So it looks like USFags aren't going to get Xiaomi products any time soon :^)

Americans keep getting ducked raw in the ass.
Patents win again!

>More intriguing is the inclusion in the suit of the unannounced Xiaomi Mi 5 and Xiaomi Mi 5 Plus
HAHAHA OH GOD THIS FAGGOT KEKED AMERICA SO HARD
>>51713604
Good, we don't need more chink shit. iPhones are the best mobiles anyway.

Hmm that's not bad. I'm betting there's no removable battery and no micro sd card slot though.
>>51713604
I just hope this time they add support for US bands

>removable battery meme
all batteries are removable, moron.

Not even surprised.
>>51713720
Yeah, without breaking the phone though.
>>51713720
They are not if you count voiding the warranty though.
And nothing of value was lost.

I already hate apple so god damn much, please dont give me another reason to hate them

By the time the battery will need to be replaced your warranty will be long gone. So just go ahead and replace it yourself.
No micro SD is a legitimate complaint. I currently use a MI4 LTE. When I bought it you literally could not get a 64GB model.
My partner works in China so getting the actual handset is easy.
>>51713604
Do any phones have the snapdragon 820 inside them yet? Does it have the same overheating issue the 810 had?

Eh, I just prefer having an extra replaceable battery on me in case I run low on battery. I have one of those 10kmAh Xiaomi power banks but they're a bit bulky & heavy
>>51713604
I love the way the article jumps into the specs instead of expanding on the infringing patent.
I don't care about apple or android but thank God these chinks got sued. Bloody copying, unoriginal scum Chinese they are.

I really, really hope there aren't nearly 9 million patents.
>>51714027
good goy, keep on buying the "original" NSA-approved model and be sure to update each and every year. :^)
>>51713901
Fair enough. I used to carry around a spare with my HD2 but found that clumsy enough to just prefer a phone with good battery life. I have a small powerbank in my bag just in case.
>patent troll companies that sit on patents with no products are legal and able to fuck up companies that make actual efforts
Nothing wrong with that.
>>51713655
>we don't need chinkshit
>iPhones are definitely not chinkshit !
>>51715136
I don't see anything wrong in keeping US customers away from cheap quality products too. They can keep breaking the bank for the latest itoys

Does anyone have the name of the judge responsible for not tossing these cases out of court? I want to take one for the team.

Enjoy not having a US market, you idiots.

I'd rather have the NSA botnet than the chink commie botnet 2bh
