In the domestic smartphone market of 2024, an undercurrent of rivalry is unfolding as major Chinese brands launch their latest offerings in an attempt to match the iPhone experience. Xiaomi 15, OPPO Find X8, vivo X200 Pro mini, and Huawei Mate70 series are all, to varying degrees, replicating the iPhone’s user experience.
Xiaomi 15 has adopted a strategy of comprehensive benchmarking against Apple, from design to user experience. It not only supports rapid file transfer and screen mirroring with Mac devices but also ensures compatibility with iPhone’s Live Photo files. More significantly, Xiaomi has bridged the gap between the Mi Home ecosystem and Apple’s Home ecosystem through the official integration with Apple Home Assistant.
OPPO Find X8 is also making strides to align with Apple. It pays homage to iPhone’s ID design and introduces the O+ Connect, facilitating a cross-ecosystem transfer experience. In addition, Find X8 fully supports iPhone’s Live Photo and has launched a magnetic ecosystem compatible with Apple’s.
vivo X200 Pro mini directly competes with the iPhone 16 Pro, offering a lighter body and a larger battery. vivo has been relatively early and effective in cross-Apple ecosystem collaboration, supporting the viewing of Apple-specific file formats, iPhone’s Live Photos, and tailor-making a cross-platform office solution for Mac.
The Huawei Mate70 series, however, has chosen a distinct path. Equipped with HarmonyOS NEXT, it subtly embraces an iOS-like approach in system design and user experience. Although it doesn’t actively seek compatibility with the Apple ecosystem, HarmonyOS NEXT has incorporated the merits of iOS in terms of fluidity, consistency, and ecosystem experience.
This behind-the-scenes battle to “replace the iPhone” actually provides users with more and better choices. The Android camp is breaking down ecosystem barriers by embracing Apple’s unique features and optimizing file transfer experiences. While this poses a challenge to Apple, for iPhone users, it signifies more choices and possibilities.
