The new Redmi phone announcement came from none other than the Xiaomi India vice president Manu Kumar Jain, who tweeted: “Announcing the launch of a new Redmi phone! This will be the 2nd BIG announcement of the month ☺️ Coming soon. Stay tuned #PowerInYourHand.”

 

Earlier in March, Xiaomi through its social media handle teased that ‘Successor to Redmi 3S is Coming’. Now, with the Redmi 4 waiting in the wings, it seems that Redmi 3S’s successful journey is coming to an end. At present, the Redmi 3s is priced at Rs 6,999 in India and Redmi 4 is likely to be launched for around the same price.
