Xiaomi flash sale as always brought more frustration than smiles on customer’s faces. It occurred again with the sale of their super-budget Android smartphone, the Redmi 1S on 2nd September.
Xiaomi placed a whopping 40,000 Redmi 1S units on the counter, for a sweet price of Rs 5,999 each. To impress the Xiaomi fans, Xiaomi also threw in a complimentary micro SIM to mini SIM card tray (convertor) and a scratch guard for the display.
Xiaomi’s global vice president Hugo Barra claimed that a total of 40,000 units were sold within 4.2 seconds today in a tweet, However, there are two points to be noted. Out of the 40,000 Xiaomi Redmi 1S units that was available in the first flash sale- 2000 was available to Flipkart First subscribers on September 1 while the remaining 38,000 units was up for sale on September 2.
The Redmi 1S is a great value-for-money smartphone. With a quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor, a 4.7-inch HD IPS display and an above-average 8MP camera, the Redmi 1S is a well-priced budget handset selling for a mere Rs 5,999. The Xiaomi smartphones and tablets runs on MIUI operating system (MIUI V5), which is based on a custom Android KitKat firmware, designed by the Xiaomi team themselves.
The Redmi 1S flash sale will again take place on 9th September exclusively via Flipkart. The registrations for the sale have already been started and will end on midnight, 8th September. Xiaomi is expected to place another 40,000 Redmi 1S handsets for the upcoming sale.
If you really want to obtain Xiaomi smartphones, it seems the only way to do so is to stop all your activities on that blessed Tuesday. Hook up with the high speed Internet connection through your laptop or desktop only. Log-in two hours before on the Flipkart website. And click on ‘buy’ the moment the timer is out. And of course stay calm and keep praying!
