Xiaomi smartphone is loved by many users (Image: Android Authority) Xiaomi has been affirming itself as one of the top 5 smartphone manufacturers in the world. The latest market share reports show that the Chinese tech maker is second only to the two big names, Apple and Samsung. The Chinese manufacturer is known for its affordable and high-performance smartphones, along with an extremely large ecosystem. From rice cookers, air conditioners, TVs, and laptop computers to smartphone accessories and many other smart devices. You can even buy Xiaomi-branded nail clippers. Xiaomi started to emerge and became known by many when selling smartphones, but this was not the first product that Xiaomi launched. The first product is the MIUI operating system. Xiaomi launched the MIUI interface for Android in August 2010. It quickly caught the attention of developers, as an alternative to other custom ROMs at the time. The first MIUI version was based on Android 2.2 Froyo, designed for smartphones like Google Nexus One, Nexus S, HTC Desire, Motorola Droid / Milestone and HTC HD2. At that time, Xiaomi did not produce its own smartphone so that it could introduce the MIUI operating system to users. Some of the outstanding features of MIUI compared to stock Android at that time were the ability to customize the lock screen, folders, theme support, the ability to uninstall apps from the home screen and the call / SMS blacklist. It can be seen that MIUI also draws a lot of inspiration from the iOS operating system. Xiaomi’s operating system is also very noticeable thanks to the development focused on the user community. It allows users to share ideas about what they want in subsequent MIUI versions. In 2011, Xiaomi launched its first smartphone, Mi 1. The smartphone has a simple design with a plastic outer shell, but inside it is equipped with a powerful Snapdragon S3 chip, with 1 GB RAm, capacity 4GB capacity and 1,930 mAh battery. This configuration is equivalent to the flagships at that time.
