The Chinese tech industry moves far to quickly!
Less than a week after the Xiaomi Mi3 launch,
rumour of the Xiaomi Mi4, and a new Linux based
MiOS have already surfaced!
According to insiders at Xiaomi, the Beijing phone
maker has been working on it’s own Linux-based
operating system since April this year. Internally
known as MiOS, the new system is similar to
Google’s Chrome in that it is browser-based,
suggesting that it could run on phones, TV’s,
tablets and even netbooks in the future.
Employees at the company even claim that MiOS
is undergoing tests in a next generation Android
phone which could eventually become the Xiaomi
Mi4!
Xiaomi phones now run on a heavily customised
version of Android named MIUI. As standard MIUI
comes striped of all Google services and apps
( although they can easily be installed) and even
runs Xiaomi’s own App Store. The idea of MiOS is
a very exciting one, but unless it is going to be
compatible with Android applications, we feel it
might be to much of a challenge even for the
mighty Xiaomi!
What do you think of the idea of MiOS? Would you
be happy to but in to a new OS, or do you think it
is risky business?
