Xiaomi launched the Redmi 4 smartphone in India last month, and now 30 days later, the company has announced that it has managed to sell as many as one million units of the Redmi 4 through flash sales and pre-orders. This is a huge milestone for the company, which has been breaking records ever since it started its journey in the country.

The Xiaomi Redmi 4 price in India starts at Rs. 6,999 for the variant with 2GB RAM and 16GB storage. The models with 3GB RAM and 32GB built-in storage is priced at Rs. 8,999, whereas the Redmi 4 variant with 4GB RAM and 64GB internal storage costs Rs. 10,999. The smartphone was sold on Amazon India and Mi.com via flash sales and pre-orders every week since its launch in May.

At the launch of the Redmi 4, Xiaomi had confirmed that it had managed to sell over 40 lakh units (4 million) of the Redmi 3S variants in India ever since their launch last year. This apparently made the Xiaomi Redmi 3S "highest selling smartphones online" in India, collectively. Furthermore, CEO Lei Jun had also confirmed last month that Xiaomi had managed to sell as many as 3 million units of the Xiaomi Mi Max ever since launch in China.
