The prices of the models of the new Xiaomi 12 series are to be even higher due to the constant increase in the price of chips

You are looking forward to the following series of flagship devices from the workshop of the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi? Upcoming series Xiaomi 12 will eventually be even more expensive. Sales prices will also be increased due to the constant rise in prices of chips, the availability of which is also really limited.

Xiaomi 12: The series of flagship smartphones should be more expensive

The Xiaomi 12 series will be among the first to offer a new powerful chip Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1. However, with a device that offers top specifications, a higher selling price also comes hand in hand. In this case, it should also subdue this year's flagship Xiaomi Mi 11.

According to the Chinese blog, most brands (except Motorola) will list their smartphones with a processor Snapdragon 8 Gen1 for an amount greater than 4000 Chinese yuan. This amounts to approximately 554 in the current conversion € / USD 630. The lower price will therefore be an exception, especially in the case of manufacturers who managed to get the latest chipsets for their smartphones before the end of this year.

On the other hand, brands that introduce their flagship devices later will have to deal with a crisis that is still in power and a persistent semiconductor shortage.

This time we probably won't get below 4000 yuan

We expect the Chinese giant Xiaomi to launch three models in a series with the designation Xiaomi 12. Xiaomi was originally expected to be the first manufacturer with the latest Snapdragon processor, but there is also Motorola. Xiaomi will overtake her Edge X30, and we can't forget the Chinese competition in the form of Realme.

In addition, a source through the Weibo social network revealed that it is Motorola that will keep its Edge X30 model just below 4000 yuan. In other words, it is the pressure that is being created towards the Chinese manufacturer Xiaomi.

If we look at last year's series, the Mi 11 model started at a total of 3999 yuan. However, with rising production cost prices. The lack of chips and other problems in the supply chain would cost the basic model series Xiaomi 12 could start with value 4299 yuan (595 €). Higher models with 2K panels are likely to cost even more, approximately 5000 yuan (approx. 692 €).
