Any hints on if their Air (12.5 & 13.3) notebook range will be available? I'm not on Facebook and seems to be the only channel to ask questions currently.

Considering the US prices have been around $460usd i'd say its pretty good for a retail price in nz.

I recall someone posted some inside details on what was going on, in the other thread (post since deleted) and the notebooks were going to be available, according to them.

I didn't think Xiaomi sold their notebooks outside China. I hope I'm wrong.

I was in one of their Singapore stores recently and they had the laptops for sale.

I was in the Sylvia Park store yesterday and they had one laptop on display (that I saw). Wasn't really interested so I didn't check which one it was.

 

Phone prices seem to be a little more than buying from AliExpress but, in my opinion, the difference is worth local warranty + not having to wait for shipping.

Critical to the phones are Band 28 compatible models. I'd be very keen on the Mi A2 if it had Band 28

I have the scale.  It doesn't sync automatically to Samsung health like it claimed but it's otherwise great (sync to the Mi app and then you type weight and body fat % into Samsung Health).  I paid $75, PB tech have had it on special at $55 so $39 is a bargain.

 

I would love the robot vacuum but fund limited...
