Xiaomi sells 250,000 Redmi Note 4 units in just 10 minutes

Yesterday at noon, the first flash sale offering the new Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 started in India via Flipkart and mi.com. The stock consisted of 250,000 units and was completely depleted in around 10 minutes, most likely leaving many potential customers disappointed. Now, it looks like they have to wait until next week for the next batch to arrive.

Xiaomi Redmi Note 3 was the most purchased online handset, with 2.3 million units sold in around six months. Its successor comes in three variants, with prices between $147 USD and $190 USD. The most affordable one comes with 2 GB RAM and 32 GB internal storage while the high-end model offers 4 GB and 64 GB. The mid-ranger offers 3 GB and 32 GB for around $162 USD.

The 5.5-inch Xiaomi Redmi Note 4 is powered by the octa-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 processor and a generous 4,100 mAh battery. The second flash sale is expected to occur next week, on Monday or Friday. We will get back to it soon, so stay tuned.
