Sales of the Xiaomi Mi 5 they officially opened in China only two days ago and, considering that the day before the pre-orders were started which have accumulated a surprising number of registrations | The Xiaomi Mi 5 records more than 16 millions of preordains in China |, it is normal to think that all the stocks of the device that the company had in stock are finished within a few minutes. However, this has created not a few discontent in users who, given that the mass production of the device has already started from the first days of January, at least expected a greater number of units available for the first day of sale.
However, according to the Taiwan Economic Daily, this does not correspond to reality because, even if Xiaomi has not released any statement on the actual amount of devices available and on how many units it managed to liquidate in those few minutes, the company had prepared for its first day of sales a batch of Xiaomi Mi 5 equal to approx 4 million of unity. Reaffirming that Xiaomi has not released any official statement, it is thought that part of this first batch of devices has not been made available for sales.
This may mean that not even Xiaomi expected such a number of preorders for the variant only "basis"And for this reason he asked his supplier companies, namely Foxconn and Inventec, of increase the production so as to be able to satisfy the huge demand of users. Doing a quick calculation, if we consider that the number of pre-orders for this variant is around 16 million, it can be assumed that at this rate the company will be able to liquidate all these pre-orders within the month of April e May.
For this we will have to wait longer than expected to ensure that all users who have requested it receive a unit and those who have not done so will have to wait even longer. This means that all international users who will rely on third-party retailers to buy this device may not wait poco time before you can get your hands on the new Xiaomi flagship. However, anyone who has already purchased (on day one) this variant of the Xiaomi Mi 5 from a third-party retailer, assure that they will be shipped for the middle of this month, maximum by the end of the same.
And you bought one? Or are you waiting for the availability of the other colors / variants?
