I paid 250€ for my current Xiaomi and I love it. It's ridiculous how good the phone is compared to its cheap price.
No way I will stop using Chinese phones (especially since the CIA is a lot scarier than the CPC)
I love how, with the Snowden leaks and more, we know definitively that the US government is collecting all our data but people are super scared right now that China might be spying on them.
One thing's for sure: capitalism seems to be miles ahead of any socialist country when it comes to propagandizing their citizens. Because the best propaganda is the kind that you don't even know is there.
Same, xiaomi phones are 10x better than samshits for a third of the price. Really funny that the with the US blocking huawei, and now soon xiaomi, that the US will have access to only the worst phones.
