Xiaomi has sold over 13 million Redmi 2 and Redmi 2A smartphones in 5 months
Over the last few months, we’ve reported on the various launches of Xiaomi’s smartphones, but just how well have the handsets fared in terms of units sold? Pretty well, it would seem. Lei Jun, Xiaomi’s CEO, has shared some impressive sales figures on his Weibo account.According to the CEO, the Redmi 2 and Redmi 2A handsets accounted for over 13 million sales in a period of around 5 months. The success is put down to aggressive pricing and competitive specs of the devices, with the Redmi 2A having recently been discounted to just $80 in Xiaomi’s home territory, China.
Xiaomi sold 61 million smartphones in 2014 while the company hopes to reach the 80-100 million mark by the end of 2015. Xiaomi has achieved this level of success despite its handsets only being available to purchase in a limited number of countries, mostly in Asia.
