I'm not a rep of Xiaomi in any capacity at all but AeroBenin shared this to me and I need to make clarifications.


Xiaomi have an official store on Jumia where they sell their phones at official rates.

All the other shops are 4th party vendors at best and can sell at whatever prices they so choose. Also, with the recent fall of oil prices and the Naira crash, all imported items bought in dollars have shot up in value to reflect the reduced spending power of the naira.

Our fellow greedy Nigerians are now trying to cash out. This is no way the fault of Xiaomi. The price of ALL other phones have gone up too.

That being said, there are respected and reputable sellers here like:

Protein0
Macbeyland
Ifedith
BlackArab
Noobody

That sell Xiaomi products at very fair prices.

Get the Note 8. A30 is just meh. Apart from the Samsung brand name and the super Amoled display, the phone has nothing else to offer.

Last year, I picked the RN7 over the A30 and I didn't regret it. If you really want Samsung, close eye and get the A50.

Hmmn. OK thanks. Let's hope the price come down a bit. But another thing. Why is it that most of these xiaomi phones don't come with earphones?

Haha grin do you know they produces power bass earphones so they want customers to patronize them that's why they don't include it in the boxes and they're way much expensive and durable. smiley
Re: Xiaomi Phones With Outrageous Price Tags On Jumia by DriggityDre: 7:20pm On May 05, 2020
Jumia has been known to over-price their products. Sometimes, even up to 50% profit on some items. Their shoes and watches are crap too, unless you are willing to spend more. I recommend going to a store to get these things.

Xiaomi Piston earphones are not cheap. If included in the box, it'll increase the phone's price by at least 5k. When you handle one, you'll understand what I'm saying.

Cbrezy is right. It's usually done to save costs.

I'd prefer they put it together with the phone. I think it would be cheaper compared to buying it separately. The ear dot currently is abt 8k in jumia
