Gizchina News of the week
The WCDMA version of the Xiaomi Redmi 1S passed through the Tenaa website yesterday afternoon, allowing Xiaomi to sell the phone to customers inside of China at around the same time as the Xiaomi Festival on April 9th. This is also the version of the Xiaomi Redmi 1S which Xiaomi will likely officially launch in Taiwan, HongKong and Singapore and resellers such as Xiaomi World will sell else where.
Pricing in China is expected to be around 799 Yuan for the 1S, international prices should be around $210.
Once this starts selling internationally the Redmi 1 / Hong Mi 1 will likely walk into the history books….
