Flipkart and Xiaomi will be selling 40000 Redmi 1S units come this Tuesday, that’s on September 2, with the hope of leaving behind the drama over the Mi 3 order cancellations. This will be the very first time that the smartphone hits India and considering its price as well as the hype surrounding the brand presently, we can picture a few more flash sales for it in the future.
The first stock of 40000 phones should come as a wee bit of relief to fans eager to purchase the Xiaomi Redmi 1S seeing as the company has been releasing its Mi 3 in small batches of 10000 to 20000 through Flipkart in India. When it launched the upcoming budget Android handset in Singapore on July 15, it only had 5000 units to offer enthusiastic buyers.
The Redmi 1S is priced at Rs 5999, a price that’s sure to undercut competitors which are currently in the form of the Asus ZenFone 4 A450CG and Moto E, both costing Rs 6999. Even if it wasn’t for the Rs 1000 difference, the Xiaomi phone would still be comparatively impressive for a low-end one.
The phone comes with a quad core Snapdragon processor and a 4.7-inch HD display. It works on 1GB RAM and has 8GB of onboard memory. In case this falls short of your hoarding requirements, there’s always the microSD card slot for adding up to 64GB of extra space.
