Yeah the iPhone 17 is ugly. Whereas Xiaomi's 17 Pro Max rear screen is amazing. Sets the whole phone apart from the competition.

Funny how someone can claim a certain number is theirs. Lol.

" they’re both Android! Literally the same OS."

You really need to learn about operating systems other than iOS if you're going to speak on them. As of HarmonyOS 5.0, which devices are transitioning to now at a fast pace as well new devices being released with HarmonyOS are starting at 5.0, it no longer uses any Android code whatsoever. There are plenty of articles out there that have reported this: www.techadvisor.com/article/2544988/huawei-has-removed-all-android-code-from-its-operating-system.html

Xiaomi's HyperOS is based on Android.






Ok, so harmony is not Android? And hyper is reskinned Android to look like iOS?

You uneducated braindead melt. Apple has NOT copied Xioami FFS. This is an OLD Xiaomi design, Apple have copied them. Do some God damn research, its your friggin job man.


You're an embarrassment.

Your just gonna completely ignore the fact Xiaomi named the whole lineup the same as the iPhone and skipped the number 16 this year?

Xiaomi CEO is very open about their admiration for Apple, they don't hide it.

FINALLY someone saying what everyone else is thinking…expect of course the other copers commenting below defending Xiawxi because they clearly cannot afford the real deal. 😂


Seriously though this is symptomatic of most of tech coming out of China these days, from their EVs (Xiawxi’s SU7 is a Porsche Taycan ripoff) to their jets (their J-35 is an F-35 ripoff) and it’s a pity really because China has so much potential if they finally focussed on doing their own thing. Hopefully they correct course before it’s too late…

You do realise Apple have copied Xiaomi aye? they've had this design for years.

Correct. HarmonyOS no longer uses Android code, and is pure HarmonyOS.

HyperOS is like Samsungs OneUI, Vivo's OriginOS, Oppo's ColorOS, etc. It's based on Android with it's on unique UI and features.

The back actually doesn't look like the new iPhone it has 2 cameras on the island and wide angle separately below. And it also has a secondary screen on the back so no it doesn't look like it. Yes many UI elements are copied but so does Apple. Everyone copies everyone. People also seem to forget many years back Xiaomi made a square front camera sensor aswell but nobody mentioned it

They came out almost the same time so how could Xioami have copied Apple when these devices take many months to design, develop and test, etc ?

Everyone? You mean Apple fanboys! So Xioami managed to produce this phone from scratch within days of the iPhone release? Ydo you realize these things take many months to design and produce? And btw premium Android phones cost as much if not more than iPhones so it's got nothing to do with 'afford' but just go ahead and keep sipping that fruity coolaid 🍏 (still waiting for Apple to release their copy of an Android folding phone?)
