Xiaomi has fixed the second round of sales for the Mi 6 in China for May 5 at 10 AM via Xiaomi mall. Of course, the flagship will still be sold via flash sale and across several platforms too. We expect the next round to pan out just the same way the first round went. That is, the Xiaomi Mi 6 may likely be sold out in seconds as well.

The company did not disclose if the sales would still be for the Black variant only or if the white and blue and maybe the ceramic version would make their own debut during this next flash sale. It is unlikely, though, that the ceramic version will be available so soon. Even the sleek blue and white versions may not be available in the next round of sales.

The Xiaomi Mi 6 is the company’s latest flagship device in the high-end Mi-series. The flagship device comes with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 835 chipset backed by 6GB of RAM on all models. There is also two storage versions, one with 64GB and a top-end model with 128GB storage. One stand out feature of the Mi 6 is the premium body design it packs. Another amazing feature is the dual camera setup at the rear which deviates from the main sensor + depth of field sensor. Instead, it features a 12MP main sensor and 12MP telephoto sensor. The Mi 6 runs MIUI 8 based on Android 7.0 Nougat and has a 3350mAh battery under its hood and lots more.

The Xiaomi Mi 6 finally went up on sale today in China just as it was scheduled to. The sales took place across several e-commerce platforms including Mi Home, Xiaomi Mall, Jingdong, Tesco, and Suning. As was expected, the flagship device only opened for few seconds before it was listed as sold out on Xiaomi official web store, Mi Home. The device was also listed as sold out on the other platforms.

For some reasons, Xiaomi announced not too long before the sales date that only the Black variant of the Mi 6 would be available on this first flash sale. True to its word, the device was only available in Black but buyers had the option of choosing between the 6GB + 64B and 6GB + 128GB storage versions which to buy.

We do not know when the Snapdragon 835 powered flagship device would go on its next flash sale but we expect the cycle to keep repeating itself, at least for some time to come until Xiaomi makes enough stock available to meet the demand for the device. However, the Mi 6 can be gotten from third-party resellers who are likely going to offer it at a price that is a little higher than the official price.

According to the schedule announced by Xiaomi, the Mi 6 flagship will go up for its first flash sale on April 28 at 10 am, which is just four days away. Going by latest details, the flash sale is likely going to leave many persons disappointed because, like previous Xiaomi phones, the Mi 6 units may still come out scarce.

Recently, popular Chinese tech blogger Lu Yiwen V leaked a photo which showed the first batch of Xiaomi Mi 6 has been packaged, awaiting shipment. The number of units of the very first batch of the Mi 6 wasn’t revealed then but now, the blogger has in another Weibo post revealed that the first batch is made up of just 80,000 units. Also, that only the black colored 64GB storage version will be up for grabs in the first flash sale.

Presently, the Xiaomi Mi 6 is said to have already amassed over 800,000 reservations on Jingdong (JD.com). Statistics of the reservations on the other channels are not known right now but that figure would likely double when reservations on all the sales channels are collated. In addition, Xiaomi had also indicated that the Mi 6 will go on sale in its Mi Home stores across China on April 28. Reservations for the Mi Home sales will open on April 27 and will require payment for the device. An ID card entitles the owner to just one unit which will be more than assured if booking is successful than getting the device via the flash sale. So, are we looking at another shortage situation here? Or Xiaomi has it all covered by making more units of the flagship ready before the first flash sale? We expect demand to far outweigh supply for the Mi 6 during this first sale, but in line with Xiaomi’s aggressive sales drive this year, the device will likely become available in large stock as time goes on.
