Xiaomi debuted the Mi 11 Ultra at the end of March 2021. It has been over a year but the company is yet to release its successor. Anyway, the firm has confirmed to launch a flagship smartphone sporting a camera system powered by Leica in July. This device is rumored to go official as Xiaomi 12 Ultra.

Ahead of this phone’s launch, the year-old Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra is being offered by China’s JD (Jingdong) at an insanely low price tag. The retailer is providing a whopping 42% discount on the 12GB + 256GB variant.

The Mi 11 Ultra with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage was introduced at ¥6,499 ($975). But now, for a limited time, it can be purchased at only ¥3,799 ($570) in China. The promotion is part of JD’s 618 sale.

It is worth noting that customers cannot buy the phone right away. They have to pre-order it before May 31 to get the offer.

During the 618 sale, the price of the Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra (12GB + 256GB)  will drop to ¥4,099. On top of that, JD Plus members who had pre-ordered the handset will receive a ¥300 discount coupon. Hence, for those customers, the smartphone’s effect price will come down to ¥3,799.

Additionally, while pre-ordering the device, customers can deposit ¥100 yuan to get the original 67W charger. They can even deposit another ¥99 for the original wireless charging stand which costs ¥499.

This is probably the best deal on Xiaomi Mi 11 Ultra so far. The last best deal was offered directly by Xiaomi in late March 2022.
