The two smartphones storage variants are touted to be called Redmi 3A and Redmi 3S. The smartphones feature a 5-inch HD (720x1280 pixels) LCD display, and an octa-core processor clocked at 1.4GHz paired with 2GB of RAM, and Adreno 405GPU. The inbuilt storage on the two smartphones is said to be 16GB and 32GB, which can be further expanded via a microSD slot (up to 128GB).

It is expected to sport a 13-megapixel rear camera and an 8-megapixel front camera. The Xiaomi Redmi 3A/ 3S are expected to run on Android 6.0.1 Marshmallow, and may pack 4000mAh battery. It is said to come with dimensions 139.3x69.6x8.5mm and weigh 143 grams. Connectivity options to include 4G LTE, Bluetooth, and Wi-Fi support.
