Xiaomi at 5 years old (INFOGRAPHIC)

Mi Note is the giant Xiaomi phone you can’t have (REVIEW)

Disruptive Chinese phone maker Xiaomi is now five years old. In that time it has accomplished a lot more than pretty much any other half-decade-old company – it has diversified from smartphones to all manner of smart gadgets, expanded out of China, made headlines around the world, formed a legion of passionate fans, and risen to become one of the world’s top phone brands.

While all that was happening, Xiaomi has pushed HTC to the edge of the abyss, terrified the life out of Samsung, and perhaps even given Apple some food for thought.

Here’s our infographic showing some fun facts about Xiaomi as well as a timeline of the highlights of the past five years.
