Many countries in the world like China and Spain already have the MI Band 4 since Xiaomi launched the product there. It was suspected that Xiaomi would launch the band alongside the Redmi K20 series on July 17, when they completed five years in the country, but that didn’t happen.

That isn’t the end of the world, though. Fans can still import the MI Band 4 from China in a very simple process.

AliExpress, the official app of the Alibaba group allows you to pay via your Visa/Mastercard cards and import the MI Band 4 right to your doorstep without any excess shipping charger.

All you need to do is download the AliExpress app on the play store and sign up. If you’re a new user, you’ll even get a discount of USD 3. Next, search for the MI Band 4. You’ll find a ton of options to choose from, but make sure you read through the comments and

  1. Find a seller who is trusted and has good reviews. Look for comments from people who have bought the product from India, to get a better idea of how long the product will take to get to you.
  2. Choose a seller with Free Shipping to save up on some cash. The band will cost you about Rs 2,000 to Rs 2,500 on most retailer pages.
  3. Choose the ‘Global Variant’ of the band. Most retailers on the app will sell both the ‘Chinese Variant’ and the ‘Global Variant’.

Add the product to your cart and enter delivery details and other required details. Keep in mind that since the products are being imported via free shipping, you might have to wait for up to 30 days for your product to arrive. But if your seller is reputed, rest assured that it will.
