Xiaomi "killed" it with the new flagship Xiaomi Mi 9. The latest Snapdragon 855, a brand new triple camera competing with the top, or the fastest wireless charging. All this offers for half the price, what the competition. No wonder there is and will be a huge demand for this smartphone.
Lightning first sale
Today, on February 26, Xiaomi held the very first sale of its new flagship in its home country of China. With the Chinese price starting just at the 400 mark € / 10 CZK, it is a real blockbuster.
This is also proved by the fact that all available pieces of Mi 9 sold out within 53 seconds. Unfortunately, the manufacturer did not specify how many pieces were available. However, this number will definitely be 5 digits.
Huge success in Europe as well
Not only the Chinese are excited about Xiaomi Mi 9. It is also a great success in Europe. Right after publication of official European awards, the manufacturer launched pre-orders in Spain and Italy. No wonder at the European price of 449 € caused Xiaomi a huge stir.
