Alleged European prices for POCO F2 Pro smartphones highlight Xiaomi's controversial pricing policy for foreign markets

[Redaktion]

Alleged prices for two variants of the European market Xiaomi POCO F2 Pro smartphone have been leaked. The cheapest model starts at €649 (US$711), which is a considerable mark-up from the domestic market, where the phone is known as the Redmi K30 Pro. However, this seems to confirm Xiaomi's aspirations of emulating OEMs like Samsung and Apple.

isn't it the same for laptops when it comes to Asian markets. where they overprice it but price the products half the price of asian markets in their domestic markets. if you didn't have problem with that then you shouldn't have problem with this.

The price goes up due to local taxes/tariffs/duties and whatnot.

When Xiaomi began selling in Europe, their European prices were very similar to the Chinese ones. So how come now they are increased?
