Xiaomi devices will hit African markets soon

Chinese Mobile phone giants Xiaomi now have their eyes on the Africa market. After huge success last year in countries like India and Brazil using Foxconn and Redington respectively, they are now ready to expand their market further to Africa using a Pan-African distributor called Mobile in Africa Limited and also the online sales platform.  Its said their devices will be available for about 50 African countries by September.

This Chinese company already know that its not going to be an easy task for them to break into the Afican market due to heavy competition from already well known Chinese manufacturers like Tecno, Gionee, infinix, lenovo etc. They are prepared to create great devices at competitive prices just like Google who launched the Android One with infinix hot 2 few days ago in Africa with a price tag of just $87. 

Xiaomi made a record breaking sales on the Redmi Note2 this year which came with the new MIUI 7 interface and they are promising to keep that up with other flagship devices. 

This is great news for Africa as another mobile phone giant is entering the market. Hope there will be real competition and massive drop in price so that everyone can get a smart phone..
