In addition to speedy and safe deliveries by Daraz, Smart Link Technologies will provide fans with attractive warranty conditions. Zong is also offering an attractive 4G offer on Xiaomi smartphones of 6 GB data for 6 months.

“We at Daraz, in partnership with Smart Link, are proud to serve as exclusive online partner for this exciting launch that will bring together Pakistan’s largest online store and Asia’s most innovative smartphone brand in what promises to be a complementary relationship. I believe this partnership will yield multiple benefits to both parties with opportunities for cross-pollination and convergence. Daraz welcomes Xiaomi to its Pakistan, in our shared mission to extend our global footprint.”
