The Xiaomi Redmi Y1 is a stylish smartphone loaded with great specifications inside out. You can save a good amount of songs, movies and videos as a massive storage is present under the hood. The addition of a front flash makes the device great for low light video calling. The two good quality cameras, at both ends, capture outstanding photos and record high-resolution videos. You can play heavy games as well as do multitasking without much lags as the powerful configuration comes to the fore. However, a better battery backup would have been a blessing in disguise for the users buying it.

Nov 16 2017 By Swapnil MathurIn our time with the Xiaomi Redmi Y1, the question of why someone would want to buy this phone popped up a number of times. Besides what the competition has to offer, Xiaomi itself has the Redmi 4, available for the same price, offering the same specification set, but in a metal body. It is a slightly smaller form factor (5-inch) with the same 720p display as the Y1. The Redmi 4 also offers a larger 4,000mAh battery in comparison to the 3,080mAh battery on the Y1. Interestingly, even though the two phones may be incredibly similar, they would ideally appeal to very different audiences. The Y1 is squarely aimed at people who put the selfie experience before most other things. For those who prefer a metal built phone, the Redmi 4 may be a better option, albeit with a smaller screen. Performance wise, both phones are on par in terms of their hardware, but it’s the feature set that varies. Having said that, for Rs 8,999, you finally get a Xiaomi smartphone which plays the selfie game well. If you ever felt that the OPPO or Vivo`s portfolio of devices were out of your budget, there’s now a viable option even in the sub-Rs 10K price range.
