Xiaomi sells 1 million smartphones in India

In a letter posted on the social networking sites, Xiaomi’s CEO Lei Jun has claimed that the brand has sold 1 million smartphones within 18 days in the country. Jun also said that India is an extremely important market in Xiaomi’s globalization strategy. “It has become our largest market outside of mainland China. In the past two years, we have witnessed several exciting milestones in India. We became the first smartphone brand to participate in Prime Minister Modi’s ‘Make in India’ initiative,” he said.

“When we entered India, there was extremely fierce competition. We have achieved such extraordinary growth in India firstly because of our vision to bring innovation to everyone with our high-quality products at incredible prices.”

“Secondly, we have an amazing team in India. We will continue investing in India to deliver the best products to our Mi fans — expanding our supply, ensuring the high quality of our products, and further improving our after-sales service. The core of the Xiaomi model is creating high-quality products, making friends with our users, and operating our business extremely efficiently. This model has been proven in China. I believe that the Xiaomi model will resonate across the world, starting with India. I am confident that with the sustained efforts of our entire Xiaomi family, we will be able to capture the largest market share in India within 3-5 years! Mi India, let’s make history together!” he added.
