A couple of days back, we saw the Zuk Z2 Pro go on sale in China and it sold out in a record-breaking time of 4 mins and 23 seconds setting the pace for other OEMs to follow. One manufacturer who has just followed suit is Xiaomi with their recently launched Xiaomi Max high-end variant that went on sale today.

The standard edition of the Xiaomi Max went on sale before with 100,000 units made available for the first batch and they all sold out successfully and the top-tier edition didn’t fail to hit the mark as it was all picked from the company’s website and on JD mall not to long after the sales begun.

The folks over at Xiaomi say that the handsets – the standard edition — would be back on sale on their websites starting 1st June running down to the 20th with all sales kicking off at 10am. More so, if you are interested in the high-end variant, you would have to wait till June 7th before you can pick one up from Xiaomi’s website.

There seems to be some sort of supply issues for the premium Xiaomi Max so be sure to make a dash for it once it goes on sale on the site as there is a possibility that the smartphone would be on the shelves of the JD mall anytime soon.

Let’s run down once again through the spec sheets of all the three variants of the Xiaomi Max.

They would all come in with a 6.44 1080P display, 5MP/16MP front and back camera sensor, a measly battery pack of 4850mAh – and the handset still remains thin – dual sim configuration and capacitive keys below the large display.

The difference however lies in their memory configuration and the chipsets that power them seeing one variant coming in with 3GB RAM/32GB ROM + SD650, another with 3GB RAM/64GB ROM + SD650 and the most high-end variant coming in with 4GB RAM/128GB ROM + SD652.
