FAQ
Does Xiaomi still show ads in its software?
Ad density has reduced across recent releases and can largely be disabled in settings, but the experience remains busier than stock Android.
How is Xiaomi's service network outside metros?
Broader than most Chinese rivals, which is a genuine advantage in smaller cities. Turnaround times vary considerably by location.
Are Xiaomi smart home products worth buying?
The value is strong within the ecosystem. Mixing them with other platforms is where the friction appears, since app support varies by product line.
