In November 2020, Xiaomi announced a partnership with the Argentine Football Federation (AFA) to become the official technology partner of the Argentina national football team. Through this collaboration, Xiaomi has become the official supplier of electronic equipment and technology for the Argentina national football team.

According to the official statement, Xiaomi has supplied the Argentina national football team with products such as smartphones, laptops, tablets and smart TVs. In addition, Xiaomi provided customized technology solutions and technical support to help the national team improve their performance in competitions.

Xiaomi also launched a special edition Mi 10T Pro smartphone to celebrate this partnership. This model was released as the Mi 10T Pro Argentine Edition and featured images of Argentina’s national soccer teams.

The partnership between Xiaomi and the Argentine Football Federation demonstrates the company’s interest in the development of sports and technology in a wide range of fields, from technology to entertainment and sports.

Recently, a press release was issued from which I take the following statements:
