Xiaomi reportedly sold 350,000 Mi 11 units in just five minutes of the first sale

Xiaomi took the lid off the Mi 11 just before 2021. The Xiaomi Mi 11 debuted as the first smartphone powered by the Snapdragon 888 SoC. The first sale of the Mi 11 commenced on January 1 in China.

And from the looks of things, the first sale was a resounding success. According to reports, Xiaomi managed to sell 350,000 units of the Mi 11 in just five minutes. The total value of sales exceeded CNY 1.5 billion (Roughly Rs 1,677 crores).

To recall, Xiaomi launched the Mi 11 in China with several improvements over its predecessor, while maintaining the same price tag as the Mi 10. It seems like Chinese consumers were convinced by the Mi 11’s value proposition. Xiaomi is yet to set a global release date for the Mi 11.
