News & Reviews:   Xiaomi Mi 9 SE pre-order

Xiaomi recently updated the Support Policy page on its official website to include a list of devices that it will no longer maintain software updates. This end of support (EOS) list entails a whopping 70 devices, with the most recent smartphone in the list being the Mi 9 and Mi 9 SE.

Furthermore, the products on the list include Xiaomi and Redmi smartphones, with POCO phones to be added in the future when their promised updates have reached its end. Xiaomi said that it will no longer maintain any software or firmware updates - including security updates - for the products included in the list.

"Are you telling me there are more goodies to buy on Shopee?" Why yes, yes we are. In fact, we found more than just the Xiaomi Mi 9 SE, there are other Xiaomi devices as well as some home appliances on promo sale from now until 21 July 2019 in this Shopee Mart promo period.

Don’t be fooled by the device’s name, though. The Redmi X is actually not the real name of the upcoming Snapdragon 855 device and is codenamed Raphael for now. However, we’ll keep the Redmi X name just because for the time being.

The compact Mi 9 SE has been officially made available here in Malaysia from 4 May 2019 coming in at RM1299 for the 6GB RAM + 64GB storage version and RM1499 for the 6GB RAM + 128GB storage variant. Both versions will be available in two colours, Piano Black and Ocean Blue with the Lavender Violet coming in later.

Today Xiaomi launched not one, but two devices being the Xiaomi Mi 9 as well as the lower spec Xiaomi Mi 9 SE starting from the price of RMB2999(~RM1814) and RMB1999(~RM1209) respectively.
