In recent weeks there have been many rumors about the hypothetical Xiaomi-branded smartphones that have appeared several times on the well-known Chinese certification body TENAA site, in which only an update of the codenames has been seen, while at the hardware (and aesthetic) level there has been no substantial change.
- TENAA certifies two new Xiaomi smartphones, probably the Redmi series
- Three Xiaomi devices visit TENAA
A few minutes ago, the long silence on the part of the company was interrupted and we can finally get to know this new device belonging to the Redmi (compact) series, that is the Xiaomi Redmi 3S. Let's see immediately what its technical specifications are and, consequently, what differentiates it from its brothers Redmi 3 and Redmi 3 Pro.
- Display from 5 "IPS HD inches (1280 x 720 pixel);
- Qualcomm Snapdragon 430 octa-core CPU (4 core from 1,2 GHz and 4 core from 1,5 GHz, all A53) to 64 bit and Adreno 505 GPU;
- 2 GB or 3 GB (LPDDR3) of RAM memory;
- 16 GB (eMMC 5.0) or 32 GB (eMMC 5.1) of internal memory expandable via micro-SD up to 128 GB;
- 13 MP rear camera with PDAF (focus on only 0,1 seconds), single flash LED and focal opening f / 2.0;
- Front 5 MP Camera with Focal Point f / 2.2;
- Fingerprint Sensor (back cover);
- Hybrid Dual-SIM (nano + micro SIM or nano + micro-SD);
- 4G LTE, Wi-Fi 802.11 b / g / n, Bluetooth 4.1, GPS and GLONASS;
- Dimensions: 139,3 x 69,6 x 8,5 mm;
- Battery from 4100 mAh;

Aesthetically speaking, it incorporates in all respects the style seen in the Xiaomi Redmi 3 Pro (absent the rhomboid texture) but the real big difference compared to the two previous variants lies in the processor used that passes from a Snapdragon 616 to one Snapdragon 430 (which also affects VoLTE support). Finally, it will be available in the same colors as the two previous variants (gold, dark gray and silver) at a price of 699 Yuan (at the exchange rate, poco more than 94 €) for the version from 2 / 16 GB and 899 Yuan (at the exchange rate, poco more than 121 €) for the version from 3 / 32 GB, with availability to purchase in China from 16 June (afternoon).
