It's China Smartphone.

 

Yahoo News : China’s Xiaomi confirms it will bring its smartphones to Singapore this year

 

Today Xiaomi, the Chinese smartphone maker known for selling top-notch handsets at bargain bin prices, revealed via social media that it’s next stop beyond the Greater China will indeed be Singapore.

 

Yesterday Xiaomi’s Hong Kong and Taiwan Facebook pages posted messages featuring the company’s rabbit mascot beside a Chinese dragon proclaiming “Hello Singapore”, linking to a Xiaomi Singapore Facebook page. However, now that Hugo Barra posted

the same picture on his Google+ profile page, the proverbial writing is on the proverbial wall.

 

Curiously, the Singapore Facebook page appears to have been created in May 2013 – three months before Barra got on board. This might indicate that Xiaomi had been eyeing the move for some time.

 

Xiaomi had publicly indicated that its next overseas stop beyond Taiwan and Hong Kong would be Singapore back in December when it held a fan meetup in Taipei.

 

The move to the city-state will test the company’s chops in a market in which consumers have higher incomes on average. It also will be branching out from exclusively Chinese-speaking markets into a multi-lingual market.

 

Just this morning Xiaomi announced that it had sold over 18 million handsets in 2013, more than twice the 7.19 million it doled out the previous year. In 2014, it’s hoping to hit 40 million. As for revenues, the company raked in over $5.18 billion for the year.

 

 

 

Saw it in China last month whilst visiting Hainan Island. Nice and light, only problem is program all in Chinese wording which reframe me from buying.... [grin]

Go Aliexpress.com and see. Can only see a while then will not work when the service providers updates their security access codes in their own legal sets.

 

My coleague bought a couple and now only the 3rd set is working [lipsrsealed] the other 2 got lock-out.

Never heard of it leh...

BIG time in China in terms of market share, Apple no fight I heard. [sweatdrop]

 

I think cheaper to order on line or get friends from China to bring in.
