Xiaomi’s Redmi Note 8 series phones
Redmi Note 8 Pro and Redmi Note 8, which were announced three months ago, have sold more than 10 million units, the company announced on Monday.
Redmi Note 8 Pro and Redmi Note 8 were announced by Xiaomi at the end of August this year after which they were launched in India in October. Xiaomi also said that it achieved this feat 1 month faster this time compared to the amount of time sales of Redmi Note 7 series took to hit the 10 million units mark.
Xiaomi said in a post on Weibo that the company sold 110,000 units on average every day to achieve this feat.
Notably, the company may also be revealing new details about the Redmi K30 series phones tomorrow, with another line in the Weibo post adding “new Redmi K30, see you tomorrow”.
Xiaomi has already announced the launch of Redmi K30 series, which is expected to include Redmi K30 Pro and Redmi K30, on December 10.
