sounds pretty bad, is it compatible with android apps?
Comment on Anon is incompatible
ICastFist@programming.dev 4 hours agoHas more bloatware than samsung and more spyware than facebook. Not the person you talked with first, but I also have a xiaomi and it’s borderline unusable if you don’t use adb to uninstall some of the ad shit. They throw ads on gallery, video player, music player, wallpaper, calculator, file browse.

ah i see, does it not integrate with google play services by default or something?

It does, the international version comes with google play and the store and everything, it’s a typical android phone like what you get from motorola or samsung, with a custom UI and lots of bloatware

Did you get one of the really cheap ones? I have heard they are cheap for a reason (e.g. they get the money from elsewhere, AKA selling you).

I wish that was a problem exclusive to the cheaper phones or even xiaomi. I’ve had a Samsung Galaxy S20, it came with so much fucking bullshit apps. My gf and her sister both have a mid-high xiaomi (dunno about the specific model), ads are every-fucking-where.
