As the company celebrates its tenth anniversary, Xiaomi Mi 1 customers will receive a full refund
All Mi M1 pre-order customers will receive a refund, according to Xiaomi. The news was announced at the Mi Mix 4 launch event. Xiaomi debuted the Mi 1 in 2011 and has since released some phones in the Mi series as its flagship offering. The Mi 11 series, which includes the top-of-the-line Mi 11 Ultra, is the company’s most recent offering.
Xiaomi has expanded into several markets outside of China over the years. It is the most popular smartphone brand in India and a few other countries. In June 2021, it surpassed Samsung and Apple to become the world’s leading smartphone manufacturers.
To commemorate the 10th anniversary, Xiaomi will refund all Mi 1 pre-order customers. Users must have their Mi ID credentials, which they obtained from Xiaomi’s Mi.com online store when purchasing the Mi 1. Xiaomi is said to have spent around USD 57 million on the gesture.
Early users are like angels to a company/brand. @Xiaomi just announced that all consumers who pre-ordered Xiaomi first product M1 (10 years ago) will get full money back as gratitude for their early trust and support. It cost Xiaomi USD 57 million, but well worth it!
