You kind of proved GP's point by misspelling both names.
They are Xiaomi and Huawei.
The fact that you misspelled them isn't surprising, as both have "foreign" spellings compared with the Japanese brands like Toyota, Honda, Nissan.
X is rarely used in English, and they have paired and less common vowel pairs.
Both are also not pronounced phonetically, which is also true of the the Japanese brands but the approximation is arguably closer for them.
Certainly for some of the brands
sounding like Amazon 3rd-party re-resellers is a big mark against them.
