The far-sightedness of the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi showed up again on yesterday's day when He has officially entered the African market with his smartphones. Perhaps not everyone knows that Africa is seen by the hight tech giants as a kind of gold mine. It is the poorest continent in the world, where technology is only beginning to break. For this reason, it is an unrivaled growth opportunity for various Google, Facebook, Samsung and even yesterday for Xiaomi.
We see Africa as well the new frontier for growth of the smartphone market and we are excited to collaborate with MIA Group for to offer consumers Of these countries our devices high quality at incredible prices", He comments Raymond Tian, Xiaomi Global Strategy Director
The first smartphones to land on the African market are the Xiaomi Redmi 2 sold at 160 Dollars and the Xiaomi Mi4 sold at exactly the double, or 320 dollars.
In order to have a very effective distribution, Xiaomi has partnered with the group Mobile In Africa Group (MIA), which already has a capillary network in 14 African countries.
Probably in the near future there will be more and more smartphones coming to Africa. Remember, however, that unlike Brazil, Xiaomi has not opened any new factory in Africa, so smartphones are imported directly from China.
At this point we believe that Europe, for our misfortune, will be the last continent in which Xiaomi will land with its products in an official manner.
