Sunday Talk: Let’s Discuss About the Xiaomi Redmi Y2 and its Pricing

Xiaomi has been so successful in the last 18 months, especially after the launch of Xiaomi Redmi Note 4. The Chinese brand managed to sell 9.4 million units of Redmi Note 4 in India within a year. 2017 will be considered as the best year for Xiaomi in India as almost all their smartphones did equally well at the market, except the high-end Mi Mix 2 and Redmi Y1 Lite. Xiaomi has launched its fourth smartphone of 2018 in India a couple of days ago- the Redmi Y2. The Redmi Y2 is the fifth Xiaomi smartphone to offer the Snapdragon 625 chipset in India, after the Redmi Note 4, Mi Max 2, Mi A1 and Redmi Note 5.

As always, the Redmi Y2 is priced aggressively in the country and it gives a tough fight to the competition and Xiaomi’s own Redmi Note 5. Specifications wise, the Redmi Y2 has a 5.99-inch HD+ display- not the Full HD+ one as the Redmi Note 5. It’s powered by the Qualcomm Snapdragon 625 chipset, mated with 3GB/4GB of RAM and 32GB/64GB of internal storage. It has a dedicated microSD card slot for storage expansion.

Here comes the real deal with the Redmi Y2. The phone packs dual rear camera setup and a whopping 16MP front-facing with various AI features on board. The Redmi Y2 boasts a 12MP primary sensor at the back with f/2.2 aperture, 1.25?m and PDAF. It’s paired with a 5MP depth sensor. The rear camera also offers Electronic Image Stabilisation (EIS). To the front, Xiaomi has added a 16MP shooter, which is being marred with various AI features. In fact, Xiaomi is calling the smartphone as ‘AI-Selfie superstar.’
