No they will not.

1. Chinese Gov has Huawei's back, not Xiaomi.

2. Their decision to make their OS to show crazy amount of ads is really short sighted.

3. They are falling dangerously behind Huawei in both sales and quality of product.

The Chinese government backs several companies in the same industry, there's no reason to believe they don't have both company's backs

This must be a Chinese mainland thing, I've never seen this on any of their devices.

I don't think so, I find the Xiaomi products to be very inticing and well built for the price. In the new era of smartphones where people will no longer be willing to shell out big bucks and subsidies of smart phones from providers are faltering (or just ending.) Companies like Xiaomi stand to gain.

My experience doing business with Huawei and being on site for a while was that they even pit different divisions against each other. The fear of competition or being beaten by another Huawei division was much more evident than any external company.

They hide ideas for other divisions and act very competitive with each other.

Have you ever used actually used a Xiaomi product for some time? Sure they are cheap and look ok but they are so unreliable it gets unbearable after a few months.

I have: Xiaomi speakers, plugs, air purifier, water quality tester, water purifier, router, backpack, portable charger, fitness tracker, lightbulb, etc.

They all work very well, and are exceptional quality, considering their price.

And yet you don't own one of their smartphones.

MIUI showing ads? Are you sure they come from first party apps?

[snnn]

MIUI has another popular name: ADUI

There's no ads. At least not here in Singapore versions.
