Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro open sale starts

After all that waiting or giving up on the Redmi Note 5 Pro, fans can now purchase the smartphone from online retailer, Flipkart or at mi.com without waiting for weeks for the next flash sale.

Priced at Rs 14,999 for the base 4 GB RAM + 64 GB storage base variant, the Xiaomi Redmi Note 5 Pro, literally broke the budget segment at launch offering great performance not just with its Snapdragon 636 SoC, or 6 GB RAM variant, but also its AI-enabled camera, that still performs better than newcomers in its segment. Both the 4 GB RAM and 6 GB RAM models will now be available on open sale and in blue, black, gold and Rose Gold finishes.

But the competition has caught up and Xiaomi’s own Android One-powered Mi A2 smartphone comes quite close to cannibalising the sales of the Redmi Note 5 Pro. But since the 5 Pro is now on an open sale, only those who cannot do without stock Android will end up waiting for Mi A2 flash sales as the rest now have a worthy option that’s always available for purchase.
