The New Xiaomi Mi Notebook Air

What's your thoughts on this?
Too early to assess? I thought of getting it as a replacement to an old Dell. Any malware issues like their phones?

  • I also have my eyes on this for when my 5 year old Macbook Air dies (only having battery issues atm).

    I think at that price point, it is expensive. I was expecting a bit cheaper given they are a new-ish player in that area.
    The Samsung Notebook 9 seems to be a more decent laptop than the Mi Air.

    • are samsung stocking laptops in Aus?
      I thought they were trying to get out the market last i heard (early 2015)

      • not sure. I only follow the local market a few months before intended purchase date.
        I heard something similar last year as well but then this review popped up.

        • I think this review has been recycled from another country.
          Similar to this gizmodo review.

          The biggest fatal flaw is you cannot get in it this country.

          I have a 5 year old samsung notebook and I'm pretty disappointed I cannot get another on here in Aust.
          The build quality has been spectacular.

        • @dasher86:

          I recently bought the Samsung Notebook 9, from the US. They probably will never release in Aus :(

          Very light laptop, probably the lightest out there, weighting 840g, but the battery life is mediocre tho.

          The warranty sucks tho, as they only do repairs for international warranty. I got a faulty one, but they recently repaired in Aus so it is all good now.

        • @Derekhuang24: How much was is? Where from? Can you elaborate on the warranty?

        • @mazorn:

          Costs 999 USD, from Frys Electronic store. If faulty and in warranty, they can only repair. No refunds or replacements

  • The novelty which everyone was waiting for, enough said

  • As I mentioned here:

    Looks impressive. USB Type-C charging, and comes with a 45W charger.

    USB-C also does video out and data.

    • Did you review it? I wish they would review the 13.3" though.

  • love the minimalist no branding
