Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime smartphone was launched in August 2016 in India. This latest Android Smartphone from Xiaomi comes with high end feature like 720p display, 3GB RAM and a 13 mega pixel primary camera at very low price. Though Redmi Note 3 offers little more high resolution display and improved processor but Redmi 3S Prime is good and suitable of people who don’t need much of multitasking and high end entertainment but more of productivity and with a decent display. The Lenovo Vibe K5 Plus, Asus Zenfone Max and Samsung Galaxy On 7 are some mobiles in close comparison with Redmi 3S Prime but Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime smartphone has standout feature of good battery life and new quick fingerprint recognition system.

  Besides the improved display and processor Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime offers a expandable memory which can be expanded to 256 GB, dual SIM feature that can support both Micro and Nano SIM type. But Xiaomi Redmi 3S Prime has Non-removable Li-Ion 4100 mAh battery and no gorilla glass on display but instead provides an equivalent strengthened glass that also prevent scratches.
