Redmi, or Hongmi is a reference to its Chinese name 红米 meaning red rice.
If you have not already heard, Redmi have been selling like hotcakes in China, Hong Kong, Taiwan and now Singapore, it's first venture outside China.
When I first learn that Redmi is a China phone, the first question I asked myself is "will it explode"?
All that caution is thrown out of the window when I'm reminded that iPhone is also made in China. Some of Redmi's components are made in FOXCONN, the same factory that assembles iPhones.

To be honest, I do not know much about phones. I know nothing about MIUI or Snapdragon and I can't tell WDCMA apart from GSM.
All I knew is, this phone is a bargain at SGD169!
