A little background
A lot of Xiaomi’s success can be attributed to its origin. Xiaomi was founded in 2010 by ex-Kingsoft CEO Lei Jun as a software company by creating a custom Android-based OS called MIUI. This became a huge success in the tech world and prompted the company to create their own devices. A wide variety of mobile phones have been introduced by Xiaomi since then. There are two main categories of Xiaomi mobiles – the MI series which caters to those looking for a premium experience (with a slightly bumped up price tag), and the more affordable Redmi series with more design variety. Xiaomi has had success with other gadgets too – the MI Band has become a popular health tracker, and Xiaomi headphones are pretty well known for their quality. More among their trending gadgets include the MI Power bank, Wi-Fi extension, and wireless phone charger.
