Xiaomi has come to India with all the guns in its arsenal and is leaving no stone unturned to capture the lion’s share of each of the segments which it is venturing into. It has launched the Mi3 for Rs 13,999, Redmi Note for Rs 9,999 and Redmi 1S for Rs 6,999 and all the three smartphones are going to give every smartphone manufacturer in the country nightmares for times to come.

If all this wasn’t enough, it is even planning to bring the MiPad tablet to the market in future which is going to raise the bar in tablet arena by such a high amount, that the already overpriced iPad Mini 2 will seem all the more overpriced and even the Nexus 7 might seem overpriced in future too. It was showcased at the launch event alongside the 3 smartphones.
