What is online Price Xiaomi Redmi 1s?

Price: Rs. 5,999

How it Like ?

Design: Yeah, it’s a budget smartphone, but it’s sad that the Redmi 1s looks and feels like a budget smartphone. It’s heavy, it has big bezels that are a put-off, the screen is prone to fingerprint smudges, and the overall build quality feels cheap. But perhaps the biggest problem is the capacitive buttons under the screen. The red colour is a turn-off and looks childish. More importantly, they aren’t backlit, which means they are impossible to spot and use in a dark room. The Redmi 1s will get the job done, but it won’t look good doing it.

What type of Screen and resolution, is it full HD?

Screen: The 4.7-inch HD screen is, without a doubt, the best you get at this price. Plus, it has Dragontrail protection to keep away scratches on the glass. Sunlight legibility isn’t the best we have seen, but in this price range, it’s good enough.

What is specs combination and performance? 

Performance: The Redmi 1s is a satisfying experience, but not an excellent one. You’ll be able to play most games, but not at their highest graphics settings. You’ll be able to multi-task between apps, but once in a while, they do crash. None of it is a deal-breaker when you consider the price. But it is a little frustrating at times.

How man MP camera and what are other facilities in Camera?

Camera: For the first time, you get a budget phone with a camera that won’t make you cringe. Yes, you can safely use it in most situations and even low-lit environments. For comparison, the photos are as good as what you would get on the Samsung Galaxy Nexus or the iPhone 4.

How much internal Memory and expandable memory ?

Memory: Unlike other sub-10k phones, there are no compromises with the 8GB internal memory of the Redmi 1s. App installations aren’t a problem, and the microSD card can take care of all your extra space requirements. It can expandable up to 64 GB.

What type of Google Android interface?

Interface: Xiaomi’s custom Android interface, called MIUI, customizes the operating system so it doesn’t really look like Android. Nonetheless, it’s easy to use and works well. Considering that this low-cost phone might be ideal for those new to Android, Xiaomi has also made a “Lite Mode” for the MIUI. Essentially, this simplifies Android by turning oft-used apps into large tiles, adding a “Quick Contacts” pane, and increasing the font. It’s the kind of stuff that would make Android easy for parents and others new to smartphones.

What type of batter and how its battery performance?

Battery: The 2000mAh battery of the Redmi 1s lasts for about 14 hours of usage on a single charge, which is not bad, but not excellent. It’ll go for a little over 5 hours of pure video playback. It’s good enough. What’s annoying is the time it takes to charge. From 5% to 100% took over 2.5 hours, which is far too long.

How to buy Xiaomi Redmi 1s? is it really difficult to buy ?

Special Mention: Xiaomi’s flash sale model means that the Redmi 1s has the same problem as the Xiaomi Mi3. It’s the best phone you can buy at this price, but actually buying it from Flipkart—the only retailer—requires a combination of patience and luck. It shouldn’t be this hard to buy a phone.

For starters the phones are super easy to use thanks to an interface that makes the menus and access to applications a lot more practical. Keen observers also say they appreciate the hardware specifications, which are often found in devices that sell for much higher prices. The budget Redmi S1  is comparable to other international brands both from the hardware side and the software ecosystem.. Its very (good) value. The Redmi also has a faster processor, which allows games and other applications to run more smoothly; better front and rear cameras, and a slightly larger screen than similar but more expensive phones, such as Motorola’s mid-range Moto G. It  like Moto G but with more options. You can change the battery and add a memory card. The Moto G has no replaceable battery, no storage expansion option, and a single SIM-card slot instead of two. The phone’s replaceable battery is also a strong point.  Xiaomi’s choice of sales channel however is a concern to some buyers, and could frustrate some distribution partners itching to sell the phones through their retail stores.
