<span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span>’s Second Chip Company Founded with a Capital of 3 Billion Yuan
  As reported by Jiwei, Beijing Xuanjie Technology Co., Ltd. has recently been established, and its legal representative is Xuezhong Zeng, who holds the position of Senior Vice President at Xiaomi Corporation. The company has registered capital amounting to 3 billion Yuan and is involved in activities related to IC design services and product sales, among other areas.  This marks the second “Xuanjie Technology” venture within the Xiaomi family. Back in December 2021, Shanghai Xuanjie Technology Co., Ltd. was established, also under the legal representation of Zeng. The company’s scope of operations encompasses technological services in the semiconductor field, integration of information systems, IC design and service related, and product sales. All of these are fully owned by X-Ring Limited.  Xiaomi, alongside OPPO and VIVO, among other Chinese smartphone brands, often find it challenging to independently develop advanced system on a chip (SoC) due to constraints in technical expertise and financial resources. Consequently, their primary focus on developing specialized chips like power management integrated circuits (PMICs) and Image Signal Processor (ISP), based on their collective experience in chip development.  Xiaomi stands out as the sole Chinese brand among these peers, having successfully launched its self-developed SoC in 2017, known as the “Surge S1,” which was integrated into the mid-range Xiaomi 5C. Nevertheless, the Xiaomi 5C fell short of expectations, mainly due to the absence of distinguishing features in the “Surge S1.” Many reviews highlighted subpar real-world performance of Xiaomi phones equipped with the S1 chip.  Subsequently, Xiaomi did not introduce a successor chip. In 2021, they introduced the ISP chip “Surge C1” and the charging chip “Surge P1.” In 2022, they rolled out the PMIC G1, emphasizing its significant potential in enhancing battery health, accurate battery life predictions, and overall smartphone battery performance.  Xiaomi’s President, Weibing Lu, has previously reaffirmed the company’s unwavering commitment to developing in-house chips. They fully acknowledge the long-term and intricate nature of chip development, respect the established development patterns in the industry, and remain prepared for a long-term strategy, all with the ultimate goal of enhancing the competitiveness and user experience of their end products.

 <span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span> Overtakes Fitbit and Apple to Become the Largest Wearables Vendor in EMEA in 2018Q3
Shipments of wearable devices in EMEA grew 55% year over year to 6.6 million units in 2018Q3, according to data from International Data Corporation's (IDC) Worldwide Quarterly Wearable Device Tracker. Basic wearables, including wristbands, grew 48% year over year to represent 55.5% of the market. Smart wearables, including smartwatches, increased 65% from the same period last year."Although smart wearables continue to grow strongly in Western Europe driven by the success of smartwatches, basic wearables excelled in Central and Eastern Europe and the Middle East and Africa market in 2018Q3, due to the success of Xiaomi. The Chinese vendor flooded the market with its low-end Mi Band 3 wristband, which became a top seller in EMEA," said Francisco Almeida, senior research analyst for IDC's European Wearable Devices.Smart wearables continued to experience strong growth in the region, driven by strong performances from Apple, Samsung, and Fitbit. Apple shipments increased 52% year over year due to the continuous success of previous versions of the Apple Watch, as well as the launch of the new Apple Watch Series 4. Samsung had a stellar quarter with the release of its Galaxy Watch, which was the main driver for the vendor's growth of 75% year over year in the smart category. Fitbit continues the transition from wristbands to smartwatches, which is helping the brand to offset the strong decline in the basic wearables segment. The vendor became the third-largest smartwatch maker in the quarter.After five consecutive quarters of decline, basic wearables grew 47.5% in 2018Q3 from the same period last year. Xiaomi wristbands Mi Band 2 and Mi Band 3 drove most of the growth in the category. The connected watches from Fossil Group also contributed to the growth of watches in the basic wearables category.The EMEA wearable device market is expected to reach a total of 43.8 million units shipped in 2022 and a total market value of $11 billion. Smart wearables, particularly smartwatches, will account for most of the market in 2022, while basic wearables still have pockets of growth potential in some product types, namely earwear and clothing.

Meitu and <span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span> Partnership Points to Consolidation in China’s Smartphone Market
Meitu Inc., a company best known for its selfie app, and Xiaomi Inc., a leading smartphone maker, announced on November 19 a strategic partnership to jointly launch Meitu-branded phones and other smart devices in a move that IDC believes will have a far-reaching impact on the brand development of Meitu and Xiaomi as well as the smartphone market as a whole.The Meitu-Xiaomi partnership should help both parties expand their customer base and signals a further consolidation in the highly competitive Chinese smartphone market, IDC believes.IDC expects the tie-up to impact the two companies and the smartphone market in the following ways:1. Over the last year, Xiaomi has stepped up its efforts to improve the camera capabilities of its products and has done a lot in AI-powered photography R&D. Leveraging Meitu’s image processing technologies and selfie algorithms will help Xiaomi further boost its AI-powered photography and photo quality and reduce its gap with leading vendors such as Huawei.2. Introducing the Meitu brand which is popular among female users will bring more female customers to Xiaomi whose users are overrepresented by male users, thus covering wider demographics.3. Introducing the Meitu brand enables Xiaomi to offer greater diversity of smartphone products under multiple brands and series, including Redmi, Xiaomi, Black Shark, Pocophone, and Meitu. Xiaomi is gradually forming a multi-brand portfolio targeting different user groups, thereby laying the foundation for it to compete in the market in the long term.4. Through Xiaomi’s sales network, Meitu’s software products will reach a larger group of customers via smartphones. Moreover, licensing its hardware business to Xiaomi allows Meitu to focus on software development and the upgrade of its image processing technologies.5. With the top five vendors in China’s smartphone market taking up a nearly 83% market share, the growth potential will increasingly diminish for small vendors in areas such as marketing and supply chain resource integration. Going forward, more small vendors are expected to seek strategic cooperation with large vendors and drive consolidation in the China’s smartphone market.Meitu Inc. was founded in Xiamen in 2008 as a developer of selfie apps such as MeituPic and BeautyCam, and has been focused on selfie algorithm development. In 2013, the company ventured into the smartphone market and launched smartphones targeting female users and the selfie market. Despite a higher profit per phone sold and a higher brand premium, the company has become increasingly marginalized in China’s dog-eat-dog smartphone market due to its meager shipments. According to IDC’s Worldwide Quarterly Mobile Phone Tracker, Meitu only had a 0.5% market share in China with shipments of approximately 1.5 million units as of the third quarter of 2018.

It entered the market in 2014 as an online-only retailer, before opening physical stores across India. Samsung and Vivo are its closest competitors there.Xiaomi was awarded a Guinness World Record on Tuesday for opening the largest number of retail stores in India simultaneously. The company also operates in Asia, Europe, the Middle East, Africa, and Mexico.

<span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span> wants to tempt Chinese buyers with more high-end smartphones
Smartphone maker Xiaomi plans to sell more premium mobile phones in China because consumers are willing to pay for them, according to a senior company executive.The company made that decision a year ago and there are indications it was a good move, Xiaomi's Chief Financial Officer, Chew Shou Zi, told CNBC's "Squawk Box' on Thursday."We believe that for this year, our strategic focus is to strengthen our position in the mid and high-tier market," Chew said.Xiaomi started off by making high-end smartphones at substantially lower price points compared to other device makers. But increasingly, the company has faced intense competition from other low-cost Chinese rivals like OPPO and vivo."For this quarter, the reflection of the success of our strategy was an increase in our average selling price by 25 percent of our smartphones in China," Chew said.He added that the shifting focus, along with expansion into offline channels, will "lay a very good groundwork for growth in 2019 and beyond."Xiaomi shares rose 1.36 percent on Thursday morning in Hong Kong.No. 4 smartphone maker in ChinaXiaomi is the fourth-largest smartphone maker in China with about 13.8 percent of the market share, behind its rivals Huawei, OPPO and vivo, according to the International Data Corporation. The Chinese smartphone market has struggled for growth in recent years due to a high smartphone penetration rate.In the second quarter of 2018, preliminary IDC data suggested that 105 million smartphones were shipped in China. That translates to a 5.9 percent drop from a year ago, but the pace of that decline narrowed compared to the first quarter, IDC said.An employee, left, hands a Xiaomi Corp. branded shopping bag to a customer inside a Xiaomi store. Anthony Kwan | Bloomberg | Getty ImagesAn employee, left, hands a Xiaomi Corp. branded shopping bag to a customer inside a Xiaomi store. "The market's average selling price increased 15 [percent on-year] in the second quarter," Xi Wang, a senior market analyst at IDC China, wrote in a report. "This suggests that consumers are willing to pay more for a phone targeted for their needs, including not just better cameras but also emerging categories such as gaming."Wang added that Chinese users continue to spend more and more time on mobile phones, and therefore, smartphone makers should emphasize things like "design, quality, and brand image" to drive replacements in China.Internationally, Xiaomi's focus depends on various markets that it operates in, according to Chew."For the Indian market, in particular, because of where it is in terms of its [gross domestic product] growth overall, and its level of consumption spend, the consumers are actually demanding more entry-to-mid-tier level phones," he said, adding that users in Western Europe preferred more mid-to-high range devices.Still, analysts have said that a notable part of Xiaomi's growth comes from the robust Indian smartphone market, which returned to double-digit growth in the second quarter. There, Xiaomi is battling the world's largest smartphone-maker Samsung for pole position.Data from IDC said that Xiaomi had 29.7 percent of the market in the second quarter, compared to Samsung's 23.9 percent. However, technology market research firm Counterpoint Research, said the South Korean tech giant had a 1 percentage point lead over its Chinese rival.On Wednesday, Xiaomi reported second-quarter earnings that beat expectations despite questions looming over its long-term business model. Smartphones contributed to the majority of the revenue, followed by its internet of things and lifestyle business and then internet services.Chew said he was "very optimistic" about the future of the global internet services business that includes mobile games and video and music streaming services. Xiaomi said most of the internet services revenue for the second-quarter was generated in mainland China."We believe that if you provide a very good service to them, then monetization is a lot easier further down the road," he said."The priority today is to make sure that we acquire a lot of international users and then provide them with a very good service," Chew said.

<span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span>'s revenue surges nearly 70 percent in the second quarter as smartphone growth remains strong
Isaac Lawrence | AFP | Getty Images Chinese electronics giant Xiaomi reported second-quarter earnings on Wednesday that beat expectations amid pressure on its share price and questions over its long-term business model.It's the first time Xiaomi has released results as a public company after its initial public offering (IPO) in July.Here's how the company did:Revenue hit 45.24 billion yuan ($6.60 billion) compared to expectations of of 39.18 billion yuan, according to analysts surveyed by Thomson Reuters. That represented 68.3 percent year-on-year rise.Operating profit loss of of 7.5 billion yuan.Net profit of 14.63 billion yuan, from a loss of 7.03 billion yuan in the first quarter of 2018.Shares of Hong Kong-listed Xiaomi are up 4 percent since the company went public in July. The shares were higher going into the earnings report and were above the IPO price of 17 Hong Kong dollars after dipping below it and hitting a record low last week. Still shares of the Chinese technology firm are around 18 percent of the its record high close of 21.55 Hong Kong dollars on July 18.Smartphone revenues raked in 30.5 billion yuan in revenue for the second quarter, a 58.7 percent year-on-year rise, despite the overall handset market declining. Xiaomi said that the average selling price of devices rose too. In its earning statement, the technology firm said that the Chinese smartphone market is in a "period of recalibration" but its focus is on expanding into the high-end segment.Xiaomi has grown by creating mid-to-low-priced devices with high specs. But it needs to expand into higher priced devices in order to boost revenues."We believe our strategic focus to further penetrate the high-end smartphone market by optimizing our product portfolio in 2018 will lay the groundwork for further shipment unit growth in China in 2019," Xiaomi said in a release.Analysts are concerned that Xiaomi could struggle to diversify its business away from hardware, which is a low margin business. Smartphones account for around 70 percent of Xiaomi's revenues, while other products such as TVs are another 20 percent. Under 10 percent of revenues come from its internet services business which include its music streaming product.Xiaomi is one of the world's biggest smartphone makers but it is facing intense competition from other Chinese players like Oppo, Vivo and Huawei who are offering high quality devices at low prices. In the high-end it could face pressure from Apple as well.Connected device sales riseXiaomi continued growing emerging areas of its business with internet of things and lifestyle product segment grew 104.3 percent year-on-year, bringing in 10.4 billion yuan in revenues in the second quarter. This unit includes TVs and the company's virtual reality headsets.Internet services revenues were up 63.6 percent year-on-year to 4 billion yuan in the three months to June. This includes revenues from areas such as advertising and Xiaomi's music streaming product. Still, internet services only contributed 9 percent of revenue, which could worry investors who are concerned that Xiaomi relies too heavily on smartphones.Xiaomi has typically been reliant on China for making money, but it said that international revenue grew 151.7 percent year-on-year to 16.4 billion yuan, accounting for 36.3 percent of total revenue. A large part of this was thanks to strong growth in India, where it is one of the biggest players, and continued expansion into Europe.

Qualcomm among cornerstone investors for <span style='color:red'>Xiaomi</span>'s $6.1 billion Hong Kong IPO
Chinese smartphone maker Xiaomi has lined up $548 million from seven cornerstone investors including U.S. chipmaker Qualcomm for its Hong Kong IPO of up to $6.1 billion, according to a term sheet seen by Reuters.Xiaomi, which also makes internet-connected devices, has set a price range of HK$17 to HK$22 ($2.17 to $2.80) each for its listing in the Asian financial hub, one of the biggest tech floats globally in recent years, showed the term sheet.Other cornerstone investors include Chinese express delivery company SF Express, domestic telecom service provider China Mobile, state-backed investment firm CICFH Entertainment and state-run conglomerate China Merchants Group.The seven will take up a combined 10 percent of the shares being offered in the IPO, and the company will open the book to institutional investors on Thursday, according to the term sheet.Xiaomi and China Mobile declined to comment. China Merchants Group, CICFH Entertainment, Qualcomm and SF Express did not immediately respond to requests for comment.The IPO values the Beijing-based, Cayman-domiciled company at $54.3 billion - or $70.3 billion after a 15 percent "greenshoe" or over-allotment option which can be sold if there is demand. If the greenshoe is exercised, Xiaomi's free float will be 9.99 percent of its enlarged share capital.Xiaomi is selling about 2.18 billion shares in the IPO, 65 percent of which are primary, according to the term sheet. The selling shareholders are early investor Morningside, a Chinese venture capital firm, and Xiaomi managers Wong Kong Kat, Liu De, Heng Feng and Li Wanqiang.Reuters reported on Tuesday that Xiaomi lowered its likely valuation to a range of $55 billion to $70 billion following its decision to delay its mainland share offering until after its Hong Kong IPO.The delay was triggered by a dispute between the company and regulators over the valuation of its China depositary receipts (CDRs), sources said, casting doubt on Beijing's efforts to lure foreign-listed Chinese tech giants back home.Xiaomi had been expected to raise up to $10 billion, split between its Hong Kong and mainland offerings. The delay to its CDRs is a blow for Chinese officials, who designed them as a means for China to compete globally for major tech listings and give mainland investors access to the country's tech champions.Xiaomi's blockbuster Hong Kong offering on the other hand is set to be the first listing under new exchange rules designed to attract tech floats, as competition heats up between Hong Kong, New York and the Chinese mainland.China's largest provider of on-demand online services, Meituan-Dianping, also plans to file for a Hong Kong IPO later this week, which would be the city's second multibillion-dollar tech float this year, said people familiar with the matter.Meituan-Dianping declined to comment. The people declined to be identified as the information was not yet public.Xiaomi was set up in 2010 and doubled its smartphone shipments in 2017 to become the world's fourth-largest maker, showed data from Counterpoint Research, defying a global slowdown in smartphone sales.CLSA, Goldman Sachs and Morgan Stanley are joint sponsors for Xiaomi's Hong Kong IPO.
