Xiaomi is known for releasing a bunch of new phones each year and providing major markets with variants that meet consumer needs. Back in August, Xiaomi announced the Redmi Note 4 in China in two variants. The company added another higher-range variant and announced the phone in India today.

RAM capacity and processor model were upgraded on the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 variant for India, while its other specs stayed roughly the same. The phone will be available in India on Flipkart and Mi.com, Xiaomi’s online store.

The phone will go on sale starting 12pm on Monday and will be made available in Gold, Grey and Silver color variants, with a new Matte Black version expected soon. The first variant of the Redmi Note 4 has 2GB of RAM and 32GB of internal memory, while its price reaches $145.

An affordable price of $161 was also given to the second version with 3GB of RAM and 32GB of memory. Because Xiaomi’s strategy on the smartphone market involves offering devices with higher-end specs and affordable prices, the third variant of the Redmi Note 4 carries 4GB of RAM and 64GB of storage for a price of $190.

Aside from this, all the variants will sport a unibody aluminum design with 2.5D curved glass and a fingerprint sensor on the back. Its display size is 5.5 inches with 1080p resolution. Under the IPS LCD screen, the Redmi Note 4 houses a Snapdragon 625 chipset based on the 14nm process, which Xiaomi says offers more power and a 25% increase in battery life over the Redmi Note 3.

Speaking of power, the phone incorporates a 4,100mAh battery, but no fast charging. The rear camera on the phone has a capacity of 13MP with phase detection autofocus and 5MP camera in the front. The smartphone comes with dual SIM support with VoLTE and runs MIUI 8 with Android Marshmallow. Xiaomi is currently testing the Nougat update. Specs and pricing for the Redmi Note 5 have already leaked.
