Xiaomi Mi 3 goes on sale for Flipkart early access & priority pass consumers

Xiaomi Mi 3 India

Earlier: While the rest of us wait for another 24 hours, Flipkart has opened the sales of Xiaomi Mi 3 smartphone a day early for the lucky 1,000 Flipkart First early-access and 5,000 Xiaomi priority pass consumers.

These customers can now head over to Flipkart and place their order for Mi 3 smartphone. Like all Flipkart exclusives, the consumers will only be able to buy one Mi 3 smartphone per account, so don’t try to add more than one unit as your whole order will be cancelled.

To remind you, Xiaomi Mi 3 has been priced at INR 13,999 for the 16GB version. The 64GB version is not available in India right now and there is no confirmation on when it will arrive.

Xiaomi Mi 3 features a 5-inch full HD IPS display, 2.3GHz quad-core Qualcomm Snapdragon 800 8274AB processor, 2GB of RAM and Android 4.4.2 based MIUI v5. The phone also packs 13MP rear camera with dual-LED flash, 2MP front camera, 3050 mAH battery, 3G and the usual connectivity options.

  3. Brought mine. Will be delivered tomorrow.
    Its sad that there are no ROMS avalaible for this. Then again Miui is not that bad.
    I think its a risk worth taking. Hopefully Xiaomi will release kernel source in future and we will get Custom ROMS.

      • You didn’t have to click on the same page, the thing was that you had to go to flipkart in the mobiles section and search for mi3 and then the order page came up! That is how i got it!

      • I guess this sale is not for the customers who registered early.
        But for the flipkart first customer.
        Because flipkart is a fraud

  9. @gaurav2328:disqus, “1,000 Flipkart First early-access and 5,000 Xiaomi priority pass” What would happen if I have won both the passes? Will I be able to buy one phone or two phones?

  11. Wow! If this comment thread is anything to go by, Xiaomi is gonna sell a $h!tload of their phones over the next few weeks. Watch out Moto and Asus LOL!

    Either way, I’d hope all you guys are spreading the word about Xiaomi, Asus and Moto to your friends, cousins, colleagues and neighbors, and stopping them from spending money on Spamsung’s cr@p in this price range. And LG’s. And Sony’s. 😀
