Alleged Xiaomi Macbook Air-Like Laptop Leaked in Images, Specifications
Xiaomi had an impressive year when it came to device sales across segments and markets, including the Indian market.
Now, a new leak tips that the company is gearing up to enter the PC segment with the launch of its first laptop. Gizmo China claims to have received some details of the configuration of the alleged Mi laptop alongside the purported pricing of the device.
The alleged Mi laptop has been also leaked in few images that show similar design aesthetics to Apple's Macbook Air range, featuring a similar colour scheme, bezel size, keyboard style, and other details.
The laptop is seen sporting 'Mi' branding just below the screen, while another logo is present at the back where the Apple logo would be engraved on Macbook Air laptops. The report speculates that the first Xiaomi laptop will run a "customised Linux OS".
So far, no announcement regarding Xiaomi's first laptop has been made by the Chinese company and we recommend our readers to take this leak with a pinch of salt as the its legitimacy remains questionable.
To recap, Xiaomi this year was claimed to be the third-largest mobile phone vendor in terms of smartphones sold replacing Huawei in the third quarter this year, according to a market research firm. It was shortly after ousted from this spot when Lenovo completed its acquisition of Motorola.
The company had also announced that its first fitness tracker, the Mi Band, enjoyed great success as the company shipped over 1 million units since the tracker went on sale on August 18.
Recently, Xiaomi India Head Manu Kumar Jain announced that the Chinese smartphone brand had crossed a major milestone in India this month - it had managed to sell 1 million smartphones in the country since its entry in July.
