2018-09-17 09:20:45 UTC  

you cant fill it up with manga though

2018-09-17 09:20:51 UTC

2018-09-17 09:21:03 UTC  

but for books you wont find anything better

2018-09-17 09:26:10 UTC  

Pretty sure kobos have sd slots

2018-09-17 09:27:32 UTC  

do kobos run on top of android too in kiosk mode

2018-09-17 09:27:41 UTC  

or do they actualy have their own os under the hood

2018-09-17 09:27:47 UTC  

No idea

2018-09-17 09:28:49 UTC  

not that it matters as i dont want to buy into that monopoly game

2018-09-17 09:29:13 UTC

2018-09-17 09:29:27 UTC

2018-09-17 09:29:45 UTC  

its just principle

2018-09-17 09:29:49 UTC  

iirc they have their own OS

2018-09-17 09:29:55 UTC  

Don't quote me on that

2018-09-17 09:40:44 UTC  

I think kobos run Android and you have to hack them to run anything other than what they come with

2018-09-17 09:40:57 UTC  

I can't remember I know one of them run android

2018-09-17 09:45:53 UTC  

You can boot up Android on a Kobo Glo

2018-09-17 09:46:06 UTC  

Which is also a recommended model for reading chink drawings

2018-09-17 10:04:53 UTC  

Haha

2018-09-17 10:05:04 UTC  

Xiaomi doing XS, XR and XS Max packaging

2018-09-17 10:09:25 UTC  

Wait

2018-09-17 10:09:36 UTC  

So you get a pc, headphones, a phone and a smartwatch

2018-09-17 10:09:42 UTC  

For the same price as an iPhone?

2018-09-17 10:09:47 UTC  

yes

2018-09-17 10:10:02 UTC  

Madmen

2018-09-17 10:10:12 UTC  

$950 + Chinese surveillance 😏

2018-09-17 10:10:16 UTC  

```
So for the price of the least expensive 2018 iPhone, Xiaomi's XR package includes a Mi 8 SE smartphone (in the highest 6GB/128GB trim), a 12.5-inch Mi Notebook Air (8GB/256GB), a Mi Band 3, and a Bluetooth handsfree.

The XS bundle swaps out the Mi 8 SE for a Mi Mix 2S (8GB/256GB version), and includes the larger 13.3-inch Mi notebook Air. The Mi Band 3 and Bluetooth headset are still here.

Now, instead of an iPhone XS Max with base storage, you can have the Mi 8 smartphone (6GB/128GB), the Mi notebook Pro (presumably the more affordable one with an MX150 GPU, it's not specified), the Mi Band 3 (of course), and a pair of neckband-style Bluetooth earbuds.

2018-09-17 10:11:22 UTC
