XIAOMI REDMI NOTE - THE BIG REVIEW

Xiaomi is back. The company which blew up minds with the sales of Redmi 1S and Mi3 has launched another splendid smartphone, Xiaomi Redmi Note. Let’s have a look at the smartphone and it’s specifications.

PROCESSOR

Xiaomi Redmi Note has a MTK 8-core processor with a speed of 1.7GHz. It provides 78% higher processing performance than Quad-core MT6589T. Cortex-A7 architecture individually allocates tasks to each core, reducing power usage and heat. Heavy graphic games and apps run smoothly. Also it has a Mali-450 GPU  for better graphics performance.

DISPLAY

Redmi Note includes a stunning 5.5” HD IPS display. Games, ebooks, and videos, are vibrant, clear, and bigger than ever. The 178° in-plane switching (IPS) technology delivers stunning colour consistency from almost any angle. Images are also least affected by glare.

Redmi Note

CAMERA

It features a 13MP rear facing camera and 5MP front facing camera for selfie addicts. A 28 mm wide-angle lens lets you capture more with each shot. Redmi's ƒ/2.2 aperture and 28mm wide angle lens let you focus in on objects in the foreground of your shot, while softly blurring objects in the background. Shooting photos from this smartphone will be a photographer’s delight.

ANDROID

This dual SIM smartphone features the older Android 4.2 Jelly bean OS with MIUI which comes as a huge surprise. However an update should be provided soon.

MEMORY

Redmi Note has 2GB RAM and an internal storage of8GB. The storage can be extended up to 32GB via a microSD card.

BATTERY

The smartphone has a 3100 mAh battery which is quite optimum for its large 5.5” HD screen. It is also coupled with Xiaomi’s latest power management technologies.

PRICE

This is the most interesting feature. Xiaomi Redmi Note is priced at Rs. 8,999/- and Xiaomi Redmi Note 4G has a price of Rs. 9,999/- It is available exclusively available at Flipkart from 1^st December.

You should not give another thought. With this launch, Xiaomi has a taken a giant leap in the segment of budget smartphones. Always recommended for everyone from every walk of life. Clearly one of the best smartphones of 2014.

We have learnt to confidently buy products without the touch and feel aspect bothering us, we aren’t wary of making online payments and most importantly we have started trusting these online sites The market is grueling now. Let’s have a look at the steps how to proceed to online shopping

Step 1 : Research and Decide

Do an online search for the desired product. That's the first step for how to shop online. I also recommend doing research on the store or shopping site as well. 

Step 2 : Compare Prices

Compare the prices and features and shipping conveniences offered from several sites. Make notes. The internet is a Comparison shopper's paradise. There's so much to choose from! But you have this advantage - you can take all the time you need to choose.

Step 3 : Decide the website you want to buy from

While doing this, check all the details of the website, the owners, the headquarters, site reviews, etc.

Step 4 : Look out at the security options

Make sure the shopping site's shopping system is secure, and offers the payment method you can or want to use. At the very least, read the "Terms of Service" and decide if you are ready to complete the transaction. Always check the ’https’ server.

Step 5 : Create an account on the site and log in

Step 6 : Add products to your cart

Carefully select the items from the seller and them to your cart. Beware, there are many sellers selling the same item but at different prices. carefully check each item for accuracy, and the shipping charges, if any. If the total comes to more than you planned to spend, you can click "remove" to get items out of the cart.

Step 7 : Proceed to pay and Place the order

Fill out the form with your name, email, mailing address (if required), and your payment card type and number, etc. Click the last button (Place order). Payment can be made via many modes depending on the website. Most prefer CASH ON DELIVERY (COD) as it is the safest option as you will pay the money after receiving the product. Track the shipment as needed.

Step 8 : Receive the product

The ordered goods will be delivered within the stipulated time period. Receive it, collect the product. Use it to the best possible way.

               At first your shopping experiences sometimes will take days, and then hours, as you carefully move from step to step. With time, you will have much more confidence in digital shopping and will become a smart, confident Power Shopper.
