Xiaomi's Redmi K20 and Redmi K20 Pro may have launched only a while back, but the company claims that the two phones have already been lapped by a million users in China and neighbouring regions.Now, Xiaomi did claim that their first flash sale saw 200,000 units disappear in a matter of minutes, and today the company announced that the duo reached 1 million sales.The Redmi K20 series was introduced on 28 May, which reveals that the company needed just a handful of flash sales to push over a million smartphones.
