Xiaomi has sold over 25 million devices in India in 3 years


Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi has recently achieved a new milestone in India. The company claims to have reached the milestone of selling over 25 million handsets in India. After the excellent response to the Redmi Note 4, Xiaomi has become the fastest company to reach this mark in India.

Having sold 25 million smartphones so far means Xiaomi has sold 22,000 handsets every day for 3 years and 1 month. This number itself shows how popular the Chinese maker has become in India. The company took to Twitter with a video to show its excitement at reaching the 25 million mark.

Xiaomi reaches 25 million mark

After entering the Indian market in July 2014, Xiaomi has managed to set and break its own records. First, the company sold 1 million units of Mi 3, Redmi 1s, and Redmi Note combined by December 2014. The latest record by Xiaomi was the sale of 1 million Redmi 4 phones in just 30 days of the launch here in India.

As of now, Xiaomi has started a new hash tag #PortrayYourself on their official twitter handle. We strongly anticipate this to be the launch of Xiaomi Mi 5X here in India. Let us have a look at its specifications.

Xiaomi Mi 5X Specifications

Since the Mi 5X was launched in China a month ago, we are sure about the core specifications of the device. However, certain specifications like the processor, RAM, or Internal memory are subjects to change based on the market. Here are the specifications of the Xiaomi Mi 5X.

The Mi 5X sports a 5.5 inch Full HD display and its highlight is its dual rear camera setup with a wide angle and a telephoto lens of 12MP each. A 5MP front facing camera is there for selfies and video calling.

In the hardware department, the Chinese variant comes with a Snapdragon 625 processor, coupled with 4GB RAM and 32/64GB storage options. It supports expandable storage via microSD card up to 128GB.


Running on Android 7.1.1 skinned with MIUI 9, the Mi 5X supports 4G VoLTE and packs a USB Type-C port, 3.5mm earphone jack, Bluetooth, and WiFi for connectivity options.

Image
After making a poor first impression in India since its launch in January, the Samsung Z1 seems to be doing reasonably well. Samsung India Electronics on Tuesday announced that it has sold a 'record' 1 million units of the Tizen-powered smartphone in the country. The company added it managed to achieve this milestone in less than six months since the launch. Samsung Z1 is the company's first smartphone to run on its Tizen operating system. The company has previously used the operating system on its Gear smartwatches, and televisions. Samsung had first unveiled a Tizen-based smartphone in June, the Samsung Z, but never did release it in its launch market in Russia - saying it was indefinitely postponed.

Xiaomi vs Micromax: A tale of two smartphone brands

Image
The smartphone market is one of India’s fastest-growing business sector, and an increasing number of consumer electronics brands want a slice of the action. A number of players, both domestic and foreign, have entered this market in recent years with varying degrees of success. There’s no denying that the arrival of Chinese smartphone makers in particular has had a huge impact on domestic brands like Micromax and Intex. Companies that once dominated in terms of market share are now struggling to retain a foothold in this increasingly crowded space. To get a clear idea of how Chinese manufacturers have impacted the Indian smartphone industry, we have compared the market records of leading players from both nations: Xiaomi from China and Micromax from India.

HTC Desire 826 vs HTC Desire EYE: first look

Image
HTC did what it should have a long time ago, and moved its 4 MP UltraPixel snapper at the front, placing a more orthodox 13 MP camera at the rear of the newly-announced Desire 826 . We just took it for a spin, comparing it with HTC's original idea for a selfie-oriented handset, the Desire Eye, and found quite a few differences. Design The phones sport a largely similar design concept, with matte plastic unibodies that are very comfortable to hold, and rounded corners with a colored separation rim around the sides. The Desire 826 is, naturally, the larger, harder to handle phone, due to the increased screen diagonal, but the difference is not that crummy, since both are pretty big phones anyway, thanks to the embedded BoomSound stereo speakers at the front, requiring that you work them with both hands pretty often. The Desire 826 is notably heavier than the Eye, though. Display With a 5.5" 1080p display, the Desire 826 returns a slightly low...
