Xiaomi’s success in 2024 is attributed to its revised product, sales, and marketing strategies.
After a challenging period in 2022 and early 2023, the company streamlined its product lineup, focusing on standout models in each price range.
Key markets such as India, Latin America, Southeast Asia, and the Middle East saw strong demand for Xiaomi’s Redmi 13 and Note 13 series, offering affordable 5G capabilities.

Apple’s seasonal slump in August, due to consumers awaiting new iPhone models, contributed to Xiaomi’s rise.
This year, the iPhone 16 series is expected to drive a significant surge in Apple’s sales, likely allowing the company to regain the number two.
