There is nothing new to say about Xiaomi's popularity in India. The company offers smartphones with impressive specifications at cheap price and hence it's not surprising to see more takers of its products in emerging and price-sensitive markets. The centre of attraction for Xiaomi fans at the moment is the recently unveiled Mi 6.
The Xiaomi Mi 6 is set to hit the stores on April 28 in select regions but it may take some time to expand to some countries, including India. Now, it's been reported that the device will be launched in India only by the end of May. Mi fans in the country could be left disappointed by the late launch as they have been waiting eagerly for its release.
