Author's Note: The original review can be found at my blog - Roidmi F8 Unboxing, Roidmi F8 Review @ JayceOoi.com.

Last chance to get it at Indiegogo!!!

Hey guys, check out the latest handheld cordless vacuum cleaner by Xiaomi – Roidmi F8. Lightweight with super powerful suction, makes cleaning more efficient. And it can also connect to your phone through Bluetooth. With Roidmi Intelligent Life APP, you can check battery power, cleaning time and receive alerts for cup cleaning and filter changing. Going to launch in Indiegogo soon. In short, it’s a budget Dyson V8.

Does the vacuum come with warranty and any local support available? Else, people will be safe and just top up to buy a Dyson.

The Roidmi F8 is warranted internationally for 1 year. They will confirm the distributors in each country very soon.

Yes, you can relocate wall mount. Just re-screw it again. No idea on purchase additional one. Didn't find one online.

Oh, I mean the warranty period given by your seller. Not the standard 1 year warranty. If not over seller warranty, push Shopee for warranty claim.
I don't think Roidmi China will entertain you directly.
