So said the director of new products Xiaomi Wang Teng Thomas
Xiaomi has announced massive discounts as part of the 6-18 promotion, which takes place annually in China. Along with many other products, the current flagships of the company, Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro, have become cheaper. One of the users, however, could not fail to notice in Weibo that even despite the discounts, the current flagships of Xiaomi are still much more expensive than the previous flagships, and that means that the company must make a good profit on them. Xiaomi’s new product director, Wang Teng Thomas, responded to these words.
Xiaomi Mi 10 is more expensive than other flagships of the company, but it does not bring profit
The manager agreed that the cost increased, but noted that the flagships do not bring profit. Given that Xiaomi is not yet striving to significantly reduce the cost of the Mi 10 and Mi 10 Pro, even within the framework of the 6-18 promotion, this, in general, can be believed. In addition, top managers of the company have repeatedly stated that smartphones with 5G support are in principle more expensive than conventional models, not to mention flagships on the top Snapdragon 865 platform.
