They will set up shops throughout the country, offering support and repair functions similar to what Xiaomi is doing for its clients.

B2X’s service is based on its Smartbar, which offers in-store service solution for support and service of smartphones as well as accessories, whether they are under warranty or not. All their services are completely integrated with its ‘Smartcare Technology’ platform, which offers real-time visibility on all service interactions.
