Yes we have to start somewhere. first the Software, then the hardware, then the services. Indian brands like Micromax and Intex are trying to revive with Snapdragon chipsets. We have to support them to make them global like we did to Xiaomi and Oppo.
India was just too reliant on China.
Anonymous, 30 Jun 2020Banning apps but not the devices? Makes sense to everyone in IndiaIndia only has 4 OR 5 Companies which are not owned by china.
1) Samsung
2) Apple
3) HTC (dead or inactive from a longtime)
4) Nokia (dead or inactive from a longtime)
5) LG (Active But Not that widely used by indians, dont even remember that when was the last time i had seen anyone An LG Smartphone in front of me, so very less LG mobile users, their other products are great)
So basically, India only has 2 Smartphone companies active currectly.
Samsung mostly do not comes with snapdragon or if it has snapdragon then they are too costly
Apple cost too much for their phones, they only have 1 midrange smartphone but even that cost somewhere around 2020 Andriod flagship killer phones xD
Practically at this stage its not possible to ban chinese Smartphones.
and in the initial state of Boy-cutt China, banning their apps and making minimum use of any chinese products is a good start and gradually, as the time passes chinese products can get banned as India and not only india but all other countries get self independant or alteast find alternatives.
And i hope now it make sense for you :)
Anonymous, 30 Jun 2020People keep forgetting that Facebook is litterly listening whenever you are in their applicati... moreGoogle and Facebook provide better features in terms of taking my data. And there's an opt out which cuts down marginal tracking. Google provided features like unlimited cloud storage for photos, and Facebook has great advertising support where small scale or big scale businesses can grow by showing ads to particular people. Where these Chinese apps provide no useful benefits, and are absolutely trash! Take for example miui apps, you cannot even diable em, they keep on enabling themselves which is shady, keeps on sending info without my consent. Atleast let me know why !? No privacy policy, even if I opt out, it'll again reset. Tiktok was uses sim based geolocation to map out Indian streets. And to collect activities over borders and ports .

Indian TikTok is banned? Their popularity in TikTok in general is skyrocketing and there was a 16 year old popular TikToker with two million subscribers from India who just committed not alive on herself.

aza, 30 Jun 2020without American technology, you will not have any tech... starting with the computers to the ... moreso you're saying that none of the US company or apps, even the Google does not track users!!
And don't share users privacy with US Govt. ???
are you from this planet!
maybe gsmarena is accessable from mars recently.
Forgive me beforehand I know there is currently a conflict between China and India but if we are honest most Indian cannot afford expensive products from non-Chinese brands and until now only Chinese products can make the majority population of India able to enjoy high-tech products.
Ban all things which comes from communist regimes. At the same time please ban all globalist corporates like amazon, google, fakebook,twitter, and other entities who are part of the same pack. For starters stop using windows or apple OS start using linux OS. For alternate OS for phones look up pine phone & librem phones.
tik tok server cut. good riddance
As someone who got weirded out by the invasive behaviour of these apps (looking at you Meitu), glad India has the common sense to ban these apps.
Hope the ban stays

cant they just do something to block all the outgoing data to the servers? then if the apps work those can still be used. if they stop.. well so be it.
