I agree it's not just taxes like some usually say. It's also profit. Why are you surprised it's natural. You pay different price for the same thing in different part of world depending on income. It's called economy. Goods exported is always more expensive than in home country. People in U.S. or Europe are much more wealthy than Asian they can afford it. So why still somebody complains it's stupid.
About that price,
remember it's for 64GB and no SD support, so... LOL. But those who are smart will pay less.

Also, when comparing prices: The cheapest Mi 9 is 370$ on Aliexpress. In Norway, which has 25% taxes on regular products, the phone costs 490$. That's about 28$ higher than the 25% increase you'd expect, and I'm sure our local stores want a slant too.

Dumbo, 12 Aug 2019It's because of import taxes,that was always the problem wi... moreMost european countries have 0% or 5% customs duty on smartphones and they only charge VAT which is about 20%(depends on country). K20 Pro price is 270EUR on aliexpress and I bet retailers can get it on wholesales for about 240EUR so there is 190EUR difference to 430EUR. If european retailers take 30EUR profit there is still 160EUR difference which is more than what are import taxes in european countries.
So to conclude, Xiaomi wants to take more money from european customers which is not fair.

terrance511, 11 Aug 2019camera no ois ? Don't need OIS since it have software that offers stabilization instead. The most important thing when it comes to hardware is that it's stable groundmodel like Sony or Leica. From there you can add many features. If you add too many you end up like Samsung and have to price the phones 3 or 4 times more expensive than Xiaomis. In the real life you wont see much difference anyways unless you are a professional photographer.

Why does this have to be more expensive than the K20 Pro? It's literally the same phone with different software to enable some of the disabled bands and less RAM and less storage.
