SOT for original battery ? And bypass charging all these years ?

Yes to both. I had planned to replace the battery in one of the two about 2 years back but without any announcement whatsoever Xiaomi had EOL'ed both some months ago.

P.S. I had examined the output of the uevent file recently and turns out it wasn't true bypass charging at least in case of one of the two. Not that it matters...

Roughly 3-4 years after release barring a few  that didn't sell well in which case Xiaomi pulls the plug sooner. Previously it used to be as long as 5 years. In the last 2 years the pattern  seems to be that the specific devices whose spares are significantly discounted during the Xiaomi Summer Service Camp  are EOL'ed not long after. Otherwise one comes to know only after calling the customer care. Not infrequently batteries in particular might be available in a few service centers upto 6 months after the device hits EOL status. 

Another useful indicator is the software support period which can be checked at the Xiaomi Security Center website. Aftersales service stops not much longer following the end of software support.

Samsung galaxy F23 takes around 90 min to close to full charge while using a redmi 18w charger which I think is still fast enough.
