Xiaomi is here, they are going to start selling the Xiaomi Mi3 in India from 22nd July for Rs. 13,999. The handset will be available exclusively from Flipkart website. The company will also launch some more products pretty soon.
The company is new in India but has a very good reputation. They are serious about the after sales support. They have enabled 36 service centres in about 20 major cities in India and has 2 Mi Exclusive Centres. The number of exclusive centres will increase slowly.
The Mi3 I believe will become a hot selling item followed by Redmi Note and Redmi 1S. The product build quality is great and comes loaded with hardware that for now were only available on premium brands. As for the price you are already aware of.
Redmi Note and 1S will be available in August. The company will also be launching Mi Power Bank of 5200 and 10400 mAh capacities. No word about the Mi-Pad availability in India (could happen soon).
The company has no plans of rolling out Xiaomi Mi3 64GB version for now. The silver color Mi3 version will only be available on the buy day. The Mi3 box pack contains the handset, user guide, travel charger and data cable (no earphone included).
These handsets run on MiUi version 5 based on Kitkat 4.4. The good part is Xiaomi does a lot of software updates and even their older models that were launched a few years back are still receiving the updates.
Check the video to get a quick look at the handsets, Mi Power Bank and the 7.9 inch Xiaomi Mi Pad
hello gogi plzzz tell where to buy these printed iron man 3 back covers for mi3 and where you can get it online?
Why are they not giving earphones with the pack?
Gogi, many have been facing led notification bug. please check if it is working for calls, messages and general notifications for more than once because sometimes it functions properly and sometimes it doesn’t.
Will check the review is live, so far I have not faced any notification issue.
Hello gogi bro. I’ve been waiting since this morning for your review of Mi3. Have you completed it yet??
Will be at 6PM.
When can I expect redmi 1s mobile in India.
Where can I buy xiaomi red note?
13.37 GB memory for user. It’s slippery.
Delivery boy is here with Mi3 will post user experience in an hour.
I have priority pass I don’t want order this grey color. I need black colour.
Does redmi note and redmi 1 s come with gorilla glass?
Yay gogi got the priority and have it ordered
I also ordered but not for me for a user in this site.. 🙂 i’ll be buying Mi4
That lucky user is me.. 😛
Wow! I came to know now that Both Xiaomi phones(MI3,Redmi 1s,etc) and Iphones(5s,etc) are manufactured by Premium Manufacturer FOXCONN….thats why MI3 Quality is TOP NOTCH 🙂
Gogi sir by checking reviews of Redmi 1S regarding RAM availability to user its come to know that it is between 138M – 300M. Is this ok for lag free multitasking?? What should be the avg. RAM should be available according to you?
I want to buy RedMi 1S, what are the reviews outside India? is it a good buy or Unite2 is better?
Can you please clear my doubt that Xiaomi is not coming with Kitkat 4.4? Their official page & Flipkart says 4.2.
Ordered the phone in under 40 seconds after the launch (Priority pass) 😀
Awesome!
Hey gogi any idea when the next batch will come and probably when it will come in black colour, the metallic grey colour does not look that good..
I watched the video and as you’ve said that flipkart is only providing mi3 in silver color. But, what if I want to buy this phone in black color.? Then from where should I buy it, please tell me. From where did you get this black colored 16 gb mi3.? Please do reply. I am desperate to know.
You will get it only via flipkart, for other colours you will need to wait.
Thank you for your valuable information. 🙂
pls tell me that redmi note coming with removable battery and andriod 4.4.2 kitkat.
Thats how Mi4 will look – http://assets.hardwarezone.com/img/2014/07/Xiaomi_Mi_4_News.jpg
If that’s Authentic It Will Be Good… Extremely Slim Bezels..
Xiaomi phones are great in specs as well in pricing. But one thing(the only thing) that made me disappointed is the SAR value its way too much.
Hi Vishnu,
How much more percentage is in comparison to MOTO G or other smartphones in this price range? Any idea pls throw us some light. so that I can decide whether to buy it or not?
Why gorilla glass is not there? So disappointing.
Gorilla Glass 3 is present.. confirmed by xiaomi on fb…
Flipkart is showing only one color option there for this xiaomi mi3 mobile i.e. metallic grey. Can they provide this mobile in black color?
Mi India
Hey Mi fans, for the Mi 3 it is not Gorilla Glass but it is made from a high grade glass material that is similar in quality. Gogi, the above reply is given by Mi India in their Facebook after persistent queries made by fans. Will u be able to tell what will be the screen made of.
I guess then it could be dragontail glass protection.
Redmi note is too big, does it come with removable battery.?
Yes it does.
Gogi, at last it is officially confirmed that mi3 does not come with gorilla glass https://m.facebook.com/comment/replies/?ctoken=1513799418834624_1513800788834487&ft_ent_identifier=1513799418834624&gfid=AQCXQnViIxe9vzF6
Well it may not be great deal breaker but the specs are clearer now
Idol x+ or mi3, one is octa core and other is quad core it seems.
Flipkart has updated the image of Mi3 sales.
Two points to note
1. The sales start from 22nd at 12 noon.
2. Limited stocks available.
Thats the poor Ram You will get in Redmi 1S – http://www.91mobiles.com/articles/wp-content/uploads/2014/07/Xiaomi-Redmi-1s-18.jpg
Well others are getting the review unit, I hope you will also get it soon.
Shashank, I don’t think they have sent, some have shot the video at the event (you can clearly make out), as for the benchmarks results they are already known.
I did read your post on MiPad launch delayed in India due to some import related issues. Do you have slightest of hint as to the launch of MiPad in India? Thanks and Regards.
Srijith, no idea, if you have noted there are hardly any tablets being launched with Wi-Fi only feature (no SIM slot), all the new tabs launched are with SIM slots and phone functionality.
This is really a good news for Indians. Waiting for your review gogi.
Got the priority pass. But cant buy the phone for now. Coz I am a student :D. Anyone want it?
