Xiaomi Redmi 3 - User Reviews

  • Using since 2016. Was lagging so I installed AOSP based rom on it and some mods now it's smooth. But still poor storage r/w performance due to usage and the main visible problem is the display corners became washed out and getting worse over time. Memory cards don't work anymore. Oh and most annoying problem is the wifi system has degraded so much that it slows down and becomes unusable...needs reboot every now and then Well it served me well enough.

  • I have been using the device since 2016.worked it very good and smoothly. all in sudden while open SIM slot to change sim card the phone become off and its now don't become on.But if call to the number ring going on but the phone seems dead. what the hell it is!!!

  • thats sad. I've been using it for more than 3 years. Still working fine. Though the sound is low now.

  • same here. But dont say like that. Love the device

  • My Second Xiaomi Device Other Than Xiaomi Note. Pretty Good Device Snapdragon 616 Better Then My MI4I, I Think I Sold This Around Early 2017.......... Wasted!

  • my IR the infrared stopped to work and cant command tv anymore, all was ok with mi remote, and suddenly stopped.. anyone have this experience and some advice how to fix it..

  • Bought in April 2016 and still until now. Don't understand why it isn't broken yet. I can't buy a new one cause its still in a good perform 😂😂😂&#128­514;

  • 2 Gigabytes of ram is enough though

  • THIS PHONE IS REALLY SUPERB FOR ITS PRICE! Been using it since Feb 2016. Was getting laggy, but no more since I update it into MIUI 9.5. Was changing the OS into the global version and works better than before. The build quality is very good since I dropped it quite much, and the screen never breaks until last August. Sadly, I lost it during my recent trip. What a memorable phone.

  • Hi! how about 2GB RAM? is it enough?

  • Phone is really good, I have gold version, very elegant, camera is excellent, battery was beast, 9-10 days, but suddenly stopped to work over night, change it with opening the phone but new one also works only 3 maximum 4 days what is half it had worked, don't know whats the problem, probably calibration needed but non calibration program is good..

  • I have it almost 2 years, bought in november 2016. Excellent battery, lack of space if you use 2 sim cards. When you have less than 2 GB of memory left it slows a bit. So, use this phone with one SIM card or throw out of phone all unnecesarry photos, video clips and similar data if you use it with 2 SIM cards. I will buy it again becose I move all photos and clips on Xiaomi cloud to clear the phone.

  • still best body size phone with good battery. all newer phones expect that my fingers have grown few centimeters taller.

  • How is your experience with it? I can see there is version 14.1 now

  • i thought of buying this phone back then .. but the store said it is out of stock .. so i took 3S prime instead ..

  • Change your ROM to LineageOS 14

  • My android version is 5.1.1 LMY47V and MIUI Global 9.5.2.0

  • what is your Android version???

  • I bought Redmi 3 in November 2016 in Macedonia. Most of the apps were very slow or were crashing. I was constantly receiving ads, during every use of Internet. I never received update although I was using MIUI 7. However I found out that I was not using official software from MI, so I gave the phone to the official dealership in Macedonia, Hi Store and they installed new official software, so now I have MIUI 9.5. The phone works perfectly as a new one and I only regret that I didn't installed new software previously. Check your software, maybe that is your problem. This phone is a steal for the money.

  • please how can I upgrade my os from 5.1.1 to 6.0.1

  • I've been using this phone several 2 years and i'm so in love with it. till one day i lost it :(

  • i have still 8.2 version, how did you update to 9 ?

  • Updated to MIUI 9 global, works perfectly.

  • using MIUI 7 or MIUI8?

  • Using this phone since 2016 and still smooth and working perfectly.

  • did you success update to miu9 ? any error ? please reply, thx

  • I'm using this device since 2016. Still working smoothly. MIUI has awesome interface & features. Just love it..

  • I've been using this phone for around a year now and honestly, it's killing me. I am unable to use apps such as Facebook, Snapchat, Google Maps or even Chrome (even with just one tab open) without it heating up and crashing with every 5 seconds of use. Recently, it froze and restarted while I was trying to answer a phone call. This is with no other apps open! Anyway, if you don't want a phone that freezes and restarts randomly (at least for me), don't get this phone.

  • Bought it 1 year ago, installed MIUI Global, now MIUI 9 Global Beta 7.9.15 ROM because of default ads and apps when I purchased the phone. But after that, it's an excellent phone. Good performance, runs apps nicely (games as well in AA), no bugs, camera is good for the price, lots of info in phone, lots of apps you might need like weather that uses accuweather and integrates nicely, converters, systems scanners and storage space freeing apps, torch, virus scanner, you don't really need any tool apps, all default and easy on resources and not in your face or showing as notifications or ads. Very good and bright display light, battery is still very good after a year. Only annoyance is, if you use a lot of apps then storage space will not be enough. You can solve this with SD card, but then I think you lose one SIM slot, which I personally couldn't afford. For nicer UI, I use ZenUI launcher and togher with the MIUI all looks very nice. And is cheap. Recommended.

  • this is the best phone I have ever had great camera and a good chipset

  • I have mi redmi 3 scenic one year back today i updated after that the phone not working

  • This phone is my dream, i like that

  • Purchased online redmi3s and after six months found that there is a very serious problem in charging and all the photos and videos taken during our tour lost. Approached the authorised local servicing centre at Kottayam our nearest place for four continuous days and still the problem remains. It is always better one buys less costly one so that even if face problem purchase a new one

  • my phone cannot connect to network , it seem the connection is changed when I updated the phone..how can I handle this problem

  • Have been using this phone for one and a half year. Pretty good for its price. Battery can last about 2 days with normal usage (browse internet a few hours, casual gaming, several calls and messages). Never have any issue with dual sim card. However, the device can easily get hot while playing games, especially if you are using casing. It's also occasionally laggy while playing games with big filesize (200 - 300MB), and some games with really big filesize (500MB or more) has been crashing quite a lot. If you plan to play a lot of heavy duty games, I don't recommend this phone, otherwise it's pretty solid.

  • I've been using this phone for 1 year now. No problem at all. I bought this phone on 29/5/2016. Within a week, I changed to custom ROM, Cyanogenmod 12.1 by nehz. still using this awesome rom until this day. i know there are a lot of latest custom rom available but this rom seem already good for me. no heating, no battery problem, no lag, no bullshit from stock xiaomi. sometimes i forgot that im actually using xiaomi phone lol

  • i brought this phone from china when released, one big issue is lagging (slow) when you connect wifi , memory is 16GB but 6GB used for software only 10GB remained, slow mobile, do not recommend

  • i got this phone just 11 months it lost service ,it is showing no service it is a bad product i dont like this i showed this in service they said to change mother board of cost max 7000 why should i pay that munch my phone is gold color jsz 11000 i can get a new phone instead of this ............very very bad product...useless...why should pay that much for mother board and jsz not working for the network service.....useless phone

  • i've been use this phone for long and work fine , smooth but sometimes lagging when open facebook app and one is make me disappoint , the internal is 16gb but only 10.96gb can be used , very worse

  • What solutions u taken on that problem

  • Hey..... Android isn't affected by any malware..... It's made of linux..... It may be the apps that might be collaborated with add sites.... So uninstall them..... No antivirus needed

  • with money

  • sudden area GPS cannot detected. Change my sim to other phone no issue at all... I been searching around all the way to fix it. Still same cannot fix it.

  • my phone Redmi 3 does not connect to any Wi-Fi. resetting the phone might be an option but I cannot log out of my mi account without Wi-Fi. what do I do?

  • I want this phone How i ..........buy this phone ?

  • Your phone probably got an adwareor trojan in it. Basedon the sites or apps you download in the pho d. So you need to download an app to get rid of it. Delete the app that help you get rid of it and wipe out the phone to factory reset. Ofcourse you have to make sure you back up your data. However, becarefulbe cause trojans and adwares can go into yohr date to encrypt. I had to reset the phone without backing up any data to get my redmi 3 working back perfectly fine. I be careful with the apps I download and I have not had a problem since. I have my phone for a year and a month now.

  • It is good. I purchased it as a gift for my friend and yet no complaints. Battery life, camera is good.

  • The redmi 3 has the best camera from the other two. I purchased all three and the redmi 3 is the best. In battery life they are all good. Phone dont overheat with heavy use because I am using this phone(redmi 3) for a year now and honestly I have no bad reviews at all.

  • Hi, you need to go to the phone adjusts, there is a option that allows to answer your calls automatically, you need to desactivate it, go to config, type up in the browser phone and select system apps/ phone, and go down where is auto answer

  • I have had a Samsung Galaxy J5 for one year and was very dissappointed. overheating occured many times. I bought a Xiaomi Redmi3 and are very happy with it.

  • There is no separate slates for 2sims and SD card.it is inconvinent to expsntion of ROM capacity.due to this it acts as single sim mobile

  • The best phone for 110€. Running 7.1 Nougat as we speak. Great dev community behind this. Anik_Khan as the main contributor. He make the device awesome. Just unlock the bootloader load up cm14.1 and go!

  • Xiaomi can you also make a version of this one with removable battery? I will exchange my fingerprint sensor with removable battery. What I know is that battery dont last that is why I still recommend to have a removable battery.

  • It is disappointing that update miui8, the memory shows 7GB some thing

  • ----Unlock Bootloader---- 1) Get permission first >> 2) Wait until received confirmation message through your mobile phone 3) Download Redmi 3 Latest China Developer Version Fastboot File here >> 4) Read >> replace step 2 with fastboot file downloaded above^ 5) Login your Mi Account on your phone 6) Continue steps here >> ----Flash CWM Recovery---- 1) Follow instructions here >> Lastly, flash Custom ROM You can find a lot of Custom ROM here -> Im currently using this ROM since June, smooth and stable :

  • Thnx for the info

  • Sadly, I purchased this brand new phone "Xiomi Redmi 3S PRIME" 3 days ago, and from the very second day..i noticed hanging issue in this phone and it has happened to me 5-10 times that after having conversation, i tried to disconnect the ongoing call by pressing "end call" button multiple times and it wasn't getting disconnected. It's not suppossed to be happen in brandnew phones.It's so FRUSTATING..that you spent so much money on a phone and you get phone with hanging issues. If this is the condition of phone on 3rd day..which has started hangingat the very beginning.How can we expect this phone to work smoothly for a couple of years. I'm very disappointed..feels like CHEATED

  • how to flash custom rom, kindly guide

  • yes

  • Can u tell me?.. #Redmi 3s support OTG.. thatz help we use #pendrive..

  • Why i am purches readmi s3. This phon user fasing many probalam in just 1-2 months.

  • What isssu

  • Please check whether you're using 3rd party rom (unofficial / modified rom) or official global stable rom. If your redmi 3 use 3rd party rom, you might faced those problem as you've described. Redmi 3 available only in China market without global rom been announced at the time it launched. Now the official global stable rom was available to download and flash your redmi 3. Please try unbrick / flash your redmi 3 and try the new MIUI 8.

  • Try using another PC, it doesn't work with my PC too but able to copy with another PC

  • I bought this phone a couple months ago. This phone is disappointing. First of all, the camera sucks. I thought the 13mp would be good But it isn't. Second of all, this phone often heats up. I don't know how to say it But i guess you could call it 'thermal throttle' . Third, the performance isn't good epecially 3d games. There is another case, when i plugged in the charger, the performance of the phone is slowed down. But when i unplugged it, it is back to normal. The only thing i can appreciate is battery life. It is quite satisfying. To anyone who wonders about Buying this phone or not, i would recommend you to not buy it. Just buy anything else. Now im traumatized to use redmi phones. If you ever wanna buy phone from xiaomi, i would suggest to buy "mi" versions

  • I am using 32gb memmory card in my redme 3s.but when connecting it to the commputerdata trnsfer mode not working.showing redme 3s in computer but by clicking its blank.. pl help

  • I am thinking between Xiaomi Redmi 3 and Samsung J5(2015). Which one do you think it is better for the money? In Macedonia the both phones are in similar price range. Redmi 3 has better specifications, but so far I haven't used Xiaomi phone, so I am not sure if it is going to work better than the Samsung.

  • I want to buy this handset . to the user , if u face any complaint in the period of 1 year?

  • Good,, and VOLTE support also

  • gud joke

  • How to turnoff Popup adds ? its very annoying..!!

  • how about 4g network if iuse jio sim.in redmi 3

  • Yes

  • It has update for MIUI8. I'm using Redmi3 with MIUI8 right now.

  • No it actually can, just not all games, for example some games might get really laggy not because the phone has reached its limit but sometimes it's the games' fault that they're not optimized for all devices, most well-known games run just well with this phone, unless the problem is not the lag on some games but its internal size (I have to admit it's pretty tight, should've grabbed Redmi 3x instead)

  • Is it true.. Even if i wanna play online games it doesnt work out great.. ? Is there any problems issue for the phone if we play games.. ??

  • I'm using two sim cards in my redmi 3. For another sim card, i just cut it into small size (chip size).

  • need an update of miui8...

  • is otg supported?????

  • If i use import set for this fone can get update ota or not?

  • No

  • redmi 3s have 4g network

  • Yes, update to MUI8 happens seamless - just takes a bit of time to complete.

  • Which phone should i buy? Redmi 3, Mi 4c or Mi 4?

  • phone's performance is nice for using Internet. good battery life, but sometimes camera showing errors

  • Has anybody tried to use two sim cards+an sd card with Redmi 3s Prime? I watched the videos on how to use the same in Redmi Note 3 and it seems to work fine. The slot on Redmi 3s Prime may be smalller than Redmi Note 3 because I cannnot insert the two sims and an sd card with one of the sims attached to the sd card. I ruined my airtel sim and the sd card in the process. Has anybody tried the same trick on Redmi 3s prime?

  • Not recommended for gamers.

  • Best phone at it's price class. Battery works great, 40 hours in normal use (internet, music, messaging, videos, etc), and still remaining 20%. So satisfied with the PDAF feature of the camera.

  • all fine, GPS works great. Battery life is the best I've seen.

  • In this phone GPS works fine? I use that much and its important to me. Battery life is good too? Thanks

  • Samsung on7 4sure

  • Mine too..its bad anyway.well u can resell it baby..

  • This is the worst phone I have ever used. Camera, does not work downloaded another one. still cuts off when I want to use it. Maps, phone shuts down when trying to look places up (Always know where you are going this phone will let you down). Shuts off 20 or more times a day. So many things on this phone are just plain bad. By the time you spend good money on this phone that does not work you could have bought a really good Samsung phone.

  • i already use this phone for 2 months and it work great. no lag. re boot or error in touchscreen.i play 'heavy'games without problem. battery is great. it's good

  • Agreed by Victory.....

  • Very dissappointed with the phone. It really kills the overall experience of the smartphone if you've used other phones like HTC, samsung, apple etc. The phone's wifi hotspot stops working all of a sudden and doesn't respond at all. It freezes too often and you can't run more than 2 apps smoothly. If you're texting on messanger and you need to go to gallery, you're in trouble. They've tried to pack so much useless features in such a low end phone and none of them work proplery. For example the age detection on front camera. It's a total misery. I've been using this phone for 2 months now. The only good thing is it's battery life which is very impressive. It boasts max of 1.5Ghz quad core processor. Wait a sec, that ain't help at all if your software is all buggy and doesn't know how to handle priorities. The phone goes to low power mode all of a sudden for no reason and I've there looking at the screen and waiting for it to respond to a button. Also the 4G has a huge problem. Say you're streaming something. 50% of the time it's working great. You're happy and loving the phone and when you're in the middle of the streaming the network stops responding and you're ditched all the way in to the whole. I do not recommend this phone.

  • Please understand - This is a budget smartphone and you will not get a condition as a luxury smartphone.

  • Already owned Redmi 3 since 4 month ago for my daughter, but I trial use for 1 month and what can I say - 1.Best ever battery lifespan. 2.no issue as they mentioned before (reboot/wifi/connection). 3.Better photo quality in normal condition(enough light). But there is a little bit of issue - 1.Whatsapp will not receive msg if you fully close the app. Solution - Need to open & just home.Don't close the whatsapp. 2.Microphone not clear for recording video or audio. 3.Worst image quality if use flash for photo or video(Pink/red image). 4.Video image nice but the movement got a little cracks. 5.Facebook via browser mode - During typing comment,Comment box will block by keypad when enter 2nd rows. 6.Touch screen too sensitive. While scrolling,sometimes the story/subject/title which my finger touch on will appear but actually I'm scrolling. But if you use for several days, you will understand and accept.

  • New delhi

  • i want purchase redmi 3 please suggest me

  • Is it supports 4G Indian band?

  • OTG works

  • Well idk about Lenovo, just remember to always look at the opinions and watch reviews on youtube. And if you plan on rooting your phone or replacing the rom with a Cyanogenmod version, look that up in advance if it exists. I made a mistake and didn't do that with my LG Optimus L7 II I got 3 years ago. Anyway, I'm looking to buy Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 Prime. Its around 150-160$, has removable battery, sd card, and all the other things I'm looking for. Seems to be hard to find one in my country (Serbia) though... You can tell if its prime or not by the processor. Prime has 2.2ghz and regular has 2.0ghz. Also Prime gpu is clocked on 700mhz and regular on 500mhz, even tho its the exact same gpu.

  • Yeah I thought thought about that phone but it's more expensive and I don't have much money.... But thanks for advice everyone :) Phone with similar price I could buy is Lenovo vibe k5 PLUS But it has much worse battery. What do you think?

  • The battery is non removable! Avoid those phones as much as you can for as long as you can. Sure its great but over time they all worsen, and you can't replace them. By the time it worstens the servicing won't support that phone anymore. And finding and replacing non removable batteries alone isn't easy. But the worst thing about non removable is actually the fact that when your phone freezes you cant pop the battery to turn it off. You're stuck or left with taking it to the service so they do it. So if you're on a trip and that happens it'll suck... Even if you're just out in town and it happens. So my advice look for phones with removable batteries. If you want Xiaomi, i think Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 has removable. Similar name except this has "Note" in it. :P

But this phone is a total wastage. really really wastage. my phone is now very slow. it takes several minutes to load phone box sometimes. but the battery is really good, that is the only reason for me to still use this. my opinion is never buy this one.

  • Mediatek chipset version available???

  • Heyy guyzz hw s ths

  • It is not good phone. In hardly 2 months it started hanging up, malfunctioning, opening different different apps on its own, not getting power off in that case of erratic functioning. You cant power off by button nor by ejecting battery which is non removable. I wasted my money believing it to be a good buy in gimmick-sale.

  • why.. i cant play with my vr headset.... that gyro can run when without vr headset... but.. when it insert.... that gyro... move so bad....

  • A great phone that you will love it so much.. no other phone can beat this little one at its price range.. battery life up to 3 days. From the outlook and performance all are great. Just the charging time may takes some time but if u using original xiaomi power bank it will be faster like 1% per minute.. another thing are the aluminum body.. its look cool but once u drop it it will leave a mark.. but also have a lot of solutions to avoid it (e.g: use silikon case)

  • A tray three diferent headphone and don't work.What headphone work?

  • Had the Redmi 3 for 3 months and have had no problems. the camera takes very good pictures and I am very pleased not to have listened to the IPhone fans. If you haven't got the hundreds of pounds for an IPhone you could do a lot worse than buy this one for around £130 from UK dealers. By the way my previous two mobiles were IPhones which were no better than theXiaomi Redmi 3.

  • buy an iphone 5s

  • Redmi 3 or Xperia M4 Aqua or Huawei P8 lite?

  • redmi note 3 very bad camera quality, phone has very heating problem , phone's hardware is not so powerful functions are good but not perform well overall do not buy it go for lenovo vibe k4 note, meizu m3 note and coolpad too .

  • Will this work with tmobile in usa?

  • Mostly phones of m.i specially redmi 3, note 3 ,note 3 pro...all have one common problm that is s.d card slot..in these days evryone uses dual sim nd s.d card than why m.i phons provide hybrids sim slot for both uses sim or s.d card......using one sim slot for s.d the phones becomes single sim then why u says m.i phons r dual sim .....it just a cheat with us ....only no s.d card slot specily for s.d card is a major issue with these phones

  • How is it the company's fault that they don't make every single phone of theirs to match your desired features?

  • It ships for 135 dollars man.. you wont get anyting like it at that price point.. I think It is a smart set of specs, big battery + low resolution screen is awesome! I was looking for it.. of course, if you need 2 slots.. its not for you! I've broken and scrached more gorilla glasses than I can count so I dont value it one bit. get a screen protector, a good case and you are good to go. this MIUI would take some getting used although... btw the pro is 180, with 32gb / 3gb ram and finger scanner

  • No dual sim. It uses second sim slot for as card. Low PPI. No gorilla glass. Apps can not be moved to SF card in xiaomi phones. A big no for this phone.

  • Is the +$30 worth to pay for features of Redmi3 Pro? Any opinions? Is Pro using newer sensor chipsets?

  • Nope

  • how did you find out that the battery has 2000mAh ? Regarding RAM ... 800Mb are available, do you mean 800Mb are free with the stock firmware ?

  • battery shows 2000mah. 2 gb ram, but usable only 800 mb..... not protective glass given,hybrid card slot..... bad decision if u want to buy

  • i have aquestion, can i use mobile data in both sims at the same time?

  • What? Have hybrid sim - sure, but have latest Android too...miui 8 comming, dear newbie in miui world :)

  • If the phone features is 1) no duel sim work togerther with sd slot. 2) no gorila glass protechtion. 3) no full hd display resulation. 4) no fringer print sensor. 5) no leatest version android os.. this is big fault of company.

  • Why root it? Use the OTG feature.

  • Have you see any test that prove it?

  • phone is fine but problem comes when if there is any problem with ur device mi has got the worst customer service ever u can imagine for the god sake dont buy this from offficial mi site if u recieve defective piece u have to deal with it no refund only once replacement it has been such a pain using this phone performance is awesome but service is horrible i prefer to go for lenovo or any others which provide good customer service .. p.s: for the love of god plz plz dont buy this phone from mi site its the worst experience of my entire life ..and i finally decided not to use any smart phone in my life.

  • Using this device about 3 months. I had a 1,4 GB free RAM when it's loaded first time. Now It's only 1-1,2 GB with all apps I need installed. Not the perfect device for games, but my Heartstone experience is good enough. Battery size is AMAZING. I had a 11 hour session in Heartstone and it took only 2/3 of charge. IMO it's perfect device for that price. I really like it.

  • This phone everything saved in hidden file. How can I change this?

  • Yes OTG is supported

  • I've been using this phone for almost a week now. My review: Pros: -Screen is very beautiful, sharp and I really like it -Speaker is quiet loud -Battery life is amazing. I play music, watch video, browse the internet using chrome and I got around 9 hour On Screen Time. I never try playing game with it though so I can't really tell much how the battery life is for gaming. Cons: -Camera is average -RAM management is really bad. I only got around 350 MB free memory out of 2GB RAM even after I free the running apps. -Stock MIUI is really really slow. Opening apps and multitasking is such a pain in the ass As conclusion, I really enjoy using this phone mainly because of its giant battery. I am currently waiting for approval to unlock bootloader of my phone. Soon, I'm gonna try Cyanogenmod 12.1 and I'm sure this phone will become buttery smooth + lag free. For those out there who are still thinking whether to grab this phone or not, please buy it and I assure you won't regret your purchase. This is the best phone you can get in this price range.

  • I got this phone for my mum, as it is mid range. First day and I testes working ability and it is okay smooth. I have droid turbo myself and I would say they feel the same. Its a fairly good looking phone with big battery and it does support fast charging and it comes with 2amp charger. It took me 80 minutes to charge it from 50% to 100%. I asume it takes around 130-140min to charge it 4100mah battery from 0% to 100%. Which is great and same time as mine droid turbo that has 3900mah. Will post and update battery during light to medium daily usage.

  • There has a tutorial on YouTube how to put two sim and microsd together and all work perfect.

  • So why it's written in the box that it's made in India ?

  • Yes, I bought it first and then I read the review. I wanted my privat-SIM and my work-SIM in the same cellphone. But to have 16 MB isn´t enough. But I look forward to have it. It seems like a very good mobile

  • How did you unlock the bootloader?root and multi language rom? Pls

  • @ Anonymous, I think you didn't read the reviews to well because it was clearly there tou can use 2 sim cards or 1 simcard and 1 micro sd. I bought this phone for my wife and she is very pleased with it, no problems at all. It is working fine now with unlocked bootloader, root and stable multilanguage rom. Great phone and lots of phone for less money, 2 thumbs up for this one.

  • I agree... I have used this phone almost same time with u there isn't serious problem but little warm when open internet data n play game in long time. The main disadventages is i could'nt used my 2 slot sim card together with my memory card. I have to choose 1

  • I can say that there's no problem in 4G connection. Yet, but I experienced in the 4G connection turning off but it happened in some cases not often just, so far its connection good.

  • What about using the audioplayer to listen to audiobooks? Does it work (start at the same place, sleep-turn-off etc etc)? Or is it best to download an app för Audiobook?

  • I have notice that there are NOT 2 sim-card-slot if you also want to use microSD-memorycard. It seems like I have to use Slot-2 for the memorycard. That it is not good - not good at all. My first reason to buy the Readme3 was the 2 SIM-slots. I wanted 2 SIM-slots AND use of memorycard very dissapointed

  • Is anyone having problems with 4g connection?

  • I didnt ask

  • Man just buy the phone on EBay, why not?

  • Is There is any other option to buy?

  • when is this phone launching in malaysia?? why is xiaomi taking soo long

  • i buy this mobile very soon

  • First of all I bought this phone for a particular reason, for the battery of course. The phone is beautiful, powerful, it has some lags sometimes. I don't think it has gorrila glass. I think is something else, but with 5euro you can buy five or more screen protectors so it's ok. I want to explain someone to me that why to root the phone and if someone has change the rom what did you install and how it looks with the other rom. It is faster than Mui 7 or not.

  • is this gorrila glass

  • I buy yesterday. Today I root my Redmi 3. This great for me. I recommend to everybody. As the years have gone by the Xiaomi has become a product that people only buy because of the name cheaper and powerfull. Not only does Samsung have the Android Market and Google Play, but it is by far much less complex. While the has a much better processor, camera, battery life, and everything to do with a phone.

  • china ...... very few smartphone are being made in india ... even micromax does not manufacture all its phone in india ..... maximum phones of the world are manufacture in china

  • baterry is good?

  • Is Redmi 3 manufacture in India or China ?

  • that's not even huge problems..

  • My 3months of use of this Redmi3... 1. Camera - above average like 8.5 out of 10. almost good as zenfone 2 551ml. 2. UI - 9/10 coming from an iPhone and zenfone 2 user. doesn't hangup but not a multitasking beast as zenfone2. 3. RAM - 8/10. its only 2GB but the UI and Android 5.1.1 is well handled by that amount of ram. 4. GPU - 8/10. Run games like NFSMW smoothly. bit of lags while NFS no limit but its playable. 5. Display - 9/10. very good display. its IPS as per GSMARENA but renders like AMOLED display. 6. Battery - 9.7/10. as in you can't kill it in 1day of usage with wifi and data always on. I bought this phone because of the battery endurance and I'm very satisfied with it. The upper back part warms a bit when charging and warms a bit more if your playing with data on and hotspot on. 7. Handling - 8/10. well built phone and nice touch of diamond pattern on the back but its a very slippery one. Im checking out for one now at gearbest.com coz i might drop it 1day. 8. Others - dual sim is fine, although I'm using the sim slot 2 for memory expansion. 64GB works fine. earpiece loud and clear, loudspeaker is very good too. If your planning to buy go ahead and don't hesitate. I suggest to buy a case and a screen protector together. I'm planning to buy that redmi3 pro next.

  • is this true?? because thats a long time

  • Awesome graphic......

  • So far 1 month use this phone so good Camera is amazing, otg support 32 gb use sandisk 3.0. Battery is awesome too. If your phone lag, or not responding when open app. I recommend to root this phone, it's very easy. It's become so smooth and no more laggy. Then you can manage auto start app.

  • Huge problem in the device... 1) no full hd. 2) no headphone comes with the device. 3) duel sim in which sim1 slot sharing with micro sd card slot. 4) no fringer print sensor. 5) phone's network brandwith speed slow compare with others phone.

  • 22th June ...

  • thats taking a lot of ram..no wonder miui sucks

  • Yes It supports CDMA,Specially Reliance CDMA(data,SMS,call...) ...but dont update the phone..And calls are perfect on TATA CDMA but no Data

  • Is this phn OTG supported??

  • that's normal, because your phone has miui so it will consume more ram, but you don't have to worry about performance

  • im just planning to get this one... what kind of laggy?

  • Can anyone tell me about RAM? In my phone RAM 879MB of 2GB Available

  • I would like to know about SAR Rating of Redmi 3.

  • Can u send some images taken by the rear camera of your redmi phone

  • Its battery life is really insane..it just goes on and on and on..craaazy!!!

  • Redmi 3 is amazing. Every component is good, but the spakers is bad. I think xiaomi should fix it!

  • It takes almost 3.5 hrs to get fully charged. But within 1 hr, it will be around 40%. Happy with its overall performance. I am now posting this by my redmi 3 device. Both cameras are really good. Bro, Don't hasitate long.. get & grab it as quickly as possible.

  • It's really amazing. Good performance in low light conditions also.

  • hows it camera performance???????????

  • this is a super phone for its price, i'm realy happy with it. also if your screen or glass is broken it is 4 times less expensive than a samsung or iphoney to replace it.

  • how long it takes to charge fully? how is the camera experience for you?

  • how about the front cam bro?

  • I have purchased it from GHz, Basundhara City. I'm a moderate user, but I'm happy with its performance. Its endurance time almost 2 days for me.

  • These reseller instllaed play store without my consent.anywys how do i go back to chinese rom.plz tell me

  • i want to buy xiomi redmi 3

  • The first time I bought it, I never tried to verify the authenticity of this phone to boot the wrong way fast.. so when the pictures come out a rabbit as I see in google , my phone did not loading so stuck .. luckily at the time the mobile phone successfully revived. What do you think my battery strange way because the error at that time? :(

  • thanks for explanation .. sorry for my bad grammar .. I 've given more time in charging the battery as you say, but the battery is only used for bbm without playing a game within a half hour battery could fall 15℅ .. if I play this phone is kept in one day I can charge the battery 2x..

  • nice i like it

  • You mean 15% with 30 minutes for BBM? Well that's a serious drain, but it's hard to pinpoint the problem with different usage case. Try this, use it until 20%, turn it off, charge to 80% only, turn it on, unplug, use it as usual until it dropped to 20% again, repeat the cycle, turn off, charge to 80% again, turn on, unplug, then use as usual again. This time, after it dropped to 40%, turn off the phone then charge it up to 60%, turn it on again, unplug, and let it sit alone for an hour or two, after that check the battery level, it should still way above 55%, only dropped around 2.5%/hour. I've personally tested this and battery drain becomes only about 2-3%/hour for light texting on Telegram and WhatsApp. Notice when I said "use it as usual", really, just use it as usual, don't deliberately running Asphalt 8 or the likes to discharge. And it is important to unplug after the phone is completely turned on, not before.

  • thanks for explanation .. sorry for my bad grammar .. I 've given more time in charging the battery as you say, but the battery is only used for bbm without playing a game within a half hour battery could fall 15℅ .. if I play this phone is kept in one day I can charge the battery 2x..

  • When it is available to purchase , please send me date

  • It doesn't. Battery drain is average, but due to its sheer size it lasted longer, I can get over 7 hours of screen on time, the phone wasn't even dead, and all I did was playing Townsmen all day.

  • Sorry I don't fully understand what you're saying because of grammar, but I'll answer as much as I know. Let me rephrase your question, so if you're asking about "once the battery is full, will there be an indication or notification of it?", then yes, the battery bar will be full and in lock screen it will display "BATTERY CHARGED", but no pop up notification. Based on what you tell me, on your previous phone, you didn't immediately unplug the phone once the battery is 100%, because if you did, then your battery will quickly drop from 100%, am I correct? If yes, then it is the so called "rubber band" effect of Lithiom Ion, it happened for any Li-Ion battery, but for phone with over 1A charging current, the effect is more prominent. This phone charger is 2A, so yes battery will drop quickly if you unplug immediately after 100% and it will stabilize at 97-98%, that's just how Li-Ion works. If you don't want your battery to drop down quickly, leave the phone at charger after 100% for around 30 minutes or more, to let the battery saturate and catch up its capacity with voltage. But that will stresses the battery even more on top of being fully charged. It is what they called "trickle charging", and it is harmful for Li-Ion. Hope that helps.

  • bought it for 100£, been using normally as day to day phone, it surprised me at every department.. apps i use watsapp, viber, facebook, insta, chrome, opera, asphalt 8, plnt vs zombies 2 etc... so like all normal guys. main highlight must be battery life..its awesome, its screen also surprised me, can't find too much difference when compared to 1080p. this device doesn't look cheap at all. performance is REALLY GOOD for normal day to day use. rear camera too surprised me. its really great during daytime. btw we take snaps at day most of the time anyway. its speaker is also unbelievably loud and sounds great. with all these features and price, youre already getting more than enough from this phone.

  • I had lodged in for the flash sale on 6th April at 11 sharp on the MI website. The MI 5 was already sold out and Redmi 3 note was not available in 3 gb ram, 32 GB version. How can MI 5 be sold out in one second and why Redmi 3 32 gb version not available. Why does Xiaomi run a flash sale if they don't have products in stock or is it just a marketing gimmick?

  • anyone knows what to charge the battery of this type until the full take how long? What after 100% directly drawn although there are still images in addition to the battery charge? pls share..

  • plese tell me the site where this mobile is available for buying

  • There's a model with fingerprint sensor

  • I have purchased one Xiaomi Redmi Note Prime 2 mobile. But strangely there is no earphone and no guide book to use the phone. I found it very embarrassing. Mi should take note of this in future. A detail guide book how to use the phone is really necessary. And now I have to buy a set of earphone from the market. Is it not odd?

  • i can not download apps from google ply. why. tell me any one

  • Whether 2 SIM slot can be used for either SIM or SD card

  • Very hot

  • yes, the second SIM slot doubles as a micro SD slot up to 128gb

  • hello, im now buying redmi 3, and i want to ask, should i upgrade to ROM V7.2.6.0 ? or should i not ? and why ? thanks

  • Have you tried to run the device using 4G? Does it work well?

  • Memory card support in this phone ???????

  • hii.. i'm from Indonesia, want sharing my experience about this phone.. im buying this phone 3days ago for my young brother with distributor guarantee, because still not release officially.. its coming with ROM v7.1.1.0.0 Global Stable, but this is "fake" ROM because its contain 5 digit(usually a official rom just 4 digit like v7.1.1.0) & until now official MIUI not releasing Global Stable Rom for this device (newest official rom from MIUI is v7.2.7.0 China Stable & v6.x.x Developer).. at home i then flashing this device to official v7.2.4.0 China Stable using MiFlash.. succes!! and then i'm get notification update for v7.2.6.0, i'm update its.. finally this is my opinion for fake ROM v7.1.1.0.0 from distributor vs Official ROM v7.2.4.0/v7.2.6.0 China Stable.. ROM v7.1.1.0.0: - rom has been modified by distributor - Language there is Indonesian, Malaysia, Vietnam, Russian etc - never never get notification update or install update via OTA (update feature has been disabled by distributor) - battery life is loooong (i like this) - sometimes my own setting back to normal after restart ROM v7.2.4.0/v7.2.6.0 China Stable: - official from MIUI - just contain 3 language: China, Traditional China & English - can update via OTA (China Stable usually one a month and Developer rom usually every Friday) - battery life decrease more quickly than v7.1.1.0.0 - my own setting still same after restart

  • battery life are awesome..i just hate that so many ads...

  • Is it support to VOLTE?

  • one mobile

  • Xiaomi Redmi 3 is ready to launch in India by 31 March 2016.It is true or Rumor. Can you please confirm the truth & What is the source of information of this truth because no other online shopi is confirming about exact date of launch.

  • CDMA ?! Why does it say CDMA in "Network" row ? I don't think this phone supports CDMA sim

  • im already buy this redmi 3 for 3 weeks.. my comments -this phone is awesome -never lagging -long life battery for heavy use -its come that support network until 4G!! -memory slot can be fit with large storage such as 64gb mmc the important thing is buy original one!! im already buy 4 units of redmi 3 for my family.

  • Yes it is up to you, if you want to get it from official distributor, you can take your time, I'm using it and very pleased of it, just bought tempered glass, and flip case from nillkin, it is very suitable and elegant, running test and get information, all spec is the same, I don't think my redmi is a 3 clone, alhamdulillah :)

  • I already using it for 2 weeks, I cannot tell why it is fake, I run the test, all passed ok, the spec such as, RAM, processor, camera, storage, infrared, etc all the same with the spec in GSMARENA, yes we should carefull, but thanks God, I think I buy the original 1 :)

  • 3G is wcdma -_-

  • i dont think so. any fake phone in the market bro. so tau luh!

  • It's not a fake, it's called parallel import (or AP/ Approved Product) set. The smartphone itself is genuine product but it is meant for either China or Indian market (with different specs/software unique to the country). That's why sometimes you can't get LTE from an AP set because they may use different bands from your country. If you could afford to wait (and spend extra),you can get an official version of Redmi 3 for your country, but unlike Lenovo or Huawei, Xiaomi really take their sweet time to release country-specific official smartphone

  • for final opinion. for mr hugo and xiaomi manufacurer. Indonesian people waiting this phone but until this time i never get news when this phone available with officially. because we are worry about warranty and fake/clone/not original phone. thanks.

Well, it's a little review for this phone, take care of the camera, every smartphone are the same, you bump it, it will become error.. :D

  • I am a user of this handset and I ensure you that it does support otg

  • noo. it reach up to 36 degree celius while gaming also. it is very nice phone go for it........

  • Redmi 3

  • Support otg or not...

  • It seems like a good phone for the price, but everything is in Chinese language. No ear phones or car charger included in the box. Also no start up English guide.

  • indonesia has sell it. priced 136 $.

  • Let's see, is there any case and screen protector for the xiaomi redmi 3, because when i look for them I only find it for the xiaomi redmi NOTE 3?

  • So, after some more testing. It gets mildly hot in the region around the earspeaker after some average usage. The camera is improvable, go into settings -> camera and turn down the sharpness and contrast to the lowest settings. That makes the pictures look rather ok. A funny thing though, they sell this as a 13MP camera making you think the back one is 13MP it's not. It's only 8MP and the front one which you can take selfies with is 5MP. :/

  • Redmi 3 much better

  • According to the Xiaomi promotional video for the redmi 3 on youtube, it does support Gorilla Glass. I own the phone and can confirm it definitely has scratch resistant coating.

  • Note 2 is good.

  • Which one is better? Redmi 3 or Note 2? please fast response !!!

  • The cons is camera, slippery when hands on, and a bit lag when playing 3dgames, but for 130bucks its best buy 2016, thebattery really insane,

  • is it support otg? i read in some review, this advice support otg. please tell me

  • Do this phone overheating when playing clash of clan (coc)?

  • for the example redmi prime 2 get 22.000 antutu benchmark, and redmi 3 get 30.000 antutu benchmark. the comparison perfomance of processor just a little difference. i think this isn't xiaomi. because xiaomi always giving more for entry level than another brand. snapdragon 650 will be the best for redmi 3 xiaomi. always giving more xiaomi for difference..

  • if the processor is snapdragon 650 like redmi note 3 it will be surprized than now. coming to indonesia with snap 650? maybe will be the best and number 1 in here and will be flagship killer ever and achieved the target.

  • having read so many comments and feedback from users but sometime l don't know these can be taken seriously or not but there are many people said that this brand mobile very worthy to be utilized quite confusing me whether get it or not, not even only this brand only others brand also bad comments as well please be reliable feedback thanks

  • No

  • Super

  • No, I'd say the camera is actually pretty bad. It's pixelated as fcuk and taking pictures in low light settings is terrible. And even in a normal well lit room the pictures get blurry because it's so sensitive to hand shaking. That's bad. But hey, you can't get everything perfect for only $130..

  • if xiomi can launch sd650 on price 10000 xiomi can also launch SD625 on redmI 3 prime

  • please release a phone with snapdragon 625 like a varient redmi 3 prime

  • Its weird i didnt experience heating problem when playing games at all, compare to redmi note 2 consider its metal, well its nice improvement xiaomi, 2-3 step of research and improvement in design and quality xiaomi can dominate the world i think

  • Im from indonesia, this phone really crazy only need 1 time charges every 2 days, im a gamer playing 4 games including coc, cok, jurrassic world, and guild of honor, full playing for 15 hours a day, im really impressed with the battery life,only cons in gpu a bit lag qhen playing 3d games, and slippery, overal im satisfy, really , im using galaxy note 4 have 2 battery to be replace every 4 hours gaming, now i sold my note 4

  • When Redmi 3 will Launch??

  • redmi 3 is available in indonesia but not officialy, i hear march is coming. i hope so because im waiting...

  • Nope, mine is sounding fine. No audio problem at all.

  • Is there any heating problem,????? is camera's picture quality is good????

  • yes its 10 g

  • Is there any heating issue especialy for talking on phone for some hours?

  • My fren does this phone support 4G out of China ?

  • Does anyone have problem with ear phone speaker? Mine is very silent, almost cannot hear another side talking. I am thinking about returning phone. Is sound on your Redmi 3 during call like on any other phone or lower?

  • I WANT xiaomi redmi 3

  • I seriously think MI will no more be able to make sale as much as they sold before. India is a main market and we see lot of many Chinese giants coming here. Meizu, OPPO, oneplus and offcouse the internet giant LeEco, formerly LETV. They are making record sales. Please check for more phones and then decide yourself

  • Redmi 3 is support OTG or not?thanks

  • i want this phone

  • Xiaomi redmi 3 or Huawei p8 lite ?

  • how can i purchage this phone

  • You can also go for lenovo vibe k 5 which has also nice features at 8800 Rs...expected launch in India in Mar end

  • i want handset but which store available this model xiaomi redmi 3

  • Yes i agree that battery is biggest plus on this phone, but this phone have great build and nice processor. I was very positively amazed by it. Here is how he deal with gaming

  • Bought this model thru Aliexpress and got it last Friday. The initial impression is that it's a well built phone and the biggest bling-factor is truly the battery time. Charged it around 20:00 friday night and it's now, Monday 12:00 it's showing 30% still left, THAT is mighty impressive. My old phone is a iPhone 5s and that battery only lasts one day. The size of the phone might be a little too big, for me that is since I have kinda small hands. It's kinda slippery too since it has the rounded edges. Dunno if a iPhone 6/6s would be the same, maybe better since it's only 4,7". The OS is ok, reminds alot of IOS but it's annyoing that you can't use the main screen for more icons, either throw everything in folders or use more main screen sides. It's kinda laggy too, not that smoothness like withing IOS while sweeping down or up in the menues. It took a while before the calendar synced against my gmail, dunno why. BUT the camera sucks big balls. The front camera/selfie camera is just the biggest crap I've seen in 2016 and the main camera just truly suck, every picture look noisey/oversharpened, like it would be a 2mp camera but they've interpolated it to be 13mp so all pics just look terrible with high ISO-grain. That's the biggest flaw of the phone so I'm probably gonna sell it. Would've been a great phone for $130 if it wasn't for the lousy camera.

  • Is this phone 3g or 4g ?

  • Agree~ That's why I'm still waiting for the official release in Indonesia, ohh myy~ I really get so impatient already :( Hope that it's released in March (even better, soon! maybe next week!)

  • Really? Did the one which come to Indonesia already have "garansi resmi"?

  • Xiaomi redmi 3 already has came to Indonesia four days ago ....Don,t miss it.

  • redmi 3 please coming coming to Indonesia officially.. i want to buy all color dark grey silver n gold..

  • sheesh cant u guys just be grateful...theres like no alternative to smartphone at this price range for this feature combination... there are minor issue like heating(not that much like in Redmi 1S)... I have this phone and the battery life is just satisfying..., camera wise just average... gaming there are slight hick ups but thats only because of the system, just wait a couple of months and later the Xiaomi community will give unoffical CM or any other custom ROM then u will feel the raw power of SD616... .for now its already very fast... think abt the price guys...if u think u can save for a couple hundred bucks more then just do that...dont bash this bang per buck phone

  • redmi -3 &redmi note 2 is very nice product for the lowtest price in good feature so i wait this products pls confirm the release date.

I can see clear screen display under brightness sunlight. when i opened the box only 9.8 Gb rom available space it's because there is a lot of loading system from the original product. 55 % Battery is available after i played game n used internet access in 9 hours. there is fast charging with 2 hours in full charge.

  • Well, this phone is well balanced on the spec, IMO. Still, if you want Xiaomi phone, you have to be extra tough in waiting for them to come officially. As we know other than the brand itself, country like Indonesia has those elaborate rules for vendors to sell theor product in the country. That's why some vendors are taking that much time to come officially, also remember Zenfone series when it first come to Indonesia? Stocks were very limited and the price was insane, official and unofficial one. As for the specs, I believe it won't be that obsolete for the upcoming few months. As I read on some article in MWC 2016, still many mid-end smartphone still use 16GB ROM + 2GB RAM as their specs.

  • One of my friends, previously interested in Redmi3, finally bought Asus ZenPhone. Sure, we can buy Redmi3 in Indonesia if we want to.....alias unofficially imported from China. At a steep sale price of $175-180, it beats the whole reason why people should switch to Xiaomi .....pricing over quality. Even at such a steep price, buyers still have to take a lot of risks buying from an unknown stranger over the internet with questionable warranty. Usually buyers realize such transaction is purely based on luck ....llike a gamble in Vegas. Many people got duped buying a fake Xiaomi Mi4 last year, with only 1GB RAM of unknown chipset. That's the reason I refuse to buy from these unofficial sellers.

  • Just buy another phone. By the time it's released in your country, it's already an obsolete model anyway because all other brands might have released at least one competitng model at the same price . There is no point of waiting. Their price advantage is only valid if they release the phone on time. ....which, of course, they don't....except in their own home country, China.

  • whats about the phone performance .. any real user tall me.. i want buy this phone...

  • Its a nice smart phone.but it should provide 3 GB ram in this ranks like coolpad note 3lite

  • xiaomi redmi 3 is a perfect phone for me but some kind of measure issue that sim slot is hybrid

  • i heard alot of problems about it. Idk what to do whether i'll buy it or not?

  • Just update

  • Thanks bro

  • No

  • can we use dual sim with Sd card in this phone..?

  • I want to buy it but,How much is the free space available? I seen my dad phone only 9 gb free after install WA and bbm no music,video and no game just a new phone.

  • i try to use mi remote function but failed. when I select tv remote, no list for tv have shown. Same goes for others (tv, fans, a/c & so on). how to fix this.

  • Hi, is there someone, who has this phone and can tell me, how many seconds does the GPS take fo fix (without a-gps data, gps only) and if it is stable and no jumping when its left for few minutes at one place. Thanks a lot.

  • I have one question ?? Redmi 3 supported CDMA sim or not ?? GSM+CDMA. ??

  • Its better than any kind of xiaomi phone before..but idk how wel xiaomi note 3 But really its good, no hang no heat fast charging with extra life

  • redmi note 3 pro will launch in march - april so redmi 3 will launch after may only.

  • Not at all :D just running well

  • No, The second SIM slot is a hybrid slot. If you want an SD card, you'll have to sacrifice the second SIM.

  • I hate hybrid slot

  • Very fast operations, durable battery. Its battery last 2.5-3 day for me. My previous phone was Meizu mx4, and redmi 3 is much faster than it. Of course, the display and camera quality rocks on meizu mx4. Only issue is when scrolling it gets click in so often. Anyway, I am very happy with redmi 3.

  • When is the availability of this phone in Philippines? I heard no any update from this phone. says released data January 2016, but it's not available internationally.

  • Can anyone tell me that is it possible to insert both 2nd sim and SD at a time or if I insert sim 2 then no SD card or vice versa??????

  • Guys who already have it, how it works while you scroll down/up in a browsers? I see complains from some guys that it doesn't do it very quickly and sometimes hangs?

  • It heat but not hang.

  • anyone know sar value of this phone?

  • you are right,i broke my smartphone like almost 2 months back and i tend to buy phones every 2 -3 years so i decided to wait for remdi note 3 since the announcement right now i am tired of waiting ,i even returned my k4note ,coz i want to get a best phone in this price range ,if they don't launch it by march,i am planning to buy a mobile in 20k range

  • same thing happening in India,they didn't even announce whether this phone will release in india and even worse is they announced redmi note 3 without any launch date and delaying the release by playing games like explorer mission,if xiaomi is serious about expanding their markets out of china,they should do better,likes of LeTV ,lennova,huawei are expanding their markets outside china and releasing their phones on schedule

  • does it hangs and heat

  • does this phone support mhl ?

  • They melt sim onto SD card. :)

  • it's called ROM not "room" because its mean "ruangan" in indonesian

  • what exactly you talking about? extra slot of what?

  • can anyone please tell me whether this phone gets heated up quickly or not???

  • There is no extra slot, so how then, do you suppose to fix it ? Magic ? :D

  • Basically they first used to offer a dedicated slot, like in Redmi 2, but since then they've begun taking customers for granted as they removed this convenience from later models such as the Redmi 3 and Redmi Note 3. Seriously though, it was Samsung who used to cut corners by cheapening out, denying the convenience of using both the SIM cards and SD card simultaneously, but look how the tables have turned. It's now Samsung who's offering a separate slot for each cards in its revised edition of Galaxy J7 (2016) Funny, really.

  • How ?

  • I have heard that there is some mechanism to use both sim and sd card togrther with some supporting cheap.is it true ?

  • I also hate the technology for 2nd slot in which it will support either SIM card or SD(Memory) card. There is no seperate slot for SD card.

  • see honor holly 2 plus same phone

  • i am waiting

  • how can I get it plz tell me

  • another brand phone is coming quickly to Indonesia and xiaomi come very slowly and people in here asking about redmi 3 but isn't available so they are bought another phone. they are launching januari and coming february and xiaomi redmi 3 launching desember 2015 and februari still not yet. xiaomi said want to achieved the target but ?? im fans of xiaomi. so common xiaomi coming quickly to indonesia.

  • The price for this device is increasing.. It started with 'About 110 EUR'.

  • Is this really good for 120-150 range?.. Specs are good on paper always..

  • waiting fr it

  • I'm also wait for this

  • i wait this nice phone..........

  • launch date

  • Launched date???

  • i am waiting this phone .,

  • redmi 3 is better i think, looking at the specs

  • Firstly, Are you comfortable using Chinese made processor? Most of games are playable with Qualcomm processor, not with mediatek. Secondly, are fingerprint, screen resolution, bigger screen, and dual simcard slot plus micro sd slot important to you? If the answer to first question is qualcomm and the second q is not important. Do not hesitate to go for redmi 3, since it is cheaper than redmi note 3. However, please note that redmi 2 got hardware issues, not sure it will not happen to redmi 3.

  • Why should wait for buying this phone? I am sure it has been available in your country, search on internet and you will find one fit for you, I bought it for Rp. 2.300.000 or $171 its worth it

  • confusion between redmi 3 and redmi note 3. which is more power full....

  • Launched date???

  • from where u got???

  • Imagine this. Redmi Note 3 was launched in Nov 2015. India as the 2nd larget market for Xiaomi has been reportedly to launch soon. Rumour from the company insider in India said in March, but no specific launch date announced yet. That's 4 months apart. Redmi 3 was launched in 12 Jan 2016. How likely it is launched in 22 Feb ? I say 10% chance. You would probably see it officially launched in April or May. What about other countries ? That should take a lot longer...probably 5-6 months after China. I say, if you keep waiting, you'll get yourself frustrated. It's typical Xiaomi. If you have another option from other company, just buy it before you get yourself depressed waiting in hopelessness. The world is still spinning even without Xiaomi.

  • are you sure it is very nice i want to buy this set

  • R u sure it is releasing on 22 feb

  • yes itr ir gsm n cdma

  • when any of both will be launched

  • Can a owner of this phone confirm if the phone has a gyroscope sensor?

  • When comes into market? any idea

  • India Is Second Smart Phone Market....... And Still Redmi 3 Not Avaible........... What Xiaomi Is Doing Man.

  • are you sure this phone will be release in Indonesia on this month? I haven't heard any information about this phone in Indonesia

  • My personal short review or opinion about Redmi 3. These are my personal experience based on around 3 days of usage. I am from Bangladesh. Touch Response: 8/10, as good as Redmi Note-2 Pixel Density and Display quality: 7/10 where as Redmi Note 2 score 8/10. This is 720 display with 294 ppi. Okay with me. Video play back: Redmi 3, 7/10 where Redmi Note-2, 8/10. Speaker phone loudness and Sharpness: 8/10, it is excellent at this price range. Voice clarity and Network Reception: Redmi 3, 8/10 and 7/10. In Redmi Note 2, network just one point stronger I would like to say or I could be wrong. Wifi: Wonderful, as good as Redmi Note 2 and better than any Samsung J series. Camera front and Back: Good in day light as per price but in low light it is like above average. I would like to say, Samsung J5 or J7 can capture better images than Redmi 3, Redmi Note-2. But as per price it is okay. Redmi 3 can capture very good images in day light but even in day light; all the images are not stable like Samsung J series. In low light, keeping the HDR mode on, better images can be expected. Also if you know how to use the manual mode, you can get better images even in low light. Battery backup: Redmi 3, 9/10 where Redmi Note-2 will score in my view 4/10. So no comparison. Where Samsung J5 will score 7/10. So in terms of battery back up, Redmi 3 is a boss. Heating issue: Back part of Redmi 3 is made of metal. So you will feel the heat in Redmi 3 before Redmi Note 2. But it is not significant. I would say, you will feel the heat in heavy usage in Redmi 3 before Samsung J5 and before Redmi Note-2. But at this price range this is ok and it was not over heated. When I will get the Nillkin back cover, I may not feel that heat from the back part. Web browsing: Excellent both in Redmi 3 and Note-2 and better than Samsung J series. Goggle Services: Excellent. You may ask your vendor to install the Goggle Play services for you. Or you may do it by yourself. Gmail, Contacts syncing, Calendar, Viber, Whatsapp everything work just excellent in Redmi 3 and Note-2 . It has not come with any Gorilla glass protection on the screen so you will need to use HD screen protector on the glass. My device was brought from Noorjahan International, the owner directly deals with the customers and he knows about Xiaomi in depth and yes, they are honest and professional. They gave me for what I had paid for. Their address is: Shop# 67, Block#D, Level#06, Basundhara City Shopping Mall Dhaka, Bangladesh 01984553995 , 01977944933 Yes, they are recommended by my me, it was cost me 13,800 taka. You will get only manual, data cable and charger with the package. Special thanks to Rizvi Mohammad bhai who had provided me so many useful information about Xiaomi Devices. Final note: I am VERY HAPPY with the device.

  • 2nd best on the battery test but why is it not there yet in the battery test table???

  • There are brand monopolies thats why it could not reach other countries

  • True...I'm also waiting for redmi 3.

  • Actually xiaomi is testing our patience.....Nd losing its customers in India due to d delay in launch.. Whenever xiaomi launches its phone,its specs wil be outdated from its competative phones.....

  • When it release

  • Definitely Redmi Note 3 if size doesn't matter to you. Faster & better camera

  • agree! Huawei honor series looks better and have better sales and service

  • Redmi 3 @ redmi note 3?which 1 more better if the price same?

  • Haha me too

  • but why .i heared its luanch in 2.2.16

  • Did anyone know when xiaomi redmi 3 will released globally?

  • Are you sure :(

  • sadly redmi 3 is not going to launch in India until april-may .

  • how to install whatsapp in redmi 3

  • No bro its otg supports see the connectivity option :)

  • redmi 3 definitely..the latter got no noise cancellation mic and smaller batt capacity.

  • in this page said that it's support OTG!

  • The most important thing to be noted is its WEIGHT just 144g.....with a metal body and a 4100mAh battery......awesome job xiaomi.......even galaxy s5 with a plastic body weighs 145g............... i have been a visitor of gsmarena for the past 6+ yrs...but this is my first comment.....

  • Why not both?

  • awsom price n awsm modle

  • Which one is better redmi 3 or ZenFone 2 laser 5.0??..

  • Oops...

  • Very nice phone

  • Redmi 3 or ZenFone 2 laser 5.0??? Which one more better??

  • Bro, then u go with coolpad note 3 lite awesome phone,i m using it..

  • i don't mind having mediatek as i'm not a heavy gamer (just play CoC), but i really care about microsd slot, thats my preference.

  • just put a tempered glass on top of it. even tho it has no dinasour glass, redmi series screen won't crack easily, scratch yes, but it won't crack easily. dropped many times still ok. my friend's zenfone with gorrila glass 3 dropped once and cracked.

  • How was the camera?

  • if only there is 32 gb version , it would be a perfect world.

  • The pixel density only 297ppi hmm

  • So how was the internet speed on 4g?

  • redmi note 3 with snapdragon 650 verision is better than mediatek heli x10.

  • This phone already had a review, now that this is a really detailed review from gsmarena, does this mean that the redmi3 is finally about to be released globally?? Any info on the India release of this beast?? Cant wait nto buy it!!

  • Just had a chance to play around with the display unit in directd. Wow the phone is so compact comfortably hold by one hand. Noticeable lag though comparing with the redmi note 3 besides. I won't buy the big note3 even it's cheaper as im not heavy gamer. Quite pricey rm689 if converted from rmb699 but still super value as it's hard to buy now even u fly to china. Will get a gold one and install nillkin tempered glass rm30. Who cares it got itgorilla or dinosaur glass or not.

  • can any one knows the release date ..

  • You should read the review, it say this phone have OTG support

  • everythings is good but dissapointed with the screen without protection. :-( if corning glass 2 or 3 or dragontrail available in the phone it's so great. but......... :-(

  • agree

  • Hey Guys, I am planning to buy a new phone and my budget is 10K. Any idea when this phone will be released in India. There are rumours that it may not.

  • everything looks nice.. except one thing.. no OTG support.. :-(

  • Xiaomi in malaysia had becoming into ap market ady as the official website are doom selling some old model. Sigh..huawei will surpass xiaomi sooner or later if xiaomi Malaysia just care about their marketing strategies and ignore their fans.

  • i already did comparing b/w 2 phones . i just want to know other opinions. for me i don't mind to stuck with media tech version in case there is heating issues with snapdragon version . what do u think guyz ?

  • Dont wait for ths,go for coolpad note 3 lite,got today from amezon in fast delivory.superr phone..acurate fingerprint...

  • when will this mob gets released

  • i dont really like the non-removable battery though..

  • # Pick snapdragon one.. it has better camera.. # Overheating is not an issue on both phone.. # Strangely enough a lot of people fed up waiting for r3note pro and went for infinix note 2 in my country O_O where it doesnt even compare performance wise..

  • Redmi Note 3 with Snapdragon is better becouse of CPU, GPU, camera and hybrid sim slot (2 sim or 1 sim + micro sd card).

  • please use compare if you want to know which one much better, try this .... think smart ok

  • for xiaomi, if redmi 3 come to Indonesia i hope the screen of the phone use corning or dragontrail glass. we will still pay if the price a liitle expensive with corning or dragontrail. im waiting redmi 3 with protection like redmi 2. thanks..

  • guyz plz tell me which version of Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 is much better; media tech version or the one with snapdragon . and which one have heating issues ?

  • My comment is a question. The space for aplication instal is limited? If yes how is it?

  • I have read so many similar complaints from Indonesian users, where warranty is not respected due to ridiculuos claim by the SC. Some were even asked to pay for 50-70% of the unit price still under warranty. Many were so upset that they posted in Xiaomi forum & other online medias. This is done by the authrorized SC which is also the distributor/importer of Xiaomi products. Too many complaints with the SC & warranty. Many people have not heard any news from the SC even after 45-60 days. I even read a case where a user has to bring a 6-day old Xiaomi Readmi Note 4G to the SC due to boot loop, and he was asked to pay 83% of the new unit price for board replacement by the associated SC pointed by Xiaomi. The amount of complaints are too many to be considered a mere incident. Based on those reports, I have finally given up hope to try Xiaomi. Perhaps I'd better stick with the major league where SC quality has been proven to be excellent.

  • Yes is true because of OS. MUi

  • can we use cdma +gsm sim cards like on recently launched honor holly 2 plus. The Huawei Honor Holly 2 Plus is a dual SIM (GSM + CDMA and GSM) smartphone Connectivity options include Wi-Fi, GPS, Bluetooth, FM, 3G, 4G. Sensors on the phone include Proximity sensor, Ambient light sensor, Accelerometer.

  • Redmi note 3g ,the only mobile of xiaomi without heating issue,rest all other models heats a lot and everybody suffering that heat because of specs. Redmi note 3G ,having Mediatek Processor, which discontinued because of Patent issue with Mediatek/Ericsson.Honble Delhi High court stops the sale. All other snapdragon xiaomi models having heating issue due to lack of good patented technology,and lot of phones are dead due to bad hardware and service centres denaying the free service and asking for paid service.

  • If that is true, that's bad. I know for sure that once you break your Xiaomi glass, you'll probably also need to replace the LCD. In Redmi 2, the glass & the LCD is one inseparable unit (unlike Redmi 1s I heard), so you will need to replace the whole LCD & touch glass panel at the same time. I suspect Redmi 3 is also the same. The cost of replacement is very expensive. I've got a friend who bought Mi Note for $145, and the cost of the LCD is $90. That is 63% of the whole unit. So, if Redmi 3 uses only normal glass, all I can say is "Be careful not to scratch or ruin it", or else it's better to buy a new one.

  • That's the saddest thing, and backlit capacitive buttons, because redmi 2 has gorilla glass 2, they should put gorilla glass 3 on this phone...

  • Specs are good but No need to wait, 1. You will not able to use 2 Sims at a time with memory card. A.One Nano Sim + One memory card OR B.One MicroSim+One NanoSim,NO MEMORYCARD. 2.Non Removable battery,during water spillage you cannot able to remove battery for saving circuit board/to avoid short circuit. 3.Non Removable battery , when battery life decreases you have to go to far service centre to replace IF AVAILABLE at that time with a high battery cost and servicing cost. 4.Heating issue. 5.Bad service.

  • Is it true that it doesnt support otg? And can we move installed application (basically games) into sd card?

  • wait..... coming soon

  • Bought one for my GF. Great phone. Seller allready installed multilanguage rom and added tempered glass protection for free.

  • you can check directd. it's already available and ready stock

  • 02-02-2016

  • It supports gyroscope.

  • We already had a debate for this, there is no difference human eye can't see more then 300 ppi, (hd) so full hd, quad hd or even 4k (xperia premium) are all marketing which only affects battery life, you can see all differences on a tv which is 80-120cm not on phone screen which is 12-15cm.

  • It has just regular glass. Not tempeted and gorrilla glass. I'm waiting for protective classes willbe manufactured by some producers.

  • i like this phone i need this phone

  • I ordered phone one week ago and I am waiting to arrive it. I hope it will come in few days or so. When it arrives ill tell you about the phone.

  • i am waiting plz plz inform me best best mobile

  • full HD screen lol

  • This phone does not support gyroscope on their website. But it is mentioned it does on Gsmarena. Can someone please verify?

  • Awesome phone when this relased

  • In which way? haha, smaller battery, maybe that way.

  • lenovo lemon 3 is better than it

  • Hey. Is it launched

  • you can head on to xiaomi mi forums and look for answer,i am sure it can be fixed by ota update,xiaomi does test their phones a lot before releasing them

  • Look nice, when launching in Malaysia.

  • I saw youtube video comparing Redmi 3 vs Samsung J7. I'm a little bit concerned with the Wifi signal in Redmi 3, which in the test showed only 1 bar, while J7 3 bar placed side by side. I know J7 is a lot more expensive, but wifi signal reception is definitely not where I would expect to see a difference. Is this common to all Xiaomi ?

  • Can I wait or not due to availability

  • no usb otg support

  • 31st january

  • Please release faster this phone..i'll waiting..so late..
