Launched in 2016, Pokemon Go has captured the hearts of millions of players worldwide over the last three years thanks to its unique gameplay style and strong global Pokemon fanbase. Unfortunately for certain Xiaomi smartphone users, Niantic's brainchild seems to be banning users based on their choice of phone following their recent 10.3.2 update. The Xiaomi Redmi 5 in particular, seems to be most affected by the suspensions, and the culprit might be the update itself or their Game Booster feature.
