[UPDATED] Xiaomi Confirms Mi Notebook India Launch for June 11
Jun. 1, 2020I was waiting on Xiaomi to drop the launch date for Mi NoteBook in India but there’s been no official word since morning. The company has beenteasingthe launch of its laptops in India for the past week. And now, a fresh 91Mobiles report has shared not only the model that Xiaomi might launch in India but also the launch date.
The report suggests that Mi laptops are set to make theirIndia debut on 11th June, i.e next week. And while we speculated the company to bring the Mi Notebook Pro or Mi Notebook Air to India, it seems like arebranded RedmiBook 13is what will be in store for us. It will, however, not feature the Redmi branding (as should be obvious from all of the teasers) and sit under the Mi portfolio. You can check out the leaked marketing materialright here.
Xiaomi India MD Manu Kumar Jain hasalready teasedthe 1C fast-charging support for the upcoming laptop on Twitter. We also expect a slightly modified A-panel (top lid) to be in tow as well. RedmiBook 13 includes a 40Whr battery with 65W charging support. You will also find two 2W speakers and a myriad of ports, including 2x USB 3.1 port, 1x HDMI, and a 3.5mm audio jack onboard.
Xiaomi may be reserving the RedmiBook Ryzen variant, whichdebuted just last week, for launch down the road. It could arrive as an affordable variant of the upcoming Mi laptop. The company has already confirmed that it’s targeting pros and office-goers with its laptop and it won’t really be affordable. What are your expectations from the first Xiaomi laptop release in India?
Just moments ago, Manu Kumar Jain took to Twitter to put an end to our anticipation. He confirmed that the Mi Notebook is launching in India on 11th June. The date is in line with the recent leak and so is the marketing material, which can be found on thislanding page.
The tweet further goes on to mention that the Mi NoteBook launching in India will be “India 1st, India exclusive, and Made for India.” It will be the global debut of this new variant, which means it might make its way to other markets as well.
