Xiaomi is all set to launch Mi 11 Ultra in India on April 23. Before heading to India the flagship debuted in China last month. To tease its availability this device has now been listed on the e-commerce portal Amazon ahead of the official launch. It is also learnt that the Mi 11 Ultra will retail in the country with over Rs 70,000 price point giving a strong competition to the OnePlus 9 Pro and Vivo X60 Pro Plus that also falls in the same price segment.
Yes, the company has also created a dedicated microsite on Amazon to tease its availability. So when it gets launched in the country the phone will be made available to Indian buyers via the e-commerce site.
Amazon has begun taking registrations of interest while the Notify Me button has also gone live. The smartphone will be available for purchase immediately after launch for the buyers on April 23. Although the company has confirmed its availability, it kept its lips tight concerning the price of the Mi 11 Ultra.
According to industry insiders, Mi Ultra will come to India with a starting price of Rs 70,000. It should be noted that the speculated pricing is even higher than the OnePlus 9 Pro, Vivo X60 Pro+ and Apple iPhone 12 Mini. Also initially, Xiaomi will import its early units from China rather than local manufacturing in India. Therefore the required import duty and additional taxes on the smartphone will result in the price hike.
