                  Xiaomi should make Poco like BBK made OnePlus, a focused brand as flagship killer with its own OS that is closer to regular Android. BBK made OnePlus Oxygen OS to be like stock, despite their other brands using Color/Funtouch OS.

                    redmi should be independent brand too, no just sub-brand anymore.

                      Good job. I like the philosophy/design decisions in the F1. I have no problem with LCD and plastic backs. I actually prefer as they're more practical and makes the phone more affordable!

                                They did this to compete with Realme directly. Competition is always good for the industry, and more so for the consumers.

                                Let's see how Poco 2 turns out.

                                      It's too early for Poco to be an independent brand. They currently only have 1 model to sell and that's already outgoing (2 years old, but still can be bought).

                                      realme has many variants and most of them are selling well so it's OK if realme becomes an independent brand.
