Xiaomi phones no longer pre-install Google GMS in the Chinese market

Due to the US ban, Huawei announced last year that it would no longer support GMS (Google Mobile Services). Following Huawei, Xiaomi also stopped pre-installing Google GMS on phones sold in the Chinese market. Recently, some Xiaomi users have reported to Xiaomi that they are unable to install GMS on their phones.

In response, Xiaomi service staff responded that due to compliance with the policy, Xiaomi MIUI no longer supports the self-installation of GMS. However, some users said that some models with built-in GMS will not be affected. Currently, the affected models include the Redmi K30 Extreme Commemorative Edition and Redmi 10X 5G. However, not all models are affected, and Xiaomi has not provided a list of specific models.

GMS

As an important part of the Android ecosystem, failure to install Google GMS may cause some problems for some mobile phone users, but the impact is not significant. In fact, because Google services are unavailable in mainland China, mobile phones sold by Chinese mobile phone manufacturers no longer have Google GMS pre-installed.

For Xiaomi users, MIUI no longer supports GMS services, and many users said that GMS is not important to them. Xiaomi service staff stated that users can visit coolapk.com to search for installation tutorials for users who are indeed affected.
