One of the most momentum manufacturers on Android is China's Xiaomi.According to a recent survey, the momentum is to overtake Samsung and become the top in China.Xiaomi's annual growth rate is 240%, leaving an amazing number.
Xiaomi has developed not only the terminal, but also a custom ROM "Miui" based on Android, and is installed on its own terminal.
The latest version was V6, and it was announced at the same time as the latest terminal "MI4".Xiaomi is popular because it offers high -performance terminals at an affordable price, but we will report on usability because it should be in this Miui.The evaluated Miui version is 4.8.1 is called V5.Bass Android 4.2.There is a part that makes you feel 2 remains, but I will introduce mainly the part of its own implementation.
Miui has its own home screen application.The Android standard home screen is not difficult to use, but it is difficult to understand the relationship between the drawer and the home screen, so many people will be confused.The Miui home screen is made like an iOS home screen without a drawer.Recent trends have been held down, such as groupization and uninstalling by pressing and holding app icons, and is unevenly deficited.In addition, although it is not new, there is also a device that Wi-Fi and Bluetooth can be turned on / off in the notification area.
Miui has many setting items.All of them are easy to use and are implemented without excess and shortage.
For example, like "Do not Disturb (good night mode)", it has a function that should be because the mobile phone is a product that is closely related to life.In addition, the "function to lock the screen a few seconds after turning off the screen" is a convenient function because it can be used immediately without locking immediately after the screen off.In terms of security, there is also a function to authenticate passwords for application execution.You can use it with confidence if you set an application that handles personal information.
The cloud service operated by Xiaomi is integrated into the system.I think it's easiest to explain it as an iCloud (the same is the same as 5GB of storage).Functionally, it can be synchronized with cloud services such as contact information, SMS, and transmission history.It seems to be a good idea to back up.
There is also an application called "Security", which has a function to delete unnecessary files, a function that allows you to check / set permissions for each app.There are all similar apps, but you need to install them, so it's a nice consideration to buy and use them right away.
Settingsアプリの「Language & input」には、「Japanese」がなかったので、「English」を選択して使っています。日本語入力は、Miui Marketで公開されている『Simeji』を使います。フォントは、中華フォントですが、Androidがベースになっているので表示／入力ともに問題ありません。
From a mean perspective, Miui V5 is a difference between Android.It is built with a unique world view, but there is a part where you can feel the iOS complex.Nevertheless, it is not halfway, and the world view is thorough in every corner of the application, and the operation is easy to understand without a tingling.
In addition, there are many functions, but there is no such thing as an inflated, it is easy to use, and it is just nice.I am envious of the Chinese users who can get such a well -organized Android device, and at the same time, overtaking Samsung and being convinced that Xiaomi will be the top.I want the latest terminal.
