Xiaomi Redmi 4 is set to go on sale in India on Tuesday, and will be made available via Amazon and Mi.com. The smartphone is usually made available to buy on a weekly basis, with flash sales at 12pm IST. The same holds true this week, and it can be purchased in three RAM/ storage variants (2GB RAM/ 16GB storage, 3GB RAM/ 32GB storage, and 4GB RAM/ 64GB storage) and two colour variants (Black and Gold). Interested buyers do not need to register in advance, and just need to visit the respective store pages at 12pm.
The Xiaomi Redmi 4 price in India starts at Rs. 6,999 for the 2GB RAM/ 16GB storage variant, and goes up to Rs. 8,999 for the 3GB RAM/ 32GB storage variant, and Rs. 10,999 for the 4GB RAM/ 64GB storage variant. Amazon India has changed up the offers it has been offering for the past few weeks - the e-commerce site will give Xiaomi Redmi 4 buyers a free 12-month Hungama Music subscription; a free 3-month Hungama Play subscription; 30GB additional 4G data from Jio, and Rs. 200 promotion credit for Kindle books if you download and sign in to the Kindle app on your Redmi 4.
To recall, Xiaomi Redmi 4 model launched in India is actually the Redmi 4X that was launched in China back in February this year, and not the China variant of the Redmi 4 that was launched in November last year. With the move, Xiaomi brought the variant powered by the newer Snapdragon 435 SoC to the country, rather than the ageing Snapdragon 430 SoC on the original.
