Imagine you’re expecting a smartphone delivery and you do not have anyone at home to receive the phone and you cant ask the courier guy to visit your office or deliver it to a friend or a relative. It’s a slightly tricky situation, isn’t it? Xiaomi has come up with a solution and has today announced that it will offer a new smart delivery option, powered by Smartbox, on its own e-commerce platform, Mi.com.
The new delivery option allows users to opt for a smart box delivery on Mi.com and Mi Store app. It means users can pick Smartbox as a delivery option, and get their online purchase delivered to a digital locker near their location. The locker can be accessed with a unique OTP and users can pick up their purchase anytime as per their convenience within 72 hours.
It very unique and easy option to have their purchases picked up from a safe, convenient and accessible location. This end-to-end smart offering gives Mi Fans a service that fits into their lifestyle with the aid of technology.
