Thus far, the company has filed for an IPO and announced a spate of upcoming rollouts in Europe and a partnership with Three in the UK. Now we know dates for at least two of the countries: France on May 22 and Italy on May 24. >Xiaomi's the fourth largest phone manufacturer, and until now has been limited to large markets such as China and India. it makes some nice phones, like the the Mi Mix 2 and Mi 6, that we've been able to review via our CNET Singapore office, it'll be interesting to see if it can move up in rank after it's widely available elsewhere.
