The specs and features of Mi3 appear superb and it seems a great deal at the price on which it is being offered. So you definitely want yourself to test one but before putting all your efforts to win the battle, you need to understand fully that should you really buy one.

Let’s start first with the cons of Mi3 and the reasons that why you should not buy Mi3.

Why not to Buy Xiaomi Mi3

1. First and foremost reason for not buying Xiaomi Mi3 is Mi4 . Yes if you are wishing to buy Mi3 as it has great specs and latest processor you will be extremely disappointed to know that Xiaomi's Mi4 is already available in China and available for booking on Xiaomi's website. Mi4 is expected to hit Indian markets soon. It has latest Snapdragon 801 processor and  3GB RAM. So if you can wait, best option will be to go for latest version.
2. When latest version is already ready for sale then Xiaomi's strategy to launch its older version smells something fishy. Basically such thing is done at the time of clearing the old stock. It may be the reason why Xiaomi is not able to sell the Mi3 units according to its demand and only  few units are being imported.
3. Customers who were successful in getting the handset are now facing several problems. Some are complaining that the call clarity is not good,some are facing charging problem, in some camera is not starting,Touchscreen is not working and lots of other problems.Main concern is that the service centers are not fully functional and some have still not entered in an agreement with Xiaomi. All these reviews can be found at Flipkart's Mi3 page which is full of such disappointing reviews.
4. Xiaomi is not giving any colour choice and users have to satisfy themselves with the Metallic Grey.
5. It also lacks basic accessories and you will need to buy them separately.  

The phone has indeed great hardware specs, is really powerful and available at good bargain price but there are lots of issues which need to be addressed. If your old phone is still good and you not need to buy new one right now, it will be better to wait for some time before hurrying to buy it and then feeling cheated and frustrated.

Why to Buy Mi3 ?

1. If you want to buy Mi3 then you have best reason that it is giving great specifications at very attractive price.It is available on Xiaomi's website at the reduced price but still costs about 19K  ( However, the website is also providing Leather Flip case, Car charger, Touch pen and Screen protector with it.) and here we are getting it at only 14K but without accessories. 
2. Xiaomi is trying to address all the issues and showing good efforts towards their customers and it is good thing. One buyer has even mentioned that Xiaomi's top executive called him to know his problem and it is really great thing. 
3. Rooting is allowed without any problem to the warranty and it is great thing too.

Xiaomi Mi3 - 20000 units for sale on 12 August

Overwhelmed  by the response it got from India, Xiaomi is now gradually increasing the stock of Mi3 for Indian Customers.

This time on the 12^th August, Xiaomi is going to offer Twenty thousand Mi3 handsets for the 4^th round of Flash sale. This is about double of the quantity offered on 2^nd Flash sale when  Xiaomi sold 10400 units on 29^th July. On 5^th August it sold 15000 units of Mi3. No data is available about its first sale on 22^nd July. However, the units offered till now are very less against the demand. The registration data for buying Mi3 shows that more than 2.5 lakh customers are trying to get the smartphone and xiaomi has till date offered only about 25 thousand handsets. However, Xiaomi has promised to increase the number of units in the view of high demand.

Xiaomi is selling Mi3 in only single colour that is metallic gray. For the 4^th sale too, the same colour will be offered.  

Registrations for the 4^th Flash sale ends on 11^th August.

Xiaomi fined for Misleading

Xiaomi Misleading Customers

Third flash sale of Xiaomi Mi3 in India on 5th August also went off in flash, just in 2 seconds. So now it appears that only Mi3 is in demand in India with more than 2 lakh people wanting desperately to have Mi3.The strategy of creating hype and gaining attention seems to have paid well for Xiaomi and now Mi3 is the most talked about phone in India leaving behind all the Major players. However, many of the critics are saying that Xioami is not playing well with the customers and it is using them in wrong way to build its brand. Company is having history to play with the emotions of the customers.

Xioami fined for Misleading Customers

Here it is important to note that Xiaomi was fined by the Taiwanese Fair Trade Commission (FTC) for unfair marketing practice. It was found guilty for misleading the customers by false information and selling much lesser units of handsets then advertised. Xiaomi has claimed that its units put up for sale were sold in minutes and had also given the numbers of units that were for sale. However, the commission founded that the information given by Xiaomi to public was false and only few units were sold in the market.

Here in India too Xiaomi is following the same practice however, here it was cautious not to disclose the number of units put up for sale. It resorted to the same practice of putting very less units compared to the demand and then publicizing that its sale was instant hit. The phrases like gone in 2 seconds or 5 seconds created much hype and gave instant publicity to the company.

What is Flash Sale

The flash sale by Xiaomi is going very well with for it and because of this marketing strategy it has managed to make a strong presence in the smart phone market. Flash sale simply means high discount offer given by company for a limited time period.

Offers are sometimes very irresistible and since they last only for very limited period they attract much more buyer attention. Now the companies like Xiaomi are using it to build their brand and capture the much highly competitive market.

Xiaomi Cheating Customers

Xiaomi & Flipkart Cheating Customers

Xiaomi & Flipkart cheating  customers ?

Chinese smartphone manufacturer Xiaomi has taken the Indian smartphone market with a storm. Mi3 has become talk of the town and every phone lover is probably wishing to get one. According to Xiaomi, demand of Mi3 in India is so huge that its stock is finished as soon as it is put up for sale,in a fraction of time. Further,its exclusive sales partner Flipkart has informed that  1 lakh people registered on the website for its first sale, that was on 22^nd July,2014, more than 2.5 Lakh registered for its second sale on July 29 and 1.5 Lakh registered for the third round of sale on 5^th August.  

The company claims that  Mi3 went out of stock in 39 minutes on 22^nd July, in just  5 seconds on 29^th July and in just  2 seconds in the third round today.

Isn’t  this amazing ?

Yes surely it is amazing if the information provided by the Xiaomi and Flipkart is taken as correct. However, it appears that they are not honest in divulging the actual truth and attempting to deceive the customers. They may be playing with emotions of potential buyers to create hype about the product. It may be a very successful marketing strategy but is not justice with the customers and falls in the category of cheating.

Are they really cheating?

• No sale was made on 22^nd July

Xiaomi Mi3 went out of stock in 39 minutes on its first sale on 22^nd July,2014. However, no data was provided by Xiaomi  or Flipkart that how many units were put up for sale. This is surprising and creates suspicion.

This suspicion becomes more strong after studying the Import data of Mi3. Probability is that Not a single unit was sold on 22^nd July. According to the data from Zauba.com no unit of Mi3 was imported on or before 22^nd July. First lot of 10,400 units of Mi3 were imported only on 25^th July that may have went for sale on 29^th July. Second lot of 15000 units was imported on 1^st August,2014 which went on for sale today, 5^th August.

If this data is correct then it is clear that no single unit was sold on 22^nd July and company only gave false information.

•  Data confirms and matches the sale of units on 29^th July and 5^th august

 The import data provided by Zauba clearly confirms the claim of company to sell 15000 units on 5^th August. So this can be concluded that the data is correct and reflects the true picture.

• Flipkart is silent about the product

Every product sold on flipkart is displayed on its website all the time even if it is out of stock. User can check the details of the product and also the buyers can write their experience. It is shocking to see that no detail of Mi3 is available on the flipkart except on the  Mi3  advertisement page. No user reviews are available and no option to review the product or the service is available for Mi3. 

Does it not smells something fishy ? 

Does this not means that Flipkart is also cheating its customers by hiding the information and thus not allowing them to take informative decision.

Watch here how stock just finished in 2 seconds

 How Stock just finished in 2 seconds -5th August, 2014  

Conclusion

Xiaomi has resorted to unique market strategy to market its first smartphone Mi3 in India by creating hype and awareness about the product. Publicizing the number of people registering for the phone and the time in which the product is out of stock is very well serving the purpose of the company. Keeping total secrecy about the product sales and not allowing people to share their experiences on the website is making people more curious about it and creating more urge to have it.

How can it be called as fare by creating huge demand and enjoying the popularity without attempting to fulfill the demand. Xiaomi is exploiting the customers by putting very less units for sales as compared to the demand.

No doubt that the Mi3 is a great phone with great specifications and at very attractive price but the marketing strategy opted by Xiaomi cannot be called as a fair one. Xiaomi is not following ethical path and is exploiting the buyers and playing with their emotions.
