If you’re in the market for a new smartphone this holiday season, the upcoming Lazada 12.12 sale is where you’ll find the best deals on the hottest Xiaomi handsets.

Just like Huawei, Realme, and other companies, Xiaomi Philippines will be offering huge discounts up to P16,000 (about $315) on devices like the Mi A3, Mi 8, Mi Mix 3, and many more on December 12.

• Xiaomi Mi 9: P17,990 ($354) from P22,990 ($453)

For us, the best deal here is the Mi 8 at a fraction of its original retail price. The former Xiaomi flagship lists a Qualcomm Snapdragon 845 processor, a FullHD+ Super AMOLED screen, two rear-facing cameras, and infrared facial recognition as some of its highlights. Unfortunately, it doesn’t have an SD card slot, so you’ll have to make do with 64GB of internal storage.

The Mi MIX 3 is also an excellent purchase at half the price. Xiaomi’s first (and only, for now) slider phone is powered by a Snapdragon 845 and a dual camera. The MIX 3 sports two front cameras, too.
