Xiaomi has officially announced that it will launch the Redmi Note 3 in India on March 3. The date was revealed on Xiaomi’s forum, where it is also asking Mi fans to register for the event.

The Redmi Note 3 comes in two variants: 2GB of RAM with 16GB of storage and 3GB of RAM with 32GB of storage. It was available in Dark Grey, Champagne Gold, and Silver colours and can be expected to be available at roughly the same price point in India. It sports an all-metal body and also packs a fingerprint scanner at the back, just like the original Redmi Note 3 with a MediaTek SoC. Regarding the price, we can speculate it to be around Rs 11000 to Rs 13000 price range but we can only know more once the device is launched.
