Xiaomi has unveiled their newest smartphone in their line-up and it’s the affrodable Xiaomi Redmi 3. So what can we expect from this smartphone? First, the smartphone now packs a metal body and now, it sports a better specifications.

Xiaomi Redmi 3 Specs

• 13-Megapixel Rear Camera with PDAF
• 5-Megapixel Front Camera

I was not surprised that this smartphone was already using a metal body with diamond pattern at the back because that has become a trend lately but the large 4100mAh battery was surprising.  I expect that this smartphone would have a longer battery life because of this.

The Xiaomi Redmi 3 is priced at RMB 699 or around P5,000 which is great for its hardware. unfortunately, There’s no word if this smartphone would arrive in the country anytime soon.
