It was supposed to be a Thank You tweet from Xiaomi, but instead it turned out to be a platform for fans to express how disappointed they were about the “low number” of Redmi Note 3 phones that were put up for sale today. Fans were evidently upset that they couldn’t lay their hands on […]
The official flash sale of Redmi Note 3 may have ended with more disappointed people compared to happy ones, but that doesn’t mean that the phone is not available online any more. People who booked the phone have started reselling them on classified websites such as Quikr and OLX, within minutes of the flash sale […]
Xiaomi Redmi Note 3, the most exciting phone from the Chinese brand in India after the Mi3 two years ago, is all set to go on its first flash sale on Amazon and Mi.com today at 2 PM. While details about the phone have been revealed, what remains to be seen is how good the […]
It’s probably got to do with keeping prices down, but Xiaomi’s decision to leave out branded toughened glass protection such as Dragontrail has some fans worried, especially since its biggest competitor — the LeTV Le 1s — offers Corning Gorilla Glass 3. However, the Note 3 is certainly not the first mass-market, mid-range phone to […]
Samsung launched the Galaxy J5 and J7 in India in June last year at Rs 12,000 and 15,000, surprising many with the aggressive pricing. A year later, the company is all set to unveil the 2016 versions of the two smartphones towards the end of this month, but the market has only got worse for the Korean […]
Xiaomi, which has not had a ‘hit’ in India in the last one year, has avoided its previous pricing blunders with its Redmi Note 3, offering the 32 GB model at just Rs 11,999, and mounting a strong challenge to LeTV Le 1s. The price is a huge discount over what the device is selling […]
Today is a big day for fans of Xiaomi, a company that kicked up a lot of dust when it arrived on the scene in India two years ago, but failed to follow up its initial success due to a patent litigation with Ericsson. However, after a prolonged rough patch, the Chinese brand is all […]
Xiaomi is all set to launch its latest Redmi Note 3 Pro smartphone in India in two days and there are several media reports that it will price the 32 GB version below Rs 15,000. According to market sources, the Chinese player will have to sacrifice its margin, or even offer subsidies to deliver the […]
LeTV Le 1s, the runaway hit from LeEco, continues to remain in stock on Flipkart today, even 9 hours after the latest open sale began. This has come barely a week after the phone’s first open sale saw stocks exhausted before most people had a chance to buy because of extremely high demand. On Feb 25, the stocks […]
LeEco said that it ran out of stocks during its first open sale of LeTV Le 1s smartphone two days ago due to unexpectedly strong demand and that it would soon conduct more open sales, ditching the pre-registration model. The phones will be available for anyone to purchase whether they registered in advance or not. […]
After hyping the first ‘open sale’ of LeTV Le 1s for days, it looks like the Chinese firm either didn’t have enough stocks or didn’t anticipate the kind of demand that the phone will see. Either way, stocks of LeEco’s first ‘open sale’ ran out within minutes, with many so-called ‘super fans’ turning into ‘super […]
LeEco is at it again. After seizing market share from the likes of Xiaomi, Lenovo and Huawei with its cut-throat pricing, the smartphone and content company sold its latest Le Max Pro model for just Rs 21,000 in China. What makes the model, and the price, so special is that it is the first phone […]
Finally, Xiaomi is launching its first major phone in India since the launch of Mi 4c back in September — after perhaps the longest interval between major launches since the entry of the brand to the country. The Redmi Note 3 India version, also known as the Pro variant, is very similar to the Chinese […]
LeEco will roll out over-the-air software updates for its biggest selling phone in India, the LeTV Le 1s, this week. The update will resolve issues that have been highlighted in user reviews.

LeEco said the total number of orders received for its LeTV Le 1s smartphone has reached 2.2 lakh at the end of the third flash sale today. A total of 65,000 units of the phone were ordered in a matter of 9 seconds today on Flipkart. However, this does not mean that the company has […]

It was bound to happen. Lenovo has finally announced that it will not be holding a flash sale of its K4 Note on Monday, but instead there will be a ‘normal sale’ where everyone can drop in and buy the handset for Rs 11,999. The move was expected after its fellow Chinese competitor LeTV announced […]
The second flash sale of the LeTV Le 1s smartphone was surprising for various reasons. First, it was the first time that any company in India had put so many phones on sale at one go — 95,000 is not a small number and the folks at Flipkart are going to be busy for days […]
