Xiaomi recently started teasing the arrival of a new Redmi Note 8 colour variant with a purple gradient finish. Well, the company has now made the new shade of Redmi Note 8 official, and it is called Cosmic Purple. To be precise though, the colour variant was already teased around the time of the smartphone's India launch last month. The Redmi Note 8's Cosmic Purple avatar is quite similar to the phone's Nebula Purple colour variant that was launched in China recently. In addition to the official reveal, Xiaomi has also announced that the Redmi Note 8's Cosmic Purple colour variant will go on sale starting November 29 in India.

The official Redmi India Twitter handle officially lifted the covers from the Redmi Note 8's Cosmic Purple via a tweet earlier today, accompanied by a short product video. The first sale of Redmi Note 8 flaunting the new paintjob will be conducted on November 29 and it is scheduled to start at 12pm (noon) IST. It will be available from both Mi.com and Amazon in India. The Redmi Note 8 Cosmic Purple variant's first sale will coincide with the start of Xiaomi's Black Friday Sale, which is set to start on November 29 and will go through December 2.
