Xiaomi Redmi S2
Xiaomi launched the affordable selfie-centric Redmi S2 phone in China. The Redmi S2 seems to be a gradual extension of the Redmi Y1 and Redmi Y1 Lite launched in India last year, although Xiaomi isn’t saying if the two are related in any way. The Redmi S2 looks a lot like the recently launched Mi 6X and focuses a great deal on AI-based photography, both on the front as well as on the back. Also, the Redmi S2 is cheaper than the Mi 6X and chances are that it may come to India soon enough.
There have been rumours that the Xiaomi Redmi S2 might launch in India as an Android One smartphone. The Mi 6X could launch as the Mi A2 while the Redmi S2 will be a more affordable offering from Xiaomi, both running stock Android OS. However, these are all speculations so far and nothing can be said for certain. The Xiaomi Redmi S2 price starts at CNY 999 (roughly Rs. 10,600) for the 3GB RAM and 32GB inbuilt storage variant, and goes up to CNY 1,299 (roughly Rs. 13,700) for the 4GB RAM and 64GB inbuilt storage variant.
