The official sale of the Xiaomi BlackShark Gamer phone started today at midnight China time, but within seconds the company was forced to announce that the device was sold out.
Yesterday it was brutal, 1,000,000 of the one million pre-registrations for the phone, which is much more than the company expected. It's not for nothing that it's at the top end of the range, with Xiaomi's pricing, the BlackShark is a nuclear powerhouse that's affordable for all levels. After the launch of the sale, the company's managing director was forced to announce on Weibo that the first shipment sold out in seconds:
THE FIRST BATCH OF BLACKSHARK GAMER MOBILE PHONES HAVE SOLD OUT AND THE POPULARITY RATE WAS MUCH HIGHER THAN EXPECTED. THE MOST IMPORTANT THING FOR US NOW IS THAT USERS ARE SATISFIED WITH THE BLACKSHARK PHONE. PLEASE GIVE US MORE TIME AND WE WILL DO OUR BEST TO REPLENISH THE STOCK. THANKS AGAIN FOR YOUR SUPPORT! I DIDN'T EXPECT IT TO SELL OUT SO QUICKLY. THE NEXT SHIPMENT WILL COME TOMORROW AT 10AM
A vásárlók között jó számmal előfordultak kiskereskedők is, aki már azonnal kirakták saját webshopukba vagy polcukra nem kevesebb mint 1000 Jüan nyereséggel, ami kb. 159$. Kíváncsiak leszünk az ismertebb boltok mennyiért rakják ki és ha itthon kapható lesz, mekkora árcetli lesz rajta…
