First impressions: Xiaomi's Redmi 2 has a new OS, faster processor and at Rs 6999 is sure to be a hit Tech2 Mobile
The company, which entered the Indian smartphone market only in 2014 and that too with nearly year-old products, has managed to carve a space for itself in the Indian market, with a serious fan following. A testament to this fact is that, according to IDC, Xiaomi is now number five in the Indian smartphone market in Q4 of 2014 with a 4 percent market share
Redmi 2 is Xiaomi’s successor to its earlier budget smartphone, the Redmi 1S. The biggest changes in this smartphone from the earlier version are: design, 4G connectivity and a faster processor.
The Redmi 2 will follow the flash sale model on Flipkart (registrations start today at 6 pm) and it will go on sale on 24 March. Xiaomi says that 30-40,000 units will go on sale and it is hoping to move the Redmi 2 to a regular sale model that won’t require registration any longer.
