It is often difficult from our end reporting on a new Xiaomi product launch, especially the smart home or ecological chain products. That is because they are just so cool but are hardly available to buy outside China. Since the company went public on the Hong Kong stock exchange, there have been conscious efforts to ensure a global spread of its products. But while we wait for that to fully materialize we just have to endure seeing the Chinese tech giant release cool gadgets. The mother of all releases is apparently coming, going by a recent disclosure by Xiaomi. The company, in a Weibo post, says it would be releasing a massive 20 products in one fell swoop on Monday, April 1.
When Xiaomi launched the Redmi 7, Note 7 and Note 7 Pro alongside the Redmi AirDots TWS headset and Redmi Automatic Washing machine 1A on March 18, Redmi’s VP Lu Weibing hinted that a conference would be held on April 1 where the firm would roll out its plans for the Mi Fan Festival commencing on April 9. The products that would be unveiled are believed to be gadgets that would be sold during the fan fest. Xiaomi did not list the products but shared a poster containing several gadgets. From the pre-launch poster, we can make out the Mi Walkie-Talkie, Mi Notebook laptop, VR headset, sunglasses, swimming glass, weighing scale, thermometer, helmet and several others. It even has the inscription ROY which confirms that the Mi 9 Roy Wang custom edition will be released as well. Interestingly, the event will be hosted by Xiaomi’s president Wang Yuan.

It should be noted that a large number of the products have been launched already, some over a year back. So, it seems Xiaomi is just going to release them again into the market, perhaps at crazy prices, so that Mi fans can have a bountiful festival. We do hope this isn’t April fool.
