Yesterday was a very special night for Xiaomi. That’s why we have to say very loud congratulations from Mundo Xiaomi! Why? Why? First, as the Beijing brand swept the Xataka Orange 2022 Awards presented by crazy comedian and director Joaquín Reyes last night, 16 November We were able to enjoy a historic premiere for us at the Capitol Cinemas in Madrid.
Secondly, because we do not forget those five years of the brand’s presence in Spain. Looking back, the numbers are staggering: Leader in mobile industry with 30% market share and the third best-selling brand in television with a 20% share. Starting with 20 employees and a single official store, Xiaomi Spain today has 110 employees and 54 Xiaomi Stores in 32 provinces across Spain.
Crushing growth data resulting in good business Awarded in the following categories. Without further ado, the awards received at the 2022 Xataka Orange Awards…
Gold on the best entry-level mobile phone
According to a professional jury made up of a number of expert editors and directors from Xataka and other industries, and after a debate in which it competed against realme 9 5G and HONOR, the Redmi Note 11 got the cat in the water.
Not for nothing, the Redmi Note 11 is a bargain cell phone with all the letters. Fabio Arenas stepped up to claim the prize from this small but tyrant. For around 150 euros – although it’s easy to find cheaper – we get A 179 gram terminal with IP53 certification and a 6.43″ FHD+ display, up to 6 GB of RAM and 128 GB of storage, four cameras with a 50 MP main sensor and a large 5,000 mAh battery. Of course, this mobile does not have dual WiFI or Bluetooth 5.0 besides having dual SIM.
Bronze for the best tablet, Redmi Pad
Equipped with up to 4GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, the new Redmi Pad is the best Android tablet on the market with good value for money without fast flashes.
Our colleagues at Xataka reviewed this tablet under a smaller profile, inheriting the best features of a more ambitious and expensive Xiaomi Pad 5: MediaTek Helio G99 processor, dual 8-megapixel cameras, a generous 10.61-inch screen, as generous as an 8,000mAh battery and a MIUI with vitamins for the Pad to feed it. It’s an elegant solid metal construction with four speakers certified to reproduce Dolby Atmos content. For the scarce 269 euros it currently costs, can you ask for more?
Bronze for the best robot vacuum cleaner and cleaning device
We have said before: The new Xiaomi Robot Vacuum X10 Plus is a milestone in automatic cleaning robots. With 4000Pa of power and a battery that can cover an area of approximately 240 m², this robot sweeps, vacuums, scrubs and polishes any surface in the house in just two hours. Congrats on this bronze.
m goldbest sustainable mobility device
First place belongs to Xiaomi Electric Scooter 4 Pro, the brand’s most advanced scooter. Our first contact was in Paris on June 21 at a European event organized by the brand, and we already knew then that it would be a hit.
We fell in love with its design, very careful with its 10-inch puncture-proof wheels and wider and more solid base that can reach 25 km/h. thanks to its large 12400mAh battery, it has an autonomy of 45 km. He is still king in his rank.
Gold for the best connected device in the house
Xiaomi Smart Pet Food Feeder gets another well-deserved gold. Those who don’t have pets should know that there is much more to this than a “feeder”; we’re talking about a fully automated system for intelligently distributing food. It even has its own app!
This device has 10,000 dispensing cycles. 304 stainless steel chamber that prevents bacteria formation and protects the food from fat accumulation. It runs on two AA batteries, so your cat or dog will never run out of food, even if the power goes out in the entire neighborhood.
Gold for the best health and personal care device
And we end this golden trio with another first for the Xiaomi Electric Toothbrush T700. We first learned about this electric toothbrush in April 2021 and even then it left us speechless: all-stainless DuPont head, LED display, IPX7 resistance, Bluetooth 5.0 connectivity, full compatibility with the Xiaomi Home app, and high-frequency power that can reach 39,600 rotations per minute. All for 89 euros.
