Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and Note 3 to launch in Nepal

On Thursday, Vatsal Implex Pvt Ltd celebrated Mi Fans day at CTC Mall. The company who claims to be the official distributor of Xiaomi in Nepal showcased 2 phones: Xiaomi Redmi Note 2 and Redmi Note 3. According to them, they are preparing to launch these models in coming months. Although they haven’t announced the price yet but it is certain that it will be higher compared to other markets specifically compared to India looking at the current price of devices that they are selling: Redmi 2, Mi 4 and 10,000mAh powerbank.

Redmi Note 2

Redmi Note 2 was Xiaomi’s last year’s budget midrange phone which has pretty amazing specs like the 5.5inch 1080p display, 16MP Camera, a massive 3060mAh battery which is powered by Helio X10 and is a beast in terms of both performance and power efficiency. We are particularly not sure which variant will arrive in Nepal, but we hope they bring the 32GB variant since there's no microSD support on these phones.

Redmi Note 3

Redmi Note 3 is the midrange phone of 2016 which is quiet similar to Redmi Note 2 in terms of specs. Redmi Note 3 now flaunts a new metallic unibody which is sleek and looks premium, also there’s a fingerprint sensor on the back, a massive 4000mAh battery and the phone is powered by Snapdragon 650. There are two variants of Redmi Note 3, one with 2GB RAM and 16GB Internal another with 3GB RAM and 32GB Internals with Micro SD Card support for both variants. We hope both the phones will be available since users will have wider range of phones to choose from.
