Launched in front of a huge crowd in India, the Redmi Note 3 runs a Snapdragon 650 processor (formerly known as the 618). In terms of benchmarks, it punches high above its weight, thanks to the ARM Cortex-A72 two BIG cores – beating devices that run the Snapdragon 810 and the Snapdragon 808.

It’ll come in two variants 2GB/16GB and a 3GB/32GB for RAM and internal storage, respectively. There will also be microSD card expandability in the hybrid 4G LTE enabled dual-SIM slots on the smartphone. On the screen that sizes in at 5.5-inches, you’ll be viewing everything in a Full HD (1920 x 1080) display.

For users who love taking photos, the Redmi Note 3 has a 16-megapixel rear sensor with a f/2.0 aperture and PDAF (phase detection autofocus). Under the dual-LED flash module, there’s a round fingerprint sensor that has Xiaomi quoting a 0.3 second unlocking time.

Aside from biometric security, that fingerprint sensor will help you take photos on your selfie and rear camera as well. In MIUI 7, there will be an additional option to use App lock to secure apps and unlock them with your fingers. Mr Barra also decided to try out unlocking his Redmi Note 3 with his lips – it worked but only with his lower lip.

Moving from the metal-clad rear to the front, the top right will greet you with a 5-megapixel camera shutter for your selfies. Another highlight is the chipset’s ability to support VoLTE (voice over LTE) and faster LTE speeds (Cat.7).
