In China, they have “Singles Day” and similar to Black Friday, Singles Day is thought of as one of the biggest (if not the biggest) sales days on the Calendar. As such, a great opportunity to add some big numbers to the company takings. Well, when it comes to Singles Day, Xiaomi seem to know what they are doing and reported some rather impressive sales last year. A feat that they now looked to have repeated this year. Of course, Xiaomi made sure this year, they were hitting the ground running as the company did announce discounts on certain products over the days leading up to the big day. Not to mention, they had some new additions like the Mi Band 1S which is said to have gone on sale today in China.
When the big Singles Day sales went live at midnight, Xiaomi sold $16 million worth of product in the first twelve minutes. By the time the sun was coming up, Xiaomi was already closing in on $100 million, and sales continued throughout the day's festivities. By closing time, the company netted $188 million. Keeping in mind, that this is the total for a single day's trading.
At the same time, Xiaomi new products will be released Singles Day, The teaser image also has a caption, confirming November 11 to be the date new Xiaomi handsets will grace the world: "This time we play the big! (sic) New phone finale debut at 0:00 on November 11 onwards," reads the description.
The Mi 5 is rumored to a be a powerhouse of a smartphone when it launches. Rumors claim the handset could launch with a 5.2-inch QHD display with 1440 x 2560 pixel resolution and a possible 3000 mAh battery life. When it comes down to the camera, the handset may have a decent 16-megapixel shooter attached at the rear, complete with optical image stabilization (OIS). To round things off, the Xiaomi Mi 5 will reportedly come with 4GB of RAM and up to 64GB of internal storage.
The Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Pro is the less powerful of the two devices. It is rumored to have a metal body along with a fingerprint scanner for security purposes, similar to the iPhone. A 2GHz octa-core processor and a 5.5-inch display make for a smartphone that could rival most.
On the matter of the camera, the device reportedly comes with a 13-megapixel rear shooter and a 5-megapixel camera at the front for taking selfies and making video calls via various apps. There's also the addition of 2GB of RAM, which is quite small when compared to the Xiaomi Mi Note Pro.
Both the Xiaomi Mi 5 and Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Pro are powerful handsets based on rumored specifications. With the purported launch just around the corner, we should learn more soon enough.
