"Some #Xiaomi phones have a malfeature to bleep out phrases that express political views #China does not like. In phones sold in Europe, Xiaomi leaves this deactivated by default, but has a back door to activate the censorship. This is the natural result of having nonfree software in a device that can communicate with the company that made it." https://stallman.org/archives/2021-jul-oct.html#23_September_2021_(Xiaomi_phone_censorship)

In China können Smartphones zensiert werden. Aber können das auch die Geräte für den europäischen Markt? Ja, sagt die Regierung in Litauen - und gibt ihren Verbrauchern eine klare Empfehlung.#Litauen #China #Cybersicherheit #Zensur #Xiaomi #Huawei #Smartphones #Handys #Mobiltelefone

This product seems aimed at the Chinese market for now, but would likely be more accepted if the camera could have a small hardware shutter over it. The presence of an indicator light though does show some attention was given to privacy. I like the concept of a heads-up display built into a design that looks pretty like regular glasses. A big bonus of course is that Facebook, Google, etc has no involvement, so as far as we know, no data is being sold to advertisers.
Ideal uses could be a teleprompter for speeches, navigation prompts, menu/sign translations, etc.

Xiaomi has unveiled its first smart glasses, the Xiaomi Smart Glasses, which they say is more than just a secondary smartphone display.
Xiaomi has seen significant growth in South Africa since establishing a dedicated local team in the country at the end of 2020.
There is good reason why their phones are selling so well, and for many it will become difficult to choose between Samsung and Xiaomi in the near future. On paper anyway, buck for buck, Xiaomi looks like it is offering slightly more than Samsung.

США официально исключили Xiaomi из чёрного списка. Окружной суд США по округу Колумбия вчера издал окончательное постановление, освободившее американское Министерство обороны от обозначения Xiaomi как «коммунистической китайской военной компании», что запрещало бы американцам инвестировать в китайский технологический гигант. «Компания благодарна за доверие и поддержку своих пользователей, партнёров, сотрудников и акционеров по всему миру, — говорится в заявлении представителя Xiaomi для […]

Xiaomi Mi A2, Android (One) 9, Sicherheitsupdate: 5.2.2019
Seit kurzem läßt sich das Dunkle Design in den Apps Kontakte bzw. Telefon nicht mehr ausschalten, mit dem Hinweis, dass der dunkle Modus in den Geräteeinstellungen eingestellt wäre.
Dies ist aber nicht der Fall. Auch ein zwangsweises Schalten auf Hell in den Geräteeinstellungen bringt keine Änderung.
Cache beider Apps wurde bereits gelöscht, reboot ebenfalls durchgeführt.
Tipps?
