News & Reviews:   Xiaomi Global

The launch of the Xiaomi 13T series may be imminent as its high-end variant, the 13T Pro recently received IMDA certification and was spotted on Geekbench. The latter provided some details regarding its specs, including the processor, RAM and OS.

Previously, we reported that the Xiaomi 13 Ultra may be released globally on 8 June. Well, we’re a bit off on that one as the company CEO Lei Jun just announced that the smartphone will be launched for the global market on 12 June.

Yesterday, we reported that Xiaomi will launch the Xiaomi Pad 6 series alongside the Xiaomi 13 Ultra on 18 April. Now, more details of the tablet have been confirmed, including its processor under the hood.

Previously, we reported that Xiaomi will be launching the Xiaomi 13 Ultra this 18 April in China. Now, the company has confirmed that it will also be releasing a new tablet, the Xiaomi Pad 6 during the same event.

Earlier this month, we reported that the Xiaomi 13 Ultra was spotted on TENAA, meaning that it may be launched soon. While we still haven’t gotten the exact release date, the device is now confirmed to be arriving this month.

The China-brand smartphone invasion is upon us as Xiaomi has announced plans that it will be arriving in Malaysia soon. Coming from Hugo Barra, VP of Xiaomi Global in an interview with HardwareZone Singapore, Malaysia will see a Malaysian branch for Xiaomi in the next two months (which would be April 2014). Xiaomi recently came out with the Redmi smartphone in Singapore at S$169 (RM441) with some respectable tech specs which included a 1.5GHz quad-core processor, 4.7-inch IPS display and dual-SIM support. No news yet if this is the exact same smartphone Malaysia will be getting for the initial Xiaomi Malaysia launch but more smartphone brand makers can only mean good things for buyers here in Malaysia. No specific Malaysia release dates were mentioned though, but we're guessing Xiaomi smartphones and devices being available here in or after April 2014.
