Dear MIUIers,

Xiaomi has launched its maiden venture in the fast emerging drone market last year in May. Priced at just under RMB 2999($440), the Xiaomi Mi Drone is a quadcopter with a 4K camera, three-axis gimbal, and a remote control that makes use of your Mi smartphone as the view finder. The company also announced a second variant with a 1080p camera with a price tag of below RMB 2499($365).

However, ever since, there has been no substantial update on the status of the 4K variant of the UAV. But rumors says project stoped. But then, the company today crushed all those rumors by announcing that the Xiaomi Mi Drone 4K will be listed on March 3 10.00AM with a price of RMB 2,999($440) , whereas the battery for the same will be priced at RMB 499($73) .



Mi Drone 4K will be made available on Xiaomi’s own online store mi.com , as well as a few other places such as Jingdong Mall and Suning, just to name a couple in china.
