  1. Agree with you completely.

  2. You can use custom roms on most Xiaomi phones,and doing it on the Poco F1 will not void warranty.

  3. Xiaomi is the number one phone seller in India.

  4. They are better than apple phones as they come with an SD card slot,can be used with a custom rom and I dont have the benchmarks,but from user experience the battery life is better.

  5. Re: I wonder which country bought most of them? on Chinese Smartphone Maker Xiaomi Completes Its 2018 Goal of Shipping 100 Million Units of Phones (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1

    They are the number one phone seller in India for sure.

  6. Have a friend who travels to India or China regularly? That is how I got mine for a great price. Beware that US networks may not be compatible with some of those phones.

  7. Xiaomi has its own line of Android One phones for stock fans.Check out the MiA2: https://www.gsmarena.com/xiaom...

  8. The phones are phenomenal on Chinese Smartphone Maker Xiaomi Completes Its 2018 Goal of Shipping 100 Million Units of Phones (zdnet.com) · · Score: 1, Interesting

    As a Redmi Note 5 Pro owner,I have to say that this is well deserved and not surprising at all.The phone is excellent especially for something that costs around 200$. The Poco F1 is creating waves too,and along with Note 5 Pro's great battery,it also stays cool as a cucumber at all times. That Xiaomi phones provide bang for the buck is proven by the fact that they are the #1 seller in India And Xiaomi is going in the right direction overall as rooting the Poco F1 will not void warranty. Well deserved overall,and I think Americans and Canadians are missing out on some great budget phones which don't compromise on anything.

  9. Samsung,Xiaomi have their own app stores and I believe more will follow soon.

  10. Let Facebook have to let their users interact with other similar sites.For example if we guys start slashbook,we should be able to semd a friend request to Zuckerberg.

    If they cannot be broken up under tge current laws then I am of the opinion thye must then be changed,for Google has a monopoly of search engines and FB on the social network scene. They have done more harm than good and are already far too embedded into the life of ther average individual. This isnt about laws,but public health.

  12. Why are such people even consulted? And screw 'economists',they are the among the most useless bunch of experts out there. Break 'em up,specially google and facebook!

  13. Due to a lack of capability,not a lack of intent.China is in conflict with all its neighbours,beacuse it is a tyrant. Otherwise nice try,chang.

  14. Re: And IoT will be much more secure... right on Medtronic Locks Down Vulnerable Pacemaker Programming Kit Due To Cybersecurity Concerns (theregister.co.uk) · · Score: 3, Insightful

    I don't think anyone wants you to believe that IoT devices will be much more secure. They just claim to add some small convenience to your life and the masses are buying them like hotcakes with little concern for security or privacy.

  15. The company has gone downhill ever since he joined,and a lot of sjw politics has been injected from around the same time. There must be enough pressure put on google to fire him or the authorities should just break it up into 10 different companies.

    Agree,in the 60s,70s the idea was that people would have to work a lot less once technology took over most activities. For some reason,the opposite has happened.

  19. Save yourself the trouble by not giving it away in the first place!

  20. Far better for tech stuff and a lot of things,as DDG shows a short summary or the relevant command(from askubuntu/Stack) at the top of the page. Saves me many clicks.

    Incompetent? Can you please tell me the level of Unemployment prevailing at this moment?

  22. I agree. I see many tech enthusiasts use DDG,not only for tuhe privacy factor but also because DDG is better for tech questions

  23. What happens when they hit !g at the end of a searxh query? Infinite loop?

  24. I have the same experince,and I believe that this is due to the bubble effect which DDG speaks of
