Xiaomi has launched a new budget mid ranged smartphone called Redmi 3S and its superior variant named Redmi 3S Prime.

These are Dual SIM phones running on MIUI 7 based on Android 6.0 Marshmallow operating system. There’s also a Fingerprint sensor placed at rear panel adding extra security to the phones. On the front we get a 5 inch HD IPS display with 1280 x 720 pixels resolution.
Xiaomi has powered the phone with Octa-Core Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 ( 4 x 1.2 GHz Cortex A53 + 4 x 1.5 GHz Cortex A53) 64-bit processor accompanied by Adreno 505 GPU from which we can expect faster performance and better video out put.
