Can't install app because it isn't "certified" by the government
Can't install app because it isn't "certified" by the government
There's a certain "people's republic" where they introduced a new government signature on all android apps. For "safety", as they "check" the apps for you 😉
For now it can be bypassed after three pages of scary warnings but in the future?
Maybe it could be a big reason of why they're liking harmony os that much, you don't need to manually approve android apps if android apps are completely unsupported

Might want to get out of china.

There are reasons why it's cheaper, and none of them improve your life.
There are plent of cheap chinese phones supported by lineage os tho.
Eh BIOS level rootkits have been around for a while. If uncle sam wants to watch you, believe me they will, just the same way uncle china does.

Well today it's maybe a bad idea (I havent really digged through it all recently but it seems to be a not good idea), but back in the day Xiaomi was the beast phone for cheap, with all the bells & whistles like swappable battery, sd card, good CPU & RAM etc. for a fraction of the cost of an iPhone or Samsung.
So well, time changes!
My 5 year old Xiaomi I got for €350 has about the same specs as an iPhone 16, except for the much better chip in the iPhone.
