Xiaomi Mi Play hit the shelves today for 1099 yuan ($160) with one-year free internet access

Yesterday, Chinese manufacturing giant, Xiaomi, released what would be its last smartphone for 2018 – Xiaomi Mi Play. This smartphone can be best described as a high-end entry-level device and it comes with a 1099 yuan ($160). Available in dream blue, gold, and black colour options, the Xiaomi Mi Play is now available on the Mi Mall. It is also available on a couple of popular online stores that ships globally.

From the official introduction, the Xiaomi Mi Play comes with a one year of free Internet access but this is probably limited to Chinese users. Specifically, this smartphone offers 10GB of high-speed internet access every month. With this, you no longer have to worry about traffic problems when playing games, listening to music, online dramas, and other internet activities.

The Xiaomi Mi Play comes with a high-value design. It is the first ever Xiaomi phone to use a water drop screen with a 5.84-inch display size although the body is comparable to a traditional 5.1-inch phone. With this compatibility, one-handed operation is completely seamless. Under the hood, we have a MediaTek Helio P35 processor coupled with 4GB of RAM and 64GB of internal storage. In the camera department, we have a front-facing 8MP camera which supports face unlock as well as a background blur. On the rear, the Xiaomi Mi Play comes with a 12MP+2MP AI dual-camera, which also supports AI portrait mode, background blur, multi-frame noise reduction, and automatic HDR function. The lights of this smartphone are kept on by a built-in 3000 mAh battery.
