The 6.9-inch Xiaomi Mi Max 3 is headed for India

Those who need the perfect blend between a tablet and a mid-range phone don't have many choices around the 7-inch sweet spot, and probably the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 is the most popular one. With a 6.9-inch display, this phablet comes with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 636 processor, 6 GB of memory, 128 GB internal storage, and can be acquired starting below the US$300 mark (but with 4/64 GB of memory/storage, of course).

In addition to the highlights mentioned above, the massive Mi Max 3 also features a 12 MP + 5 MP main camera setup on the back, a generous 5,500 mAh battery that features USB Type-C fast charging, and runs MIUI 9.5. However, the variant for India will probably come with MIUI 10 out of the box, since the new version of Xiaomi's custom Android ROM has become available earlier this month.

Although there is no information about the Indian launch date and pricing to talk about, it would not be surprising to see the Xiaomi Mi Max 3 hit the local market via Flipkart, as it happens with many affordable Android smartphones nowadays. The prices will probably start at less than US$250 for the 4/64 GB variant. We will let you know as soon as everything is official, so stay tuned.
