Maybe there are a few of you who are looking for your next Amazfit watch or Roborock vacuum cleaner in the Hungarian Mi Store online store with a furrowed brow. But to no avail, because it's not there. Why? Because!
According to the regional management of Xiaomi, from 15.04.2021, official Xiaomi resellers and shops in Hungary will not be able to sell Amazfit, Roborock, Roidmi and Viomi products. Therefore, the distribution of these products on official reseller sites will be discontinued in line with this decision.
The background to the decision: as you know, Xiaomi does not (nor does it) manufacture all products sold as Xiaomi, in fact. There is an extensive manufacturing system behind some of the products known as Xiaomi; some of them are startups, and some of them are giants. They have one thing in common: at one stage of their development, they have worked with Xiaomi, collaborated with Xiaomi, where their products can appear under the Mi logo, have been featured in Xiaomi's sales and distribution network, have had Xiaomi's marketing and sales machinery as a backdrop, and the rest of their products - already under their own brand - have been featured in Xiaomi's Youpin store. It's a win-win situation for everyone, and that's what we love about Xiaomi, because they have achieved a level of diversity and dynamism in expanding the Xiaomi product range that no other manufacturer has been able to produce in such a short time. At the same time, it is precisely this dynamic that sometimes creates a situation like the one we are in now: when a cooperation ceases, we can no longer sell the products of that manufacturer in our webshop as an official Xiaomi reseller.
Read the xiaomishop.hu blog page. They also explain the warranty conditions for products already purchased, as follows:
Of course, there are no changes to the warranty conditions and handling of the Amazfit, Roborock, Viomi and Roidmi products you have bought from us: if you have any problems with these otherwise excellent devices, you can contact us at our usual contact details and we will arrange a repair or replacement or even a refund.
In fact, the brands mentioned above were available in current online and offline shops until 15 April. But with their phase-out, you can now only get your favourite Xiaomi sub-brand in other stores.
Yes! Not yet! A xiaomishop.hu team has figured out that they are not going to let this go and move the brands from the official webshop to their own sites!
In these online shops, you can shop in the same way as you did in Xiaomishop. Same team, same conditions, same sales company as before, but for the reasons described above, as an official Xiaomi reseller, you will no longer be able to buy these products in Xiaomishop from 04.15. We are planning to make the loyalty points system of our shops interoperable as soon as possible, so that loyalty points earned for a purchase in one of our shops can be redeemed in other shops. We look forward to seeing you in all our online shops!
So NO PARA! You can buy from the new stores under the same conditions as before, just not under the Xiaomi umbrella. But if you insist on Xiaomi design, you can visit the to mishop.hu webshop also where almost everything is!
