aabhinandan both companies offers bloated software? Oh just stop. Xiaomi and Nothing now arenât the same at all.
What Nothing provides for now is just a little wallpapers application. And nothing else. I guess Iâm not the only one who didnât even recognise at first itâs an ad.
What Xiaomi provides â tones of in-app advertising that just exists like youâre watching a website somewhere or have an app that has the only way to stay on the marketđ¤ˇđźââď¸ and I know what am I talking because I used Xiaomi. Itâs completely different experience. Yeah it has SO many features and sometimes it took me too much to find some simple options. You can also just easily change your region so you can get the Themes app disabled or Mi Pay come in, depends on a selected country. At my point this also takes too much space. Idk howâs that with HyperOS rn, but the exact same as I described was with MIUI. It has many cons because of it.
Also, letâs compare even a Phone 3a to the same price (or a bit less) Xiaomi. Iâm using mine from July. Every Xiaomi bought by my friend or groupmate would get tones of lags, unwanted ads in File explorer, for example (like how?! Itâs a system app!). While my Nothing is still playing like day one. I donât see any bugs even with Beta version, letâs say (not counting those I found a solution for and essential apps notification I may misunderstand a bit). Because the optimization of Xiaomi phones isnât that great to last them long unlike, surprisingly, Nothing.
Of course we donât know what happens in the future and how the company will solve their earning problems. Anyway now I canât even compare any Chinese company to it. Yeah, Glimpse is a bloatware at some point, but still itâs not enough for now to say this phone has âbloatwareâ.
Also unlike CMF_hacker Iâm not as huge fan of Nothing as I still love Samsung in some cases and use it sometimes. Letâs be honest I have more other, Iâd say, base complaints to Nothing, that I find more important.
For example, how youâd explain that stupid Android Switch that does literally nothing to properly move content from phone to phone? I had to fully reboot my phone after setting it up a bit and doing a few videos featuring the phone because this app works only while setting up the phone! But then why did I know this only after googling info then??? And I canât even remember how many times I was saying it here in a community⌠but seems like nobody cares and really wants spending hours to set up a new phone instead of having just 30 minutes and your new phone is set up completely. Oh.
Or well. Why Essential Space still doesnât have any synchronisation option at least? This all keeps me attached to the current phone until theyâll find a better solution to it. I definitely wonât move to Samsung as I got used to Essential Space (the one app that finally helps me planning and I donât wanna swear at it).
Theyâd better copy Smart Switch from Samsung to seamlessly move everything without any cloud storages and accounts from Nothing to Nothing at least. Lock Glipmse is really nothing compared to this biggest issue that somehow consists.
And the last â after any complaints you should give suggestions. A few members (and also me) gave a few creative suggestions on how Nothing can avoid adding such stuff to OS. Maybe you have your own vision on how to do it, then tell it! Maybe Adam will read it and send to the team.
