In the field of thousand- yuan machine, Redmi and Charm Blue used to be the two leading brands. Even last year, Charm Blue took the lead and became the main pillar of Meizu company. It also frequently reported that Charm Blue will be independent, and from the charm The packaging of the blue part of the product can also be seen, the new logo of Charm Blue has been made. But the end result is that Charm Blue is not only independent, but also taken over to the head office and disappears. But Redmi, an old rival, is quietly independent today.

Xiaomi Mobile officially announced that the new release of Redmi will be held on January 10. After Redmi's independent reason, Lei Jun replied on Weibo: "Separate Xiaomi and Redmi, each in different directions, can make the Xiaomi brand better. Redmi focuses on the most cost-effective, mainly in the e-commerce market. Xiaomi focuses on high-end and New retail." In fact, the positioning has not changed, Redmi focused on the volume, Xiaomi focused on shaping the brand.

Moreover, after Xiaomi's efforts began in the year before, Xiaomi's low-priced products and Redmi products frequently coincided with guilt, which is believed to be one of the reasons why Lei Jun is determined to separate the two.

Do you think Redmi will be more fierce after independence, will there be a flagship product with the highest price? Is there a big move?

Media exposure Xiaomi three-stage folding screen new machine to get started video! Netizen: The familiar Xiaomi is back

At the beginning of the new year, Xiaomi’s big move can be said to be one after another. After the original Jin Li’s president Lu Weibing hangs up the brand new independent brand Redmi, today’s overseas news broke the news that a new millet three-stage folding screen machine broke out video!

As we all know, after the smartphone market has experienced a curved screen and a full screen, the next popular trend is likely to be a folding screen. Especially after the popularity of 5G networks, the further rise of video content will inevitably lead to the further expansion of mobile phone screens, and in order not to affect one-handed operation, screen folding now seems to be the best way.

Of course, the folding screen mobile phone is not new. There is already a screen manufacturer in the country, Rouyu, which launched the world's first screen folding mobile phone. However, among the mainstream manufacturers in the world, no one has really shown their own screen folding mobile phone. Today, the overseas video of the new evleaks on Twitter has been the first screen folding phone among the top 5 manufacturers in the world.

According to evleaks's video, the new machine's screen supports three-stage folding. When the screen is fully expanded, the appearance of the new machine is the same as that of the traditional tablet, but the screen ratio is higher. After the screen is folded back, the appearance of the machine is a normal full-screen phone form.

It is worth mentioning that from the operation of the video, the MIUI10 system is equipped with the full screen handheld operation regardless of whether the screen is unfolded or closed. For the 2018 millet's conservatively uncomfortable rice noodles, the series of messages in these two days is a very positive signal. Some netizens commented on the bottom of the video - the familiar Xiaomi is finally coming back.

Xiaomi 9 configuration full exposure, very amazing!
2019-01-05 09:29:20
https://www.toutiao.com/a6642818728423588365/

To talk about Xiaomi 8, the worst thing this year is that it was pressed by Meizu 16 when it was not cut in the early stage. In the end, because there is no screen fingerprint, Xiaomi MIX 3 is also the same, because there is no screen fingerprint, it feels shorter than others. So the desire for a lot of rice noodles on Xiaomi 9 is to go to the screen fingerprint. This screen fingerprint is no matter who it is, as long as you have it. So whether Xiaoma 9 has a screen fingerprint will be a big reason why Xiaomi 9 will be spit.

This is not the foreign media gave the fans broke the news, this news is pointing to Xiaomi 9, about Xiaomi 9 we have seen a lot of reasonable configuration list, such as the 19:9 1080P AMOLED screen, this and the water drop screen can echo After all, the drop screen is a mature Samsung screen. On a 6T, OPPO R17, and vivo X23 phones, Xiaomi 9 is also reasonable. However, this appearance is really backward, and it is also the slot. After all, everyone They are all trying to punch the screen, and Xiaomo is still playing the water drop screen. The most important thing is that if the Xiaomi 9 is unveiled in May, the appearance is even worse. Starting with Xiaomi 6, Xiaomi Digital Flagship has no habit of one year and two more, so it is easy to fall behind in appearance.

However, there is also a happy place, that is, the back of the three-camera design, will be IMX586 for the main camera at home a 12 million pixels and a 3D TOF idea, forming a three-camera phone. Screen fingerprints should be standard this time. After all, OPPO R17 can be used, Xiaomi is no problem, plus a QC4.0 fast charge, no wireless charging is still understandable, after all, there is a higher matching Xiaomi MIX series.

The battery capacity of 3500mAh can only be said to be quite satisfactory. It will not be particularly strong and will not be particularly bad. At least it is better than Xiaomi 8. The price of such Xiaomi 9 is still between 2500-3000 yuan RMB. The price/performance ratio is still very good, but the appearance is indeed behind, which is expected to become one of the slots of Xiaomi 9.

Xiaomi Smartphones are the number 1 in all Ukraine


One of the markets that have more competition at present is the Smartphones one, due to the great sales that it generates annually, so much so that this market has reached its highest point, making it difficult for OEMs to launch “anything” and have success in the process. The Chinese Smartphone market is saturated with all kinds of devices, and at the same time, they have several of the highest annual sales in these markets, which is why new brands are looking for a new territory in which to leave. This is where Europe comes in; however, companies like Xiaomi have dominated this continent as well.

Report about Xiaomi and other Smartphones companies in Europe

Canalys, who subsequently published a report in which they showed their results, carried out an investigation of the market; in this, we can see the market shares of different companies. According to it, Xiaomi has obtained very good results throughout Europe, especially in Ukraine, this because during the fourth quarter of 2018 the Chinese company had a market share of 26.7% achieving the first position in this country for the first time, above companies like Samsung who had a 26.5% share.

Something quite interesting that showed the report on this country is that 4 of the 5 brands at the top are Chinese, accompanied by Huawei (16.2%), Meizu (10.6%) and Honor (7.9%). On the other hand, in the Western European market, Xiaomi smartphones have achieved great results, entering the top 5 and being, in turn, the company with the fastest growth of all of the list, achieving a 415.1% growth rate. So much so, that only in the Spanish market, Xiaomi managed to grow a total of 273.4% and with this has managed to position itself within the top 3 places in this country.

Something that has strongly influenced this growth is that Xiaomi managed to enter effectively countries like France, Italy, and the United Kingdom, among others. All this as part of their global expansion plan that began four years ago, so it is quite impressive the increase it has achieved in such a short time, not to mention, of course, the huge amount of sales it has obtained with this expansion plan.

Xiaomi Mi Note 10 is Expected to Arrive in India Soon

Kuljit singh Nov 25, 2019

A few weeks ago, the Chinese giant Xiaomi launched the 108 MP sensor phone, named Mi CC9 Pro in China. A day after its launch, the company also introduced its global edition in the shape of Mi Note 10 in Spain. Now, the news has arrived that Xiaomi is going to make the Mi Note 10 for the Indian market.

As per the new reports by 91mobiles, Xiaomi could soon introduce the Mi Note 10 on the Indian soil. To recall, the Chinese manufacturer had launched the Xiaomi Mi 5 flagship in India in 2016, which received a lukewarm welcome.

After that, Xiaomi has stayed away from launching a high-end or flagship device in India. However, the company has been introducing Mi Series smartphone devices in India each year based on the Android One platform.

Now, Xiaomi has decided to ram the Indian smartphone market with Mi Note 10. It is expected to rival with the likes of OnePlus 7 and Realme X2 Pro etc. in this price frame.


According to the sources revealed this information, the senior company officials are thinking of the right time to enter the Indian market with this flagship. Previously, the Mi Note 10 was planned to be launched in India alongside the Xiaomi Mi Alpha in December, but the concept was dropped later.

Hence, it is still a mystery when the phone will break its cover in India. Moreover, the Mi Alpha will reach India in limited units. The only dislike about the flagship-grade Mi Note 10 is that it doesn’t adopt the flagship processor chipset. It has the Snapdragon 730G SoC along with the Penta-Camera installation including a 108MP primary sensor on the backside. The smartphone is expected to receive a positive response from the Indian public.
