For your general knowledge, I own Xiaomi Poco F3/X4 GT/F5 now. Poco phones are infested with uninstallable bloatware that cannot be turned off, they have an unjustifiable constant access to the Internet. They are Chinese spyware.

          I don't understand why everyone is crying! Xiaomi always hat a waiting period when you want to unlock your phone and besides that who cares about not getting updates when you unlock it? You unlock your phone to put a customROM on it so it doesn't matter anyways.

            Xiaomi is digging their grave...

            One of the key reasons why users got so hooked to Xiaomi phones, is that you can just easily unlock bootloader..

            These statements, pfft. what a drag!

              This is just stupid.
              Why Xiaomi oh why.
              Unlocked bootloader = freedom to flash whatever operating system you want to your device whenever you want.

              Xiaomi why do you want to limit my freedom to only 3 ?
              WRONG MOVE XIAOMI! If you continue on this path you will end up like Samsung or Realme or Oneplus or other ***... Nobody wants to become like Samsung... Trust me. YOU WILL LOOSE !!!

                Modest Mind, 08 Nov 2023If Xiaomi blocks unlocking bootloader for international use... moreThis would certainly apply to imported phones released for the China domestic market and that is enough for me to personally blacklist them.

                  Literally never buying a Xiaomi device again with this new bootloader unlocking policy. LOL.

                      Stinger, 09 Nov 2023I hope the US government will blacklist xiaomi too this yea... moreYou sound like a kid do you no what that will do to the smartphone industry Samsung will whatever they like
