Sorry guys poor internet: Live from the Xiaomi Launch Event Beijing!


Xiaomi Mi3 updates:

Just 1 hour to go before the start of the 2013 Xiaomi launch event here in Beijing. We have our seats and will be updating as often as we can!

The event hasn’t started yet, but the excitement is amazing. Xiaomi fans from all over China and the world have flocked the Beijing to see the launch of Xiaomi’s exciting 2013 line up!

Really terrible WIFI, and 3G had let us down at the Xiaomi launch today so we were unable to live post as we had hoped. The situation got so bad that some members of the press left before the event even finished (meaning they missed out on the Xiaomi TV and awesome free gifts!).

I am working on a full post now and will add it soon.

Sorry again Andi!

      Yes, wifi, and 3G are terrible! Add that to the fact we need to connect to our VPN and its really caused problems. Some media left even before the event finished due to it

    Thanks very much for your efforts Andi, hopefully if you go to Xiaomi launching event next year (assuming they have one), the ability to update or even live stream will be much better.

    If the Xiaomi Mi3 isn’t available until October, then it would be good to compare with the Nexus 5.
