A few days back, Xiaomi had ran into a roadblock where it had gotten banned from importing and selling its smart phones in India over a patent dispute. Finally they managed to get the green light to resume sales but only if it uses Qualcomm’s processors. Apparently the root cause of this patent dispute lies on MediaTek units which allegedly infringed Ericsson patents on 3G, EDGE and AMR technologies. Xiaomi has managed to obtained an exemption for selected models as Qualcomm has licensing agreements with Ericsson.
This prompts Xiaomi to reintroduce the Redmi 1S that offers Dual-SIM 3G with a Qualcomm Snapdragon 400 processor. Since the dual-sim 3G Redmi Note is affected, Xiaomi India will try to introduce its newer Redmi Note 4G (single SIM) that uses Qualcomm instead of MediaTek’s processor. India is a huge market for Xiaomi and they aim to sell 100,000 units each week.
