The launch of Chinese smartphone vendor Xiaomi’s first smartphones in India will happen too soon . Xiaomi will launch its first two smartphones in India sometime between mid-July and early-August, multiple sources have confirmed.
Rather than setting up its own online retail store, Xiaomi has tied up with Flipkart, which will exclusively sell Xiaomi’s products in India. Xiaomi India will import the devices and use Flipkart for retailing them.I personally like flipkart.Its most truted online shopping plateform in india and i am happy that we will be able to use cash on delivery for xiaomi handsets because many indians are still conservative about using bank account for shopping.
Xiaomi will first launch the Redmi and Mi3 in India. The Redmi is its entry-level smartphone with a 4.7-inch 720p IPS display, a MediaTek 6589 quad-core processor clocked at 1.5GHz, 1GB of RAM and 4GB of internal storage along with a microSD card slot(I hope its wrong and its redmi 1s with Qualcomm MSM8228 Snapdragon 400 chipset which is significantly faster than used in moto g and will set motorola on fire!!!!). It comes with an 8-megapixel rear and 1.3-megapixel front-facing cameras. The Redmi runs on Android 4.2 Jelly Bean with Xiaomi’s MIUI V5 on top.
The Mi3 is Xiaomi’s flagship smartphone with a 5-inch 1080p IPS display, a 2.3GHz Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM and 16GB of internal memory. It comes with 13-megapixel rear camera with dual-flash and a 2-megapixel front-facing camera, both capable of shooting 1080p videos. The Mi3 also features dual-band Wi-Fi, Bluetooth 4.0, NFC and Wi-Fi Direct. It has a massive 3,050mAh battery as well.
The Redmi is priced around Rs 8,000 in Singapore while the Mi3 costs around Rs 15,000. We expect Xiaomi to launch these two phones in India at similar price points Apart from the two smartphones, Xiaomi is also expected to launch its range of accessories including its 10,400mAh battery power bank!!!!.
Xiaomi’s pricing strategy seems to be very aggressive but it remains to be seen how it would be able to keep up with huge demand in india. Xiaomi is most likely to launch with limited stocks and there will be a waiting period before stocks get replenished. But this strategy has worked for the company in other markets where people wait for the next shipment to arrive, which gets sold out within minutes. Xiaomi had managed to sell 100,000 units of the Mi3 in China in less than 90 seconds!Astonishing!!!!!!!!!I hope motorola noting that.
