Xiaomi’s big announcement today is that they have dropped the price of the 16GB Xiaomi Mi3 from by 300 Yuan ($47), bring the price of the flagship phone down from 1999 Yuan to only 1699 Yuan.
The price drop comes as no surprise as the phone maker have a track record of reducing costs of current flagship hardware midway through the life cycle, and just a few days after the OnePlus One launch the timing couldn’t be any better! The price drop only affects customers in Mainland China currently and only if you are looking to by the 16GB version.

The Xiaomi Mi3 at 1699 Yuan has a Snapdragon 800 2.3Ghz processor, 2GB RAM, 13 mega-pixel camera, alloy body, 5-inch display and 3150mAh built in battery. The OnePlus One (which is not yet on sale) will start at 1999,99 Yuan with a 5.5-inch display, 2.5Ghz Snapdragon 801, 3GB RAM, built in 3100mAh battery and rear 13 mega-pixel camera and 4G LTE.

It also affects customers in Hong Kong too, it got reduced by HK$460 and means it now costs only HK$2099.
Where can I Buy it at this price with international shipping?
You can’t buy it at these prices. You must know by now that the prices only apply to countries where xiaomi is active. Third party resellers are most likely not going to sell at these prices, because they have old stock bought at an higher price and they want to earn money.
I bought the Xiaomi 3 16GB Version from Spemall with $65 OFF, fast delivery and i am very satisfied . Now they seems have a big discount about it, you can go to their website to have a look . Good luck !
If you have friends or relatives in or from hong kong and such places you might be able talk into them getting it for you and you can give them money for the item
Go ahead Xiaomi. Miui V6+mi3s
I would like to buy this phone but simply can’t figure out a safe place to do so…
I’ve heard Xiaomi world is a good spot. Lots of good feedback from them. What country are you in?
I am in the US; I can find several sites purporting to sell the phone but figuring out a legitimate site has proven fruitless thus far.
And what about 64GB version!? No reduction there!? Mi3S is gonna come out…..
64GB version now 322 usd

You must know by now that the prices only apply to countries where xiaomi is active. Third party resellers are most likely not going to sell at these prices, because they have old stock and they want to earn money.
