Neil Shah's key takeaways:

This is a great win for Xiaomi, and booking space in AT&T’s catalogue should further catalyse the vendor’s ambitions to get onto AT&T’s US shelves next year.
Mexico is becoming a key market (alongside Brazil where Xiaomi is unofficially selling) to help the vendor diversify and drive scale outside China and India.
And with the upcoming wave of 5G in these markets, Xioami can cement its brand presence now and really capitalize next year.
