Flipkart and Amazon's recent promotions in India further raised Xiaomi's regional profile, making us wonder if perhaps Samsung's domination is in danger.

Somehow, Xiaomi has done it again. China’s low-cost Android device champion returns to doing what it knows best after also hogging the local high-end spotlight, incredibly charging the measly equivalent of $103 (and up) for an all-metal, 2.5D curved 5-incher with fingerprint support.
The Xiaomi Redmi 4 substantially improves on its already impressive dirt-cheap predecessor in a number of key departments, looking extremely polished for that irresistible price point, packing at least Snapdragon 430 processing power, as well as 2GB RAM.
A standard configuration with the aforementioned specs, plus 16GB expandable storage, will go on sale next week at 699 Yuan, alongside a CNY 899 ($133) “high-end” variant upping the ante to a Snapdragon 625 SoC, 3GB RAM and 32GB ROM.
Both models promise to keep the lights on and on, thanks to 4,100 mAh battery capacity, while sporting 5-inch Full HD screen resolution, 13 and 5MP cameras, Android 6.0 Marshmallow with MIUI 8 atop, 8.9mm profiles, and 4G VoLTE connectivity.
But wait, there’s more, in case you want to pay even less. Namely, CNY 499, or roughly $74, for a non-fingerprint-reading Xiaomi Redmi 4A with HD display resolution, a Snapdragon 425 processor under the hood, 2GB RAM, 16GB local digital hoarding room, and 3,120 mAh battery. And we thought the Lumia 640 XL was a steal…

Xiaomi seems to have a big box-office winner on its hands in the high-end Mi Note 2, at least domestically, and however many (or few) “conceptual” Mi MIX units will hit e-store shelves later this month, they’ll no doubt sell out in a matter of seconds as well.
Still, the affordable, vast and non-experimental Redmi family of mid-range Android soldiers probably remains the ambitious OEM’s number one revenue generator, both in China and foreign markets like India, Malaysia or Singapore.
Released back at the very beginning of the year, the $100 or so Xiaomi Redmi 3 yielded several budget-focused spin-offs before finally prompting a full-on sequel. Let’s get ready to welcome the Xiaomi Redmi 4 on Chinese shores this coming Friday, November 4, metallic build, 5-inch Full HD display, octa-core Snapdragon 625 processor, fingerprint sensor and all.
Yes, believe it or not, this Tenaa-approved non-flagship device will apparently bump screen resolution up to 1,920 x 1,080 pixels, RAM and internal storage from 2 and 16GB to 3 and 32 respectively, retaining the massive 4,000 mAh or so battery of its predecessor while reportedly costing just 700 Yuan, or $104.
Impossible? We’ll obviously find out in under 48 hours, but with the edgeless Mi MIX’s introduction, Xiaomi has proven it knows not the meaning of that word.

Xiaomi has a Redmi series of smartphones that keeps the counter up on improvements to the budget line. Take, for example, the Redmi Pro from a few months ago — an OLED screen and a ten-core processor for just $225.At this point, we’re looking at a pretty decent-looking Redmi 4. Well, decent if you like looking at an Honor 5X from Xiaomi. But the specs aren’t ...
