I usually miss that time frame and come back to my phone when it's fully charged. You'd need to be glued to your smartphone literally nonstop during your awake time to actually find a problem with this charging. All I see is stupid spec boasting. What is 240W charging for when you leave your phone on the charger for at least 30-60 minutes anyway?

And that's JUST charging. Let's not get started on the standardization of 120Hz AMOLED panels in midrange devices, the standardization of 12/256 SKUs as base models, the pioneering of Silicon Carbide batteries as of late, etc..

          2) Having your own identity and R&D drive *cannot* make you blind to whatever everyone is making. At the end of the day, you can still see Apple's DNA in their products + the best everyone else is doing. Can you say that about many Chinese brands?
          3) QC already existed way before those Chinese brands entered that space, in fact that name is even a trademark by Qualcomm, and the efforts you are referring to started as a way to not pay royalties to Qualcomm. However, there were quite a few Chinese companies spearheading the GaN charger revolution and driving that R&D. That is one of the very few examples where most R&D was actually on their side.

                Anonymous, 03 Jan 2025BYD have more R&D than Apple + Qualcomm+ intel combined... moreI'm sorry but what you wrote is nonsense that's very easy to fact check. Chinese industrial culture when it comes to private companies is to minimize R&D and that's why they aren't leaders in new technology but they are leaders in making existing products great and affordable. Nothing wrong with that, they are masters of scale.

                BYD is the private company with the biggest R&D in China as they spend 5.5 billion usd on it. Contrary to that Apple spends close to six times more or 30 billion usd on R&D. Intel spends 16 billion usd and Qualcomm spends 9 billion usd on R&D. Sony spends 5 billon usd on R&D, Samsung spends 18 billion, Microsoft spends 30 billion and Amazon spends whopping 85 billion.

                Now lets talk about cars, Honda spends 6.5 billion, Toyota spends 7.5 billion, Ford 8.2 billon, GM 10 billion, VW 20 billion. When it comes to BEV manufacturers Tesla spends 4.3 billion and Lucid close to 1 billion. So, in that regard BYD is the biggest spender when it comes to BEV manufacturers but not even close when it comes to established manufacturers or big tech.

                  This doesn't clear that poco brand is discontinued or the only website.

                      BYD is a car company
                      Xiaomi as tech company have even more R&D than BYD
                      And btw, Apple only have less than 50 5G patent
                      Meanwhile, Huawei..... Have more than 5000 5G patent

                      The thing is, you think small. China is big

                        Huawei? Now talking about xiaomi and poco.. Haha

                          They need to streamline their product lines and give their new ones a unique bloodline, not just rebrands of Xiaomi entry/midrangers.

                            DomtheCuber, 02 Jan 2025Xiaomi’s design team isn’t more productive, they’re just mo... moreI'm sure that Xiaomi doesn't have a single design team. I'd bet it has a team for each "line" of products. Maybe one for the number series, one for the Redmi note series, another for the Redmi series, and another for the more budget phones. Still, there's probably a lot of exceptions and crossover involved.

                              Xiaomi seller here. It's funny, because we also hide the poco phones in the store. Some stores have prices visible, while our doesn't. If someone asks, yes, we have them, or when someone buys from a website then we ship them, but it's very rare.

                                astolfo, 02 Jan 2025Sorry but this is just a made-up excuse.

Today, design language is very important because there's much higher barriers to entry in the market. As a manufacturer, you have to make your phones do the marketing for you when people walk with them down the street in order to get recognised. I do think a unified design language would've improved Huawei's sales, it's just that they didn't need it back then because the context behind the market back then was different to what it is today.

                                  Go look at their Y series from 2018-2019 and tell me where is that "revolutionary" design language? And in the same time period, the A series from Samsung were doing great and iPhone just did the change to the X design language in their lineup.

                                  My country was filled to the brink with those Y series devices so much so you couldnt even tell one model from another. I was glad when they went down and other players came in to compete.

                                  Huawei got out and that gave a breathing room to Motorola, Xiaomi, and allowed Oppo to get inside the market.
                                  I literally dont miss them at all, the market is better everywhere without them.

Xiaomi released over 40 phones last year, meaning that the designers would have to design one phone every 9 days. And that’s if they don’t get any days off (and people should be getting days off). These designers have to make a whole entire phone in such a short time frame, and that means that they don’t have the time or energy to express any creativity in their designs. By contrast, a design team making 10 phones a year would have 20 days to make each phone even if they worked 200 days a year. I’d rather have 10 phones designed by people who are paid more to work less and have more time to express their creativity rather than 40 phones made by people who are just trying to get by and make unrealistic deadlines.

                                      And the same goes for most other departments. Xiaomi can make more money by not overloading their employees with the task of designing, producing, assembling, and coding for 40+ phones a year.
