Changing rom is great, that's one of the greatest thing about having an Android phone. Hell, i even use custom rom in my phone. To draw out its potential, yes. But is that what a regular customer should do?

Basically, we as the customers should receive a finished product where we can immediately use after buying it. Switching rom is what advanced users do. Besides changing rom is also require root, and i believe rooting voided the warranty of the phone.

          Google suddenly you!!!

          Pixel for flagship
          Nexus for midrange
          Android One for entry level

          Of course not the hardware but the price!!

            Nice, but Xiaomi selling MIUI service too so is will be impossible to be true on their flagship phone.

              Give me a Xiaomi Nexus (like the real Nexus of old, flagship specs at mid-range prices) and I'll be a very happy buyers. I'm sure this Android One will also be great, but I really wanted that wannabe "flagship killer" (that now costs the same as a S8 in many regions) from the media-hype company to see what's the real deal.

                This is a great news!!! I have not jumped on the Xiaomi bandwagon so far, due to heavily skinned MIUI. I will most likely get a Xiaomi phone, if it is available with stock Android in India.

                  Before anyone pointing out, yes yes our currency suck.

                  Anyway, stock Android, xiaomi hardware, I might consider it IF priced right.

                    Well this is great news! Pretty sure pricing would be reasonable

                              Xiaomi should be involved with Android One long-term; their goals seem to be compatible anyway.

                                more Android one phones please. mid-range and flagship. Google's Pixels are ridiculous in cost. I'd buy iPhone for the price.

                                    Good hardware specifications with affordable price and stock Android with latest update from Google would be a great phone
