Xiaomi has shipped 11 million Redmi 2A units so far
Xiaomi Officially released the Redmi 2A
Smartphone on March 31st this year (2015), which is powered by a LCI LC1860C
Quad-Core Processor, with the base model priced at 499 Yuan (Around $80 USD),
which has 1-GB of RAM and 8-GB Internal Storage.
With the Phone being very affordable and
having very decent specs, it naturally had a very good response in the
budget-smartphone market. Which will naturally make other manufacturers in the
budget-smartphone market very jealous that Xiaomi Ships 11 Million Redmi 2A
Phones
Today, Xiaomi posted on the Chinese
Micro-Blogging site Webio, that they have shipped 11 Million Redmi 2A Units.
Although the Shipments do not translate to
actual final sales to customers, it does mean that the demand for the phone is
very high in the market. Xiaomi also stated that they have no stock left of the
Redmi 2A in their inventory. This could very well be one of the first of
Xiaomi’s phones to break the 10 Million sale mark. Which is a huge milestone
for Xiaomi, considering what the company was just a few years ago. This could
that the company would be planning to launch the product in other parts of the
world as well.
In addition it is very well worth mentioning
that the Xiaomi Redmi 2A is also available in a 2GB RAM model which has 16GB of
Inbuilt Storage, and is available at a very affordable price of 549 Yuan
(Around $90 USD), which is also a very great deal, all things considered. If
you are on a very tight budget, pickup the 1GB RAM model of the Redmi 2A,
however, if you can afford the 2GB RAM model, it would be a better choice.
If you want to pickup the Xiaomi Redmi 2A,
you cab do so from GeekBuying.com for just under $150.
Back in
June, we were told that the Redmi 2 and Redmi 2A (taken together) broke the 13
million sales mark, but this time around we're talking only about the cheaper
of the two. Clearly, the newer Redmi 2A model with 2GB of RAM and 16GB of built-in
storage is included in the 11 million sales number along with the original, but
even so, this is pretty impressive.
The Redmi 2A
is Xiaomi's cheapest phone, going for around $86 in its aforementioned upgraded
iteration. The 1GB/8GB model is even less than that, about $78 in fact. So it's
understandable why it's been doing so well. And who knows, maybe now that it's
passed this milestone Xiaomi will think about launching the Redmi 2A in more
markets.
