Xiaomi launches its budget smartphone, Redmi 4, in India

-


In a press event in New Delhi, Xiaomi has announced the launch of its next budget smartphone, the Redmi 4, in India. The company had launched Redmi 4 in China in November last year.



Since Redmi 3 was never launched in India, Redmi 4 is essentially a successor to the Redmi 3s in the country.

“Redmi 3S was one of the most popular smartphones last year. We sold more than 4 million units of Redmi 3S during the life cycle of the product. Today we are thrilled to announce Redmi 4, which is an upgrade to Redmi 3S. Each of our Redmi devices have redefined the affordable smartphone segment in India, and we believe Redmi 4 too will meet the expectations of Mi Fans users who want high quality devices at an affordable price.”
Manu Jain, Vice President & Managing Director – India
