Xiaomi is now the number two smartphone vendor for Q2 2021 according to market research firm Canalys. According to the report, Xiaomi ranked second for the first time ever with a 17% market share and annual growth of 83%. Canalys also reported that the worldwide smartphone shipments grew 12% in Q2 2021 as vaccines rolled out around the world, and the new normal for economies and citizens started to take shape. “Xiaomi is growing its overseas business rapidly,” said Canalys Research Manager Ben Stanton. So a major priority for Xiaomi this year is to grow sales of its high-end devices, such as the Mi 11 Ultra. But it will be a tough battle, with Oppo and Vivo sharing the same objective, and both willing to spend big on above-the-line marketing to build their brands in a way that Xiaomi is not. All vendors are fighting hard to secure component supply amid global shortages, but Xiaomi already has its sights set on the next prize: displacing Samsung to become the world’s largest vendor.” source: Canalys Following the availability of the Redmi few days ago, Lazada is now offering the flagship Xiaomi Mi3 for under Php15K.
