Can anyone fucking explain this

can anyone fucking explain this
google pixel 1030$
xiaomi mi 5s plus
479$
WTF

The better the phone, the more it costs. Basic stuff

how is it better same shit even a little better on the chinese side man

the real choice here is, are you willing to join the botnet for the software support?

> this guy just looks at spec sheets

Xiaomi doesn't spend money on marketing. Production in China costs less. They don't care about big profit margins. Since they're not as well known, they don't care if they release a bad product because their reputation doesn't have much to lose.

Meanwhile everyone had high expectations about the "pure Google product". They probably put more money into research, production and marketing of the Pixel than Xiaomi has with all of their devices combined so far.

>Google Pixel is $1030
>it's literally on sale for either $650 or $770 for the XL

Dollar sign goes in front of the number you mouth breathing moron.

...

Fuck off you fucking pajeer just buy an iphone

I want to experience the Pure Android botnet

I'll need a live proxy

>MIUI
automatically makes the phone worth approximately $0

garbage does tend to be cheaper than good products

see: plastic winblows laptops vs MacBook pro

You can always flash the thing. It has good community support.
But if that justifies spending money on some else's marketing, go ahead.

One has burger bands one does not

one of these things has malware in the baseband processor
take a guess

Catering to the demographic that thinks $800 phones are normal because contracts.

Still enjoying my axon 7 desu

The Google one of course, backed up by the NSA.

Nobody has pointed out that the pixel has bigger bezels and for some reason still needs onscreen buttons. To me this is unacceptable for a $100 android phone, never mind $1000.

Seriously, who can justify buying a pixel xl over a xiaomi mi mix? Stock android is not worth $500, miui is actually better in so many ways.

leave now

Enjoy your $1000 phone that looks like it's designed for street shitters?

It's the front facing camera. You get what you pay for.

>French-speaking Canada

the Pixel works in civilized countries, the Mi5s doesn't

Basically, who would you trust with your build quality warranty for your expensive device?

Some chink factory or Google?

Even if they're both made in the same factory I would pay the premium just for the fact that you can drive up to Google's office and get a refund instead of flying to china to attempt to contact Xiaomi.

It's known as chink shit for a reason. If you're going to spend $500 might as well shell out a bit more for non-chink shit than roll the dice with lucky dragons.

I recall reading somewhere that Google wanted to take a more Apple-esque approach to their phones after the Nexus 6P.

That happens to include an unreasonable price for what you're getting.

You don't need more if you know how to put put AOSP into any phone.

>Some chink factory or Google?
One and the same. Google doesn't build their own phones in the USA any more than Apple does. You wouldn't be able to afford them if they did.

>aliexpress warranty
it is a fucking joke, if smartphone arrives everything is fine
>xiaomi warranty
oh you live in europe, fuck you.
You can use our paid service for only 65% value of the phone.

My phone came with broken touch, yes it worked but sometimes (few times in a day, went fully retarded and stopped working until reset)
Fuck Xiomi

>no storage expansion
When did people buy into this meme?

>trying to cash in on the autismos who buy fag shit because it's branded as 'fag shit for faggits'
see apple for how this is effective.

This. Also, checked.

>one and the same
HAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHHAHAHA No.

Whats not to like about miui?

>Production in China costs less
>Implying Jewgle and HTC make that phone outside of China
topkek goy

>HTC
>not a Chink factory

>living in a place that has no shops selling Xiaomi products with warranty
Do you live in Poland or something?

>display size is more efficient
