Xiaomi Qin Ai Feature Phone Launched in China

The feature phones have a strong market share in the smartphone industry in the Indian market. Just by launching the Reliance Jio phone in India, the Reliance Industries Ltd captured strong market share in feature phones and keypad phones segment. So, looking the success story of Reliance Jio, now Xiaomi has also entered into the feature phone category by launching the Qin Ai smart feature phone in the China market.

Xiaomi Qin Ai Feature Phone Price and Availability

Xiaomi Qin AI feature phone is available for purchase in the China market at a price tag of CNY 199 (approximately Rs 2000) from Xiaomi’s crowdfunding platform. It is anticipated that the deliveries of Xiaomi feature phone will start from 15th September.

As of now, it is not confirmed whether Xiaomi would launch the Qin AI feature phone in India or not still there are possibilities that Xiaomi may launch it in the Indian market.

But once Qin AI feature phone gets launched by Xiaomi in India than the Chinese smartphone maker would have to face competition from Jio Phone and Jio Phone 2 alike.

Until and unless the Chinese tech giant wouldn't make the announcement of Qin AI feature phone in India, it is better that we should not make any expectations.
