The race for supremacy in the world of gadgets does not stop, and now a new competitor has entered with force. The Xiaomi firm managed to sell 200 thousand tablets of its new Mi Pad 5 model in just 5 minutes after its launch in China, the Gizmochina portal reported. This feat is a great precedent as the Asian company is getting ready to launch the device globally and, perhaps, unseat Apple's iPad .

However, the craze for Xiaomi's recently launched tablets caused a big problem: overselling and shortage of accessories. The company was not able to meet the demand for keyboards and stylus (optical pens) for all buyers.
