In 2018, the company introduced the Express Delivery option in Bengaluru for specific smartphones and pin codes. Users in Bengaluru can avail the benefits of this service between 9 am and 4:30 pm and the scheme isn’t available on Sundays. However, unlike the ‘Next-Day Delivery’ service, Xiaomi hasn’t asked for any extra charges from Bengaluru consumers for Express Delivery.
This move by Xiaomi is targeted at increasing sales through its official store while e-commerce websites like Amazon and Flipkart are already providing fast delivery. What do you think of this service? Let us know in the comments section below and stay tuned to Pricebaba for more updates.
