A defective product can happen to every company, even the most serious and performing, but this story has partly incredible and for this reason we do not take a position. Apparently such a Mr. Zhang has officially filed suit against the Yi Technologies company, at the Haidian court that accepted the case and then instituted an investigation.
Mr. Zhang states that his son has made a graduation trip to the Great Wall and the Imperial Palace, where he would have immortalized an endless series of photographs. The camera to which to entrust the task was the famous mirrorless entry level Yi M1, which many reviewers have praised by virtue of the quality / price ratio considering that the machine remains an entry level in the mirrorless segment.
The mirrorless Yi M1 gets the company in trouble
The appellant Mr. Zhang says, however, that with regret the photos, about 4000, have all been lost as if the memory card had been formatted. Mr. Zhang and his wife were present at the son's journey, and the fact that he no longer had a memory of the event sent him on all the fury, asking for compensation for travel expenses, lodging expenses, trip and moral damages for a value of 13716 yuan (about 1722 euro) as well as an apology from the company Yi Technologies.
The sudden loss of photos on the Yi M1 may have been caused by a malfunction (although this is the first case so far in the media) but honestly it may have been accidentally caused by the user himself, or why not simply the whole thing it could be a hoax to tarnish the company name. The fact is that currently the Yi M1 has been sent to service because always according to Mr. Zhang there are also problems with the operation of WiFi and video capture. Currently investigations are still ongoing, but have you ever had any misadventures with Xiaomi products and related?
