Trump's administration? Not surprised

    AnonD-923722, 15 Jan 2021I am fine with this ban. But hope that is just don't g... moreI doubt Trump will stop here he might go on to completely block Xiaomi like he did to Huawei

      Shui8, 15 Jan 2021Huawei became top 3 = kicked out. Xiaomi became top 3 = ki... moreAgreed

        Anonymous, 15 Jan 2021Haha, the next US President that comes in can overturn it.That's not how US legislation works.

        Besides, Biden has already said that he agrees with Trump on the ban on China/Huawei etc. so, you people need to stop with the blinded hope for an overturn.

        Biden couldn't do it if he wanted (NATIONAL SECURITY CONCERNS IS EXTREMELY SERIOUS and no sitting president is above the law) to but he does not anyway. He supports the ban.

          I don't understand why so much sympathy towards China in this forum? Any negative comments towards the country and people start bashing US. It's their country and they have all the rights to protect their privacy and their companies. China can sell their cheap phone to EU, no one is stopping them

            Huawei became top 3 = kicked out.
            Xiaomi became top 3 = kicked out.

            National security concerns? Pfftttt. More like if you cant compete with them, blacklist them. Especially when it comes to 5G tech. China tech is like BluRay, US like a CD currently. Not to mention smartphone division that got nothing to do with it. This white supremacy Trump's way has to stop.

            Biden Administration will make things right again. Sharing tech, working closely if got any national security involved. Huawei even open & welcome anyone to join it.

              Please ban Oppo too.
              It increases sales year by year.
              It is threat not only for Apple but also for Samsung.

It doesn't matter if it's security related. Trump's decisions can be overturned by Biden when he comes in. There's no decision that can't be overturned.

                      I am fine with this ban. But hope that is just don't get further or even maybe remove the ban. This ban means US companies cannot invest in Xiaomi, but it doesn't mean US companies cannot work with Xiaomi. This isn't the entity list like Huawei ones, this is different. So technically, Xiaomi can still use Google Services and Snapdragon chips. So be relieved. Just hope Xiaomi isn't added to the entity list.

                        Will Xiaomi lose GMS? Qualcomm SoC?

                          Anonymous, 15 Jan 2021So such an order can be given by the Executive, but not rev... moreIt's NATIONAL SECURITY not Trump / Biden or any sitting president security.

                            This guy is the real anti-capitalist, wow he needs to get down his position ASAP

                              Why Assembling phones in China?

                                AnonD-923722, 15 Jan 2021Trump should stop it. Without Huawei, the industry already ... moreFor whom? Americans, etc. don't receive any of these products (OPPO, vivo, Redmi, Xiaomi, etc), they are mostly handcuffed to China and that region with a few in the EU.

                                So, let if happen. Perhaps, the wise OEM will learn to invest more in those countries that they do not, if not, die off slowly.

                                      Lets US market pay double price forever. Go* saves Trump forever... Build the wall that it's what matter. The life of people dying from diseases and viruses is the minor thing. Do you want to survive? Pay insurance to Trump's friends.
