Boston, MA 08/19/2014 (wallstreetpr) – Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL) push to gain a sizeable amount of market share in China continues to receive setbacks, this time around from the country’s largest smartphone company in terms of market share, Xiaomi, which continues to copy most of its designs and developments. Xiaomi is at the moment the largest smartphone company in China in terms of market share having surpassed Samsung on the same. Its growth and success in China according to many sources can be attributed to the fact that most of its devices look similar to Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL)’s devices.
Xiaomi Strange Copying Tactics
Xiaomi sales in china continue to grow like wildfire with Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), on the other hand, continuing to face suppression and scrutiny from regulators on the other side. Apple growth in China could, on the other hand, be hindered by the fact that the government has instructed mobile careers to stop spending money on advertising, a move that looks set to reduce incentives, which were offered for expensive smartphones produced outside the country.
The copying by Xiaomi looks to have gone overboard as the company’s founder continues to dress like Steve Jobs in events while also going to the extent of using the “One More thing” presentation Gimmick that was synonymous with the Apple’s founder. Xiaomi upcoming Mi 4 smartphone looks similar in every detail to iPhone 5. The phone will run on Android-based OS called MIUI 6 that emphasizes on simplicity and color, just like iOS 7 that powers iPhones.
Mi Tablet similar to iPhone 5C
MIUI 6 apps also look similar to those in iOS 7 in terms of colorful designs and flat icons just as in iPhone 5. Xiaomi compass Calendar and settings apps as featured in MIUI 6 looks similar to the same in iOS 7 with only minor details being excluded, Xiaomi affordable tablet Mi Pad has already been labeled replica to iPhone 5C as it is available in similar colors with its interface featuring bright colors similar to those in iOS 7.
