Turns out, you can get around Apple's anti brute force measure on an iPhone quite easily.

My point is that a premium phone should be secure hardware and software alike.
Glass back is not secure as phones drop.
After using some "flagsips" I settled back to a padfone e, which is still on 4.3, heavily modded. But the thing is a tank, fell down the stairs, got slammed in the table's edge, fell from the car and was thrown countless times from 1-1.5 meters high. Still functions well, had to replace the vibrator once and that's it. To me, this one is more flagshippy than all those flagships, two years and one visit for repair.

    suarez92, 23 Jun 2018LOL..... I didn't said that every Xiaomi device is plastic.... moreThank you!

          [deleted post]LOL..... I didn't said that every Xiaomi device is plastic. But every one is far from perfect (good) device. You all talk about lags and slowing down devices. Like I said on previous comment I have Iphone 6s which perfectly does everything my current daily driver does (Mate 10 Pro) and it came out in 2015, so after 3 years its still reliable device. Try that with one of Xiaomi devices.

          i am not apple fanboi either android. Like i said like them both, IOS is more faster and smoother , but Android is more user friendly.

          And you are limited, because not willing to try something new. Good luck living in a cave with smell of cheap chinesse products.

            And mid and premium doesnt mean less visits to repair service. I know that because i work in one repair service, and usually in most cases PEOPLE bring high end phones that need repair because of THEIR FAULT. So people don't know how to use PHONES.
            I really dont know where do you come from ( please let me know im dying to know)

              Looking at Sony Xperia L2, XA2, they also have plastic back... and the XA2 cost 350€ where I live...
              Since 2016 most Xiaomi phones are Glass and Aluminium, but you obviously bought something that cost less than 100€

                Android is more reliable and stable also no or almost no bugs after every update.
                Havew Moto X4 now and the phone for just 300 eur have 6GB ram 64GB disk space shaterproof screen and a 15A charger which can charge my phone in less than 45 minutes.
                Show me an Iphone which does any of theses? Noone and my phone cost just 300.
                You support a thievery brand which does nothing else juust rob its customers just the fact that Apple X cost 69 dollars to make which is 307 euros and sells for 1300 without a mac charger means the company is greedy as F.ck.
                I would never support a money hungry company. Also from the claim IOS slow down devices over updates and apple keep this in secret until people relises that and apple had to confirm means this company is nothing else but pure sh.t.
                Thats enough.

                  Even during our conflict (guess the country) we have iPhoneX, note 8, p20 pro, and s9+ on sale.

                  Guess what, plastic phones don't break their glass back, and don't cost $300+ to repair said glass.

                  Where I come from, premium means less visits to repair services.

LM... moreDude, right now I have Xiaomi device right next to me, I didn't use it for a while and turned it on. I don't compare devices. I am not either Android or IOS fan. I like them both, as both have great features.

                    But if you read comments below, IOS is never laggy, even older devices are faster than some newer Android devices. Yes Xiaomi is cheap plastic on the back, and not so reliable screen on front, which is fragile af. And their OS is a mix a lot of bugs, crashes and slow.

                      AnonD-731363, 23 Jun 2018Man well if you use your phone once per year yes its workin... moreAre you high ?
                      Iphone 5s lasted over 3 years,
                      Iphone 7 pushed over year and i got swapped him (not because of OS nor lag because their isnt lag, just because small screen)

                      And both of them was fast to do my every day jobs. And try that with fancy china Xiaomi, because their mid and low devices aren't suppose to serve more than a year, and became laggy af. So do a little info before writing nonsense , and try IOS before you judge.
