If someone is mulling an upgrade to an Android smartphone, chances are they will prefer Xiaomi phones over other brands. It is not a claim we are making, but research firm Strategy Analytics which in its latest report notes that the China-based manufacturer is the most preferred smartphone brand for Indian Android owners looking to upgrade in 2017.

I agree. I shifted from Motorola (2 devices) to Mi.
Maybe I will go with Mi again after 2 years if they keep on doing what they are doing now.

I've been a fan of xiaomi since buying my first one (redmi note 4g) in January 2015. Since then I've bought 3 more. In addition to the hardware, I also like their rom support.

Yes, I recently switched to resurrection remix nougat on the oldest one because they've stopped giving updates to it. Don't blame them for it though, I mean, come on! Its a December 2014 model, atleast they're still giving tweak updates for it, who does even that for a 2 year old model!!
