Look what arrived earlier today:
My Xiaomi Mi power bank has arrived! 😀 I was able to avail of four units (for me, Mama and a coupla office mates) during last Friday’s flash sale at Lazada.
As planned, I went for the Cash on Delivery option. The email confirmation stated that provincial delivery would be within eight working days, so I was expecting my orders to arrive during the later part of the week or even next week. To my suprise, I got an email this morning informing me that my orders were already on the way! And sure enough, the delivery guy arrived before lunchtime. Really really quick service! Two thumbs up Lazada! 😀
I have so far tested it and found it to be working, and now it’s already fully charged. The Users Guide instructed me to fully charge it before first use, though upon plugging it the LED lights indicated it was half-full. It took three hours to fully top it up using my 2A charger from Samsung. It would probably take five to six hours if almost drained. We’ll see.
Cheers to emergency power backup! 😀
My brother was also able to avail one, the 5k mAh variant though ’cause within 2 minutes, the other was already sold out :))
They really did get sold out quite fast. I was lucky I was able to snag mine. I tried to buy a couple more units during the next flash sale, but it got sold out even faster! I managed to get them into my cart, but upon reaching the checkout page, it was already sold out! 😮
