Besides the Mi 3, Xiaomi also unveiled the Redmi Note and Redmi 1S for the Indian market. Both devices are cheaper and less powerful than the Mi 3 but offer a never seen before value-for-money.

On the other hand, the Redmi 1S features a 4.7-inch 720p IPS display, a quad-core 1.6GHz Cortex-A7 processor, 1GB of RAM, a 2000mAh battery, an 8MP shooter at the rear and a 1.6MP camera in the front. Both these devices run on Android 4.3 Jelly Bean with MIUI v5 on top of it.
