The Xiaomi Mi 8 was announced a couple months ago. After waiting over and over again, the company today has announced the availability of the device in Malaysia.
Xiaomi Mi 8 Specs
- 6.21-inch Full HD+ AMOLED display

The Mi 8 will be available in two versions: 6GB RAM + 64GB storage for RM1,599 (Available on August 16th via Lazada and Shopee) and 6GB RAM + 128GB storage for RM1,899 (Available on August 18th via Authorized Mi Stores, Lazada, and Shopee).

- Simultaneous Localization and Mapping (SLAM) algorithm, along with three processors, for mapping the surrounding layout and calculating the best cleaning path
- Nidec brushless motor with an ultra-strong suction force of 1800Pa (several times higher than ordinary motors) to suck up particles and debris effortlessly
- Wall sensor and speed-adjustable side brush to minimize the chances of pushing debris around or leaving them behind
- A large high-density 5,200mAh battery to allow sweeping of up to 2.5 hours and a cleaning area of up to 250m² on one single charge, as well as a “resume” function to avoid redundant work
