If at the end of the year a Chinese flagship costs over 35 million VND, are you still willing to upgrade your phone or will you switch to buying a high-end used device?
Information from Xiaomi CEO Loi Quan is making the technology community especially concerned when he believes that smartphone prices will continue to increase in the near future. The reason is not only due to production costs but also related to the AI race that is causing the price of components such as RAM, memory and processor chips to escalate.
It is worth noting that this is no longer just Xiaomi's story. Many major brands such as Samsung, OPPO, vivo and HONOR are also facing similar cost pressures.

According to many industry experts, China's top flagships can completely reach the 10,000 Yuan mark.
Conversion equivalent to approx
10,000CNY ≈ 36,000,000 VND
This price was once considered reserved for iPhone Pro Max or Galaxy Ultra but is now appearing more and more on high-end Android smartphones.
Xiaomi is facing a big challenge
Although famous for its high configuration strategy at competitive prices, Xiaomi also admits that it is difficult to maintain attractive prices if components continue to increase sharply.
New technologies such as
✅ AI created on the device
✅ Large sensor periscope zoom camera
✅ Super bright screen over 5000 nits
✅ New generation process chip
all cause production costs to increase significantly.

Market perspective
If this trend continues, the period 2026 - 2027 could see the strongest smartphone price increase in many years. Users who want to own a high-end flagship may have to spend from 30 to 40 million VND instead of about 20 to 25 million VND as before.
The most controversial question today
If Xiaomi 17 Ultra sells for about 36,000,000 VND, and Samsung Galaxy S26 Ultra sells for about 40,000,000 VND, which brand will you choose?
