Samsung fans in 2020: "We are okay if any Android makers want to use Samsung innovation and make similar design as Samsung, there are markets for cheaper alternatives." Applr fans in 2022:" Noooo, middle pill shaped camera cutout can only applied by Apple. THAT IS OUR INNOVATION. No middle pleease. Android is bad. Apple is king."

In the time where phone manufacturers doing wars to achieve the most full-screen experience, i wonder why Xiaomi even did this? It doesn't pack special face recognition features, even the two cameras looks far away to each other, making the island bigger. Any good reason for it?

Yext, 13 hours agoSo just because it's Apple it automatically can't be original? Oh, come on man. I�... more Actually, yes. Because novelty ideas are rare these days and Apple is not known for them either. What you see now often, is repackaged/recycled old designs.

Try google search Samsung HOP LTPO. Apple needs Samsung technology, but Samsung dont need Apple technology. Apple is a good follower of Samsung. Thank you Samsung for being the most innovative company on earth.

I wonder why they had flash for selfie camera on note 5 pro and dont use it anymore. I have seen this double camera done before too on other brands. This think looks exactly as dumb as on iphone but in smaller scale. For iphone it's just big hole in the screen that made the notch even bigger cause the screen space between the pill and top edge have no use other then like RPG lighting and that pill is moved down so it's back on the same size as the first notch on iphones. Anyway where is this Civi even released ? I dont think the Civi 1 even made it's way to EU and staid in China like K series or was specially for India market. I just hope none of this come on other Xiaomi phones but then again i dont really care as i am waiting still for something more compact before i buy new phone so my note 5 Pro EU version as AI dual cam works fine for now and i dont want to buy new phone that is same size or larger just to have it perform better. Also i can understand the cam hole for middle or in corner and dont see a lot of problems in it but i would prefer a popup or under display cam as i hardly ever use it anyways. In 4 years and something 4-5 months i have used that phone i probably have made skype calls with it like at most maximum 5 times. Also i dont think i even have done selfie pics more then 10 times. While i have used the selfie cam a lot cause of the flash to see in a places with it like a tight space for suspended ceiling or something like that where is enough space to slip the phone top in with the flash on and selfie cam on to see whats there. It's a useful tool this way

Anonymous, 11 hours agoLOL. A pill-shaped cutout in the middle is original? If it's on the right, is it original... more I never said it was original, all I said was that they were the first to put it there. Xiaomi doing the same a couple days later is no coincidence.

A beautifully designed phone gor those who value design and selfie more than other details. This is good from Xiaomi. I like this approach of putting different types of priorities into different models.

Yext, 13 hours agoSo just because it's Apple it automatically can't be original? Oh, come on man. I�... more LOL. A pill-shaped cutout in the middle is original? If it's on the right, is it original as well? Apple copied a pill-shaped cutout, and that is fine. Saying that it's original is ridiculous.

Samsung user, 17 hours agoHahahahaha. So now Apple fans believe Apple decision to put it in the middle as innovation? ... more The same display manufactured by Samsung uses Apple's ltpo tech which is even used in Samsung devices. Most phones camera sensors are by Sony. Most phones have modem by Qualcomm. Every organisation needs other organisations for success. And don't talk about copying. Samsung is the king of copying. They copy everything from Apple to compete. Apple sued Samsung many times. Still some cases are going on. Most of them settled by both of them coming to understanding and dropping. Samsung has paid Apple more money for cases than Apple buying stuff from Samsung. So there is no one innovator. Everyone should be appreciated.

I'm not an Apple fan, in fact I don't like this Dynamic Island thing and pill shaped middle cut out, but that's exactly why I hate that Xiaomi is copying it, because if they are then others will follow as well.

Yext, 13 hours agoYou are right, (close to) nobody can make an entirely original product, but this is still clea... more Apple made a thing popular, doesn't mean Apple invented and somebody doing something after Apple is not a ripoff. Ripoff is blatantly copying original and it doesn't apply to anything Apple.

Ordinary man, 23 hours agoYou are ignorance. The under display camera and fast charging technology were pioneered by the... more You are right, (close to) nobody can make an entirely original product, but this is still clearly an iPhone 14 Pro series rip-off, the timing and even the rumors of Xiaomi adopting the Dynamic Island feature as well make it so extremely blatant it's unbelievable. If Xiaomi really did this on their own why wouldn't they have launched it before the iPhone 14 series launched? Everyone knew when Apple will launch their new series.

Anonymous, 22 Sep 2022It still doesn't erase the fact that those designs weren't made by Apple themselves.... more Literally even tech YouTubers who use Apple tech admit Apple is rarely first when it comes to new tech, instead they wait a bit to get it up to their standards, they like to release fully polished product rather then polishing it across multiple generations. But that won't change opinion of some.

Copycat company hits again! No surprise 😆🤌

Anonymous, 18 hours agoYet only Huawei/Honor and Realme copied it before, and even then neither of them copied Samsun... more Hahahahaha. So now Apple fans believe Apple decision to put it in the middle as innovation? You know what innovation is? That's when one company creates something soo great and soo useful, even the competitors CHOOSE to make partnership with it and buy its tech product from that company. That is also the explanation why 80% of all iphone 14 series OLED are created and manufactured by Samsung. Samsung innovations are confirmed and appreciated by Apple. Every Apple fans who buys iphone 14 series, would give about minimum of 250 USD to Samsung. By doing so, Samsung will get more money for research and maintain as the most innovative company on earth.
