₹ 5,999 for 2 GB + 16 GB variant and ₹ 6,999 for 3 GB + 32 GB. Separate microSD card slot, dual SIM, 13 MP rear camera auto focus + LED flash, 5 MP front camera, 3,000 mAh battery, Snapdragon chipset, HD display, IR blaster

Camera looks nice and gives sharp images from what I have seen from 2 review videos. There is some noise in low light condition photos in one of the videos. Overall, I will rate it as camera OK phone.

Finally dedicated sd-card!

But what is this nonsense 8-day battery life they're claiming? Even my redmi 4 seems to have poorer battery life than my 3s but i think it's more due to marshmallow. just like people are reporting even worse life after upgrading from M to nougat.

Jio bundled offer is a real shit one with Rs 100 cashback as a MyJio Coupon.

Also that 199/month calls + 1GB/day, 28 days suggests that 84 days pack will be increased from 459 to 599 (30% increase) after 31st march 2018.
Gradually hitting that Dream come true Teleco's Rs 300/month ARPU figure... But wait where's the true LTE Speeds?

I didn't see 1gb/day anywhere, rather 1gb/28 days. Regardless 459 is still better than this 199 crap.

Ok, so 199 works out to 597 for 84 days. Still, 459 to 599 is a huge jump. Think people will still go for Jio?

4,999 only for first 50 Lakh orders. Hype all the way!!

Typical Mi. Limited (flash?) sale that too.

Anyone notice the stupid design for the dedicated sdcard? If a person wants to change the card he will have to shut off the phone first. They should have kept both sims together and made the sdcard slot separate.
