Xiaomi fined for mis-declaring sales figures

So it was a publicity stunt by Lazada and Xiaomi? I had friends who we’re ordering that day but at about 3mins past noon, all units were sold out…

so meaning lazada denied the out of stock issues? I just don’t get it, denied the availability of the units kahit marami paring gustong bumili? and by the huawei smartphones here in philippines is selling just like as the status of SKK

let’s face it, the mi3 was never really a hit with the Filipinos, because of being a single SIM phone, every body has at least 2 Sims. they made it appear to sell out quickly so as to create a hype of being a hard to get phone, thus highly sought after. but the hype didn’t work for the Filipinos, tough luck for xiaomi!!!

last week, i ordered for a xiaomi mi3 phone over at lazada. gusto ko lang kasi ng secondary phone. it was delivered to me 3 days after i made the order (i live here in Baguio). okay naman yung phone, i’m really impressed and satisfied. now i am ditching my samsung duos phone for the mi3. the screen reso is really impressive and the battery is excellent. mabilis ang internet at maganda ung quality ng mga pictures. madali lang din magtext. so far, ala pa naman ako reklamo sa phone na eto. sana lang eh di ako magkaproblema. pero overall eh, masasabi ko na maganda talaga yung design and specs ng mi3.

Kung makahusga naman mga tao dito, basta makapag sabi lang ng negative tungkol sa isang bagay/company tumwang-tuwa na. Kung may marketing stunt man sila, mas malala pa ang stunts ng iba. Na-feel nyo ba na umangat ng isang level pagkatao nyo? Haha! Yung mga nakabili ang uto-uto? Boplaks, KAYO ang uto-uto na naniniwala basta-basta sa trigger lines ng site na to. Kaya bumubuhos ang traffic at kumukita ang mga tech sites na ganito (na walang ginawa kundi gumawa ng chismis may mapag usapan lang) ay dahil sa mga tulad nyo. And you don’t even realize it. ;)Pasalamat si site sa inyo.

Xiaomi is the only smartphone company that sells their phones almost the same price in any countries. Samsung, LG, HTC, Apple and others sell their phones 10-30% higher here in the philippines because of one simple reason “you do not live in america”. that business model is a good thing aside for the fact that their smartphone specs is unrivaled compared with similar priced rivals. But it is not right to advertise 10,000 phones if you only have 9492 phones. They should have declared 9,500 phones. Even if the difference is only 6% a company should be closer to the truth. I lost trust with other companies because they advertise that their phone is fast but its not, quality is good but its really a piece of crap, worst of all using the same naming brand but with only one letter difference (iphone 5s-5c, htc m8-e8, xperia z-e, galaxy s-y, blackberry z10-q10 lumia 820-620) thinking you’ve got the same quality phones with small price and quality difference only to find out that there is small price difference but there is a big quality difference. People who lost trust will never comeback even if the company decided to change their greediness. Hopefully they will not exaggerate their sales next time. Let others like asus exaggerate their sales and quality because they use crappy atom processors.

This news is almost 3weeks old. http://thenextweb.com/asia/2014/07/31/taiwan-slaps-20000-fine-xiaomi-declaring-number-devices-flash-sales/
The statement of a huawie folk during lunch chitchat was true. I am expecting yuga to ask folks over at xiaomi the real deal about the lazada rumor. Obvously, it was a publicity stunt which is their way of marketing ht eproduct to increase the hype on mi3. I have no problem with the mi3, it was impressive. And hwawei, i think they want xiaomi to be fined here as well.

Bottom line is… I’m very much satisfied with my MI3 and that’s what counts. I got a flagship-specced phone at almost 1/3 of the price of leading brands. In terms of marketing, it may be deceiving pero ang mahalaga, their phone really delivers the goods ;)

wish paranoia and snobby attitude ng mga nagpapaka patriot daw na di ata alam na karamihan sa mga phone nila eh made in china din.

para di ako mahirapan at maubusan pag na release yung iba pang gadgets ng xiaomi.

:D

sorry huawei pinalitan ka na xiaomi sa globe at smart postpaid plans lol…

he only thing that’s making this mi3 not sell like hot cakes is the measly 16gb rom XD and no expansion slot nuff said and release the kernel source code people like aosp better than muiu :))
