Then, a website story with 60 photos took readers through the space, from the phones to the smart home devices. After that, our film of the opening went up on YouTube, where it has passed 6,700 views.

As a result, the video post alone drew 778 reactions and 237 comments on Facebook. Later, in 2020, we also told the story of the Mi Drone Mini when it arrived in the Philippines.
