In good news for people who’re always too late for flash sales, the Xiaomi Mi 4i is now available for purchase free from the bounds of registration and obsessive clicking. You still have to buy it at its launch price of Rs 12999, but if you throw in your old phone in exchange at Flipkart, the handset can be yours for just Rs 7999.
The Xiaomi Mi 4i isn’t exclusive to one e-commerce site either. You now have the freedom to choose from Mi.com, Amazon, Snapdeal, Airtel and The Mobile Store. The device still looks like an excellent prospect since its April release. It has a 5-inch full HD display, supplied with Corning Concore glass and Sunlight Display technology that provides better readability in the sun.
Pictures are snapped through a 13MP main camera with a two-tone flash and a 5MP front lens. The Xiaomi phone runs on a 64-bit 1.7GHz octa-core Snapdragon 615 CPU and a 3120mAh battery. On the memory front, it has 2GB of RAM and 16GB of flash storage, which can’t be further expanded. The 4G-enabled dual-SIM phone’s connectivity options include Bluetooth 4.1, Wi-Fi, A-GPS and GLONASS.
