According to Xiaomi’s CEO (Lei Jun), the amount of sold phones is 70% more than it was in the previous three-month period and this is all credited to the impressive R&D (Research & Development) investments of the Chinese company during the past 2 years. Xiaomi did great in India as well according to the results, with the company having an explosive growth of 328% in the country, with the Redmi Note 4 being theĀ highest shipped smartphoneĀ in the country, andĀ the company even opened its first Mi Home in BengaluruĀ two months ago.

Lei Jun is confident that the rough 2016 is a thing of the past, and only good things are in stored for the Chinese company in the coming months. Note that Xiaomi aims really high for 2017, planning toĀ reach revenue of CNY100 billion (about $14.7 billion) by the end of the year and sets a target of 100 million shipments in 2018!
