          Anonymous, 09 Feb 2021Almost every company use this kind of strategy .... Natu... moreFair point. But Xiaomi stands out from the rest. I think the only ones that come close to them (number wise) are Samsung. But Samsung has better software update policy for its models.
          Realme, One Plus, Huawei (even before the ban), Sony, Asus, never released so many models in a single year.
          Just look and count how many models Xiaomi released just in 2020 alone and you know what I mean (and I am talking about global models, not Chinese ones).
          Like I said, is a wise business strategy for profit, but for customers is not good. For me it feels like I am being cheated. A company like that will never deliver. And up until now, for me anyway, they didn't.

              Mike9625, 08 Feb 2021Why to cancel his opinion? Not everyone will agree with you... moreSurprise surprise, pretty much all phone brands are manufactured if not, assembled in China due to cheaper labor costs.

              Choosing a different phone brand doesn't really mean anything anymore since (we) the consumers, are fueling this type of corporate slavery in China and other emerging market countries.

              Also, some smartphones are built better than others yes, but their durability hasn't changed that much in the decade since they were first introduced. Just look at Android phones using Gorilla Glass from 1st to 6th (current) gen. The glass still cracks easily.

              That's just one of the many issues that smartphones are still facing nowadays but I digress and do not want to make this comment a 'wall of text'.

It's not like you're getting anything substantially better by paying a lot more for other brands. I'm pretty sure iPhones and Samsungs have more reliability issues than Xiaomi.

                            Naturally they will take care of their flagships .. and less for midrange and almost none for the low end devices.. this includes Xiaomi devices.

                            Personally, this is ok, consider the price of each categories ask for ... And it not fair to just point a finger to Xiaomi alone ...

                                  experienced freeze, sudden restart, overheating or any other glitch. So I'm not so sure why is so many beliefs of poor quality of all Chinese phone manufacturers. And I live in Balkans and cannot expect by default quality of goods that arrived here, like USA or Western Europe.

                                      Hope they won't ban Xiaomi like they banned Huawei. And Xiaomi will beat Samsung too.
