AnonD-108815, 22 Dec 2014Well, it sell quite nice here in developed country (Indone... moreDon't judge the device before I've used it? How many Xiaomi devices have you handled? I've handled them ALL because I've been in China before Xiaomi existed so I've seen them grow from small Chinese startup while all of you didn't even know they existed to where they are today.
Hilarious you guys demonstrate just loyalty and almost exhibit proudness of owning a Xiaomi phone but what will happen when someone else decides to make a better spec'd phone and sell it for less? You guys will forget Xiaomi in a heartbeat -- that's what. Xiaomi's business model (if you call it that) is 100% dependent on being the cheapest in the market.

Anonymous, 22 Dec 2014Next thing you going to ask them sells in Artic or Greenlan... moreYou don't get it (as usual, not surprised). They are the #3 "global" manufacturer of phones yet most of the globe can't even see or buy one. This statistic is totally skewed since their home market houses 1/6+ of the world's population. Subtract this one single market and all of sudden they've fallen completely off the list.
I think to be really classified as "global" you should at least be in more regions than you're not, which would include a mix of both developed and undeveloped countries.

It's true that the bulk of their supporters are in China and being as populous as China is that counts for a lot, however, as a foreigner living in China and personally owning a xiaomi 3 for the past 9 months, I feel like they make good phones. I know a lot of people with them and they seem to fair better than their similar counterparts (Huawei/Lenevo/etc). They have a bit to learn with the styling but all in due time. I think in a year or two they will do very well in the NA market. Considering the price and the amount of tech. you're getting I think Xiaomi does it well. When you consider how much more Samsung, HTC, or Apple cost here. Anyway, I've converted a few fellow foreigners over here and they've all expressed only positive things to me at least.

Obviously they will have a hard time in developed countries (especially with developed ip laws)..

Take away their China sales and they won't even make the top 10, goes to show how dependent they are on their home turf which also happens to be the worlds most populated.
I really want to see Xiaomi launch its phones in a developed country just to see how it goes.
