It was known when they launched, that xiaomi's interface look was apple "inspired", but besides that I dont know why it can be called shameless ripoff, sure there must be other reasons. The feel and look of the phone actually have some kind of own personality, is different from IOS and different from stock Android, and probably will get more different with time. Apple, probably, somewhere in time also took "inspiration" from other companies ideas.
