Xiaomi itself couldn't think of having such successful year, but latest information suggests that it has shipped 70 million smartphones already this year. This means it has achieved its smartphone shipment target for the year with a couple of months left.

This was confirmed by Lei Jun, Founder and CEO of Xiaomi, who has also set a target for next year - 1000 million shipments. Not an easy task, but if Xiaomi continues releasing such good smartphones, they should achieve their goals. Not only Xiaomi wants to ship 100 million smartphones, but is also aiming to become a top 500 enterprise in the world in 2018.
