One of the most controversial points we have been asking ourselves about in recent times is the Xiaomi Mi 10 price. The only prices that we have been able to see with our own eyes, although unofficial, are in a bit higher than normal. Precisely because they are not official, they should not be taken as definitive ... but despite all, many complain. Obviously, the smartphone will not reach 1000 €, however it is clear that it will cost a bit more. But there is a reason and Lei Jun, via a comment on Weibo, he expressed it very sincerely. The problem is that it has done nothing but add gasoline on the fire.
Lei Jun says his about the price of Xiaomi Mi 10 and you will not like it ...
In a recent post on the well-known Chinese social network Weibo, a user asks in a nice way what will be the price of the device which, according to what we know so far, has a hardware configuration to make any smartphone pale currently in circulation. If then we put the score he reached in thelatest benchmark...
We read in the post the user:
"I can't afford to buy it: ufs 3.0 = the price goes up, LPDDR5 = the price goes up, 108 megapixels = the price goes up, Snapdragon 865 = the price goes up, Samsung panel with 90Hz refresh rate = the price goes up"
The brand's CEO replied exhaustively saying:
"This time, when designing Xiaomi Mi 10, I asked for the price constraint to be lifted and for us to focus on the product!"
To get an idea, the last one Xiaomi Mi Note 10 has been put on sale at the price of 549 € (list price). A rather high cost if you consider that in addition to its spectacular 108 megapixel camera, the rest of the specifications are those of a mid-range terminal. Now if we consider the Xiaomi Mi 10 price, we can say that without a doubt will be higher than € 549 (always list price, without considering coupons and discounts of various kinds) since it will still integrate a processor Qualcomm Snapdragon 865, which has a higher cost, one wireless charging and even the new kind of RAM LPDDR5.
We are convinced that the new terminal however it will not exceed € 600 in the price list, and even if it did poco, it would still be worth it. To those who criticize this situation by saying that with that figure it is better to buy an Apple smartphone, let's say they are making a comparison poco appropriate because for that amount, Apple does not sell anything. If it is true that the quality of the Xiaomi Mi 10 will be superior, it is right that you pay more (within the limits, of course), even more so if in the end prices will still be below the average in this range of smartphones. It cannot be expected to cost less than or equal to lower-end devices.
Having said that, I hope that no one will feel attacked by my statements.
It's normal the more things they put in, the more it costs… Always less than the others anyway
Precisely. The fact is that recently some have been complaining because of others who have hypothesized a price close to 1000 €, causing panic.
