Xiaomi is pretty obscure in the USA if that’s what they’re referring to, as far as I know no carriers or stores really sell them, leaving your only option to be ordering unlocked on Amazon
The CEO’s lines were not mentioning that option, bht good to know, thanks, mate 🙂
They are [including it](https://www.xda-developers.com/xiaomi-mi-11-flagship-5g-launch-china-qualcomm-snapdragon-888/) if you want it. You can opt out of it though.
Many won’t order, nor purchase, this phone, as long as Xiaomi isn’t including the correct charger with the phone 🙂 hell no, Xiaomi…
A little plot twist: they sell both version, removed charger and charger included, AT THE SAME PRICE !!!, now that’s what I called protecting the environment
Oh that one, not really a big fans of it, but yes it similar to apple
No charger include ,phone without charger adapter and just usb cable
Asian territories just got this month
The control centre
> At least they are pushing the value of what can be done for a cheap buck….
Thats for people who dont have the budget for a flagship. How many people dont have the budget for a flagship in 1st world countries and are tech savvy enough to buy a Xiaomi?
If you hang around in forums and reddit all day you may think they are many but not in real world.
And there are many videos about how to turn it off in setting menu. (I don’t have ad in my Xiaomi but to be safe I turn those setting off)
Well there’s no ad in my Xiaomi, and about data breach apple and Google and Facebook do the same thing, and up to this day there’s no attempt to force entry to any of my account and no financial loss in any of my bank account or other financial account, so I don’t see any effects in that
Can you listed what apple feature (that not exist in android) implemented in today MIUI (12) ?
News reports this week that the Mi11 will ship without a charger…just like Apple.
I have seen videos of phones purchased in India where people show there are ads while browsing settings or on the menu where you adjust brightness and also when you open a folder there would be “recommended apps”.
I am genuinely confused about these ads. I have bought quite a lot of xiaomi phones of many different models over many years, locally in Guangzhou and HK when I traveled there and have ordered some delivered to the UK and not once have I ever send these supposed ads. Where do they appear? Do you have to be using a built-in launcher to see them (I don’t)?
retail
Yeah, brain fart moment.
Which dedicated charger companies have stocks?
At least xioami phones are not counterfeit-able, but chargers on the other hand….
If I buy a xioami phone without a charger, I’m sure as hell not buying a charger from them and instead going Anker, Ugreen or Baseus
It’s ok, you dont always have to own the latest one.
AFAIK, nope. Just the generic Ok google. At least for searches and setting alarms, it works great
dont forget resellers
Yep. and if people are still tin-foil hatted, they can just root and clean or install a custom rom.
I just deactivated some apps, the file explorer, gallery and miShare are great IMO.
I’m legit curious if it was a mistake or a reference to something.
Xiaomi started copying Apple’s iOS for android (MIUI), it wouldnt be surprising
If im not wrong you could preorder pixels and you wasnt charged until you confirmed the order later on.
Now perordering paying now, on an unreleased phone which probably will have some revisions down the line, I’d never do that lol
The whole ads thing is overblown. There are only a few and some can even be turned off.
You can always install another launcher too.
I might be wrong though
Maybe
I think he meant apps from phone
How do you uninstall phones from apps?
Also I just got the news today that they’ll exclude the charger? Just like apple and Samsung?
That sounds awesome.
I’m really really interested in the AI-powered assistants like Bixby and I have no clue if there’s a Xiaomi version of that.
It runs a very basic skin on top of stock android. You get the Google assistant as per normal! Not something I use. But simple swipe up from the bottom and it’s there!
Oh I forgot to mention.. 5000mah battery.. I get over 10 hours of on screen time.. and I’m a heavy media consumer at 90% brightness!
Is there a “xiaomi assistant” like the google assistant or Bixby built into the phone?
I use Bixby a LOT and love it!! It’s my only hang up with leaving Samsung
Well the switch wasn’t really a choice at first. My z folds inner screen developed a fault. I had to ship it off. I couldn’t be without a phone. So went to the nearest phone shop. Asked for the cheapest least crap phone for under £200. I was shown a Samsung with a terrible 720p screen or a redmi note 9. Bought the redmi. Man for £150 that was one hell of a phone. Ticked 90% of the boxes in a phone I need! Loved it so much 2 days later I ordered the 10t pro. Haven’t looked back. I got my z fold back and I put it straight in its original box.
6.7″ 144hz display, 8gb ram and a Snapdragon 865 in a phone that cost me £350.. I have no idea why I spent £1000+ each year on Samsung flagships..
I’ve been meaning to try xiaomi phones.
Do you miss your Galaxy fold at all? Was the switch painful?
I pre ordered the z fold 2! I own the z fold 2. Yet I’m using a mi 10t pro lol. Decided I didn’t like the z fold.
I pre ordered my Samsung Galaxy note 8 a while ago and I did it because I was so excited about that phone.
It really was the last great note released by Samsung
Considering what’s happening with graphics cards (and previously with new console generations), more and more tech seems to require it to get it at a reasonable time or price.
True, but they are not allowed to push ads on phones in the EU so they made custom roms for phones sold here. Not sure about data collection, I uninstalled most xiaomi phones from my app anyway.
I will just wait for Mi 12 next month 😂
I’ll wait for the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra Pro Max T. Or whatever of the 20 variations is the best
Fair point, but the tech yt community is a minority compared to that figure lol. Must be hardcode fanboys O_o
I have a Mi 10 Ultra with a ridiculous 120W charger. You’re just not likely to already have one of those, so for me it’s a negative because it either means the new phone doesn’t have the same fast charging, or people won’t be able to take advantage of the charging without spending more money.
Yes, well more like 2 months ago
Tech needs?
Is that bad?
Didn’t the mi 10t only come out last month lol
A lot of people do. As soon as apple or Samsung have a press release on a new phone the pre orders go live.
It is mandatory to pre-order in China if you want the phone on the first month or two. Demand is always overwhelming after launch that they never cope up during the first few weeks.
Yep, lmao.
Just curious, what advantage/gimmick do all the people who pre-order get?
It’s kinda stupid and click bait. They don’t even know the price
And no charger after those day diss out of apple.
Cool.
Sounds like a great opportunity for stock investors
Meanwhile this broke ass 17 year old can’t do f*ck all about it
They’re going the apple route with no charger
My Mi9 came with 18W charger, but it supports 27W. I’ve never used the boxed charger, and bought a more powerful, smaller and lighter charger instead.
people who can afford to buy another if it sucks and still be financially stable
cool apple sold 3m iphones 12 in preorder
They already are
Sure, but do you own a proper (50W+) charger?
Many people upgrading probably don’t. I’m sure it’ll be a lot more reasonably priced that apples puny charger.
rich people?
Who tf preorder a phone?
Yeah like… I want to buy it too but I’d like to know the exact specs before smh
Xiaomi gonna end up like apple.
I’m interested in the phone, but I would never preorder something that hasn’t even been announced yet lol.
damn
