Xiaomi’s VP, Hugo Barra, took off the lid over the company’s plans to bring their flagship, Mi 5 to India. To a thunderous applause of over 8000 fans at the Talkatora stadium, in Lucknow India, Barra revealed that Xiaomi had already gotten over 16 million registrations for the Mi 5 in China and that next, it plans to bring the flagship phone to Indian users in a month’s time.

Along with this, Hugo Barra also revealed the company’s plans to sell in the country the beautiful looking Mi Bluetooth Speakers for Rs 1999 and Mi Powerbank which can hold a charge of up to 20000mAh.

A few minutes ago, Xiaomi’s Senior VP Wanqiang Li, revealed via his official Weibo page that the company’s Spring Conference was going to be held on Feb 24. So, we can all expect to see the flagship Mi 5 at the event.

However, Mi 5 may not be the only device that could be unveiled that day. According to the leaked presentation images, the company has kept the main event for two hours long. If it was just for Xiaomi Mi 5’s launch, it should have been shorter. So, many are speculating that we might see more than one launch at the Feb 24 event. The leak reveals that the event will go on from 2 pm to 4 pm and later on, the attendees will be given a chance for a hands-on with the launched devices.

We still don’t know what could be the other announcements on Feb 24. However, at this moment, I am sure fans will finally be relieved to hear a date for the Mi 5 launch event. Mr. Li also added that more details will be revealed on Tuesday, i.e. January 26.

Stay tuned, as I am sure we will soon receive more details about the device, both officially and unofficially!
