Could be Xiaomi, BYD, Huawei, DJI, Tencent, Alibaba, DeepSeek, or anything else.

Curious which companies people think are pushing innovation the hardest lately.

Feels like Xiaomi makes everything at this point - phones, tablets, smart home devices, wearables, even appliances and a lot of it is surprisingly affordable for the features you get.

Do you think any other brand competes better when it comes to overall value?

Could be food, services, public transport, shopping, delivery speed, tech, safety, convenience, anything.

Always interesting seeing what locals consider “normal” that outsiders would probably think is premium or futuristic.

Could be clothing, sneakers, tech, accessories, food, anything.

What’s something where the branding feels way more expensive than the actual product quality/value?
