The Xiaomi Mi Earphones Basic is the Chinese smartphone maker’s most affordable Mi-branded audio product sold in India. The company debuted this product in March 2018. Now, almost three years later, the firm announces a milestone achieved by these pair of earphones.
Xiaomi India took to social media to announce that it has managed to sell over 6.82 million units of Mi Earphones Basic within 2.5 years. The data for this achievement comes from Xiaomi Data Center.
For those unaware, these earphones only cost ₹399. Hence, it makes sense for the company to sell these many units despite the competition. In fact, the biggest competitor right now is the firm’s own Redmi Earphones that was released in September 2020 with Hi-Res Audio and the exact same price tag.
Anyway, whenever Xiaomi announces a milestone, it means that the company will be soon introducing a new product to replace the older model. We think that’s the case for Mi Earphones Basic as well.
Last week, Xiaomi revealed that it will be launching two new Mi-branded audio products in India on February 22. We expected them to be Mi Portable Bluetooth Speaker (16W) and Mi Neckband Bluetooth Earphones Pro.
But now, we feel that the second product will be a pair of entry-level wired earphones to replace the Mi Earphones Basic. Anyway, the announcement will be happening only next week and hence, we can expect to learn more about them ahead of their release.
