The Chinese Smartphone Company That Copies Apple Just Took Its Copying To A Whole New Level
MIUI 6 will be the default mobile operating system for Xiaomi's upcoming Mi 4 smartphone, a phone which already looks a lot like the iPhone 5. The software features a flat design with an emphasis on simplicity and color, just like Apple's iOS7, which powers the iPhone.
While you can't say Apple invented colorful design or flat icons, there's no denying that some of the MIUI 6 apps look strikingly similar to those in iOS 7.
Take a look at a few examples below, where we compare how Apple's Compass, Calendar, and Settings apps look compared to Xiaomi's (iOS 7 apps on the left-hand side, MIUI 6 on the right.)
