Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 was launched in India at an event which was held in New Delhi with the price of Rs9,999 for the 16 GB variant and 32 GB variant was launched at the price of Rs 11,999.
The main feature of this phone is very interesting and that is the fingerprint sensor in it. It would be available in three basic colors and hat would be Gold, Silver, and Grey along with different variants.
I think the phone has been priced accurately according to its price range the features are also good while considering Redmi mobiles past performances.
Let's check out its features and specifications and then you decide whether this phone is for you or not.
Design
It looks most similar to Meizu devices and weighs 165 grams which makes it very lightweight handset for a phablet of that size. It is easy to hold in one hand and you can easily work with one hand on this device.
The edges are bit curvy and glossy with many color options available for the customers. So the design and color options are good for this phone.

People who love to work on a large screen will be happy with its 5.5-inch HD touch screen with a resolution of 1920 x 1080 pixel screen. The color reproduction is also good.

It is available with two storage options one is for 16GB ( with 2 GB RAM) model, out of which only 9.43 GB is available for the user and for 32GB the RAM is 3GB. The only difference between two is of Rs1000 so it is up-to you whether you want to go ahead with 16GB or 32GB.
Software
The phone is equipped with child mode option and runs on the latest MIUI 7.0. When you swipe downwards from the top of the screen you will find more notifications in it.
