**Description of the issue:
After buying the aforementioned phone Realme 14 Pro Plus, I’ve encountered issues with Brave that were not present on my old phone Xiaomi Redmi 10C.
The issues are three, the first is more insignificant and cosmetic, the other two are more important.
The first issue, which is cosmetic, is that when an Incognito tab is created, the notification icon in the status bar that looks like sunglasses, appears stretched vertically. But when the status bar notifications are expanded, the icon appears normal. On the first screenshot, I have shown how other icons appear normal in the status bar, except for Brave’s icon. I have provided two screenshots describing this here:
The second issue is when some tabs are left in the background for a while, say 5 minutes, using the Brave address bar to swipe left and right to those tabs becomes unavailable - nothing happens. I have to tap the tab list button so I can display all tabs and then select the tab and it takes a few seconds to recover, because it freezes at first and displays a blank page. I want to note that other browsers, even other Chromium browsers aren’t behaving like this.
The third issue has to do with the app being suspended from memory when left in the background and other apps are being used. This was issue on my old phone Xiaomi REdmi 10C, but that phone only had 4GB RAM and clearly that’s not enough and it’s understandable. The Realme 14 Pro Plus has 12GB RAM and can be further expanded with extra 14GB RAM, this is how it was by default - expanded to the maximum when I first booted the device. I understand that some people claim that using Expanded Memory causes the device to behave slower, but I haven’t noticed it being slow. I tried excluding Brave from the Battery optimization tasks so it doesn’t get auto suspended, but that didn’t help. I always assumed that when using a device with powerful hardware, CPU, RAM, UFS memory, will be enough to not experience this issue any longer, but it wasn’t the case.
I don’t know if this is an issue on Android in general, or the custom ROM from Realme (and before that from Xiaomi on my old phone) have something to do with this, but I believe I’ve read other people claiming not having this issue on flagship Android phones and also on iPhone.
