Xiaomi Redmi Go now comes in a new variant with 16GB of internal storage up from the 8GB storage we saw on the base variant launched last month. The new Xiaomi Redmi Go variant is priced at Rs 4,799 and it can be purchased starting today via Mi.com, Flipkart and Mi Home stores across the country. To recall, the Redmi Go was launched last month with 1GB of RAM and 8GB of internal storage for Rs 4,499, and it’s already available for purchase via open sale. With several users demanding for more storage on the Redmi Go, the company has brought the 16GB variant priced just Rs 300 above the base variant. Sadly, Xiaomi did not upgrade the RAM to 2GB to justify the motto of Android Go programme. Almost all the Android Go smartphones available in the market right now has just 8GB of internal storage, so it’s good to see a company bringing new variant with storage bump.

Xiaomi Redmi Go Now Comes in a 1GB RAM and 16GB Storage Variant
Xiaomi launched the Redmi Go which is its first Android Go smartphone to gain the upper hand in the sub- Rs 5,000 segment where it doesn’t have much presence. The only Xiaomi smartphone that was priced less than Rs 5,000 was the Redmi 5A, but that was way back in November 2017. The Redmi Go is aimed at first-time smartphone buyers and they can even choose it over the JioPhone 2 smart feature phone which is available for Rs 2,999 in the country.
