Xiaomi Redmi 3S Plus is a refresh of the four month old 3s.
Alright, we get it. Xiaomi wants to copy Samsung by releasing smartphone after smartphone. But it would be much better if they’re going to name them a little differently, right? Samsung may have a lot of Galaxy handsets but they’re distinguished by their name.
The Xiaomi Redmi 3S Plus is almost exactly like the Redmi 3S from four months ago, except with very little upgrades. While it’s a bit acceptable to add a Plus to the name, it’s common practice to only use the ‘Plus’ tag for larger devices. And this time, it’s of the same size.
The Xiaomi Redmi 3S Plus is offline exclusive offer though, which means it will not be sold online. It has been updated to base Android 6.0 Marshmallow but it still has the familiar MIUI on top.
