Xiaomi will hold an event for new smartphone models in the coming days. Here, the 12S Ultra will be introduced, which uses the world’s largest camera sensor (1 inch). We can even see a device called 12 Lite, which is expected to come for the middle segment.
On the other hand, there is one detail that attracts attention. This is that Xiaomi will release 10 flagship models in the smartphone market this year. Although this situation has advantages, it also has disadvantages. Here are the details…
Xiaomi released 10 flagship smartphones in 1 year!
When we look at the smartphone models released by Xiaomi in 1 year, we see that it offers 3 flagship classes, 12, 12S and 13 series. Moreover, although some of these devices are the same, they may be released under different names according to the countries.
Of course, if we look at the general, we see that Xiaomi launches more models every year than the previous one. So much so that when we take into account the prices of the devices that vary according to the RAM and storage features, this causes a model for every 10 to 20 dollars, especially in the entry and middle segments.
Xiaomi 12S Pro is in pre-event performance test!
Xiaomi 12S Pro has appeared in Geekbench database with model number 2206122SC. So how did the device perform?
When we first look at the event from the consumer’s point of view, it is actually nice to come across with much more device and price options. But this also brings some problems. For example, when we are going to buy a phone, we come across many brands that are already competing with each other.
But Xiaomi is now competing within itself. For example, when we look at the entry and middle segment models, there are also Redmi and POCO products besides the Xiaomi brand. Therefore, we see 3-4 different devices that fit within the range of 10-20 dollars abroad and 300-400 TL in Turkey.
Even if we somehow know exactly what we want and decide on the device to buy without getting confused, the problem is not solved. Because there is also a possible sale situation after use. For example, when a brand sells 7 models instead of 2 on the flagship side (only this year), this causes the second hand prices of the devices to drop much faster.
Because new models are constantly entering the market. This causes people who will buy phones to turn to them. Although the price of smartphones is constantly increasing due to the increasing inflation and dollar rate in Turkey at the moment, we can directly see that Xiaomi models lose value faster when these factors are constant.
