Redmi 1S - Red Alert Another Threat is Coming

Mi Philippines has finally announce the arrival of Red 1S on September 4, 2014 via Lazada Philippines.

The Redmi 1S is dual sim/ dual standby unit at 4.7 IPS 720p HD IPS Display, this should provide a clear, vivid and detailed viewing pleasure with a 312ppi.

Powering the device is 1.6GHz Quad-Core Snapdragon 400 MSM8228 Processor with Adreno 305 GPU. Chipset by Qualcomm delivers performance plus endurance without straining on battery life. The 1GB RAM and 8GB EMMC storage gives it ample memory and storage.

You wont be disappointed with its optical features with 8MP Back camera ƒ/2.2 aperture as well as 1.6MP front camera. Capture moments with Zero shutter lag and variety of modes including facee recognition and wide angle shots for selfies or group selfies.

Connectivity features include WiFi, Bluetooth, GPS plus HSPA+ data connectivity. USB-OTG is supported for hosting usb devices.

Battery is 2000mAh removable. Other added features includes Mi Sound Hi-Fi System with Dirac sound technologies and Dual microphone noise reduction.

For 5,599.00, Mi Philippines offers the complete package for the budget consumer. If I may enumerate: quality HD display, performance grade chipset with bigger storage, better camera and extensive connectivity features at a meager price tag. Xiaomi is setting trends for which competition try to match or catch up.

***With comparison to what I wrote when I spotted Hongmi 1S, it seems they are one in the same product however if this the case it may have a display made by Sharp / AUO (Apple supplier) or Corning Gorilla Glass 2 and Samsung / OV Back-Illuminated Sensor for its camera.
