This is the home screen. The icons are rounded squares, just like the app icons on the iPhone.

Even app folders look similar to the folders on the iPhone.

This is the contacts list in MiUI.

And this is what an individual contact's profile looks like.

The alarm clock app looks a lot like Apple's too.

Here's the countdown timer app.

The photo gallery looks pretty nice.

The music player is pretty sleek.

Here's a look at the music player widget that lets you control tunes from your home screen.

The music player also displays song lyrics.

The video player's controls are very modern looking.

The compass app looks a lot better than Apple's.

The voice recorder app mimics an old-school tape player.

By the way, Xiaomi has its own streaming video TV box that's similar to the Apple TV. It lets you beam content from your smartphone to your TV, just like Apple's AirPlay.
